This is the story of a young
man who came to 'dinner-and
stayed-until a dream came true!
Of course, he was invited to din­
ner, invited to stay and invited to
share the dream.
The story began twenty-odd
Y~ars ago when a little tow­
headed boy named Ernest Clif­
ford Weaver tried out his first
s~t of color ·crayons on the bed­
room walls. Not all the sketches
of birds,. dogs and other weird
animals along with trains and air­
Planes pleased his mother, but the
ereative urge was there and his
Iitle-boy pride was real.
1\ Dream Is Born
Chapte1· two deals briefly with Saturday afternoon lessons in
whic;h he sketched,his native Ari­
zona landscape and began ·to
drea!Jl of some day having his
own school of creative art. As he
grew up, the dream grew, too,
until he wanted it more than any­
thing else in the world. But hori­
zons began to shift around the
world.
In 1941 he moved with his par­
ents to Oregon to complete high
school work at Milwaukie union
high school in time to join the
army and serve three years over­
seas. Army service gave rum time
and opportunity to see Africa and
