Black Hills to Be Mecca for Tourists This Year _ Fifteen million dollars will be spent in the Black Hills by tourists this summer, it is estimated by a survey based on the growing business of the last few years and the largely multi plied number of requests for informa- tion that are coming in this spring to railroads, newspapers and other sourc es of information. The focusing of the nation's atten tion last summer on the mountain oasis where the President and Mrs. Coolidge spent the warm months is one reason for the increased interest. The low rates made by the Chicago and North Western Railway which make the Black Hills more accessible financially as well as in the matter of hours and miles, is another contribut- ing factor. These rates, it is just an- nounced, will go into effect the first of June. Springfield, Illinois, ranks second of the cities of the United States in the reduction of cost of food stuffs during 1927. 1209 WASHINGTON AVE. th So :: 11447 Start the Spring With a Freshly Painted Car 7 S-- ~~ [INT We are prepared to restore to your car the velvety newness with which it came from the factory.

Aca- demic, solid, with thorough understanding of ana- tomical form, composition and value--or shall we only stress design and color as many think that modern art is? We do both. Even now we are proud of our results. In two months we feel that we have made They are not copying by rule or in an unfeeling manner but they are learning to draw the figure intelligently, sometimes without the model. Our aim is that they should be able to draw, to ex- press themselves and that the drawings should look like the model. But also, they are being taught the new, beautiful solid ideas that are in modern art so that when they enter the world of art, professionally, a few years hence, they may be equipped to fill the need of their time.
