"I Keep in Touch With Your
Splendid Store Almost
Every Day
Hid lis inexhaustible beauty and newness is a
nevcr-failiny: inspiration and refreshment to my
tired mind."
So said a letter that came to the writer a
thousand of miles away from his workshop.
rlo do something uplifting to others as we pass
along is well worth while, if we can send out a
singing note of music to eaVs or eyes or" jaded souls
whose tasks arc also to be creative in whatever
hpheiv they live.
The letter closed with these words: "Beauty
refreshes and strengthens the spirit and produces a
feeling of reverence akin to prayer."
