New display The new display in the case at the library consists of a number of early American decorative arts pieces created by Myrl Young of Dallas. She is a native of Fernbrook and. has resided in Dallas for many years, Her late husband was the well-known Ken- neth Young, to whose memory the park on Burridale Street in Dallas is dedicated. Her sons Damon and Bruce are graduates of Dal- las High School. Damon resides in Centermoreland with his fam- ily, and Bruce and his family live in Drums in the Conyngham Val- ley. Myrl first became aware of the name Helen Gross and saw her beautifully decorated items at the library auction in 1960. In 1967 she was accepted into one of Helen's classes and, she says, was naive enough to think that Fall auction, golf tourney fundraisers she would take a series of eight lessons and emerge as a finished product. Now she knows that she could spend a lifetime learning the history and the many tech- niques involved, and stillnot know it all. Since her original lessons with Helen, Myrl has studied and worked with other teachers and artists in Pennsylvania, the Thou- sand Islands in New York State, and several New England states. A milestone in her life was achiev- ing membership in the Brazer Guild of The Historical Society of Early American Decoration, Inc. Applicants must submit two deco- rated items which meet a judging committee’s exacting standards of technical and historical accu- racy. “And, so here I am, over 30 years later, still learning and en- joying”, Myrl says.
