Arts, of which Ruel p. Tolman, him.
self an etcher, is director.
Those who are especially interested
IN the graphic arts, and who love
fine prints. will find these recent ad-
ventures OF well-known and accom-
plished etcher very engaging. They
are aquatints and mezzotints printed
in color, each printing requiring
freshly wiped plate re-inked, and
each print therefore a unique pro-
duction. Also the process of etching
has to be altered to accommodate the
colors employed. some being higher
In key than others, and therefore
requiring deeper or lighter etching.
But all will agree that the results
are we'll worth the trouble, for they
are both skillful and charming.
Will Simmons has specialized in
etchings of animals and occasionally
Of birds. and In his color work he
follows this prediction, adding fish
to the category. No doubt he has
given much study to the wild crea-
lures of wood and field and certainly
he spares no pains to show them
as they are, shy and bold, in their
natural environment.
In the collection now on view one
finds aquatints and mezzotints Of
moose and stays in all their splendor
Of physical well being and lordly pos
session, and interpreted with equal
sympathy in the same media. the
fox, the panther, the wolf and the
bear, to say nothing of the skunk.
Children of the Snow" is a picture
Of two white bear cubs engaged In
boxing match, while the mother
bear looks on with amused COM
placence, half veiled by the snow
filled air. In interesting contrast are
prints of a humming bird seeking
hidden sweet In a few stalks of blos-
soming delphinium, and one of an
eagle soaring upward-"Skyward
Bound" Mr.. Simmons picture Of
swans. especially those with young,
are very appealing, but so also are
those he gives US Of fish leaping high
out Of pools and rapids. In two In
stances he has given himself to the
rendition Of q floral subject-trumpet
creeper and tiger lilies-both very
effective.
Mr.. Simmons was born In Spain of
American parents. His father was
the well-known mural painter, Ed
ward Simmons, represented in the
Library Of Congress by eight lunettes.
"The MUSES." During his boyhood
days he lived abroad, and after at
tending Harvard College, he re-
turned there for specialized study in
art. At present he makes his home
IN the hill country, 5 or more miles
from New Milford, Conn. His studio,
in which he makes and prints his
etched and engraved plates, he built
himself out Of orange boxes, and
finds very satisfactory. In short, he
Is devoted to his art and gets from 1t
utmost pleasure. It is not strange,
therefore, that this feeling finds its
way into his work and gives 1t added
value.

Unexpectedly good, but best of all
was the craft work which attained
to a really high standard.
Accompanying the handicrafts
were numerous small works in sculp-
ture, modelled. not carved, but fully
significant. Least meritorious and
outstanding was the free-hand work
in pictorial art-paintings in oils and
water colors. But they are not,
unique in this particular-the same
malady of untutored free expression
affecting the work done in many
other schools. here. and elsewhere,
because of the so-called progressive
theory that teaching is injurious to
the development of originality. It
IS to be hoped that the craft work
in these schools will be not only con.
tinued, but further emphasized, be-
cause of the promise shown and the
value to be derived by coordination
of hand and brain in creative effort.

FRAULEIN BECOMES
A LINGUIST
Nv ANN JOYCE


She asked to be called just Fraulein,
so that was how she was known IN
the family-this new nursemaid OF
ours.
Unfortunately, her employers did
not understand her language, though
they did appreciate her effective ham
ding of their troublesome offspring.
Fraulein's English vocabulary was
limited to a few stock phrases, but she
did appreciate a good home in a strange
land, even though her wages were not
excessive. SO Fraulein stayed.
You, Jackie" she would command
the young hopeful of the family, come
here to vonstl" And Jackie would come
when a mild request In good English
would have no effect on his stubborn
little spirit.
Good, Fraulein," her mistress said
to her one day as she observed her
porting intently over a book. i am
glad to see you are studying English"
mo" she replied, mot English
French. I become-vat you call him?
Yah, Won lnguist."
Fraulein had discovered that her
mistress knew a smattering Of French
as well as considerable English, and
she rose to the occasion. English she
would learn naturally while living with
English-speaking people, but French
would be difficult alone. Why not COM
btne desire with opportunity?
After Fraulein had been with the
family few months her conversation
was a remarkable combination of Ian

intermingling of them all.
"Bist sick, madame?" she would in
quire If her mistress put her hand to
her head. mop Fatigue? Yah, der
petite frau vas bad fatigue"
Fraulein's mistress must have been
an unusually good-natured frau" or
she could not have put up with her
nursemaid's efforts Even so, there
gales of laughter which Fraulein only
partly understood.
Though Fraulein's wages were not
large, she was treated with more than
usual consideration while learning to
speak English after fashion. She was
devoted to Jack and he to her, and
all seemed well when one day she
brought a newspaper advertisement
under the Help Wanted" column to
her mistress.
Write" she requested. Write pour
me. dis ad must answer"
With. amazement this lady read.
Nurse wanted. Must speak English,

I coarse bunch perennial rye grass,
elymus condensatuS. The purpose
in crossing these two types was to
produce a new type of grass that
would have the perennial habit and
drouth resistant qualities of the rye
grass parent and the succulency,
palatability and high seed production
Of the wheat plant.
Mosida is a winter wheat type de-
velOped by the agronomy department
Of the University of Idaho. The origin
al cross was made at the Colorado
agricultural experiment station be-
tween zo-Mediterranean and Tur-
key in 1916. A small amount OF seed
of this cross was received by the
agronomy department where selec-
ton now called moSida was made in
1924. It's superior characters are win
ter hardness, good strong straw and
high yield.
The rye grass parents is found grow
ing wild under dry land and desert
soil conditions from British Columbia
to southern California. In northern
Idaho. it is found growing in low al
kali soils and on dry rough waste lands.
In southern Idaho 1t is found growing
along the banks of irrigating bitches
and occasionally on desert land
Like all other wild or intergenic
crosses the first generation of plants
failed to set seed. Thus, in order to
perpetuate the hybrid combination the
first generation plants were back
crossed with the pollen from the wheat
parent.
Out of a large number of plants, 48
Of the most outstanding ones were
saved and the seed from each individ
ual was planted in rows three feet
apart, each row being 1856 feet long
At heading time a few outstanding
plants in each row we're covered with
cloth bags forcing the plants to self
fertilize. Part of the seed from each
of the plants was planted in short
rows with a view of eventually estab-
fishing pure lines by progressive annual
plant selections and self-fertilizations.
Some Of the plant selections at this
time appeared to be perennial in
growth habit, while other lines took
after the wheat parent, thus dying
the first year after seeding. This Sit
uation is what one would expect from
a cross between annual and perennial
plants. The seed from all the long
rows was bulked the fall of 1897 and
by virtue of its hybrid nature con-
sisted of many types. This seed was

small lots of seed were sent TO the

In general, the farmers and state ex-
pertinent station workers reported
favorable results from both fall and

cate that all classes of livestock relish
