The sculptor needed a wall built "around his garden; a mason was found who was interested in bas-relief, so the wall was built, and a bas-relief was exchanged. Another 'bas-relief found a home with a carpenter who exchanged garden furniture. The captain of a schooner loved pictures and wanted to make a collection. He offered vacation trips to artists and soon made many friends among them, many of which have now become rather eminent. Farmers offer geese, hams, cheese, and fowls as well as country vaca- tions for the children. Packages of food, when food was scarce during the war, were worth their weight in pictures or sculpture. A friend of the writer had a chil- dren's clothing store and supplied an artist with ¥ large family with clothes for pictures. An 'Unfair' Exchange Customers come from varied homes for the exhibitions. Depart- ment stores want pictures for their Copenhagen--More than 25 years ago a novel association was formed in Denmark to dispose, mainly by barter, of pictures and sculpture for goods or service, The association known as "Art for Goods" has about 250 artist members who, for membership, must have exhibited in Art Ex- hibitions in Denmark for.at least five years. "Art for Goods" has a lady director, Mrs. Clara Oest, whose work is to bridge the gulf between the artist and buyer, or the one who has a service to ren- der. The success of the association has now reached a point where it has won government support and recognition. . When an artist comes to the di- rector for someone who can sup- ply goods or services, if a suitable buyer is not on her lisf she runs her finger down the columns of the telephone book of trades and finds a suitable firm, or person, and then makes the contact. A plumber was looking for a good picture and Mrs. Oest showed him over the 'exhibition of art and sculpture, but nothing d to workrooms, and their managers arrange for these in return for clothes, which the wives and daughters of the artists come and choose. Trade-union leaders visit "Art for Goods" and sometimes groups of workers come to choose a picture. A shabbily dressed party came to Mrs. Oest. They had saved a year's profit from their canteen and wanted a painting for it. Professional men are glad to ex- Plaza -- "Cinderella" -- 1:40, 3:50, 5:45, 7:40, 9:50.

She telephoned an artist who needed chromium fit- tings for his home, and arrange- ment was made for the plumber to visit the artist at his studio. "If you don't like anything there at the studio, there is no further ob- ligation on your part," said the di- rector. Satisfactory Arrangement The plumber and artist liked | each other, and it ended in an ar- rangement being made satisfac- tory to both parties. There is another story of an ex- COMING!

An artist promised a picture to the doctor when a baby was to be born. "I should have two pictures," said the doctor. "It was twins!" Works of art can also be paid in cash. The artist always puts his own price, averaging about $100. Portraits may be ordered and paid for with goods. Rarely are any pictures sold again, but a tailor who had bought from an artist whose work had increased 10-fold in value did find himself in such financial difficulties that he had to sell some of his pictures. He ex- plained the situation to the artist and received his consent, During the war years when there were few wares to be exchanged, except for food, cash sales were plentiful. The fee charged to the artist is 15 per cent if the sale is for cash, 10 per cent if not. Mrs. / Oest is glad that goods sales are at present rather frequent, for in this way the artists and the cus- tomers, suppliers, and professional men of the community, learn to know each other with benefits for each that go far beyond immediate gain, The idea has spread, having been copied in Paris, Berlin, Stockholm, Oslo, and Capetown, while recently the Dutch minister of education imade inquiries about "Art for Goods." 5 vo/97~ =~ DRIVE OUT TO THE 2 Miles West On Double Lane Highway wy 5 TONIGHT and FRIDAY |oNE A gs0 08H GEORGE COULOURIS be) TECHNICOLOR SMOKE IN THE LOGES Clifton WEBB CRAIN HEAPER 20 OZEN SCHUBERT 108S Small in size; exceptional tone and volume; walnut veneer in art finish.
