Carl Schaefer Hanover Painter Ranks with Best Head of Water Color Artists Puts on "Dandy at New York Fair In an article entitled "Canada Advertises Art," Graham Mcserites in the Toronto Star Weekly that in time of war, everyhas extra burdens bear and one problems to solve, yet artists are the people hit hardest, for among the simple reason that when a war is on people just don't buy pictures. Canadian painters, therefore, were more than pleased, writes Mr.

Innes, that the National Art Gallery of Canada decided to bear the exof sending an exhibition of pense paintings to the World's Fair at New York, in order that the visitors to the Fair might see the calibre (4 the work done by Canadians, and dec.de to buy some of the possibly work on display. In order to exhibit all phases of Canadian art, it was decided to let each art group send its own show and to run them serially at sixweek intervals. The first group to send a display to New York was the Royal dian Academy, "the old guard, the pillar of order and respectability." This display was prepared by Fred Haines, and after it came the display arranged by the Hanover man, the following reference being made to it: "Beside Fred Haines, Carl Schaefer looks like a being from another world. Yet both share that hardheaded Ontario realism that has produced some of the finest painters in Canada. Schaefer raised in Hanover, up "in Grey county, is president of the Canadian Society of Painters in Water Color.

That's a name for a society with a short history, dating only from 1926. But in its short life the society has done much Canadian art. It was the first to learn that a group of thusiasts bent on the success of a particular method this case, water color) goes a whole lot further than a group bound together with the tails of an artistic shirtwhether brown or blue. "The water color men were the next to get a show at New York. and Schaefer went down to put the show on the walls.

If you know Schaefer, you'll know that the water color men put on a dandy showfor Schaefer believes in paintings, not painters. He's an uncompromising idealist who never truckled to anyone. A couple of winters ago a group of artists and their friends in Toronto started a forum to discuss the problems of art. Schaefer came along. He sat in a corner, his long thin nose thrust forth from under beetling brows with a perplexed air, as if seeking something it couldn't find.

All evening he sat quiet as a mouse, pulling on his pipe, and occasionally scratching a tuft of jet hair. After the main talkairy and philosophical -was over, the meeting was open to question. Finally it was Schaefer's turn. He rose. "There's too much talk and not enough painting; that's the trouble," and with that he loped from the room and the forum saw him no more.

"As president of this dominionwide society, he and his assistant, Caven Atkins, a Winnipeg boy who learned about form from the Winnipeg School of Art's famed Lemoine Fitzgerald, worked in close harmony. They both wanted pictures: good pictures, not just big names for the catalogue.

The little oyster gray galleries at the Fair shone with swift, surely executed water colors-so many pearls casting back from the wall the light of the Canadian landscape which had inspired them. The was a success; attendance increased, and Canadian art got a break in the New York papers.

Ripening, which begins in the honey-sac of the bee, is continused in the comb-cells.

During this process most of the sugar of the nectar is broken down into simple sugar in much the same manner as this is done in human digestion, Much of the water is also evaporated during ripening. Food Value Honey is Nature's own sweet. In the flower the nectar serves primarily as a food for the growing seed. A surplus is secreted, however, in order to attract the bees which an important part in the fertilization of the seed by carrying pollen (the male element) from one kind flower to the pistil (female) of another. Bees gather the honey for their own use and that of their brood.

Pollen and honey form their complete diet, pollen being the protein or meat part and honey the carbohydrate or bread. Because the bees at times gather more honey than they require for themselves and their young humans are also able to enjoy this excellent food. Honey is an ideal food for young children. During the growing years children are normally very active and frequently expend more energy in a day than adults. Therefore they must have a good supply of energy -producing foods and of these honey is one of the best.

It is carbohyrate in its simplest form and requires no further digestion in the body but is absorbed directly into the blood stream to produce immediate heat and energy. For this reason it also a particularly suitable food for athletes during periods of great physical strain and for insuffering from certain digestive disturbances. Also because of its mildly laxative action, honey is an important addition to modern dietaries and to infants' formulae.

The BEACON STORES LIMITED Next to Woolworth's Game Inspires Czech Composer To Write Fugue King George Plays "Chestnut at Boys' Camp Friday evening at the city rally of -girls-in-trainin held in Central United Church a new game was featured, arranged Owen Sound girls by one of the C.G.I.T. leaders, called "The Chestnut Tree." The girls and probably many older people will be interested in further information concerning a performance of this game that inspired a composer and thrilled a symphony audience. Long before Longfellow penned his verses about the village smithy, rural Englishmen were singing a hippety- hopping tune to the words: Underneath the spread.ng chestnut tree I loved her and she loved me.

There she used to sit upon my knee 'Neath the spreading chesnut tree. Last year, when King George VI visited a boys' camp in England, the boys entertained him by singing it with gestures, and (before a battery of newsreel cameras) the King himself joined in with a right royal will. Weeks later the newsreel reached a small cinema theatre at Juan-les-Pins on the French Riviera. In the audience was a jumpy, pinkeyed little Czech composer named Jaromir Weinberger, world-famed for his lilting opera Schwanda der Dudelsackpfeifer. Composer Weinberger was much struck.

Said he: "I liked this whole scene very much and I said to myself: "This is the theme for which you, Jaromir, shall write variations and a fugue." Last spring, while Hitler was marching on Czecho-Slovakia, Czech Weinberger, who had scurried off to the U.S., put the finishing touches to his variations. In Manhattan last week, John Barbirolli and the New York Philharmonic-Symphony gave them a first performance in Carnegie Hall. The Philharmonic's first-nighter3 found they had to chase Weinberger's spreading chestnuts through a thick foliage of neat counterpoint, got the tune hurled at them forwards, backwards, upside down, finally lost themselves in the fugue which ended up sound ing like a Czecho-Slovakian polka. In the score, when the English tune went backwards, Composer Weinberger carefully labeled it with the Latin words More Hebraeorum (Hebrew is read from right to left) with the explanation. Whichever way it came at them.

the staid Carnegie Hall audience liked Composer Weinberger's version as much as King George had enjoyed the original. Again this summer, at almost the first public appearance of the of royal family following the return King and Queen from Canada at the Balmoral boys' camp, the whole group played The Chestnut Tree and an Owen Sound audience saw this scene pictured on a newsreel at the Classic and chuckled over the efforts of the Queen and Princess Margaret Rose to do the right thing at the right time. His Majesty the King and Princess Elizabeth knew their "onions" and the King laughed when the Queen made mistakes. Violet B. Hodgins Is Wedded to J.
