jects, stands out prominently in this year’s exhibi-
tion. Excellent compositions made from life
studies are contributed by Miss C. E. Martin,
Miss C. Jackson, Miss C. N. Thorburn, and A. R.
Martin. Miss M. Collen’s low-relief “ altar panel ”
won the first prize in this competition; and for a
“ drinking fountain ” Miss C. A. Walker and Miss
R. D. Carver took first and second prizes. Model-
ling from the cast has produced good results in the
term’s work of Miss Ruth Bare, H. Anderson,
T. Shaw, and Miss F. G. Craine. Drawing and
painting from life does not show any very marked
success this year, the foremost students in this
branch being Miss C. N. Thorburn, G. W. Harris,
and H. Stabler, while there are some notably good
posters, book covers, and title-pages, by Miss
C. A. Walker, Miss M. Collens, Miss Phoebe
McLeish, and Miss H. M. Crossfield.
Praise must be awarded to Miss C. Gwatkin
for great industry and much skilful design in
several of the handicrafts, wherein she shows much
promise. The needlework of Miss P. McLeish and
Miss S. G. Dowie, and the stained glass executed
by T. W. French, deserve also to be noticed.
W. T. Pavitt has worked a gracefully-designed
clock case in beaten copper. The other metal work
which attracts attention is a clever grille panel by
W. J. B'ackburn, and a grotesque door-knocker
by A. Pettigrew, both in wrought-iron. The
chief contributors to the display of enamels
are L. G. Phipps, C. E. Thompson, and W.
Fazakerly. The class, though very recently
formed under the instruction of Miss L. Day, has
already attained some very excellent results, and is
decidedly improving.

The “ Nihon-Gwaka'i ” is a society of painters
analogous to our European artistic associations,

its members, each of whom, while preserving his
own artistic personality, is closely concerned in the
