Peggy Wilber The Current Roost exhibition of children’s -art, organized by new _ Art Gallery Chairman Grace Sei- berling, ‘65, consists of work lent by two local teachers, Mrs. Elsa Cantor, and Mrs, Shirley Tassen- court. Mrs. Cantor has taught at Rose’ Valley School and Oak Lane Country Day School, both pro- gressive elementary ‘schools. and ~ at the Temple University Reme- dial. Reading Clinic. Mrs. Tassen- court is presently .a--teacher at “Rose Valley. The works are done by students from grades one through six, and many are highly original and re- _freshing. All are titled by the artists. They are especially inter- esting in their reflection. of the teacher’s cher’s approach to the teaching \Cam ampusEvents| y April 24 and Saturday April 25 .

Mrs. Tassencourt believes ‘that-‘**If you want to draw out, that is educate, a child’s base of com-: munication, you awaken awareness of texture and form as well as color.’’ Second grader Suzanne Tassen- court’s wooden face with raised features attests to this, as does Sara Jackson’s ‘¢Mud Painting,’ a more unusual approach to texture in which a floral design in poster paint is applied over a thin coat~ of mud. Mrs. Tassencourt, also ad- vocates the use of lines toexpress conflict and unity -- sixth grader Robbie Lippencott’s ‘*Bowling,’’ the representation of a bowler in motion, resembling an open shutter camera exposure, employs this approach most dynamically, as does Amy Willis’ ‘‘Head,’’ the representation of aface from three angles by the use of overlapping lines.

Dr. Sittler, using the specific problem of the doctrine of grace, defined the labor of the theolo- gian. He described him as working from and in_ the ‘substance and momentum of a tradition. As the world changes and with it its facts and theories and the images and vocabulary used to explain them, so must the theologian re- interpret or “rehabilitate” tra- ditional doctrine“in terms relevant to the changing world. Dr. Sittler noted that ‘‘grace’’ is one of the most comprehensive terms in theology. In Christianity, it is generally defined as ‘‘the will and disposition of God towards His creation.’”? Using the. illustration of St. Augustine’s explanation of grace, which was accepted through : the nineteenth century, Dr. Sittler . described the problem encountered by the modern theologian and how " he re-interpreted the radtadaiosk in modern terms. The Augustinian theory is too 3 Substantial to relate to the present — described as a fgrce which acts aggressively on man, arising from a source both preceding and sep- arate from him. Man today un- derstands himself and the world in relational and operational, rather than substantial, terms. Dr. Sittler described man’s uni- que position in the modern world as operational: and powerful. He can now see nature as ‘‘pathe- tically open to his abuse.’’ The possibility arises as man concept of the Ipfee witch is recognizes the. fact that, although - he, may now destroy the world -as‘ he knows it, as the same time, he is..an inseparable part of that world and would thus’ destroy him- self, Secondly, the possibility of believing in and. obtaining grace rests. with the degree to which map realizes this relationship and heace realizes that first, a self alone is no self at all, and second, that his selfhood is thus a func- tioh of his existence with vom s mrs e Classified Ads .
