The
NOTION COLUMN
By O. Haskins, Herself.
We went to call at the home of a
friend of ours a while back. The
Mistress of that particular realm let
us in with the conventional ceremon
ies only we thought she appeared
very absent-minded, rather preoccu
pied, as if the present world of
guests and other realities were a
thing apart from her life. Sue added,
partly in explanation and perhaps
partly in apology for her lack of in
terest in our appearance, “We are
looking at the picture."
Now we ourself know' very little
about the theories of Art; we only
know what pleases our eye, and we
are not particularly concerned wheth
er our eye can tilt at a picture with
true critical precision or not. We
might also add that we despise those
women who join Art Clubs to sop up
some of that glittering aragon of art
standard!—who join just as a pose,
you know. We ourself can’t even be
modern enough to make crown nor
feet of some of this cubist apprecia
tion. We like the picture that sets
something humming inside us, but we
can’t give the appropriate name for
the humming; we don’t know what
means the artist employs to secure
that much appreciation from us,
bourgeoise as it may be to admit
it. And worst of all, we seem de
lightfully happy in our ignorance.
But—we left ourself standing at
the door of a friend’s house. She
took us into her livingroom, and she
indicated a chair we might have.
There were others there, people we
didn’t know. They didn’t appear to
notice us, nor did our hostess deem in
troductions in order. They were all
looking at the picture.
We looked too. It seemed like a
very ordinary oil of an old man, when
we first gave our attention to it. We
sat a few minutes, hoping with a lot
of telepathy mixed in with the hop
ing, that soon somebody would speak
up and tell us what we ought to ad
mire in that picture. But nobody did.
Nobody said anything. Everybody
’Was looking at the picture.
Well, we do not need Mrs. Post to
tell us that if we can’t be interested
we can at least be still, so we sat
quietly enough—like everybody else—
looking at the picture.
Then we noticed forth efirst time,
the hands of this old man in the pic
ture. We would say in" our inexperi
enced way that they were well done,
they had such expressive characteris
tics, hands that seemed to be alive,
sensitive and accustomed to perform
ing the beautiful acts of a beautiful
life.
We looked farther up the picture to
see if the face thrilled us as those
hands did. Anyway, furtive glances
at the others in the room informed us
that everybody else was looking a
that face.
How can one describe that face?
That craggy brow, behind which sure
ly some stronghold of thought lay se
rene; those eyes, as still—why, as
.still as God, and almost as deep; that
mouth, sympathetic, almost like a
woman’s and yet lips over which re
buke might tumble in vast confusion
of strength to route a wrong or warn
an erring one.
Maybe those hands wrote, maybe
they played some of those ageless
bits of music, maybe they themselves
painted, interpreting that attractive
face. We do not know. We only
know that after we had spent an hour
before that picture, we felt as if we
had been baptised somehow, as if
we could never again think an ordi
nary thought, or sound a trite word.
We even think we staggered a bit as
we realized it was time to go.
Oiir hostess didn’t go to the door
with us as we left; something in our
eyes perhaps told her we didn’t
want her. We left looking at the
picture.
Outside, the sun glared at us, the
rattle of the city bruised us, the urge
of the busy day trampeled on us. We
caught our breath—and hastened to
make up the time we had lost—if we
had lost any!
But that is uor idea of the way to
enjoy art.

Cut the Cost of Production
Profit in dairying depends to a great extent on reducing the
cost per gallon of producing milk. Cows on pasture slip down
in milk flow. Experienced dairymen have found they can pro
duce more milk at less cost per gallon, by feeding a little
concentrate.
With Cow Chow you can cut the cost of pro
duction per gallon, you can put your cows in better
condition and get a longer milking period.
Hundreds of dairymen are
using Cow Chow to lower
milk costs. Cow Chow contains —^^"***’7*
iust the right proteins to balance HMM A. DI
grass and to make it produce
more milk.
