Bill Jones is a knowledgeable man in a field of art known as brass rubbings, and had his work featured recently in an exhibition at the annual art show of New York's St. James Episcopal Church. Brass rubbings result from placing a piece of fine paper over brass sculptures and rubbing same with red or black wax. These sculptures abound in English churches, where, in the 13th century, noblemen had plaques of themselves sculptured and placed over their tombs in the floors of the churches. Bill had a trip to England last summer and made a host of these rubbings in the course of extensive wandering around the countryside. Bill's occupation remains peddling the fine Jones family sausage.
