He takes a song, whis pers a few tones, twangs some chords on his guitar and pres to, it breaths again! The cen turies seem to roll back, the mists vanish, and you glimpse the undimmed essence of a far-off burst of song echoing some nameless bard's cry of pain or passion."

Do You Like Psychologist By JEANNE LESEM United Press International New York -UPD- A woman who passes up steak for a less expensive restaurant entree isn't necessarily the thrifty type. , She may skip steak because she thinks no special talent is needed to cook it, and no unusual ingredients go into its preparation. Several women gave this explanation in a 42-family survey made by psychologist Peter Siegle to determine why we like to eat out. The study was made in the midwest for a national food service and restaurant chain, the John R. Thompson Co. This yen for the unusual is one of women's main rea sons for dining out, the study disclosed. It also revealed that moth ers enjoy appearing publicly with their families as a visible expression of "togetherness." Mothers even relish dining out when the children are along, Siegle said. Provided, of course, that the small fry are on their good behavior. "Part of the basic female role is to provide sustenance to those close to her," the psychologist explained. "That is why any woman loves to see a man eat-even if it's not her cooking. "Even the flighty career girl has a hidden yearning to cook for her man. Whether she knows it or not, that's one reason she enjoys dining out." Dining Out Romantic "Courting couples," said Sie gle, "find dining out romantic. The world's greasy pans seem far away when you're seated at a cozy table for two in a softly-lighted restaurant. This also gives a man a chance to be chivalrous-to treat his fair guest gallantly by seating her, helping her order, and amus ing her with his conversa tion." And what is the fair lady's reaction? Married or single, she's men tally "taking notes"' on the cooking whenever she's in a restaurant. In addition, the homemak- er who faces the same cook ing and cleaning routine day after day, looks upon a res taurant meal as a "reward and an adventure. If you're in this group, don't wait for friend husband to suggest dinner at your favor ite restaurant. Men tend to resist family dining out, the study revealed. They eat out frequently, often find busi ness lunches necessary, and feel dining out is hard on the bank account, Even the working girls-and bachelor businessmen-follow a similar pattern,; the study showed. Women consistently seek fancier restaurants and spend a disproportionate amount of their earnings for lunch, Siegle said. Change Minds Waiters and waitresses ques tioned in the survey confirm ed the suspicion that many men order the same things daily, with only slight varia tions. Unlike women, they Silesia n Ensemble To Make U.S. Tour The brilliant Slask (Siles ian) State Song and Dance En semble will start a three months tour of the U.S. in Bos ton on October 30.

Nor do they ask about ingredients in sauces and salads.'. y "W omen in restaurants change their minds much more frequently than men," said Siegle. This is news? . If you want to liven up lunch with a guessing game, try to identify executives by listening for this question to the waiter: "What's good to day?" Siegle says it is often asked by executives who are faced with decisions all day long. At lunch they are especially prone to avoid choices, pre ferring to follow a set pattern. If business lunches dull your husband's enthusiasm for dinners on the town, pass along this advice from Siegle. Every man should consid er the act of wining and din ing his wife an investment in domestic bliss. It's a rare women who will bite the hand that feeds her." Jewel Art Scheduled In Portland Portland Art-in-Jewels, a collection of 28 jeweled works of art designed by Sal vador Dali, will open at the Portland Art Museum with a preview for members, August 18, and remain on view through September 6. They have been loaned for this showing by the Owen Cheatam Foundation. The foundation makes the jewels available, on loan, to charit able, cultural, religious, and educational institutions for fund-raising purposes. A 50c admission fee will be charged. The exhibition is a Museum benefit. Religious, classical, and sur realistic subjects, rendered in diamonds, gold, emeralds, ru bies, pearls, sapphires, chryso- prase, are included in the col lection, which as been vari ously valued, by experts, at upwards of $1,000,000. The jeweled works of are represent Dali's surrealistic and classical periods and his more recent "mystico-nu- clear" phase. In this newer period, Dali has been creat ing jewels and paintings of a religious nature. One of the paintings, "The Crucifixion," was presented to the Metro politan Museum of Art by Chester Dale in 1955. Anoth er "The Last Supper," hangs in the National Gallery in Washington, D.C. Each Has Case When the jewels are on ex hibition, each is shown in its own especially designed case The cases, of elaborately carved and painted wood and lined with different shades of velvet, are suspended from the ceiling by golden chains. The galleries where the jewels are shown are darkened so that the jewels, in their bril liantly lighted cases, appear to float in space. The collection includes jewels and objects d'art of classical inspiration, including "Swan Lake" and 'Daphne and Apollo," and two extra ordinary mechanical creations "The Living Flower," of gold and diamonds set into malachite which was complet ed last year, and the interna tionally famous "Royal Heart" created in honor of the Coro ntion of Queen Elizabeth II. "The Living Flower" has two blooms with petals shaped as fingers and paved with dia monds. The lower flower opens and closes rhythmically, a signifying, according to Da li, "the life giving light we all seek." "Royal Heart" is a heart of virgin nugget gold, inset with a pulsating heart of rubies, and topped with an exquisitely jeweled crown. "Royal Heart," in Dali's words, signifies the "ruler whose heart beats always for his people."
