Blue Donkey O.K. If Child Thinks So London; Nov. 14.--(CP)--If your young son or daughter wants to draw a blue.donkey or a six-legged horse, don't try to put him right. That's the advice of the Minister of Education in a 56-page pamph- let on "Art Education" (HM. Sta- tionery Office, 2s 6d.). "Infants draw and construct from what is in their minds: they do not copy directly," says the booklet, | illustratsd with color plates of art Work by students five to 21 years old. : "Any attempt to make them draw directly from nature or to. copy stylized interpretations of nature merely confuses them and produces results wholly insincere, " .. ./The blue donkey and the six-legged horse are features of a perfectly natural phase of expres- sion and no attempt should be made to force the child to realistic reproduction which can only curb or destroy his' spontaneity." : Don't Interfere From five to seven children should be left without interference beyond stimulus and guidance in use of tools and materials, says the booklet. From seven to 11 they should still be left free to express them- selves as they like, but given op~ portunity to "explore some of the paths travelled by primitive men and women--to experience through experiment the early stages of the traditional crafts, such as weaving, pottery, basketry, the making of simple forms of dwelling or of means of transport." After 11 years of age, art and craft courses should provide out- lets for creative ability, More am- bitious work can be undertaken and children can be taught to de- velop discrimination in design and craftsmanship and receive training in observation... Additional Whitby News On Page 5 Arrived Sunday - A Rodeo is a phenomenon and free-for-all which had its birth as 4 busman's holiday for the hard-working cowboys of the Western Plains. After the round-up, they would gather in the nearest town and exhibit their skills in the hazards of the work-a-day world. As the fame of their abilitiesg spread, many people travelled the breadth of the continent to see these men and women in their bens stunts, It was not long before the demands of eastern- ers, unable to travel to the west, brought road st.ws of the more famous of the western rodeos to the towns and villages of the east. The Cherokee Rodeo, brought to Whitby by the Kinsmen, is one of the best of these road shows: In their native hdunts, the performers are as 'well known as many actors and actresses are known to follow- are known to followers of the mo- vies. Arrival] Drew Crowds Although the show arrived in town Sunday morning without. any advance notice, it was not long be- fore most of the younger fry and a good portion of mere adults had bustled over to the arena for a look at the performers, both two-and- four-legged. - One of the high spots in the pro- gram, according to those who have seen the act, is the work of Ralph Clark of Clarksville, Texas. Ralph is a smart operator with the lariat, and the things he can do make you glad you are not run-away beef. He catches running horses every place a horse could be caught, and cli- maxes his act by jumping through the loop three times, turning a somersault with the rope still going and then catches a running hdrse by the front legs, Ralph won three firsts and two second prizes at the Cheyenne, Wyoming, Stampede' in 1048 against worldwide competitfon, Cowgirls Too 'There will also be cowgirls in ac tion, and you will see Pear] Ham- mons doing a real job of fancy rope spinning, and wielding the 'Aus- tralian bull whip. Also Betty Thom- as of New Mexico will thrill you with trick and fancy riding, and a Canadian lassie, Verna Joe Reun- saller of Saskatoon will risk 'her neck on bucking horses. These are just a few of the 20 odd acts which will Beep you thrill- ed and amused for the entire show. The Cherokee Rodeo Company is on this tour with fifty 'head of stock. You will see Palomino stal- lions, pintos, high jumping horses and bucking horses, The riders will do breath-taking stunts with the big Brahma steers and the clown riders will have you in stitches with their antics on the comic mules brought with . the show. The first show will start at 8.18 tonight at the arena. ; ARENA WHITBY LJ ADMISSION : ADULTS 75: Children 35: ® .
