M_ qa "Sentiment once played a far
” more Important role In art ap-
preciation than it does today. In fact, senti-
ment has become so odious that we are in
danger of missing a big chunk of aeathntic
forest,’* Thomas S. Buechner lamented a
while back when a cult of ugliness and ob-
scureneos was predominant. Buechner spoke
as Director of The Brooklyn Museum of
Art, which ranks in quality, not all encom-
passing: quantity, with the engine*red-publi-
city aggrandized Metropolitan Museum on
the far side of Hast River Bridge. Ho con-
soled himself with the thought, "If history
goes on being cyclical, sentimental atti-
tudes will be in vogue again.”
Mr. Buechner is a proved prophet in 1971
centennial of the emergence by Kdward and
Thomas Moran, oldest of three brother art-
ists (the other was *...........

Rockwell original painting was sold by a
New York gallery for 927,000. Coincidental-

foremost publisher of books on fine arts,
brought out an elegant portfolio, edited by
Thomas Buechner, Norman Rockwell: Artist
nnd Illustrator, in full-color, with elaborate
gatefolds, at sixty dollars a copy.
Hundreds of Rockwell originals disap-
peared while sentiment was in low esteem.

Interview
Of The
Month *
Station WABC-TV in New
I York must be credited with
; coming up with the mo»t honest
interview in the month of Aug-
ust. It came about as the result
of an experimental project just
begun in New York City.
A bit of background: On a
spot-check basis, the city wel-
fare department ig requiring a
random percentage of welfare
recipients to come and get their
checks in person, instead of re-
ceiving them by mail. When the
recipients arrive, they are ques-
tioned about whether they have
ioiked for work. If they are
able-bodied, they are required
to perform somP jobs for the
city — such as cleaning up the
parks, etc.
About one-third of the reci-
pients haven't shown up to re-
ceive their checks, leading of-
ficials to suspect that the reci-
pients don’t want to be Identi-
fied for fear that it will Be
! leemed that tVv Save adequate
income to support themselves
! Some of the recipients who
1 did show up, and who were put
to work, proved to be interest-
ing examples. And this is
; where the television station
came in. In an interview, one
I recipient, who had been assign-
ed to picking up trash in Cen-
tral Park, was asked why it
was that he hadn't been able to
find a .job.
Die man thought for a mo- j
Ment, then said: "Well. 1 wasn't
looking
Incidentally, all the news
these day* Isn't bad. For ex-
ample, two Black Panthers were
arrested some weeks hack out
in l/>» Angeles. They had been
involved in a shoot-out with |
pilice. A friend stepped for-
i ward *nd irrt up 158088 baf!
for the tWo. They promptly
• kipped bail, and the friend
j had to fork over the $50,000

Tax Foundation, Inc., which
keeps track of such statistics,
mentioned the other day that
back In 1913, the federal govern-
ment collected Income taxes at
the rate Of 167 a minute. That,
as -we say, was in 1913. What
do you suppose is the rate to-
day? Why, it’s 8263,807 per
minute!
And, as a final note In pass-
ing. It's interesting to hear all
of the criticism being voiced
In this country about the corrup-
tion in the government of South
Vietnam.

THE NET WORTH OF A
GRAFE ARBOR
Dear Heloise!
Our house geta #ie sun ac-
ross the hack practically the
whole day. In the winter, I love
it, but in the summer it was
unbearable, so a few years ago
we built a large redwood arbor
across the heck and planted
grape vines.
In no time at all we had
lovely shade and privacy, so
wa then decided to put a brick
patio under it. Just beautiful un-
til the beginning of July, Then
guess whatT If you've ever sat
under s grape arbor after the
grapes begin to ripen, you know
what I am about to say. Debris,
dead leaves smd even overipe
grapes shower down over every-
thing.
Now, I said to myaelf ...
•“What w*ild Heloise do in a
dilemma like this?" Then I
thought of your lovely nylon
net!
So I purchased sonvs bright
green nylon net to make drops
I seamed one and one-half
widths together and cut it the
length of each section of arbor.
I aewed shower curtain hooks
in each comer and my son put
the eye screws in the four cor-
ners of each arbor section. We
booked up and presto< no more
debris.
He lowers cm* end of it every
week or so and empties it right
(into a pin stle hag.

Dear Heloise:
I always carry several lined
recipe cards in my purse.
They are most convenient to
copy a recipe at the beauty
shop or when visiting someone.
Saves copying it over again af-
ter you get home.
All I have to do when I get
home la place It right into my
recipe box .and. besides, the
cards take very little mom in
my purse.

LETTER OF LAUGHTER
Dear Heloise:
If you have new carpeting on
the brain, you must first decide
If it is absolutely necessary to
replace the old. This will not
be hard to do it one of your
neighbors has recently had her
carpet laid!
Change your mind as often
as you wish for, "This is a
woman's prerogative ..."
Go to a reputable carpet store
and pretend you are only look-
ing for something to put in the
dog house.
This will insure your being
able to look over all the pat-
terns and prices unannoyed by
salesmen!
Now go home and consider all
facts and after all the "ballots'
are in, and keeping up with
"Mrs Neighbor" just won't, fit
in the budget, quickly call the
carpet layers, order what you
decided upon and ask them
when you can expect them out
to do the job!

Dear Heloise:
Years ago I took a pottery j
course and we were taught to
roll out the clay between two
sticks. By doing this, the clay
was always the same thickness.
Now that I am a homemak-
er. I use this same principle
when rolling dough to make
cookies.
I broke a yardstick in half,
(you could devise something of
your own), laid one on each
edge of pastry cloth put ball
of dough in between and rolled
away. |
All of my rookies are the
same thickness and so bake
evently too.
