6 D TliUHSlMY, NOVliMliUR 28, 1JA, MKDFOKD MAIL TRIBUNE- MUDFORD, OREGON Ceramic Figurines Are Popular Art Authentic "Hummel" ceramic figurines have been top-ranking collector's items among fans of alt ages for nearly a quarter century and a favorite gift item. Made exclusively by the W. Goebel Co. of Bavaria, West Germany, they are instantly recognizable by the meticulous craftsmanship, subtle coloring, and the indented "M. I. Hum mel" seen on the base of every piece. The secret of these figurines' anDeal lies in their unaffected childlike, caught-in-action feel ing. Be it a little girl clutcning a few wilted posies, a young boy merrily on the way to mar ket, or a child frolicking with pets, their moods and manners are typical of tiny people the world over, and reflect the time less dreams ot eternal cnila hood. This wide-eyed, ingenuous charm emanates from the ar tist's deep love and under- r aj MATCHED EQUIPMENT His and hers: Color matched bowling equipment and accessories include bull, bag and shoes.

Goebel Co., was one of six children who grew up in a home in Massing. Bavaria, where music and art were as natural as air and water. Born in 1909, she demon strated her talent and imagina tion at an early age, beginning by sketching and painting por traits of her young school friends. Throughout her formal art training, including the Acad emy of Fine Arts in Munich, Berta Hummel continued her warm interest in children, ar tistically as well as personally.

Here are a few "hinting" tips for a homemaker who has her heart set on a major item, an electric dishwasher, for ex ample: Collect dishwasher ads from local papers and national magazines. Show them to your personal Santa Claus and tell him what style and features you especially like. You might choose a built-in model, a port able, or a convertible that can be built in later. Tell him about the choice of cycles for light or heavy loads, the easy-to-load rack designs, and the new powerful washing action that gets dishes really clean, and the hot-air drying that leaves them sparkling. Saves Hands Tell him that an automatic dishwasher will save your hands from that rough redness constant hand-dishwashing gives them. Explain that your hands won't have to do anything ex cept brush food off the plates and place tableware and kitchen utensils in the machine. Don't forget to say that an electric dishwasher uses water much hotter and detergent much stronger than your hands could stand. Explain how much time an automatic dishwasher will save, time vou can spend helping the children with their homework or doing something else that's important to the family. If your children nelp wiln llie disnes, get them to help persuade Daddy that an automatic dish washer would be a wonderful Christmas gift. Since men like to see how appliances work, get him to take a look at a friend's dish washer. Let her or her husband show him how easy it Is to use, how clean and bright it gets Ihe dishes, and how neat the kitchen stays when dirty dishes go right into the dishwasher after every meal. often go hand in hand, Berta Hummel entered the Convent of Siessen near Salgau and took her final vows as a Fran ciscan nun in 1934. In the convent, as Sister M. Innocentia, she continued to make the sketches of children that have since made her and the convent famous throughout the world. - Exclusive rights for repro duction of three-dimensional fig urines from the original art were given to W. Goebel in Bavaria, where a skilled staff of artists began to translate the sketches into the life-like, beau tifully colored, hand finished figures. When first manufactured, every design was approved by Sister Hummel. Now, a duly appointed nun at the convent ap proves new figurines. , Each design is made with painstaking care, from the moulding of individual arms, legs and other pieces; putting them together by hand to make the one perfect unit; slow, care ful glazing processes in various kilns, and meticulous hand coloring. All this is done by craftsmen who are specialists in the particular phase they carry out. , From time to time, new "Hummel" figurines sketched by the artist before her death in 1946, are turned over to the W. Goebel Co. for their inter pretation in ceramics. New Range Makes Holiday Helper Harried homemakers need all the help they can get during the holiday season. One way a thoughtful husband can lend a hand without lifting a finger is by presenting his wife with a new automatic electric range just before Christmas. With its automatic timing and accurate heat controls, a new electric range will save her from constant pot-watching and those tiresome treks to the kitchen to make sure every thing's all right. It'll also as sure her of consistently good re sults. Christmas dinner cooked in a new electric range with two ovens will be just as lavish and succulent as Grandma's used to, but Mother will have far more time to spend with the family instead of in a steaming kitchen. Those double ovens will be especially handy during the weeks before the holidays for making pies, cookies and cakes to give as Christmas presents. Baking them in big batches in two automatically controlled ovens saves hours of kitchen time. And it's no trick to make Christmas candy on a new elec tric range with a thermostatic ally controlled surface olement. It gives exactly the right heat a must in candy making. Cleaning up after a big cook ing spree will be easy, too, since the new electric ranges stay cleaner during cooking and are designed to be easy to clean.
