* V Work of Artist to Be Displayed Park Picnic Enjoyed By Group Monday Jimmie James, whose paint ings will be on exhibition at Pete Brunsman's Emporium July 31, is an unusually gifted person. Not only is he the outstanding crayon painter of his time, but he is an able writer, a scientist, naturalist and an authority on marine zoology. When the submarine gardens were first installed at Depoe Bay, Jimmie James went down in a diving suit and collected the sea anemones, sea urchins and other sea plants for the aequatic gardens. To anyone who has seen those aequatic garden at Depoe Bay, they look like beau- tit u !, under water flowers, out in fact they are all liv ing marine ani mal life and feed on small fish and other aquatic lif?. Mr. James The Old Man =,with On The Hill U S' ^orestry Sfr vice for several years. For some time he was stationed in New Mexico and there he became interested in the hieroglyphs of the Pueblo Indians and the primitive drawing on the walls of the caves from which he later drew many of his inspi rations. He was well liked by the Navaho Indians who named him "Taha-hato” (has no hat) from his habit of going bare headed. For two years he was stationed in Utah. While there he wrote a series of articles ^>n nature subjects and animal life in the high places for the Salt Lake Tribune. The publishers were so welled pleased with his stories that they asked him to join their regular staff. For some time Jimmie James was in the restaurant business and established iThe Pin? Cone Cafe at the west entrance of Yellowstone park. The walls were adorned with lk antlers, the horns of Texas longhorn steers, old oxbows, wagon wheels, flint lock muskets, tomahawks and other trophies of the Old West. At one time Bill Hart and Will Rogers were both on location near there making a picture. “Tho Pine Cone” soon became a fa vorite rend:zvous of Hollywood celebrities. Will Rogers was es pecially fond of a certain west ern stew that Jimmie James NATAL — Among those who enjoyed a picnic dinner at Dass park Monday evening were Mrs. George Devine and sons, Billy, Stanley and Victor; Mr. and Mrs. Dean Porter and Judy; Mr. and Mrs. Max Oblack, Larry and Maxine; Diana Pesio; J.

Stanley is on leave home from Texas. Mrs. Ray Taylor and the baby arrived home Sunday. served. He introduced Bill Hart to it and both became regular patrons. No phony, dude cowboys those two; they were real, down, to-earth men and knew their West. One day they got into a heated argument about the char acteristics of a coyote — whether he ran with his feet all together like a jackrabbit, or singly, like a running horse. Jimmie James was called in to arbitrate. Bill Hart was a big man and Jimmie did not want to offend him. He also knew what Will could do with that snakey, educated lariat of his. Jimmie was definitely on the spot and took the only way out he knew; he hastily drew a sketch of a coyote in full flight and left those two worthies to figure out for themselves.
