PICTURE TO SCHOOL
Mr. J. E. Otis, of Chicago, who has
a fine f.:um and summer home W\)st
of Harbor Springs, h.as presented the
Iiarbo,. Springs High School with a
beautiful oil painting. This excellent
s pirit of generosity on the par t of Mr
Otis is certa inly apprecilted by t he
s tudents, patrons, and t each ers of
the Harbor S prings school s.
The pictul'e is one would have
cost the Board of Elducati on seven!
hundr ed dollars had it been purchas-
ecl.
In a letter to Superintendent Ba il-
ey, M1. Oti s describes the picture as
follows: "This picture I s one of De
Ha vens best productions. It is a
scene in the Adirond.1cks Mountains;
a country qui te simila r to Emmet
County. T.h:e brillia nt a ut umn color-
ing is well known t o t hose who at-
t ern:! t h e Harbor Springs High
School.
I am convinced that the influencP
of .good works of a r t h:tve a most
benefi cial effect on the young mind
a nd I t rust that ot hers may follow
my example a nd a dd to the treasut
es of your ve!y praiseworthy organi-
,;ation. With per sona l r egar ds, I
am, very t rul y yours. Signed, J . E.
Otis."
This is the t hird gift, in tpe way
