i got a piece of advice from jerry korte, the first year
i taught school. 1959, ely, minnesota. 18 miles from canada.
he was a rather skilled teacher, could do lettering, good
drawer, skilled in graphics. went on to become a fine college
educator. great painter.
he said....`you know mel, when you are an art teacher,
people will always ask you to do work free...cuzz artists
love their work. so, the american legion will ask you to
make signs, the church will want some graphics, the super
here at ely high will want weekend projects from you. do them.
then, have stationary made, like this.`
