Farmers Wife
Champ Painter
of Barns

SIDNEY, o. -(P)- Maxine
Sidle, farmers wife and mother
of small son, feels she has claim
to the title of champion painter of
her sex.
Maxine's endeavor isn't in the
field of high art. She paints such
things as barns, corncribs, milk
houses and fences. This, she says,
is harder than merely daubing a
canvas on an easel.
Mrs. Sides painting prowess
developed as result of her desire
for spinet piano. Since there were
no available funds for the purpose,
she decided to earn the money
herself-but not by the usual means
of selling eggs, butter and vege-
tables.
The Sidles rent their farm and
when the landlord decided to have
the farm buildings painted, Maxine
signed up for the job. Four months
and 204 paintbrush hours later,
she had the money for the piano
and IL farm buildings shone like
new in the sun of Shelby County.
Mrs. Sidle, a slender, energetic
young woman, may have been a
novice when she started her pro-
ject, but she was an expert when
she finished Among her accom-
plishments were: 20 by 80-foot
barn, hen houses, a sheep barn,
loading shed, woodhouse, corncrib,
milk house, garage, fences, gates,
an oil tank, storm windows, rail-
ings and porch floors.
Like the postman, she was not
deferred by rain or storm On rainy
days she did interior scraping and
sanding. Wasp nests were no prob
lem-she knocked them down with
a fishing pole the night before she
painted the barn. Lacking tall
ladders she parked big truck close
to exterior walls and worked from
the top of the cab.
During her painting chore Mrs.
Sidle also took care of her normal
chores such as looking after her
young son, cooking, housekeeping
cleaning and Grating eggs, feeding
chickens, washing milking equip
ment, moving tn lawn, gardening
and helping her husband in the
fields.
Maxine, proudly surveying her
new piano, saws anybody could do
he same, adding:
But you do have to cut down
on your social life a bit"

AN l8-year-old youth appar-
emily was cleared today of any
suspicion in the Staten Island
knife Staying Of DR.. and Mrs.
Melvin Miner, but was charged
with stealing two suitcases in
Brooklyn.
The youth. william Fletcher.
jr., a Negro and onetime mental
patient. who had gone from
New York to Farmville, Va,
three days ago and made state
ments which relatives inter-
preted as hints he had some
connection with the case.
However, after being brought
here for extensive questioning
and a tour of Staten Island.
which he was said to have
visited with friends several
hours before the Miners were
found dead at their home early
the morning Of September 2,
he was released to Brooklyn
authorities.
Brooklyn police said he adj
mitted stealing two suitcases
owned by the operator Of a
rooming house where his father
lives. Young Fletcher was
quoted as saying he used the
valises to remove his clothing
from his fathers room. He was
charged with petty larceny.
Earlier. Staten Island Dis
triet Attorney John M. Braist-
ed had told newsmen he was
pretty sure that the youth had
no connection with the Miner
murders but was making a
routine check on all angles Just
to be on the safe side.
While Mr.. BREASTED made no
specific statement about young
Fletcher at the conclusion Of
his investigation. the fact that
the boy was released to Brook
Ign was taken to mean he had
been dropped from Mr.. Brais-
ted's probe.
This action returned the
spotlight to 8-year-old Melvin
Miner. jr., who. after first tell
ing police a masked intruder
slew his parents. claimed he
did it with a kitchen knife. The
boy now is undergoing mental
tests.
