Congressional Wife Takes UD Art
Mrs. Fernandez
Delights in
New Field
By Jessie Font Evons

Attractive Mrs. Antonio Fernan-
|dez, whose husband is New Mexi-
cos representative at large in
Congress and a member of the
important House Appropriations,
Armed Forces and United States
Treasury Committee, is finding
time from her congressional and
home-making duties in which to
take painting lessons.
OF her avocational effort, Mrs
Fernandez says, "Of course, ]
may not have talent but what of
it? I am doing it from the sheer
joy I derive in blending colors
and the sense of accomplishment,
that comes from creative self-ex-
preston. Then there is the enjoy
able surprise element, when my
output pleases my friends. my
family and, best of all, my hus-
band"
With justifiable pride her hus-
band has hung her portrayal of
the Key Bridge with it's vista of
Georgetown University's towers
from the Virginia shore upon the
walls of his study, as he has her
Virginia autumn landscape.
The descendant of Spanish
grandees and explorers, Mrs. Fer
nandez'S family connections are
a part of the historical back
ground of her home State, when
it was both Spanish and a Mex
lean province. She is the great
great niece of Padre Antonio Jose

brought from Spain, published
lei Crepusculo," the first news
paper in this area. Most of all,
his niece Cleofas Chavez Fernan-
dez has satisfaction in the ideals
of democracy he preached long
ahead of his time.
Like her husband, whose family
has held many State offices in New
Mexico ever since its territorial
days, this patriotic American cher
ishes the fact that their forbears
not only refused to become fol-
lowers of the Mexican military
government but were among the
first to pledge allegiance to the

said. Education, too, has helped
the people of my State to prize
their American citizenship and to
exercise their voting privileges
even among the most lowly.
Once featured as the congress
sional wife, whose trimmed

Ifuted the Hollywood assertion that
congressional wives do not wear
chic millinery and are dowdily
dressed, she recollects as a little
Il girl getting her concept of the
Easter hat she subsequently fash
Iioned from the first mail-order
catalogue that came to Chavez
ranch holdings As miles below
Springer. Today, by way of keep
ing herself up-to-date with the
hats she likes to make for her
self and as gifts for her friends,
she attends the adult education
Iclass on millinery every Tuesday
