Local Artist Is Recognized Abroad As Ashland and vicinity are well aware of the talented artist in our midst, in the person of Miss Mabel Russell, we are pleased to know that her light is not "hidden under a bushel," but her fame has already spread beyond the confines of the state. We print the following extract from a letter received recently by her from John P. Clum, in the interests of the Southern Pacific Company, which reads: "Since writing you I have shown your rose slide at San Jose and at Del Monte. At the former place yours was the only flower slide to command applause and you know that some of my other flower slides are very beautiful." The above letter has reference to slides which were made of some of Ashland's roses, the color work being by Miss Russell. We also quote from the pen of Llschen M. Miller in writing to the Eugene Morning Register. He says: "It seems Impossible to get away fropi pictures this week, and cer tainly I cannot pnss -over In silence the wonderful work in oils which Dr.' Hodge discovered In southern Ore gon. They are on exhibition t Allen Eaton's art shop and are really re markable In many ways. The grape clusters by Miss Russell strike me as being marvelous as to color and technique. How sho achieved that translucent effect is something be yond the understanding of the unin itiated. "Miss Russell Is a sister of Mrs. Fountain, who has painted many pic tures of ('rater Lake, but nomJto compare with those now In the pos session of Dr. Hodge. Her work has been exhibited in Portland and San Francisco." Dr. Hodge is the lecturer who was at Ashland some time ago and lec tured at the school on the "fly cam paign." When ho was here he took the beautiful picture Miss RusBell had made of some Ashliij Flaming Tokay grapes and two Crater Lake pictures which were painted by Miss Russell's sister, Grace R. Fountain. He Intends to hang them In the uni versity library, to be enjoyed by the students. He as well as the people of Eugene are completely won over to the beautiful work which was done by these artists. Quoting Dr. Hodge: "I cannot remember of ever see ing anything of the kind that seemed as well done so full of translucent, glowing, bottled sunshine." Across the plains and over the Rocky Hills, , Where ev'ning's sun sinks in the! western sea, j By the winding trails among the! rocks and rills. Where Nature's hand is lavish with her gifts, Lies the fertile valley of the Rogue. There over the vale and through the bushy dark, The lean and hungry coyote still prowls And cries to the hills his shrill be wailing bark. To wake the echoes of the silent night In the quiet valley of the Rogue. And there the crouching cougar peers from his lair Into the darkness of the night and snarls His challenge to the danger-laden air, While gentle breezes whisper through the pines ' J F In the wild, old valley of the Rogue. There the wandering buck and the gentle doe Still roam in the wilds of the Siski you hills. Long may there the gnarly manzanita grow, And the stately oak spread its boughs above The beautiful valley of the Rogue.
