ARTIST AFTER PASSING 60. (Continued from Page 1.) the last six j ears. " '. -M . Bates Is now 63 years of age. She was born in Illlon, New York, living In Los Angeles much of the time and coming to -the Oregon country four year, sago. She has never had a painting lesson in her life and therefore must have natural ability. It Is a great pastime for her besides allowing her to make little mementoes for her dearest friends. In this way her mature years are spending themselves In tbe pur suit of the things she dreamed of as a young woman. It is like the wan ing of a beautiful sun in a clear sky, on a beautiful fall day, .full of the glories of a useful and Christian life. .MORRIS SAYS A sweet head is a head for sweets.
