This book is the first re

books, which will come to the
library as they are published.
Mr. Bacon stated that the new
set of encyclopedia have been
published in Italian and Eng

A demonstration of portrait
technique was given by Rob
ert Onstad, Ashland Junior
High schol art instructor. Mr.
Onstad began his demonstra
tion by showing members a
number of charcoal drawings,
which he believes are neces
sary to the beginning of a
portrait. The instructor picked
a model, Mrs. Keith Francis,
from the listening group and
using a broad line crayon,
demonstrated his tcchneque
of making the preparatory
sketches. Mr. Onstad said that
if he should make 20 sketches
of the model, that each one
would be different. The dem
onstrator asked Don Staley to
pose for a portrait sketch
which he executed in casein
on an ait board surface.
