Visiting Etiquette
By VIVIAN BROWN
AP Newsfeatures Writer
Q. “IS IT PROPER to visit a
boy’s home for a weekend?” asks
a 16-year-old-g'irl, who explains
her question is prompted because
of Dad’s opposition. “My mother
says it is all right, but my father
js in a real tizzy over the deal.
He says it would be okay if we
were engaged. The boy is 17 years
old. What do you think?”
A. This is a problem that must
be worked out between your par
ents. If the girl’s parents are ac
quainted with the boy’s parents, the
idea usually meets with their ap
proval. Why not get the boy to ask
his father to have a talk with your
father? Perhaps the objections
could be ironed out in that conver
sation.
Tactical Error
And here is one signed “Desper
ate reader”:
Q. “The last time I visited my
girl friend at her family’s summer
home a boy I met at a party in her
house dated me. I found out later
that she is crazy about the boy,
although he doesn’t date her. She
didn’t speak to me when we got
back to school in September, but
made up with me later. Now my
problem is this: Should I see the
boy if he wants to date me. I like
him very much but have not heard
from him since last summer.”
A. Chances are the boy will be
tied up with someone else if you
haven’t heard from him. But you
should settle the question of dat
ing him with your friend before
you get to her house. Ask her
point blank whether she disap
proves of his attentions to you.
Guest Rules
Q. “I am spending two weeks
with my girl friend’s family at the
seashore. My mother says that I
must help the girl’s mother. Is it
necessary to help with dishes ?
Should I make my own bed, arid
sweep my own room. Should I of
fer to help with other household
chores?” a Chicago girl writes.
A. It’s a good idea to settle
something about chores on your
arrival at the home. Even older
people are at loose ends about this
matter, all because the hostess does
not come right out and say that
she’d like to have help. Ask her
point blank to tell you what she
would like to have you do each
day, then there will be no conflict
on that score. Most hostesses feel
you are not doing enough no mat
ter what you do, so if you can get
her on record for certain chores
she should not complain. It will
clear the air for you, and you will
feel free to go and come as you
please and sit down comfortably
even when the hostess is slaving
away.

Collector Finds Bargain in Brooklyn;
$50 Painting Possibly Worth Fortune
By W. G. ROGERS
Associated Press Arts Editor
NEW YORK bT)_An art col
lector guided solely by the popular
phrase, “I know what I like,” has
picked up what may amount to a
small fortune.
The amateur paid $50 in a
Brooklyn shop for a picture which,
according to museum authorities,
may well be worth several thou
sand dollars.
Initials Obscure
The painting, on about one
square foot of canvas, had obscure
ly at the bottom the initials
“R.W.”. On the ornate gilt frame
in black was “R. Wilson.”
Milton H. Berger, the New York
public relations man who made the
purchase, hadn’t even heard of
Wilson and wouldn’t have bought
the work for the sake of a name
anyway. He liked the scene: ruins,
waterfall, mountainous wooded
slopes, a few tiny figures, and a
broad luminous sky.
But he got out his encyclopedia
and learned that Richard Wilson,
called “the father of English land
scape,” was born in 1714 and died
in 1782; belonged to the Royal
Academy, of which he was secre
tary; studied with Francesco Zuc-
carelli, the Florentine; then in
Italy, after a considerable success
with portraits, was persuaded by
the works of Claude Lorrain to
turn to landscape; and eventually
exerted an influence on English
landscape painting and through it
on the French Impressionists —
giving him a significance in our
day out of proportion to his slight
popular reputation.
Italian Setting
Berger said that the subject of
his prize find had been identified
as the falls at Tivoli—Wilson was
in Italy from 1749 to 1755 — and
dated about 1752; and that it ranks
with Wilson paintings in the Dul
wich gallery in London and Ire
land’s National gallery. He has
been told it is even a key item in
the Englishman’s development,
marking the break from Zuccarelli.
Berger said: “At a little shop
in Brooklyn run by an Italian I
have picked up several things I
liked. One day I spent $100 for
two Italian works. But when I got
them home and hung them, I real
ized they didn’t really live with
anything else I had, so I took them
back and asked whether he’d ex
change them.
“He said yes, but it was six
weeks or more before he showed
me this ‘R. Wilson’ which he let

me have for $50, and not long
after he had a $40 work which
struck my fancy and I took it for
the rest of the money and let the
$10 go. The dealer by the way was
pleased for he sold both those I
returned for more than I paid.
“He didn’t tell me where he got
the Wilson, but I suspect he may
have accepted it in payment for
one of the restoring jobs he does.”
Small Collection
How did Berger’s collecting
start? “It began with color repro
ductions. Then slowly I took an in
terest in the purchase of originals,
in part because at my office I was
involved with some art projects
and worked with some artists,
among them Reginald Marsh.
“I have paid as little as $25, and
as much as $1,000. I own perhaps
a score of paintings now, and
among them there may be an Alan
Ramsay, the contemporary Eng
lish portraitist, and a Turner. They
are mostly landscapes and still
lifes in oil.”
