Mrs. McBratney, member of the Hand Weavers and Spinners Andrew The Reg Davis Column A recent letter to The Review complained of my devotion to Sidney’s Safeway store. However, as the writer apparently is closely related to a smaller store owner, I can see the reason for his ire. But I must make it clear that the reason for doing most of my shopping at Safeway is not only for the convenience of not having to chase all over town for One particular item, while my carton of ice cream oozes slowly out of its package and all over my car seat. No, the real reason I shop there is that for a long time now I have had my lecherous eyes on one particular lady therin, (that should keep ’em all guessing for a while) and when I can summon up enough courage I intend asking her if she’s available. _ So you see, it’s not always the produce I’m in there for after all. Did not someone sometime say ‘‘Man does not live by bread alone’’? * * Ed My once grandiose hope of becoming a well known artist was dashed to the ground last week when reading that the winning exhibit at the 26th annual Vancouver Island jury show was a canvas painted all over with black paint!! One of the judges comments on it, that ‘‘you just have to keep looking’? makes me wonder just how long one would have to look at a square panel of black nothing before you wondered what you were looking for. It seems these days that any idiot can get a canvas, Drop DL14550 paint on it from a_ high altitude, get a load of monkeys with paint on their feet to stomp around on the canvas, or, as in one case the ‘artist’ framed the rag he used to clean his brushes and sold it for |” some fantastic price. Believe it or not, these things have happened. Seems the thing to do is to. paint something that doesn’t look like anything then convince some sucker it does look like something, and they, rather than admit they don’t understand it, buy it! I have the pleasure, one night a week, of instructing a class of beginners in portrait painting. A few have a natural talent, and don’t need my interference, while others find it doesn’t come so easy, yet their determination and dedication to master it is amazing. ° Already they are turning out work that can put some of the junk that is passed off as ‘art’ to shame. But most of them will have to be content only with the pleasure they derive from their work themselves, however good they get, for what hope do they have when some untalented con artist will frame a piece of black painted canvas or something equally as ridiculous and become an FREE TREES Trees will be supplied to Central Saanich — residents requesting them for boulevard planting council agreed at a public works committee meeting held Monday, Ald. Percy Lazarz, chairman of the public works committee, recommended the municipality supply and plant trees in certain boulevards upon the residents’ request. The only condition that must be met is the residents agree to completely maintain the trees after they are planted, ‘We do not want to hire any staff to look after these trees in the future,’’ said Lazarz, The public works supervisor, Gary Rogers, informed council there were approximately 450 lots that such a ruling would apply to. He also suggested the cost of supplying and planting one tree would amount to about 20 dollars, This decision took place after Farrell) Cres, residents requested council plant trees in the area's boulevards, Mr. & Mrs, R, Wright, Kamloops, B.C. spent the week-end with the latters aunt, Mrs. James Easton, Seventh Street, instant success. While on the subject of art, if you haven’t visited Truffles Gallery in Sidney - you should. It’s small, but it has a fine assortment of paintings, many from our local artists. Rona Fluney is trying hard to make a success of it on her own and she deserves credit for all the © time and effort she puts into it. Drop in sometime - its worth a visit, and you just might find that Christmas present for your ‘someone _ special’ hanging on the wall. Murray Christian’s new store on Beacon opened Saturday, with a lot of people in there admiring both the store and the good selection of furniture: like appliances and other goodies. There was lots of free coffee and doughnuts and several chances of a free draw for some of the items. Although his products, service and personality always have been tops, the new location should put him in the: public’s eye a little better. Good Luck Murray - hope you make lots of money! * * * Shouldn’t be too long before those Christmas trees make their appearance down the middle of Beacon Avenue. Nice to see - though 1 still think they would be better on the curb. Situated as they are, people are tempted to use them as crosswalks and quite often step out from behind one into the path of a car, However, | guess the powers to be will wait until someone gcts clobbered before thinking of the hazard it presents.
