SCHOOL OF ART AND DESIGN.

PROFESSOR PETER ROOS.

This School is to subserve a two-fold purpose. 1. It affords to the students of the several colleges the opportunity to acquire such a knowledge of free-hand drawing as their chosen courses may require. 2. It offers to such as have a talent or taste for art the best facilities for pursuing studies in industrial designing or other branches of fine art. Schools of design, in Eurooe and in this country, have been found important aids to the higher manufactures, adding to the beauty of fabrics and to the skill and taste of workmen. The increased interest in the decorative arts and in the manufactures which they require has added new importance to the study of drawing and designing. It is the purpose to keep this school of design abreast with the best movements in this direction.

COURSE OF INSTRUCTION.

Students not seeking a professional training may yet avail themselves of the two years' course in industrial art. Any person of ordinary ability who faithfully completes this course will be qualified to teach drawing and designing in public schools, or enter professions with great advantage in the various branches of industry, where artistic skill and taste are indispensible to success.
