A SAFETY SUGGESTION
Have you ever stepped on your
own untied shoelace and taken
a tumble? That’s what can
happen to your child when
shoelaces are not tied securely.
Youngsters run and play hard
and they don’t think about
shoelaces being untied. Get in
the habit of using a double knot
to prevent an untied shoelace
that can cause a fall. Teach
children as’ soon as they are
able to learn to tie shoelace
knots correctly.

The Art Group of the Dallas
Woman’s Club enjoyed its first
open-air class on Wednesday under
the supervision of Niccolo Cortiglia,
well-known Wyoming Valley artist.
The grounds that encircle Mrs.
Walter Elston’s attractive country
home with lovely old shade trees,
flower beds and rock-garden of-
fered the perfect setting for the
class. :
Scattered about in the cool
shade in this garden-spot, students
sat before their easels and captured
in pastels and oils some of the
summer beauty.
It is, indeed, unfortunate that all
members of the class cannot attend
the open-air sessions, but several
in this Art Group are professional
women who cannot take advantage
of the daytime classes and who
must be content with the evening
schedule.
In the Art Division of the Dallas
Woman's Club are a few finished
artists, several who are well ad-
vanced in pastels and oils and, of
course, many are beginners.
In the present group under the
chairmanship of Mrs. Harry Goer-
inger, Jr., are: Mrs. Robert Bach-
man, Mrs. Bart Collett, Mrs. Walter
Elston, Mrs. D. Willard Evans,
Mrs. George Flack, Mrs. J. Robert
Graves, secretary; Mrs. Wesley
Himmler,
David Jones, Mrs. Prentice Lacy,
Mrs. Charles Mannear, Mrs. Byron
Mitchell, Mrs. Ralph Postorive, Mrs.
Edward Ratcliffe, treasurer; Mrs.
William Reniska, Mrs. V. A. Shin-
dell, Mrs. Robert Weaver and Mrs.
Clarence Woodruff.
It is expected that July and
August will raise havoc with the
usual schedule, but certain mem-
bers of the Art Class have ex-
pressed a desire for the continued
supervision of Art Director Niccolo
Cortiglia once or twice each month.
Fortunately, Mr. Cortiglia has
moved into his summer residence
at Beaumont and expects to con-
tinue his work with the art class
over in that vicinity.
