THE CALO COMPANY SPECIALISTS IN PET NUTRITION IP o it p n tjh ir n 5 Reports of the United States' exhibits at the World's Fair in Belgium continue to be as varied as the persons who make them. Latest to reach Potpourri was one written by Mrs. Robert Miller, who taught English in Medford High school for the past two years and who, with her husband and small son, Kit, is now in Europe. The Millers are making an indefinite stay abroad while Mr. Miller j an artist,-paints and studies in France. In a recent letter to her mother, Mrs. Virginia Sher wood, Mrs. Miller wrote of their iiew life in Gue-du-Loir, and of their earlier visit to the fair. "Yesterday our trunk and bags that have been stored in LeHavre all summer arrived, and it was like Christmas. The only fjy in the ointment is- that we Ordered wood for the little stove over a week ago and haven't seen a stick yet However, it's not very cold, except after supper. In fact, the weather has been considerably nicer than it was all summer everywhere. Bob has been able to paint every day and is providing himself with still life material for a rainy day. "We. had intended to go to Paris last week end it's only about 80 miles away - to pick up mail,' see if our coats had arrived, buy some books arid art supplies and pay a visit to the Flea Market for possible still life stuff, when we dis covered that the general election was to take place that Sun day. I wouldn't have thought much about it, but our neigh-" bor reported there was some Communist inspired violence going on in the' week preceding the voting, so we postponed our trip until the coming Friday. ."M. St: Mare, our neighbor, and Bob get on very well are out painting together again today, in fact - and it is probably fortunate that he, St. Mare, is at an opopsite pole in style and subject matter. He paints - toujours wistful, slim, frail creatures, always sitting on tile floors or gazing out of windows with broken shutters, with soft, watered down colors and a matte finish. He and wife and their little boy came here three years "ago from Paris and both there and here he has done" some advertising work (magazine and newspaper type). He has had two shows of his work here at Gue-du-Loir and sold everything he showed. Bob took some old paintings off their stretcher bars the other night and St. Mare experimented with them by putting a nice frame over this part and that and told Bob that he could get 30,000 francs for one. That sounds like a lot, but only amounts to about $75. Still, if one could sell a couple a month one could live on it - in fact, three could. St. Mare haj contracted for an exhibit of his work in Paris next month and finds him self with little time and no work to show. He has been puU tering around here day after day, finding all kinds of ex cuses not to paint - cleaned out his studio twice since we've been here. , "Their apartment, which is smaller than ours, is called LeColombier, because it used to be a dove cote. Ours is Le Chatillon (or something which means Little Chateau) and the grand apartment up above is Bel Air. The whole is call ed Roc-en-Fleurs because the doctor who owns them has planted all kinds of flowers and bushes up here. - "T oniric tr toll vmi ahniit fho WnrlH's Fair a Tons X WOO 6ulllb vv " . time ago. I think the buildings were, generally speaking, more interesting than their contents with the exception of the French one, which looked so sort of heavily futurama-ish, but had enough inside to occupy your attention for days -sans couture' Not a dress was to be seen (on display, I mean). Of course, we went straight to the U.S. navilion which is very strategically situated at the chief entrance. They have a round, rather commonplace building with the States' flags all the way around it and have given a large part of their snare to a laree. shallow pool with some strange wiggly spurts of water growing thickly all over. . Inside things were pretty auu wun a iew nuiame ex ceptions. What really surprised me was the little that was j: Tho nrac a nnnl inside also, and arranged alonC one side of it, on its banks, so to speak, and facing the main entrance, were large screens, about one story high, with very, very good Steinberg "cartoons" of American life. They have been done with cut-out paper and paint and a few other materials such as staples. The only trouble with them is that probably only Americans could appreciate the satire ilrf h hurt: The ' other two ana iiidjfwc . - . things I thought well presented were a large (compared to other exhibits) architecture section on one v ie um.uuira. There were large photographs of schools, churches and resi dences and some models. Many were by west coast archi tects anq firms. "Then there was a small exhibit of contemporary but .mi-nnum naintprs' works.
