SEVENTEEN. YEARS IN ART
By MABGAUT MAGEI
"We have over ISO exhibits
now and I can recall the time
when we thought we were do
ing well If we had over a hun
dred." That was the little lady who
has been in charge of the art
department for the past 17
yeara at the Oregon State Fair
Mrs. C. H. Rundell speak
ing.
Mrs. Rundell is one of the old
timers at the fair and each year
comes from Portland for the
event and brings a large num
ber of pictures with her. Her
home is at 4734 Southeast Har
rison street. Portland.
Thinking back over her first
years with the department, Mrs.
Rundell recalled that when ihe
first came to the fair ihe
brought 36 pictures with her
from Portland. This year that
number had grown to 195 pic
tures done by Portland artists.
And in addition were 70 photo
graphs by Portland photographers.
And speaking of photographs
they were only a lew dsck
18 years ago.
How did Mrs. Rundell hap
pen to come to the state fair?
. Well, when Mrs. Ella Wilson
was here with the Btaie Fair
she asked Mrs. Rundell if she
would com and she did.

Services Held Today
For Mrs. Fred Barker
Funeral aervlces for Mrs.
Fred Barker, who lived at
1190 North Cottage atreet,
were held at 1:30 p.m. Tues
day at the W. T. Rlgdon chapel
with the Rev. S. Raynor Smith,
assisted by the Rev. Ernest P
Goulder, officiating. Inter
ment was in the City View
cemetery.
Born in New York State in
1889, Mrs. Barker was mar
ried to Fred Barker there in
1907. In 1909 they moved to
Salem and have lived here
since. i
On would naturally think
that the person heading the art
department would be an artist,
but Mrs. Rundell is a business
woman and It is Just sn appre
ciation of art that brought her
to this Job.
Plus the desire to help Ore
gon artists, we might add, for
she remarked, "I have one
thought In mind. That of help
ing artists in their work and
giving them a place where they
can exhibit.
"The longer I have been here
the leu I know about art," Mrs.
Rundell commented, then add
ed, "It pays me to know less."
She feels that whst the de
partment needs is a business
head and there is no doubt that
her background fits her for
thst. Mrs. Rundell years psst
served ss superintendent of the
stenographic depsrtment of the
buiiness college at Walla Wal
la. Wash. Later she did office
managerial work for business i
firms.
When she was through with
active business work Mrs. Run
dell turned to working in clubs
and fraternal organizations so
she has little idle time on ter
hsnds.
, While Mrs. Hundeii fc
watched the art department
grow, this year, she points out,
there are less exhibits tnan jait.
But there is one compensating
thing the exhibits are of much
better quality than last year.
During those 17 years tne
head of the art department has
watched a number of her ex
hibitors go from the amateur
class to the professional

MILITARY MEN
AND VETERANS
Wednesday, September
One she specifically recalled h'Mi """eT battalion,
is Kate Cordon Raymond of
Portland, sister of Sen. Guy
Cordon. Mrs. Raymond started
in the amateur class and her
work was so good that ahe
failed to win prizes, the Judges
feeling that work like she did
surely would have to be a copy.
Mrs. Raymond moved into the
professional class and has tak
en prizes every year since.
Mrs. Rundell has seen her de
partment moved from an up
stairs location In the agricul
ture building to the present lo
cation Just west of the agricul
ture building. That move was
made 15 years ago.
Mrs. Rundell thinks the de
partment should have a new
building, but that does not seem
to be forthcoming at least for
the present. She, however, does
not oiame tne lair management
for this and commented on the
fine treatment Leo Spltzbart.
fair manager, had given her end
the art department during her
years at the fair.
"He has done everything he
can for us," Mrs. Rundell said.
Mrs. Barker was a charter
member of Jason Lee Metho
dist church and a member of
Rebekah Lodge 11.
She is survived by her hus
band. A daughter, Katherlne,
died In 1939.
