Los Angeles - Anaheim 2409 Lenoir Richards Martin Authors New Children's Book Now on Sale Anaheim is harboring a teacher, artist and choreographer in the person of Lenoir Richards Martin. Her modesty compels admiration, but her new book for children, just off the press, compels superlatives. In 1928 Mrs. Martin was stricken with arthritis, thereby cutting her off from her beloved dancing, which is her chosen profession. During this time she taught herself to draw, a task which she found arduous, she now admits. It was while this seige of illness was progressing that Mrs. Martin conceived her choreography and illustrated it—the story of two children and their path through life. They were led everywhere by the golden goose who had left his mother to explore the world. The story is allegorical and, if ever produced, will be an extravaganza. It was from this ballet that Mrs. Martin decided to write the book, "The Wise Old Goose." The book was written to assist parents to help their children in making their own decisions, to think, reason and choose the difference between good and bad, true and false, with the pointers on the best for everyday good living. The book is dedicated to Mrs. Martin's mother, Anna L. Richards, who collaborated with Mrs. Martin in writing the couplets and verses that appear with the illustrations. These illustrations will entice the younger child, while the simple reasoning of each verse will appeal to the better instincts of the older child. At the end of the book is the Dance of Romance—a dancing lesson with illustrations that can be clarified by turning to the illustration that it depicts and taking that pose. At the present time Mrs. Martin is illustrating for dance magazines and her first work will be out in the March issue of "Stars of Tomorrow," featuring the fanciful nut dressing fulfilled its promise. Trimmings included tomato juice cocktail, jello vegetable and fruit salads, candied sweet and Irish potatoes, relishes of olives, celery and pickles, nut and corn bread, corn muffins and desserts of banana cake and apple pie topped with whipped cream. Filled with a glow, produced only by excellent food and congenial company, 1950 Hallowe'en festival captains and committee men plus representatives of the press, discussed tentative plans for this year's "bigger and better twenty-seventh annual celebration." Those present for the dinner-conclave at the residence, formerly the old Eastman home, included Harry Bradley, J. B. Collings, J. W. Stephen, Warren Ashleigh, of the decorative arrangement. Following the banquet stallation ceremonies, they and their wives enjoyed a ning of dancing.
