COBB HOUSE GALLERY Combining their artistic talents , Dorothy and Matthew Cobb did exactly what was predicted—they came up with something unique , exciting and quite lovely—their new gallery at Cobb House in Barnstable Village. Essentially a rotunda type con- struction , the high domed ceiling of the main gallery provides ex- cellent lighting for the works of art in various media featured there. A fieldstone fountain high- lights one side of the room , and the outer gallery is contrived to make the most of the afternoon light and prevailing breeze with its louvered windows. A gay, yellow cart brimming with colorful plants greets the visitor in the little fenced in court- yard from where there are en- trances to both the shop and gal- lery. Everything is light and color and done in the imaginative style of the Cobb House proprietors. At Saturday 's preview opening, we heard over and over again that "Dorothy and Matthew should be proud indeed and that Barnstable Village should deem itself most fortunate to have so attractive an addition to its business center.

For several years, the Ziperns have been making a name for themselves, catering weddings and other gala events as well as sup- plying some excellent baked goods and Swedish specialties. Now, at the end of the little lane on the north side of 6A in Cum- maquid they will be host and host- ess, along with daughter Sandy, to those who want luncheon or early tea in a restful atmosphere. Breezy Knoll is well named , for it is located atop a hill and the dining areas are light and air , no matter how hot the day. Capacity for the tea room, which is seasonal, is 40, and parking has been planned to avoid congestion . . . a fact proven at Sunday's affair. Those who know the Ziperns don't have to be told the food Is better than good ; they already know it, For those who are not acquainted with them, we might suggest driving up to Breezy Knoll between noon and 4 on any day day but Tuesday and finding out for themselves.
