Youngsters Respond to Beauty;
Find Much Fun IN Paintinq
Bv Betty Grove Smith.

The benefit chairman of the Chill
dren's Art Center is lovely young
woman who lis the mother OF two
small daughters, one 10 and one s,
and who is herself a gifted painter
Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Partridge.
Imaginative and full of under
standing and interest in children,
Mrs. Partridge has a class of IL chill
dren whom she teaches in her own
home. Instead of looking upon the
class as a lesson, the children think
OF it as a party because it's such fun
Once Mrs. Partridge blindfolded
the class and made them each touch
vegetable and then draw a picture
of what they felt. She tries to get
away from the usual humdrum pic
lures that most children draw first
the ever-present tree and house, and
the little girl with curls. She finds
out what the children have been
doing, where they've been and gets
them to show her by drawing a
picture.
Most children are self conscious at
first, she finds. Also, they are SEN
sitive of criticism from their own
friends. No amount of praise from
Mrs. Partridge could Offset the hurt
that one small girl suffered when
her playmate said, Il don't like that.
I think it's silly picture"
The fact that the ages of the chill
dren differ does not affect the prog
ress of the class, Mrs. Partridge says
The little ones keep up. Each child
has his own ideas. They watch Mrs.
Partridge paint and are allowed
freedom in what they want to do
themselves.
AS one of the women most inter-
ested in the Children's Art Center,
Mrs. Partridge paid high tribute to
Mrs Cornelia Yuditsky, who teaches
at the center and does marvellous
job of it.
AS benefit chairman, Mrs. Part
ridge has arranged many successful
benefits for the center, among them
a waltz ball. which was a huge Sue
lcess, and barbecue on her own

place, which every one loved. AS
the former Mary Elizabeth Acker,
Mrs. Partridge went to school and
made her debut in Washington. She
attended Sarah Lawrence College
and studied painting at the Phillips
Gallerey here. She is gifted in
writing, too, and has had several
volumes of verse with her own illus
trations published. She likes sing
ing, plays the piano and has just
finished designing some charming
gay blouses and children's clothes,
which are handpainted in textile
paint.
She feels as do many women who
are mothers of growing children
that the field of art offers much in
the way of stability and interest
and an appreciation of beauty in a
war-torn world. And that now
especially, 1t is worth all the atten-
tion it can get. And the happiness
that these children are getting out
of their instruction and progress
more. than justifies this belieef.
