Poster woik of eighth grade pupils
of the La Grande schools is now on
exhibition at the public library. '
Aboilt sixty posters designed under
the supervision of Miss Blanche Clark,
who is in charge of art work in the
pqblic schools, hav been arranged for
examination by parents and the gen
eial public. Each ono is an original
working out cf an ornamental library
notice, for use in a : public library
building. Most of the wording was
supplied to the students, but the treat
ment is their own, and shows much in
dividuality. The work is arranged to
show the posters from each building
separately.
The classes which made the posters
were conducted at the Central school
by Miss Janet Jones; in Greenwood by
Miss Edith Wilson, and in the Riveria
building by Miss Edith Bork. Among
the names of the children who design
ed the posters may be noticed many
who are frequent patrons of the li
brary. The conception of many of the
designs show a remarkably keen ap
preciation of the meaning and atmo
sphere of the public library. The
wording of the signs include siirh no
