Mrs. P. Nelson's Artistic Ability Provides Hobby MEEK Mrs. Paul (Marjorie) Nelson of the Meek community is not one to let idle time lie heavy on her hands. Although her family is grown, she has no trouble keep ing busy. Mrs. Paul Nolso i . . . Works of Art Marjorie, an artist in her own' right, has long entertained audi-1 ences with her “chalk drawings.” 1 The chalk drawings were given during the singing of patriotic and religious songs and many an audi 1 ence has been spellbound by the | added emphasis which the draw ' ings give to the familiar tunes. She is taking a correspondence course in art and has painted some very beautiful canvasses. She says she prefers scenes and animals for her subjects, but occasionally does pictures like the one shown in the photo of her father-in-law, Frank Nelson. Mrs. Nelson also expresses her creative ability in baking wedding cakes. Although many of her cakes are of traditional design, she some times gives a free reign to her imagination and whips up a cake in the shape of a basket, a shoe or a train complete with engine, coal car, flat car, passenger cars and a caboose. To give the reader a little idea of size of the undertaking the cake shown in the picture above contains: 10 cups cake flour, 16 cups sugar, 86 eggs whites, 10 teaspoons of cream of tartar, 8 teaspoons of vanilla and two tea spoons of almond extract. Ten cups of powdered sugar went into the glaze and 33 cups of powdered sugar were put into the frosting. Fresh cut roses were substitut ed for the make believe variety. And Marjorie will go to any length to Insure that the cake gets to its destination in perfect shape. She carried one of her cakes on her lap all the way to Miltonvale Kan., to be sure It was In |>erfect shape when it ar rived. Grandma Moses (and Marjorie Nelson) have a vast army of fol lowers in the field of creative art. Although it takes many forms of expression it allows the artist the exchange of happiness and con tentment as opposes to the miseries so often associated with the lack of interest so often found in homes where there is “nothing to do.” Try the Frontier Want Ads CUSTOM BALING Twine Tie Large Capacity Baler Side Delivery Rake Furnished Wilmer E.
