So. instead of be coming the great artist of her girl hood dreams, Mrs. Stevens carried on a career as a dress designer in Portland, and also taught dress making for many years.

Besides her paint ing, Mrs. Stevens also does some clay modeling and sculpture work. Mrs. btevens has in her posses sion a violin, which she construct ed herself and which she plays. The violin body is made of the wood from an old Brunswick phon ograph, and, of particular interest, the fact that the side pieces are composed of 27 tiny pieces of wood, meticulously fitted together. She stated that "I am almost as proud of this violin as I am of my 'Irish Colleen,' " which, by the way, is actually a portrait of ner 4-year-old niece.
