day at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
D. Lucian Gore. The dinner Mat
tie served was really excellent,
and it was so wonderful to see
Mr. and Mrs. R. R. Hinson well
enough to be there also.
Naturally soon as dinner was
over I wanted to see the dairy,
It is sure something to look at
and 1 enjoyed it immensely. Lu'
clan has seventy-s1x COWS, and
forty-one of them are milking
now. He has named his place
"Green Acres" and that is exact
lv what it is. The pastures are
so pretty and green and well
filled with clover. I watched with
GREAT interest the milking pro
cess, but it is so complicated that
+ cans begin to tell how it was
carried out.
They were very nice to show
me- all through the feed barn,
the milk house, the main part OF
the dairy, and where the COWS

thousand dollars. And 80 many
names, each of them are tagged
with one of their own. I under
stand Virginia will make her ap'
pearance soon. So guess I'll have
to go back soon and see how l
look.
While I was looking at the
pastures T saw the most beauti'
full horse. He is black with a
white star on his forehead, and
to see him run is something spe.
cial. His name is Rocky, and
from what saw seems to be
very much a pet of Bill Kimbro
who showed him plenty OF loving
attention.
Lucian and Matte have been
married twenty-one years ana
have three daughters, Bernlce
Lee, Hazel and Nell. Bernice has
finished school, attended busl
ness school and is bookkeeper
for her father. Haze1 mas also
completed her school, attenoeo

their home with her mother ana

The house is so lovely that l

of the most modern appliances.
and carries out a color scheme or
red and white. The dining room
is glass enclosed and so attrac-
tive. The table was extremely
beautiful with its settings OF
crystal and silver.
The living-room carries out a
distinctive pattern of blue. gold
and burgundy, and the odd set
of beautiful bronze and irons IN
the fireplace especially caught
nv attention. The bathroom was
done in green and yellow and
was also modernly equipped. The
sun porch was neatly arranged,
and was done IN cool shades OF
green. sand and brown.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gore and chill
dren are one of our well known
families, and very active IN all
of our Church and community
affairs. Lucian is member OF
the School board for Williams

Discovery in Bombay
Starts Bunknote Rush

Not gold. but currency. caused
a rush recently In the highest-class
business district Of Bombay, India.
It started when the police. for the
second time in "a hours, found
bundles of notes. some Of them
torn, at the mouth Of a manhole.
Sweepers and urchins got busy
securing manholes of the district,
some being 'grubstaked" in their
prospecting by people too shy to
join the search themselves. Notes
to the total value of about $8,4OO
were found. The police had no

ART HAS MANY FACES. THE
NATURE OF ART PRESENTED
USUALLY

ART HAS MANY FACES. THE
NATURE OF ART PRESENTED
USUALLY
BY Katherine Kuh. (Harper's;
s6.50.)
This pictorial approach to the
understanding and enjoyment OF
Iart puts between covers methods
Katherine Kuh has developed as
curator Of the gallery of art inter
probation at the Art Institute OF
Chicago (where she is also as
sociate curator Of painting and
'sculpture). The volume has 271
reproductions, 7 in colors. while
the text is brief: Words serve "only
as auxiliaries to point up and
clarity the illustrations" MY
hope" says Mrs. Kuh. "is to show
rather than tell, to combine look
ing with reading by limiting the
text to statements which can be
verified through illustrated ex-
amples, comparisons or contrasts. -
All periods are discussed, but
the goth century monopolizes one
half the book. a defensible divi-
sion, since the art Of our own
times has proven most difficult to
grasp. It does not seem possible
that any reader could fail to gain
considerable insight into mysteries
of certain arts after studying this
excellent work. Readers will not
necessarily Iike them better when
they acquire understanding. But
it should lead to tolerant possibly
to genuine interest.
The book is an admirable exam

done by Gyorgy Kepes. professor
Of visual design at Massachusetts

Herman Maril's painting is an
art Of underStatement. He says
what he wants to say with eco
romical means, but it is all there.
Furthermore, there is nothing
strident in his statement. His
colors are subtle and quiet, and
have the authority of a low, clear
voice.
Mr.. Maril's painting seems to
have been mature from the time
he mastered his medium and be-
gan to show his work. At any
rate, this is the impression visitors
will derive from his 20 years ret
respective at the Barnett Alden
Gallery through November, signal
izing the gallery's eighth anniver-
sary. Naturally. the work changes
from 1881 to 81, but the major
characteristics are present
throughout.
The most drastic variation
seems to have occurred only in
the past year or two. From the
beginning of his career until very
recently. Mr.. Maril's painting was
sustere realism, the natural forms
stripped to bare essentials, but still
natural. In the group of paint
ings dated 1851, angularity has set
in, carrying this years output ton
view across the border into alb
straction, although the subjects
are easily recognized. A few ear
