Dimensions of Prayer Lecture Series Topic Dr Gertrude Boyd Crane who has lectured often in Medford in recent years, will begin a scries on "The Dimen sions of Prayer" at First Methodist church, Wednesday, February 27. The series will continue through Sunday, March 3, with duplicate morn ing and evening lectures in order that employed persons may attend. Dr. Crane will be the speak er on Tuesday, February 26, for the meeting of the Wo man's Society of Christian Service which begins at 9:30 a.m. in the Meeker Memorial chapel with morning devo tions. This is follewed by a business session at 10 a.m. and Dr. Crane will speak on "Bib lical Foundations of Missions" at 1 1 a.m. Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. she will be the guest of the Meth odist Men at the pancake supper they are sponsoring that evening. H. P. Jewett. ticket chairman of the event, extends an invitation to all interested person to attend. Dr. Crane was born in Helena. Montana, and was educated at Montana Wes leyan, Northwestern Univer sity, Garrett Biblical and Union Theological Seminaries. She is now living in Willam ette View Manor, Portland. but prior to this her home was in Forest Grove where she has been at Pacific university since 1938, having served part of that time as chaplain of the university. She has served four years as secretary of spiritual life for the Oregon Conference, Woman's Society of Christian Service, and has presented this study series to many groups in the Western United States this fall and winter. This study on "The Dimen sions of Prayer" is one of four studies prepared by the Wo man's Division of Christian Service of the Methodist church this year and is being sponsored locally by the Wo man's Society of Christian Service and the two Weslcyan Service guilds. The scries of lectures is open to the public and all interested person the size of Medford under such circumstances. Because of the wide interest in the ex hibit, it is being held over through the first week of March. California newspapers have carried articles concerning the show, and as a result two residents of that state, Mr. and Mrs. H. P. Struble, Los Molinos, Calif., stopped in Medford Tuesday to visit Rogue gallery. They were en route to Coos Bay, Ore., to visit Mrs. Struble's sister. Mrs. Struble, a native Ore gonian, is an amateur artist and in recent years the Strubles have visited gal leries from Mexico north throughout the West. They expressed great interest In the exhibit here. In recent days many school children and student artists from valley schools have vis ited the gallery. These have been from Medford High school, from Lincoln and Roosevelt elementary schools and Crater High school. Although of an entirely dif ferent nature than the Rogue gallery exhibit, the one-man show at Fontaine's is well worth a visitor's time. The story of Mrs. Stalcy's inter est in art and her work as an artist is the story of thou sands of other American adults. Mrs. Staley began to paint as a recreation and a hobby and has developed to the point where her work has attracted considerable atten tion in this area. Mrs. Staley's paintings, mostly oils, are notable for color and vigor. She is not afraid to use bold color with imagination and sense and the results win the attention and respect of the viewer. This show has both abstract and representational works. Because the Stalcys recently spent a year in southern Cali fornia, some of the paintings were inspired by the sail boats, water, palms and other typical material of that area. The paintings are some what crowded in Mr. Fon taine's limited showing space, and the visitor should not at tempt to see the show too quickly or the results will be confused. Of course, this needs to be said of any worth while exhibit. Visits to a gal lery or museum are much more rewarding when there is time to study and absorb the beauty and message. William Fontaine, who took over the former .studio of Eu gene Bennett when the latter moved to new quarters in Jacksonville, does framing and is at present busy fram ing some of the Turner prints in the Halverson collection. Since it is not often that he has an opportunity to handle such works of art, Mr. Fon taine said yesterday that he is especially enjoying the task. Later he will do some restoration on the handsome carved frame of the Van Dyke which Mr. Halverson owns. Mr. Fontaine's artistic wood carvings are known throughout the area, and some are on display at the gallery. O.S. Veterans Bridge Club Announces Winners White City-Mrs. P. A.
