W. 8. Luther, of Clearfield county,
was here this week in attendance on
the Teachers' Institute. He addressed
the Institute in a very interesting and
instructive lecture on drawing. Mr.
Luther, by hard work, aided by a
natural gift for drawing, has placed
himself in the front rank of those
whose skill with pen and pencil is
acknowledged on all hands. His work
to be appreciated, must be seen, and
when seen all exclaim, how beautiful,
hew perfect! A master among the
masters of this delicate art, he is withal
a gentleman whom it is a pleasure to
meet.
