Among the most distinguished visit
ors summering on Bustin's is Mr.. Wal
ter Chaloner, we'll known water
color artist of high talent Mr.. Chal-
oner has his principal studio in Mer-
rimac, Mass, but also has others. 1t
has been said that Mr.. Chaloner is
probably the strongest painter of tree
anatomy in the United States. His
winter landscapes are especially IA
nous as he makes person feel al
most as if he were on the spot. Mr..
Chaloner has painted a great many
landscapes in Italy, Switzerland, Ger
many, Holland, France, England,
Scotland, Ireland and Wales and also
all over the United States. He has
held exhibitions all over our coun-
try to which people have flocked in
great numbers, attracted by his fine
talent. One gentleman has over
fifty of Mr.. Chaloner's paintings which
he keeps in separate room and
calls it his Chaloner room. Mr..
Chaloner has a bungalow at Bear Is
land and another at Lake Winnipe-
saukee but he says that he likes Bus
tins as well as either of these. This
is his second year here and we all
hope he will come again. He and
