the past art was part of life. Today it seems to be in a corner rather than in the midst of everyday livingo 11
Although oil paintings are dominant in his work, Herman Rasker is not limiting himself to that by any means. Water color, conte crayon and pen and inks are among the techniques in which he draws, and in his living room is a single piece of sculpture to give evidence of his search for mediums of expression. Memory is primary in his approach to a painting. "I remember moods strongly, 11 he said. Althoughhe may do a few sketcheshefindsthat in attacking his canvas his recollections and feelings free him to achieve the mood and do not hold him to an exacting sketch.
Generally he works in an unheated room over his garage ou Fembank Avenue, and when the cold is too much for him, he descends to the basement where an untrainedpuppyhasgiven him no helpful inspiration this past winter. "I'm sloppy when I paint and the few times I've
worked in the kitchen were not appreciated by the family, 11 he went on to add. However his wife, Helen, and daughters Laurel and Eileen take pleasure in his paintings and each has her definite favorites.
Mr. Rasker says that he has not felt he was ready to show his paintings before, although he has sold many of his canvasses. "Now I feel I have reached a somewhat established style, that I have discovered my own limitations, and knowing the size of my talent, I am working within it. II

and his wife have been in Holland, Italy and Paris. To her it was part business and part pleasure (she runs "Town and Tweed"), for him it was primarily pleasure and the art galleries were principal stops.
A few years ago they took a C arribbe an cruise and Herm was particularly impressed with the sculpture he saw in Haiti. He brought home a wooden piece strognly African in flavor and feels though no other countries in the area have developed anything in the arts, for some reason a strong art has blossomed in Haiti. The best work he was not able to bring home as the artist worked in extremely brittle clay and it broke too easily to try to transport.
In the field of sculpture, Mr. Rasker pointed out that abstract sculpture has a "closer family resemblence, 11 that the artists working in that field are moving along more similiar lines and direction than those working in abstract painting. The power and strength and feeling in sculpture seems to be similiar to the "schools" of the past and the artists working in it have a more definite idea of where they are going.
For himself, he finds abstract painting very exciting but as yet feels it is not for him. "At the moment, abstract painting is very experimental," he said. "The artists are still on the rungs of the ladder and have not yet found the final step and, in contrast to the sculptures, each artist is working on a private tangent, " Hermhastried a few in this vein but he has not been satisfied with them and feels that his paintings have not yet moved in that direction.
At the moment his style is in the direction of realism with strong impressionistic influence.

A Hamagrael art teacher has ~ one man show at the Albany Institute of History and Art.
Mrs. Ethel M. Christensen's exhibit of paintings in the modern style opened last week for a three weeks run ending June 15.
Working on large canvases, in powerful strokes and brilliant colors, Mrs. Christensen prings a strength and excitement to her variety of statements on canvas. Her paintings vary from what might be termed straight abstract with titles "Pink and White" and "Black White and Red11 to those which though certainly not realistic, remember their origin and in many cases are termed "Landscape."
The straight abstract are exceedingly pleasing in color and design although the ,layman may not fully reach their meaning. Those whose theme may be brought back closer to reality find the eye constantly discovering new facets within the painting. Throughout there is humor and comment -whether it is the contrast in the two entitled "Man's Head 11 or in seeing the deepness of the forest.
Mrs. Christensen, known by many children who have taken part 1n her classes this year at Hamagrael School and by enthusiastic mothers who have responded to their children's excitementover their adventures in art with her, lives on Kenwood Avenue.
During July a portion of Mrs. Christensen'swork will be on exhibit in the Delmar Public Library.
Organization activities are featured in the "Will You Be There?" column. Make sure your notice i's in one week in advance of publication.

Recent brides of this area have been Eleanor Goodrich Littlefield, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward W. Littlefield, of Albright Place, Delmar, to Edward J. Dirrane, Jr., son of Mr. a~d
Mrs. E.J. Dirrane of Bronx. They were married in Ascension Church in New York. After a honeymoon in Miami, they will live in Manhatten.
And another marriage of interest is that of Sandra Joan Aylward to Richard Taft Greene. The bride is the daughter of Mrs. Laurence P. Ellis of. Elsmere and the bridegroom is the Mr. and Mrs. R.C. Greene of SardRoad. Rev. George. Phelps, Jr., officiated at the ceremony May 17inWelles Memorial Chapel of Westminister Presbyterian Church. They are living in Media, Penn.
And an interesting ceremony 'way up Anchorage, Alaska, was the marriage of Pat Drumm and Clyde R. Lewis. This took place in April, but is of particular interest to loa.ds of Delmar people, since Pat taught atHamagrael Elementary School. Her father is Assemblyman Willard Drumm of Niverville, and since last fall she has been teaching at the Nunska Valley Elementary in Anchorage. The· marriage took place in the First Presbyterian Church and was a festive occasion attended by 150 guests. The couple then decided a honeymoon in the 50th state would be in order. So, after visiting San Francisco, they took off for Hawaii.
* * * Congratulations, too, are in order to Ginny Eels of Winne Road, Delmar, recently installed as president of the Women's Auxiliary of St. Paul 1s EpiscopalChurch. June 2was tht; date, and the ceremony began with Holy Communion in the church at 12:10 p.m. Luncheon followed later on at the University Club, at which officers and secretaries presented their annual reports.

Well, this past week we had a wonderful telephone visit with Betty Geurtze, retiring president of the Bethlehem Business and Professional Women's Club and we'll share one of the many personable incidents she has had during this celebration. This leiter came from a young man, age 12, who resides in Albany 1 N.Y. and he wished to add to his collection a Bethlehem 'wooden nickel'. • • Upon signing his name we quote him and "May God Bless You 1se. 11
This we think is quite a collector's item too.
The Business and Professionals Women have had many appeals for their nickels and have sent them 'to Syracuse, down to the New York area·, to Hawaii, many foreign countries, and to Peru. If you all have any further contacts, let the local group know about the different sections invnlve1l. We know thcy1d love to hear from everybody. Incidentally they are well into their second order of 5000 nickels already.
