Fort of Cape Breton Island,

This dyed-in-the-wool artist,

rugged land of the Acadians
immortalized in Longfellow's
"Evangeline", has made hook
ed paintings of President Eis
enhower, Queen Elizabeth II,
Arthur Godfrey and his horse,
and the late Pope Pius XII.
The portrait of "Ike" copied
in home-dyed wools from a
color photograph which the
Republican National Commitr
tee sent her, hangs in the
White House. It prompted a
complimentary letter from the

At the moment, Miss Le
Fort is branching out from
people as subjects and doing
the "Mayflower II" from a
color photograph. She has just
completed her most ambitious
project-a c"opy of Leonardo Da
Vinci's "The Last Supper".
154 Colors Employed
This intricate painting
measures eight feet in width
and four and one-half feet in
height. Miss LeFort estimates
she used three and one-half
miles of yarn and 800 thou
sand stitches-169 inches make
one square inch.
"The Last Supper" took 154
colors', all of them dyed in
regular pots and pans on her
kitchen stove. The wool comes
from her neighbor's sheep and
is-sent to Prince Edward Isle
for processing into yarns.
I met this unique artist, a
small dark-haired woman of
44, when she came to Manhat
tan for an exhibit of her
works. She had held winter
exhibits in Laguna Beach,
Calif., and Phoenix, Ariz. She
was heading to Toronto for
an exhibit this week and then
on home to tiny Point Cross,
Cape Breton Island.
Her sponsors, accompany
ing her, are Mr. and Mrs. Ken
neth Hansford, who summer
in Nova Scotia, where they
run a restaurant, a photo and
arts and crafts shop along the
Cabot trail, a big tourist at
traction. Come winter, the Hansfords
usually head for Phoenix-"we
get 100 mile winds and tem
peratures 25 below on Cape
Breton," said Hansford. "It's
too rugged for me."
Discovered on Farm
Hansford said he discovered
Miss LeFort just by combing
the farm area in search of
arts and crafts. Rug hooking
is an old skill with the Acadi
ans. Miss LeFort learned from
her mother, but it was her own
idea to go into portraits and
landscapes.
She sketches her designs in
ink on burlap first, then fills
in with the wool yarns.
"In all, I guess I've done
close to 50 pictures in the last
15 years," she said, in careful
English. Her native tongue is
French. "I must work in spare
time. There are lots of chores
on a farm."
The artist, daughter of a
fisherman, lives with her
brother and his wife. She re
mains a modest soul, although
those who have seen her
works praise them highly.
Some paintings have sold
for $300 to $500 but a few
dealers have talked of "The
Last Supper" in terms ofa
$10,000 price tag, she said.

Witb Pork
The Swedes like spiced
prunes or apricots with pork
dishes. The Chinese make a
sweet and sour sauce using
pineapple chunks and green
peppers with pieces of pork.
The French like an herb sea
soned stuffing and a sprightly
light wine. Margaret Spader,
home service editor for the
Gas Appliance Manufacturers
association suggests you vary
garnishes and accompani
ments when serving pork.
Avoid starchy, fat dishes.
Serve low-calorie vegetable!
such as broccoli, spinach,
sauerkraut, brussel sprouts
and celery with pork dinners.
