It is the outcome of the untutored mind and the deft fingers of natural ability. {a our Wigwam shows this plainly. The Navajo Indian Rugs are woven on the crodest looms, the designs built up from the savage fancy. Nature alon= is employed as a model; the sky and sun, mountains and meadow, the forest and the plains alone suggest to the barbaric artist. The same with the quaint pottery of the Pueblo Indinns. In their own crude way the birds of the air are pictured, the beasts of the forest and the flowers are all portrayed. Close inspection of the articles displayed shows this wonderful phenomena. Nature surrounds the whole array. ‘Third Goor. Every article Woodward & Lothrop. SCHOOL TRUSTEES Guardians of Public Education Hold Business Meeting, THE PROMOTIONS AND TRANSFERS a Disapproval of Prize Contest in Northeast Schools. sees CERTIFICATES AWARDED wees The board of trustces of the public schools held its regular monthly meeting at the Franklin building last evening. All the trustees were present, as follows: Messrs. Whelp:ey (in the chair), Barnard, Harries, Hazen. Wilson, Spear, Brown, Bruce and Rickardcon, Mrs. Tullock aad Mrs. Terrell. Superintendents Powell and Cock were also in atterdance. Mr. Falck acted as secretary, as usual. A cormunication was read from the District Commissioners to ihe effect that the new schcol honse at the ccrner of ist and Quincy streets northeast, had been named the “Eckirgton.” The resignations, respectively, of Miss S. B. McNantz, teacher of the seventh grade in third division, and J. H. Stickney, teacher in Western High School, were read and accepted. Mr. Wm. J. Frizzell and other members of a committee, representing the Northeast Washington Citizens’ Association, wrote lo the board in regard to the purpose of that association to donate a gold medal as a prize to the pupils of the eighth grade of the public schools in Northeast Wash- ington tor the best essay on the subject of the dangers of grade crossings by rail- it Was stated that the prize would be awarded at a public ineeting with ap- propriate exercises, Mr. Whelpley, being asked as to the pre- cedents in the case, said that there had been somewhat similar instanc the past, but none where the compe was restricted to one locality, or where it was mide the occasion of public presentation. Mr. Wilson said ke thought they ought to shut down on the proposed “public pre- sentation.” Mr. Barnard approved of the general scheme, end suggested that the details of the arrargements for the pre- sentation be left to the discretion of the superintendent. The Motive Bad. Mr. Spear was opposed to the proposed presentation as establishing a bad prece- dent. The motive of the competition a:nong the school children was a bad one, he said, and was calculated to do more mischief than good. To his mind the plan was detri- mental to the best interests of the schools. Mr. Richardson joined with Mr. Spear in his objections, and he was further opposed to it because of the possible discrimination it involved against the pupils of the colored schools The chair the ing the requ petition to put the questicn of grant- ted permission for the com- vote, and it was negatived by ity. secre read a petition from the teachers of the white and colored schools of the eighth grade, representing that the principals were not jequately compensat- ed for their labors, and asking that theiz salaries be fixed at the uniform rate of He read a petition from teachers of physics n the colored also asking for an increase of Both petitions were referred to the ttee on ways and means. $1,200 per annum. the p chair submitted a large number ot unications he had received from citi favoring the appointment of Prof. T.

Palmer, Pauline Mueden, Emma J. Maloney, Clara M. Up- ten, Virginia Bukey, Bessie L. Yoder, Alice F. Mitenell, Mary A. Zurhorst. Selection of Musical Director. Mr. Brown, from the committee on music, made a report in regard to the selection of 2 musical director for the ninth, teath and eleventh divisions (colored schools). “Some time ago,” said he, “the board of trustees decided that there should be a musical director for our colored school, and that the selection shoul] be made by means of an examination. At the last meet- ing the board further decided to limit the examination to those already teaching music in our schools. This limitation was made for two reasons—first, there was no money for an extra teacher in case there should be reason for one, and, second, it was felt that there was sufficient talent in the present corps from which to select a director. “The music committee, after no little effort, secured three excellent musical ex- perts as examiners—Prof. Herndon Morseil, Miss Katie V. Wilson and Prof. Henry Xander—all of whom were recommended to us by the leading musical people of the city. We feel that we were very fortunate in securing the services of these busy People. “The examination was held Wednesday morning, November 17. The papers were returned to Secretary Falk, who kept them till the music committee met, November 23. On finding that the report of the exam- iners was unanimous in favor of Mrs. Alice Strange Davis, the committee voted to recommend to the board of trustees the appointment of Mrs. Davis as musical director of the colored school of the city.” ittee, and Mr. Harries seconded PR OS It was adopted with- ar ng dissenting voice. thanks was ery the salar ieee i ng Restricting Foot Ball. Mr. Wilson said that while he did not wish to pose as an opponent to the playing of foot ball by the school children, he | thought there should be some restrictions in the matter.— 1 Inquiry developed the fact that ai the | Hl Business High SSch6] thtre had been two injuries during the season and that five | days had beer gsty fat the Western there ; were eight in. involving a loss of j thirty-three days: aed 2 Central there were four cases, through which three days had | been lost, andgthapat the Eastern there were two acclifnisqwhich did not involve any loss of schvol time. He therefore-effered the following resolu- tlor:s bearing on the subject, and they were adopted by the boar: “I. No boy shall become a member of any foot ball team against the wishes of his parent or. gpardian after notification to the principal of the school. “2.
