INTERNATIONAL TRAVELING ART SCHOOL MOOTED Tom Hall, Noted Artist, Has, Assurance That Painters Will Invade the Rockies Montreal. --Definite promise of an international travelling art school with headquarters to be established in 1932 at Banff, or one of the Bun- galow. Camps in the Canadian Roc- kies, is brought to Montreal by Tom Hall, well-known artist of London, who has completed a tour of the eastern United States where he made arrangements for the inclu- that country. Mr. Hall, who returned to Canada from London a few months ago, having the assurance of a number of his confreres in England that they would join him in exploitation of Canada's scenic' wealth, next year, immediately embarked upon a tour of Canadian and American art centres, and has met with enthusi- astic response to his proposal. With the spade iS already done, insofar as organization is concerned, Mr. Hall now proposes to establish temporary headquarters in Montreal. - The international tra- velling art school will, he thinks, make a very large contribution even- tually towards a better understand- ing between the two continents. The "School" will comprise prob- ably fifty-five well-established ar- tists from France, England, Canada and United States and may include two from Australia. While its ex- pressed intent will be to interpret in oils and other media the Cana- dian Rockies, Mr. Hall anticipates that, by free exchange of ideas among members and the effect that such exchange is bound to have on the various works of the group, that a great stimulus to art will be given to each country represented. Present plans are that the group will gather in Montreal about July | 1, 1932, and make a short tour of Quebec before proceeding west. Mr Hall, himself, has been greatly im pressed by the sketching possibilis ties offered by the Laurentians and the immediate environs of Montreal and is anxious fhat all visitors to th: country be given an opportunity of making at least a short study of this province. CANADA IS RICH IN RAW MATERIAL FOR THE NOVELIST J. B. Priestley Is Impressed With Canadian Scenery From Writer's Stand- point Montreal.--Canada holds a wealth of raw material for the novelist. So much so, in fact, that it makes him "rather wistful." This was the op- inion of J. B. Priestley, British au- thor, who passed through Montreal recently on his return to England. Mr. Priestley had been in the south- ern Pacific fo gather material for another book. He has already written "The Good Companions" and "Angel Pavement," The grandeur and wildness of Ca- 'nadian scenery; particularly on the railway journey through the Rocky Mountains, impressed Mr. Priestley very deeply. He found the people, too, likeable and more interested in good reading than those south of the boundary. Mr. Priestley names Willa Cather as the best' American novelist, de- claring definitely that he believed her to be superior to Sinclair Lewis, recent winner of the Nobel Prize. He spoke highly of the works of Mazo de la Roche, Canadian writ- er, and said that it appeared that a great deal of desultory writing was being done in Canada. The maga- zines and other literary publications he described as "creditable." Teachers in West Want Examinations Pr Edmonton, Alta., June 10.-- Consternation and alarm have been spread among Alberta teach- ers by the decision of the depart- ment of education to cancel ex- aminations in grades 8 and 9 this year, according to J. W. aBrnett, secretary of the Alberta Teach- ers' Ine. "Teachers feel that this step was a leap in the dark' said Mr. Barnett. who represents school teachers in all parts of the province. He added that the ac- Hou was "too drastic" in his opin- on Several "delicate matters were involved and not much: could be said until these have been proper ly considered, he explained. "For one 'matter, Aon Passing of pupils on the t dation solely, a any possible ex- amination, makes the teachers an absolute privy council from whieh there is no appeal. Formerly when teachers' recommendations, were allowed to pass pupils, a pu- pil was always given the right to write a 'written examination 'should the teacher fail to pags him or her," Mr, Barnett said. - Things could be worse. Suppose flies barked like dogs or had bells ; arotind their necks like cows. SIBERRY'S REDUCING PRICE SALE STILL GOING STRONG REMARKABLE VALUES FOR THURSDAY, FRIDAY AND SATURDAY.
