Title

Mundelein students in art and history paint a map of the war

Description

Four Mundelein students in floral smocks prepare paint and apply it to a large map, with the Eastern hemisphere in the center and the Western hemisphere shown twice, on the right and left sides of the map. The image appears with the headline: "'I'll Daub A Little Britain on My Brush...'"
The caption below reads:
"...says Ruthe Bransfield (third from left) preparatory to painting Australia on the new map planned, drawn, and painted by art and history students, to artists Meta Shifris, (left to right) Dorothy Clark, and Mary Jane Harvey. The map, which is soon to be put up on the wall opposite the tea-room, is being done in oils, so that the boundaries may be changed weekly as the balance of power shifts."
