Is found la a newspaper announce ment of Clifford McBrlde's latest book from the Castle press. Of i Don Herold, artist-humorist, has said much, to make local people who remember "Clifford." glad to claim him as a former son of Med ford. MeBride, now famous for the "Nap oleon and Uncle Eifey," his pen con ceived, lived here when he was very young. He attended the old Wash ington school and received his first training In art under Miss Jane Snedlcor. He Is the son of Mr. and Mrs, R. L. MeBride, who owned property on Rogue river. His progress with pea and ink has been watched by several local friends, who treasure the latest edi tion of "Uncle Eiby. "Ia an America in which slap stick reigns supreme and In a country whose comic art Is largely in the hands of butcher boys (sot that I have anything against butch er boys Clifford MeBride produces an output of humorous pen and ink pantomime In which there is con sistently gentlemanly restraint, gen tlemanly drawing and gentlemanly intelligence says Kerold of MeBride. adding that his drawings are "un speakably un-American." Then cornea the reason for the title of Herald's introduction to the book, "An apology for Clifford Me Bride. . , , "I must apologise again and again for Clifford MeBride, who has surreptitiously attained success, say he, wlth a type of humorous art which is against all our tradi tions. It' too good for ua and yet it thrives. Maybe it will eventually help us to get a taste for something good in spite of ourselves." Commenting upon Herold explan- ; ation. another writer says, "MeBride ; would have been at home with the artist of Punch In the days of Sir , John Tenniel, when art ws art ; and the butchery to which Mr. ; Herold refers was confined to abattoirs and private slaughter j house. When MeBride draws the : figure of a man, It Is unmistakably ! that of a man, not of something out j of the prehistoric ages which the paleontologists have not yet clasai- fled. The article further explains thatj Uncle Slby and Napoleon are sot ' imaginary characters. Napoleon is i a live dog, who Uvea at the MeBride ; house and "Uncle Elby" is Clifford MeBride favorite uncle, whether he ; likea it or cot.
