Before doing any more Baking, stop here to take care of the THE SMITH-BOYLSTON SCHOOL OF INDUSTRIAL ARTS Clayton and Rabun county con siders themselves fortunate in being chosen as the home of the new ‘‘Art Colony” which has been established, this summer, at the Earl House. The school is in the nature of summer school in Industrial Arts and combines the advan tages of a beautiful and facinat ing study with the benefits to be derived from a month spent in this wonderfully healthful and invigorating climate. Work done in this school is ac credited in the public school-sys tem of Atlanta, and the course of study is planned for the teach ers who must give instructions in art. The courses are thorough ly practical, and are arranged to meet the needs of teachers and supervisors of average school room equipment. Here art is correlated with all the studies in the curriculum, giving definite and valuable help in visualiza tion. There are two courses, one for teachers of primary grades, and the other for teachers for gram mar grade. They include the best methods to be used in the public schools. Among a num ber of the fascinating problems bookbinding, basketry, clay mod eling, costume design, lettering, poster making, decorating, de signing and construmtiod- The directors are Miss- Char lotte G. Smith and Miss Elese R. Boylston, who are Supervisors of Art, in Atlanta. Both are es pecially/Well equipded to teach these subjects, having studied in the finest art schools in the country. Georgia, and especially Clay ton and Rabun county, should be proud of this new enterprise as it shows quite a forward step in the advancement of art in the south, and because of *the fact there is only one other school of its kind in the United States, that of the Berkshire Summer School of A'rt, in western Mass. The school is not only designed for the, benefit of the Atlanta teachers but for any who may wish to take advantage of the opportunities offered for the special training. The ladies in charge would be especially glad to have the Rabun countv teach ers with fhein, as well as those of Atlanta. .Thursday, .July 10th will be “Open House Day” at the Studio of the school, at the Earl House and visitors will be admitted from 3 to 6 o’clock. Let us extend a hearty wel come to the Smith-Boylston School of Industrial Arts, and as many as possible should take advantage of the opportunity to attend the school. REV. R. P.
