Eight Paintings -Gold
Hill Artist
Used by Magazine
Eight paintings of Jackson
ville and the Rogue River val
ley done by Fritz Wertz, Jack
son county artist, are reproduced
in color in the August issue of
Ford Times, publication of the
Ford Motor company.
The eight were selected from
a group which the company pur
chased from Mr. Wertz last win
ter. The pictures are used to
illustrate a story about Jackson
ville titled "Oregon's Liveliest
Ghost Town," ancl written by
Ellis Lucia, newspaper reporter
and journalist from Forest
Grove, Ore.
The pictures are of The Unit
ed States hotel in Jacksonville,
Jim Cornutt's barnyard, the old
county courthouse in Jackson
ville, Table Rock, the Lyden
House, the Masonic building, the
Orth Building and Redman Hall
and Kottage Kitchen.
The color reproductions, while
small, retain much of the live
liness and color -of the old west
for which the Wertz watercolors
are noted. The paintings purch
ased by the company have be
come part of its permanent art
collection and will be shown in
this country and in Europe. The
issue also carries a brief article
about the artist and a small pic
ture on the "contributor's page."
In the article the Forest
Grove reporter recounts many
of the incidents and' legends
about Jacksonville. He retells
the one about President Ruther
ford B. Hayes staying at the
United States hotel and remark
ing, when presented a bill for
$120, that he did not intend
buying the place. Reporter Lu
cia tells of the discovery of gold
at Jacksonville, the gold rush
days, Indian raids, epidemics of
Dr. Margery Bailey, Stanford
university, and Angus Bowmer,
festival founder and producing
director. They will be interview
ed by Jennings Pierce, KMED
manager and long-time NBC as
sociate. Bud Beechwood of the
