WATKINS Fear of man or anything else is about as alien to a porcupine as is ambition or the desire for even mild exercise. This ani- ma never hur- 'Vf ries and many nc never thinks. The only thing he asks of life is something to chew on and he cares little what that something happens to be; being a rodent he has to chew. One time after rowing boat along a river, I pulled up beside the bank to rest.

It was a warm day and the drowsy hum of countless insects lulled me to sleep. I was awakened by a steady gnaw: Ing sound. There was a porcupine within two feet of my face. He was calmly eating the handle off one of the boat oars, At mv sudden movement he i. missed a single bite.

He was twilling to chew up the handle r- hands had left in the wood Neither did he show any con cern when I carefully inched to a safer distance. He looked at me sadly when I later pulled showed no hostility, am Blways amazed at the with I'rheaTthv norennin whlch every healthy Prcupin ie is armed.

It is a striking showing, in -which huge figures, painstakingly hammered out of sheets of copper, pulsate with life and a beauty all their Light ripples over his forms like sunny waters i pebbly river bed; his figures, while often monumental in size, have the intimacy and restraint ef time weathered, ancient bronze.

It is a virtuoso display, by a sculptor ef tremendous stature whose death at 69 last Anroit wag major loss. Through the middle of June the nationally honored "Boston School" of painting a generation or more ago, Paxton is being honored with the first rep. resentative selection of his work since the memorial exhibition at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts in 1941. A craftsman in the true sense of the word," the small group of paintings on view are notable for their solid handling of form, soft, glowing color and remarkably real textural effects. Outstanding is a head of his wife, Elizabeth, as a young woman.

(Incidentally she has just completed a stunning showing of her still lifes at the Guild of Boston Artists). There is a striking "Head of a Chinese a study of an adolescent girl getting up in the morning, soft light from a bedroom window enveloping the canvas; a charming look at a woman poised by a marble fireplace in "The Front Par and a portrait of Elwyn v. uj ilia auu The exhibit which helps point up tho fact that painting styles change but the fundamentals of good painting don't, will be open to the public daily, except Sundays, through Wednesday, May 21.

In the Art Directors showing, the members, who direct and produce advertising art for newspapers, magazines and television, present water colors, oils, done in their off hours. The range of Interest Is wide, from portraits to landscapes, from the realistic to the semi-abstract, with a number ef variations In between. While some are more adept or ex. perlenced than ethers, all seens to be having fun. Prizes went to C.

Robert Per-rin for a water color, "Birds I Know" while honorable men tions went to Elwood Blanken-ship, Donald Bowman and Ben N. Nason. Through the 16th. In the Cobb-Maynard showing, one. finds fresh, sunny, water colors of plants, flowers, and interiors by the former and mood-evoking figure studies, street scenes and citvscanes hv tho the latter, hoth of whom ira regular contributors to group shows at the gallery and about town.

At Doll Richards, Henry Davenport, who is having his first oneman showing in' 14 years, presents a 'number of freshly handled, sunny landscapes done both here and abroad.

Answer A woman born in Jan. 1897 needs 16 quarters to be insured. It would appear you have more than enough to qualify. Using old computation (you did not furnish enough information on earnings after 1950) your benefit at 65 would be about $71.50.

Dr. Johnson thought that if the parents had ignored the child's difficulties and had not become impatient with him, he would gradually have learned to speak more fluently.

Dr. Johnson said that school teachers found it had to distinguish between some children who spoke with normal hesitation and some who were thought by their parents to be stutterers. The youngsters got tense and spoke with more effort when their parents fussed at them. Dr. Johnson and his associates soon came to the conclusion that it was the parent rather than the child the listeners rather than the speakers who were the ones most reoulring instruction and exhortation.

gets home and feels that his Earents are anxious about him, may start stuttering. Dr. Johnson advises tht parents to read to the child, and to talk with him when they can. He asks them to remember that often when a child is talking badly what he is doing is trying to hold the renter of interest in a group of adults when he cannot think of anything to say. Then the parents might well say.

"Junior, wait a bit until you know what you want to say; and then we will listen to you." Many stutterers are the better for listening to their speech, recorded on tape. They also are made to talk in front of a mirror. Dr. Johnson's advice is to do three things: first talk to people and then talk some more to people.
