Concert by the Mt. Holyoke Glee and

To all lovers of music's sweet charms
New Haven this past week has been

Every seat in the commodious room
was filled when the program was open
I'd by a Enthusiastically charming
Mt. Holyoke song "In Quaint South
Hadley Town." which was heartily ap
plauded, as indeed were all the selec-
lions rendered by the glee club. Though
perhaps the favorite of the evening was
good old annie Laurie but as sung
DIV the Mt. Holyoke Glee club, arranged
by Dudley Buck, it not only took on a
aew meaning, but proved that the old
song can be rendered with sweetness
Ind tenderness that only comes from
long acquaintance with such an old
friend. Miss Roeth '9S well merited the
applause she received for her perfect
rendition of her part. 'The Swallow"
rill long be remembered by those who
we're fortunate enough to be present.
la Trojani Waltz" and the con-
luding instrumental number, Ideal
March, by the banjo club were es-
pecialIy well received. The audience
departed with the sweet strains Of Hol-
roke ringing in their ears.
During the interlude the fair young
aides greeted their many friends and
acquaintances in the audience, and
many, though sympathizing with good
BID Mt. Holyoke in her recent loss, yet
counted themselves fortunate in that it
presented to them the opportunity that
brought her fair representatives to the
Elm City.
These forty enthusiastic musicians
carry with them the hearty congratu-
ations of the university, as they go
spon their spring trip.

SONG OF THE THANKFUL TIME.

We think of Thanksgiving at seeding time
In the swelling, unfolding. budding Tune,
When the heart of nature and hearts or men
Rejoice In the earth grown young again.
We dream Of the harvest, of field ana vine,
And granarIes full, at Thanksgiving time'
We think of Thanksgiving In growing tiilie;
In the time of flowers. ana the Vihtuse
prime; -. ha,as
When the palms Of tho years strong hands
With fruitage, with grain, and with sweets
distilled. ,h,,,,o
When the dream Of hope Is truth sublime;
Then our hearts make room FOR the thahhtu
time.
We think OF Thanksgiving In harvest tline'
In the yielding, gathering, golden time,
When the sky Is frlnged with n hazy inlst,
And the bIushing naples by frost Ups KISSED
When tho barns are full with the harvest
cheer -.
And the browning, thankful day draws near
We think of Thanksgiving at resting time
The circle completed Is but chime
In The song of life, in the lives or men!
We harvest the toll Of our years, ana then
We wait at the gate of the King hignWay
For the dawn OF our souls THANKSGIVING

The Ivory God.

The ivory god has taken the place of
the Dresden statuette and the dainty
and fragile filigree toy. A few years
ago every mans ambition was to have
Il sufficient number of silver trinkets to
fill Il 'silver table," and this piece of
ostentation held place in the affec-
tons and the drawing-room of every
whimsical woman of fashionable pre-
tensions. Some of these toys were use
full, such as the wee boxes and trays
for desk or dressing table, the minia-
ture candlesticks and the dainty calen-
dars and photograph frames, but most
of them were wholly frivolous and as
impractical as they were diminutive.
One woman whose soul delights In
tiny things-from lap dog to well-nigh
Invisible timepieces-draped her piano
with scarf Of thin silk. 1t was arrang-
ed in soft folds, each fold held in place
by II little piece of Dutch silver. The
collection, which was strewn all over
the top of the piano. included violin.
q cradle, chairs, a clock and other arti-
cles of ''bgotry and virtue Each
was beautifully chased and carved

Some True Gospel.

In a way-out-west church, a plain
and unpretentious one, filled with plain
people, talked to by a plain, unassum-
ing preacher, the following language
was recently heard:
''The ten commandments must be TAX
en- out of cold storage. Noisy Chris.
tians must take out of pawn the Ser
mon on the Mount, where they have
put 1t up for an Egyptian flesh pot of
highly seasoned consomme. The snap
dragon of greed has turned his green
eyes upon every goodly thing, from the
savings of widows tale up to limo
cent, helpless human flesh. When
we are all bitten by this monster we
must not be surprised if now and then
some over-frenzied wretch yells for the
bomb and the torch"
As these and many more similar
words came earnestly and feelingly
from the preachers lips. Jesus hatred
of selfishness, Of greed, of injustice, of
tyranny was recalled, and the thought
that the mpn talking was truly dis
ciple of Christ crucified," and that
He was smiling sweet approval, and be
slowing divine applause, could not be
suppressed.

The Boys and Girls.

Says President Eliot of Harvard Col
lege; 1T is always with the children
that the best work is to be done for the
uplifting of any community" That
is self-evident truth, and yet it is not
so recognized that the State is acting
upon it. 1t allows the boys and girls to
be educated into hoodlumism, and then
spends its money and its energies In
arresting, convictlng and supporting
the men and women who are the newt
able result. 1t is the costliest possible
method to deal with them. A child can
be prevented at slight cost from going
to the bad; 1t takes hundreds and even
thousands of dollars to deal with n con
nrmed adult criminal. An ounce of
prevention here is worth many pounds

Believing and Trusting.

Faith accepts as true everything
which God has said. Trust puts all to
practical and personal use. The need
of trusting Is so great that the Bible Is
full of eXhortations concerning 1t.
"Trust In the Lord and do good"
"Trust We in the Lord forever 20
Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that
trusteth in thee;" "Thou wilt keep him
In perfect peace whose mind is stayed
on thee, because he trusteth in thee y
The comfort of every promise Is ours

what rational person would doubt what
God has said?-but the blessedness Of
the promises Is ours only when we trust
God to carry them out in our life and
being.

The Master,

The music of the spheres had played
Across the universe;
Earth dwellers listened to the charm
or sound and rhythmic grace:
Then smaller themes rang out from men,
Who sang of Hope and Heaven,
And voices cried, ITO US at last
True music has been given
The Master came. A throbbing hush
Fell on the weary world,
No tinkling, silvery notes were heard;
A massive strain was hurled.
Great chords and crashing harmonies
| Poured out with stress and throe,
Tremendous power and pain. Alas,
The gods were voicing woe.
The elemental passions ragged,
The earth-bound answer made,
And while the flesh cried, Master
cease"
And trembled, all afraid
Came sweetest note that e'er was sung,
Heart voiced the sounds of spring,
The perfect man held wide his arms,
The perfect woman came.
y, Master, you have brought the world
The gods from out the skies;
Have shown to men the depths of souls,
The heights 10 which they rise;
Laid bare the quvering heart of man,
OF good and i'll its strife,
Scribe, Prophet, Priest, you strike the
chord,
The Threnody of Life.
