Jun 14, 2018'That brick red frock with flowers everywhere': painting Katherine Mansfield
Rice is only mentioned in passing in the many biographies of the writer. Mansfield dedicated her New Zealand story of 1912, "Ole Underwood", to her, Katherine summing up her warm feelings for Anne in a letter to Murry on 23-24 May:Drey and Anne came last evening and we sat up late talking of Anne's life … You know she is an exceptional woman – so gay, so abundant, in full flower just now and really beautiful to watch. She is so healthy and you know when she is happy and working she has great personal "allure" – physical "allure" ‒ I love watching her.Mansfield concludes this passage by reassuring Murry: "Of course she is not in the least important." Perhaps this was a coded message to him that, although Katherine was attracted to the artist, Rice and Mansfield were likely neither to become lovers, nor to intrude in their relationship. In a later letter to Rice (26 December 1920), Katherine makes clear her admiration of the artist: "Whenever I examine things here – the lovely springing line of flowers and peach leaves par exemple, I realise what a marvellous painter you are – the beauty of your line – the life behind it."Eleven years older than Mansfield, Anne Estelle Rice was born in 1877 at Conshohocken, a mill town near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, then grew up at Pottstown, some 50 kilometres away. She was said by her husband to be of Scottish, Irish and Pennsylvania-Dutch descent. From 1894 she studied art for three years at the School of Industrial Art in Philadelphia before going on to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, where she studied with William Merritt Chase and others.Even in her student years, she was contributing fashion illustrations for Collier's, Harper's and the Saturday Evening Post, before moving to Paris in 1905, where she worked for Philadelphia's North American magazine. At Paris-Plage (now Le Touquet) on the Normandy coast two years later, she met and formed the close relationship with John Duncan Fergusson, who introduced her to the Fauvists. The aesthetic concept of "rhythm" provided the connective tissue between the writers and artists involved with the magazineJD Fergusson has come to be associated with three other Scottish painters with similar a...

Sep 21, 2016Walk to End Alzheimer's conducted under pristine conditions Sunday
However, scientists are looking closer at eye tests and sense of smell, which may act as indicators of Alzheimer’s.
Rhonda Guthier and Kelsey Underwood both walked at the event for the first time last year, and they returned again Sunday. It was a family gathering, as roughly a dozen relatives participated.
“We’re here to support a family member who recently passed from Alzheimer’s,” Guthier said. “We want to make it an annual thing to support her memory, and it’s a great way to get our family together.”
“We had a good time walking,” Underwood said. “It was fun to get together.”
Amanda Ennis and her sister-in-law Adrienne Zak were in their fourth year walking, with Zak saying “it’s good to bring awareness [to Alzheimer’s],” and she’s happy to “support the cause.”
Alzheimer’s “is a disease that is not really well-recognized unless it’s hit close to home for you,” Ennis said. Many people “don’t recognize the effect it has not just on the individual, but on families, as well.”
Rebecca Justin, who has a mother with Alzheimer’s, was manning a booth for advocacy. Individuals could sign up Sunday to advocate for more support in battling Alzheimer’s, from attending floor votes in the statehouse to going to town hall meetings.
“I’m not a scientist, so I’m not going to come up with the cure for Alzheimer’s, but this is my way of doing something positive,” she said. “It feels very purposeful.”
Those attending Sunday’s walk could grab a flower and place it in the “promise garden,” Justin said. They could write messages on those flowers and even carry the flowers with them during their walk—yellow flowers meant “I support or care for someone with Alzheimer’s,” blue flowers were for those with Alzheimer’s, purple flowers were for those who lost someone to Alzheimer’s, and orange equated to “I support the cause and a vision of a world without Alzheimer’s.”
“I know what it’s like to walk through this struggle, and I feel super supported here,” Justin said. This walk lets people know “they are not isolated.”
All funds raised during the walk further the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association, which provides free guidance on everything from education and support groups to care consultation and early-stage programs. The free, 24/7 helpline can be reached at 800-272-3900 or found online at alz.org/mnnd.
Each year, the Walk to End Alzheimer’s recognizes an Honorary Family, which this year was the Harold Young family. Young moved to Owatonna in 1964, was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s in 2006, and died at Valley View of Owatonna in 2013.
“My dad disappeared for 25 hours on us,” said Catherine Smith, Young’s daughter. “You never know when your brain is going to click into another world.”
“People don’t realize how terrible this disease really is,” added Smith, who was alongside her daughter, Megan, and grand-daughter, Makayla, on Sunday. “Baby Boomers are coming into this, and there’s no cure. It’s scary, and we need a cure fast.”
