CORRESPONDENCE.
ARTS AND CRAFTS EXHIBITION, j
(To the Editor)
Sir—Through the enthusiasm and push and go of Inspector Irwin, the assistance of teachers, and the kindness of the Soldiers’ Hall authorities, there is being displayed this afternoon and evening in the Soldiers’ Hall, exhibits of handwork from English and New Zealand primary schools, Convent and State.
There can be seen work done by school-children, ranging from wood-
engraving (not only the blocks, bufc the pictures engraved from them with ink made by the pupils), to what can I say? slippers, braces, etc. etc. It is hoped that every one, parents, prospective parents, and mere electors, will make a point of visiting this display this evening so as to gain an informed opinion of what artful craftsmen are being trained in the primary schools and to what extent vocational training can be carried there. While admission is free, there is no collection, a: Yours'‘truly, R • WILD.
