Also on the grounds at Rabun Gap-Nacoochee are a dozen tenant farmers and their families, who send their children to the school, attend adult classes in better farming methods. A dairyman, for example, gets a $30,000 farm unit with a house, a barn and cows, and can stay ten years in return for splitting his profits with the school. By universal sharing, the school is thus combating what President Anderson calls "too much giveaway today." Says he: "We have no miracle pills here-just opportunity...
...ENGLAND IMAGE, text and photographs by Samuel Chamberlain (192 pp.; Hastings House; $ 12.95). This is for spiritual New Englanders, the exiled yearners who can look at a plain wooden barn in a rocky Vermont field and see the Parthenon.

If he is an impressionist of any sort, he should have some idea of what he is painting before it is painted and out drying behind the barn. Knocking art academies is folly. Mr. Rutman has never been to one. How he can fail to see the inherent value of formal art training and criticism is inconceivable. Mr. Rutman's actual complaint is that the museums refuse to replace their restored masterpieces with his red blotches...
