Catalogue of the Hampton Normal & Agricultural Institute, at Hampton, Virginia, for the academical year .. . so thatin every booth there is a chance to learn something of out-side painting and kalsomining. On the walls of the mainroom is ample space for brick pencilling, stencilling, andother forms of Work : The members of the Trade School paint class are al-lowed to supplement their training by work in the InstitutePaint Shop which is on another part of the grounds. Fromthis shop they are sent out as regular painters to the variousbuildings, some sixty in all, that belong to the Institute,which certainly gives as good an opportunity of applyingtheir trade as could well be found. Enough will be givenin this course to enable the student to become an intelli-gent painter of houses—both inside and outside—and in-struction will be given besides, to a limited extent, in grain-ing, hard-wood finishing, kalsomining and frescoing. The theory of paints, their manufacture and adultera-tion, will be given as time will permit, as well as study inthe mixture and harmony of A CLASS IN MANUAL TRAINING.
