"All these crafts," she said, with her flashing smile that kindles a spark in her dark eyes behind gold-rimmed glasses, "will be especially helpful in physiotherapy and the rehabilitation of the handicapped."

One of the most beautiful was of light green silk woven in Kashmir and decorated with a mango leaf motif in red and yellow threads. She i is above the average height for women of India and her bearing can' only be described as stately.

Miss Bowen's name is the latest to be added to the list of several hundred men and women, representing all ages and all walks of life, who have come from more than 30 foreign countries to visit the Penland School of Handicrafts either as students or observers.
