Blue and gold were his favorite colors. Some, of his angels wore robes of blue, starred with gold, some robes of ruby red and other robes of green. The faces of his angels were always radiant. He rarely painted scenes of sorrow or suffering. Fra Angelico painted beautiful pictures on the walls of the convent of San Marco in Florence.

AMERICA CONFRONTED WITH EDUCATIONAL CHALLENGES, DEXTER . "A three-fold challenge of modern education confronts America today, the first to the teachers, second to the etnrloTita suit thfrrl in the. lavmen of America to support the great organization called the public schools, declared Prof.x Walter Dexter, of Earlham college, in his address before the Kiwanis club Thursday. "A challenge confronts the modern teachers which provides that they pick out that which will be most val uable in the advancement of the work which they are in, to build character and personality in man. Prof. Dexter explained that the thing which was most needed in modern society is a group of adults who know what they are doing and who know how to work to the better end: He said "the teachers of America are doing a wonderful job in handling the ever increasing need of higher education. Must Realize Opportunity. "The student is also confronted with a challenge in the educational world, to realize the opporturiy which faces him and that the teachers are of the highest efficiency and that money and better facilities are always at hand. The teachers today pick out the things which develop personality in the student and the student should realize his wonderful opportunity. Indiana is one of the few states which has a very low percentage of waste of the tax money which is paid into the treasury. Only seven percent of the money which is paid into the Indiana state treasury, i3 wasted. This percentage Is low, compared with other states in the union. Interest Will Stimulate "When the-business men become interested in schooling, then education will grow into a greater and more efficient institution. "The challenge which comes to the laymen of America is to see that the money for the schools is spent in the right way and to- really support the wonderful organization called the American public schools."
