heim, Mergentheim, Tübingen, Neresheim, Aethaussen, Elingen, 
Blaubeuren, Waldsee, Herbertingen, Spaichingen, and Horb were 
likewise represented by specimens worthy of notice. 
The “ Women’s Work-School” of Reutlingen exhibited very 
tasty needlework, as well as very pretty drawings. Instruction 
in drawing and coloring in this institution is intended to lead the 
pupils, by successive stages, to the invention and execution of 
tasty designs for the various branches of female handiwork; the 
construction of geometrical plane flgures and bodies is also taught. 
The “ School for Inferior Decorators ” (painters) of Reutlingen 
likewise exhibited some specimens by its, pupils, which, however 
lcft much to be desired in regard to taste ; the same may be said 
of the designs of the Weaving School of Reutlingen, which were 
unsatisfactory both in color and in forms. The motives of the 
Weaving School at Heidenheim were somewhat lighter and more 
graceful. 1 
Stuttgart, with its higher schools, and as the central point of 
art-industrial education, naturally had also more important results 
i The Industrial Improvement Schools of Wurternburg. — It ia very interesting 
to note tlie population of tbe various towns and villages, in wliicli tlie schools 
spokeu of by Prof. Langt are located. Some of tliem are so small tliat tliey 
cannot be found in any “ Gazetteer” or geograpbical band-book. Tbe follow- 
ing Statistical table is made up from Ilitter's “ Geograpbiscb-Statistiscbes 
Lexikon,” Otb edition, 1874. Wbere no figures are given, tbe population could 
not be learned.
