I PAGE 8 I THE TORCH I | A department conducted tor The Warren County | Memorial library I ; By MABEL DAVIS H I The librarian M J fcii n i a i i j' The Library's new assembly room i j was used most delightfully and in- L structively on Tuesday; Catherine ( Mason Moseley, a recent graduate , of Meredith College, gave us per- ; mission to exiiibit her studies done , in the Fine Arts department there. J The assembly room was open to the public, a number of people call- ^ ed and punch and wafers were serv- } ed. f The studies included still life 1 groups in oil, designs for textiles, < costume designs, pencil and charcoal drawings and decorative paint- , ings done in tempera. Everyone ( enjoyed the pictures, and naturally, , everyone had a favorite, or a group , of favorites. Of the oil studies a , still life group of copper tankard f and a bowl of fruit before a cur- j tain was particularly pleasing, due to its rich coloring; and of the tempera paintings, which were the highlights of the exhibit, Calla Lil ' - ^ a nralu lies, uoiiecuuxi unu x-uiiioctioo ( especially good, having been exhibited in Raleigh, Greenville and j Kinston during the past year with j great success. Calla Lillies was , particularly interesting to students , of art because of its delightfully ir- regular outline due to its background ] of silver leaf applied after the } painting was done. Catherine ad- , mits that tempera is her favorite ] medium and that a flat decorative ] manner of painting is her favorile style. . Following the modern trend to- | ward individual framing mhde a , number of the studies even more at- j tractive. Wide wooden molding j was colored and shellacked for a j number of the oil studies, very par- , ticular attention being given to the : coloring. For the tempera paint- ( ings natural wood, painted wood , and gold frames were used. Good taste in frames is to a painting what good taste in clothes is to a person. As a woman may be transformed by the proper gown and ac- , cessories, so may a picture be : transformed bv the DroDer mat and . frame. Framing is in itself an absorbing and fascinating phase of I the art, and we are glad to have had good examples of it on exhibit in the library. "The Twenty-ninth of May Is Oak Apple Day" History and legend tell us that the English King, Charles the Second, after the battle of Worcester, spent forty days dodging Oliver Cromwell's troopers, know as the Ironsides, while hoping and watching for an opportunity to get to France where he would find welcome and sanctuary. Oliver's men j mav or mav not have been worthv , of the surname "Ironsides," but , they were certainly iron in their determination to capture the young ( "Son of Belial" Charles, and so hot { on his track, that when in the i neighborhood of the park Boscobel, he, knowing how close they were ] and seeing a bushy topped oak, ; clambered up with most unkingly j haste, to where the foliage would hide him. The good worthy knights of days s gone by had pollarded (topped) ] their oaks, in order that they would , send out lusty young shoots, of ( which good springy bows could be ; made, capable of sending the yardlong arrows, with force enough to | settle the matter, on many a hard fought field in France, or any other place, in those days of very far back indeed, and when might was right and when forward looking patriots, of adventurous turn, were feeling, like some peoples are feeling today, that they really must have more territory. Well! Cromwell's men stopped for a few minutes rest and refreshments in the shade of the pleasant friendly oak, and discussed what hould be the next step in the hunt before they moved on. After they had left Charles clambered down, grateful for the safety afforded him by the tree afterwards to be known as the I Boscobel Ooak, or sometimes as the "Royal Oak." Of course everybody knows that Charles escaped all right, and as all this occurred on the date I have given here, you also know why the twenty-ninth of May is "Oak Apple Day," when the sons of St. George wear an apple, or at least a leaf from an oak tree in his lapel, and if you would like to know what sort of a king Charles II was, borrow Peverill of the Peak from the Library. You will, I promise, meet some interesting people in its pages, among them a Queen who had a man hanged as a traitor within her rather small realm. J. W. L. NEGROES TO (Continued from page U The negro Parent-Teacher association was the original force behind the movement to establish a community center here for mem Warren ton, North Care bers of the negro race, and it was r through this organization that funds were raised to start the pro- ] * ject. Later a charter was procurred from the state and the work was carried forward under a corpora- , tion entitled, Warren County Library and Community Center. The white members of the board of trustees of this corporation are J. Edward Allen, H. A. Moseley and John Kerr Jr. Both labor and material, such as firewood, are being contributed by legroes interested in the welfare of ;heir race. Dr. H. P. Cheatham, superintendent of the Colored Orphanage, has also interested himself in this work and has from two ,o four boys working here each week without charge, in the makng of brick. He also loaned the -r ~ f/M. I negroes oi nnumi a gaugcu im jetting the soil from the ground. White friends have also contribut;d funds. On July 4th, there will be a coun;y-wide picnic in the Wortham jrove, to which the public is incited to come. Barbecue, lemonide, ice cream, fruit and candies will be offered for sale, and the proceeds will be applied to the juilding fund. * JURY UNABLE TO I -v (Continued From Page 1) e ;ey and D. C. Hall. ? Before going into the Weston- * Dean case, John Watson and Lee " Perry, negroes, were tried on charges of assault with a deadly veapon and transporting whiskey.
