Washingtons public schools have
long included the teaching of art
as an integral part of their cur
riculums. Residents who graduated
from high school a quarter century
ago or earlier can doubtless remem-
Der their weekly drawing lesson y
in which they labored over crayon
sketches of jug and a couple OF
apples or something similar. To-day
art plays a far more important
role. as one can see at the biennial
exhibition of pupils work now Oc-
cupylng the foyer Of the National
Museum.
"A visual presentation of the OBJ
jectives of art teaching" is the sub
title of the exhibition and it is a
valid description. The teachers are
not attempting to make professional
artists of these thousands of pupils:
they are obviously endeavoring to
utilize art as an important factor
in education. for emotional develop
ment and self-expression, to sharpen
observation, to heighten interest in
other subjects, and to enrich the
lives and cultural backgrounds of
their students
The exhibition. on view through
out November, is decidedly worth
seeing, whether one studies it with
the serious interest of parents in
the way the children are using their
school hours, or whether one goes
for the pleasure of seeing familiar
things through fresh young visions.
Large, simple paintings and draw
ings by the little ones in kinder
garten and the first three grades
depict objects of their environ
ment-roosters pet rabbits eating
carrots, bowls of fruit, etc. And
they also paint visions as though
they were quite concrete-the Ma
donna and Child in an unorthodox
striped robe, for instance, and sing
ing angels clad in long white gowns,
with notes of music floating above
their heads.

some concern as to what direction
the selection of music should take.
Considering the two forts to offer
about the best cross-section of
American soldiers in the country,
it has been decided to submit to

Audience to Determine.
Recreation officers and chaplains
will supervise the concerts and a
soldier with good musical back
ground will choose the programs.
If the soldier audience is bored by
the master recordings and prefers
what it gets out of a juke-box, a
juke-box will be provided. If there
is a definite leaning toward any
particular style or branch of the
better music, the American soldier
will be given all he can consume
But the responsibility for the type
OF music to be used for sustaining
Army morale lies heavily on the SOL

one of the best methods. Second
grade children had an opportunity
to do so in their large painting
interpreting activities in the school
grounds. They painted themselves
carrying out such legends as We
get off bikes when We enter the
grounds; We skate on the circle; We
keep the garden beautiful, and keep
off terraces and banks: We play
nicely back of the building"
How the child becomes acquaint-
ed with his community through
first-hand experiences, and how he
uses these experiences in his art
expression, is illustrated by a group
of colored ravon sketches tby chill
dren of grades 4, and g. of local
landmarks. Crude and simple
though these drawings are, no one
could possibly mistake the Identities
of their subjects.
Through art teaching, children
discover how other people live,
and their conceptions are vivid and
concrete. A sixth grade groups
mural, Ellis Island" is particularly
delightful.
Many historic periods come alive
to the children who study them
with the aid Of art. One group, for
instance, thrilled over the medieval
period and its stained-glass WIN
dows, made a window from colored
celophane. Glass trips to the Cor
coran Gallery, where two real
stained glass windows can be seen
at close range, and individual trips
to the Washington Cathedral ac-
quainted them with the essential
features of colored windows.
Real talent is discernible in some
of the work shown by students in
the last high school years-oil paint
ings. wood carvings, glazed pottery
figures, interior decorations, limo
leum block printed textiles and
many other types of work. Deco
rators might we'll covet the wall
hanging printed with jungle de-
sign that includes palm trees. an

gagged in various activities. as well
as another hanging with a gay

Water Color Display

A special exhibition of water colors
by Georgina Klitgaard is being held
at the Corcoran Gallery Of Art
through the courtesy Of the Rehn
Galleries, New York. She is a
painter, etcher and teacher. After
graduating from Barnard College,
she studied at the National Academy
of Design, New York, and travelled
extensively in Europe. In recent
years she has executed murals for
the post Offices at Goshen and
Poughkeepsie. N. Y. Her home is
at Woodstock, N. Y, and she con-
ducts field and studio classes at
nearby Bearsville and at more dis
tant Durham, NJ c.
Her water colors are fresh and
skillful, and those of flowers have
especial merit. but her color is in
clined to be thin and pale, and her
choice of subjects not always appeal
ing. For instance, in her pictures
of buildings at Chapel Hill belong
ing to the University Of North Caro-
lima, she completely misses the at
mosphere of intimacy and lowell
ness with which they are commonly
| enveloped
