Beaver Banter By Rhoda Sullivan What can be said about Christmas, That hasn't been said then and now, To you, fond wishes, good health, and good cheer; I'll say it again anyhow. The magic and mystery Of all we hold dear, Seems to happen again At this time of the year. On a snowy, cold night, If you look up in the sky; It's certain you'll see That sleigh flying by. ' The sound of those sleigh bells Comes to your ear; He's stopping at your house!; You've been so good this year. Friends at your fireside, Children playing with toys, Good smells from the kitchen Only add to your joys. The birth of a Babe In that year long ago, Brings a profound hope for Peace In this world that we know.

Christmas is the time to celebrate that light. People do it by decorating Jesus called Himself "the ' trees, and the front of their homes with Christmas lights.

C. 68, g 18, 1986 84713-DECEM- BER SINGLE COPY 25 Interview With An Artist By Shirley Howard The house, one of Beaver's early, graceful red brick homes, exudes charm. You open a slender iron gate, walk through a beautiful iron fence, you step up to a long porch that drips gingerbread. You ring the doorbell and are ushered in. As you enter you notice that the walls of the house are easily a foot thick. You enter the world of Marilyn and Paul Anderson, another, of Beaver's artistic couples. 'f Their house displays their talents. The Andersons were married, joined families, and moved into the red brick house some "15 or 16 years ago." The house has been restored to its original dignity, providing a warm and comfortable home. "This was really a family project," Marilyn recalled. "Paul opened up the attic and put dormer windows in to make cozy bedrooms for the kids. All the members of the family worked. We even had kids on the roof shingling." Whenever possible they used authentic material, using original brick to complete the fireplace in the family room. Where additions were made, they were made with taste and good judgment. The result is a comfortable, liveable home, and one of the most interesting in the city. The occupants of the house are interesting, too. The attitude of cooperation that prevailed in the restoring of the home, is also responsible for Marilyn getting her start as an artist. She tells it this way. "I had sketched a little as I grew up, but I really started painting after I married Paul. I'd see a picture I liked, and say 'I wish I could paint like that.' " Marilyn continued. One day Paul said, "I am getting sick and tired of your moaning about it. It's time you did something about it." Paul went down and bought me the., supplies. We had a neighbor next door who painted. Before I knew it, Paul had talked to her about helping me get started. One morning she called and had me come over. We spent the whole day painting. She taught me. She would paint on her canvas, then I would paint on mine. She continued to teach me, but she moved away before I finished my picture. I was a while before I advanced beyond this one painting. Then Gwen Lund and I took some classes from Hugh O'Key. I also took some classes from Julie White." "I like to paint a variety of she added. "I like subjects," I have scenery, the done flowers, but my favorite subject is rustic buildings. I am really still searching. I haven't quite found my niche as far as pictures are concerned. I prefer to use oils. I have used acrylics in my toll painting, but when I'm painting a picture, I like to use oils." Paul, who owns Fishlake Lumber Company, is also very artistic. This is very evident in the way the home has been developed. Paul took an early interest in the black walnut trees growing around Beaver. He continued his story. "Someone would call up and say they had a walnut tree that needed to be taken out. We traded off. Walnut wood is a very dense wood. We had to learn to dry it carefully, so it wouldn't crack." Paul has used this local black walnut about his house. He had Craig Davis build furniture for them from it. The coffee tables and end tables blend comfortably in the family room. Paul has another hobby. He collects antique glass. His favorite are old jars. The soft blues and purples of the old glass shine as they sit displayed in their big east window. In addition to Paul, the whole family is creative. "All our kiks are artistic. They are all very good at handicrafts. Yet each child has a particular area where they shine. They each do their own thing." Marilyn added. The Anderson's are very family oriented. In fact, the family is a factor in why Marily has not painted more. "We have 20 grandchildren We love to and 5 spend time with them. Our family is our delight," said the young grandmother. Marilyn is a busy lady. In addition to her family responsibilities, she is a working LPN. She recalled. "When I first wanted to get married, my dad (Kay Ashworth) refused to give permission until I promised to graduate from high school. This was important to him, because he had yet to accomplish this goal himself. I said that 1 would, if he would," she laughed. "We made an agreement. I graduated right after my first baby was born. I called up dad and said 'Okay, Dad, now it's your There are two new condominiums at Mt.

She attended Southern Utah State College where she received her LPN degree. She worked in the hospital for eleven years and has worked in the offices of local medical doctors for nine years. "I haven't spent as much time painting as I could," she continued, "what with working and being a grandmother." It is hoped she will find more time for this in the future. Her work is fresh and bright. Her colors are clear. She is improving with each picture. She is developing an easy, relaxed style that shows promise for the future. She is one of Beaver's brightest young artists. Marilyn Anderson's work is now on display at the Belknap School Art Gallery. It will be displayed during the month of December. The public is invited to visit the exhibit during school hours. THE HANGER A IS YSAH WITH 196, A COULD BIRTH7 THIS WAS OF CUR MEMORY AND FIND IS THIS POSSIBLY BABY SMALL CHILD?
