109 2-PETOSKEY NEWS-REVIEW Monday, August 21, 1972 Different Style is Shown On Artist's Wall This Week By BETTY BADER A native of Detroit, who has strong family ties with East Jordan, was chosen to cut the ribbon at Artrain last week; has some of her work hanging in the Historical Museum in conjunction with the visit of Artrain and is exhibiting her work for the next two weeks in the foyer of the News-Review Bldg. in Petoskey. Peggy Midener, who is Mrs. Walter Midener and a descendent of Douglas and Asa Loveday, of East Jordan, also was a asked to do a painting lecture at the May meeting of the Top of the Mitt Artists and Craftsmen at Shanty Creek. She took some Victorian dolls and other bits of memorabilia and began a painting which is now finished and hanging with her exhibit.

Another painting she began at VISIT ANTRIM DELLS 3 Miles North of Eastport on U.S. 31 the May meeting was called, "Family Home" and is the home in East Jordan which was built by her great grandfather. It too is included in this 'one man' show. A native of Detroit, she has spent her summers at the Loveday home in East Jordan. Douglas, who was her mother's grandfather and his son, Asa bought the Williams Roller Skating Rink and made it into an opera house around the turn of the century.

It burned down eventually and the GAR park is now where the opera house once stood. Douglas also put in the first power plant in East Jordan to supply electricity and owned a hardware store in the town. The Elms is the name of the family home, though Peggy says the beautiful old trees are all gone now, victims of the disease which has destroyed most of the elms throughout the state. Peggy attended Western College for Women, in Oxford, Ohio and graduated from the Art School of the Society of Arts and Crafts, where she is presently a teacher. Her husband, Walter, is director of the college and their daughter, Wendy, 18, i is also attending the college.

She is represented in the Detroit Art Museum and the Butler Museum, in Youngstown, Ohio and her paintings which are exhibited, were purchase prizes. She also has some of her work hanging in the personal collection of Walter B.

Ford. Naturally she has shown some of her work in her summer 'backyard', in East Jordan and Charlevoix and in the fine arts exhibit of the Michigan State Fair. An important part of her background, she reveals, is the fact she has been able to travel to Europe and Greece. She has made two trips to Greece and is planning another this October. Peggy said she feels travel has improved her work and that she has been able to capture the whole feeling of the areas she has visited when she returns home.

The most rewards she has received, she revealed, is in the work she has done with the inner city children. These children spend the first part of their class time just enjoying the feel and look of the colors and find it fascinating to mix yellow and blue and get a whole new color, green. She is quite concerned about teaching painting to them and to get them to really 'see' and observe the world around them. The public is welcome to visit the News Review Bldg. on State-st.

and see the artist's wall with five of her works. In addition to 'Memorabilia' and 'Family Home' there is a gay picture of summer still life, a thought provoking. 'Silent Spring' and 'Ancient Ruins'. Anyone interested in her work may contact her at the Art School of the Society of the Arts and Crafts, 245 E. Kirby, Detroit, 48202.

Inadvertently the amount of Grand Marnier was omitted.

So, here is the complete recipe: Grand Marnier Mousse 4 eggs separated cup sugar envelopes unflavored gelatin cup cold water cup Grand Marnier cups whipping cream 16 ladyfingers (optional) Separate the eggs. Beat the yolks with the sugar until very thick. In a small pan, sprinkle gelatin on water and leave for five minutes. Heat to dissolve the gelatin. Add Grand Marnier to gelatin.

Whip the cream lightly. Beat egg whites until they stand in soft peaks. Combine egg yolks and sugar with cream. Add the gelatin and Grand Marnier. Fold in egg whites.

Allow four hours for the mousse to set in a mold or one quart souffle dish. The souffle dish may be lined with ladyfingers if you wish. Tiger Lily last! I have a tiger lily in my garden! For many years, in Muskegon, I would pull these lilies up and throw them away, they multiplied so and grew where we really didn't want them in the garden plans. Then we moved here and I forgot about these lilies, one of my favorites, until our oldest son said he had been trying to obtain some bulbs for his garden in Holland and that they were scarce. I couldn't believe that this prolific flower was scarce until I tried to find some bulbs to buy.

I visited the Wilson Garden Center (And didn't they do a beautiful job of decorating the Artrain area with those planters of trees, shrubs and flowers?) and looked through their catalogs and I mentioned it in my column. I received many offers of orange day lilies, as well as the lemon lilies and I do have some of these in our small garden now, but the tiger lilies were still scarce. Then Mrs. James Gibson mother of the mayor of Petoskey, brought me two bulbs from her yard. I have nursed them through three summers and watched them brown and wither with no flower, until this summer when I have one bright orange and black blossom.

Hurrah! We worry about the danger of losing some of our animals and there are organizations which promote "no pelts" from animals in danger of extinction for coats or fashions, but no one seems to worry about the flowers and weeds which are being lost as we develop the land. If you do have Tiger lilies in Inn your garden. Don't pull them up and throw them Tomorrow there may be no the more such flower in our state. L. DAR Annual DAR Conclave Held Held Mrs.
