for both. Hochman has temperament IN
abundance, as his superb playing OF the
difficult Sohumann Fantasie showed,

proved he is a composer of no mean abil-

To how many ambitions, talented girls
Berlin is the one desire OF their lives, the
great obsta Gle to It's accomplishment not
always lack OF means but want Of proper
care and oompanionship while away from

count OF "The American Girls Club" OF
Berlin from g purely personal standpoint,
feeling 1t may prove not only OF interest,
but of practical benefit to many. Eight
years ago, when In Paris, Mrs. Willard,
an American woman, became greatly IN
terested in the "Home for American
Students, " and determined on her return
to Germany to establish 1.-The American
Girls Club" Her experience with young
women coming alone and with little money
to Berlin for study, had convinced her of
the great need of place where Amer
lean girls could meet and feel they were
not wholly left to themselves in a strange
land, but that their country women,
mothers, women older than. they, were

glad and willing to advise and give prac-
tical reliable information; still more, they
could feel there was always one spot that
where they could get bit of home life,
see the familiar magazines and read their
ravorlte papers. The original idea was
wholly to form club, very small fee
being charged, as in no sense whatever is
1t charity save only in that charity
or love which thinks of others. Mrs.

cooperation froLa American residents,

The advantages of the Cape shore
since the advent OF the electric railway
and Sebago water are so apparent that
the tide is all turning that way, and in
stead of cottages for only summer use
permanent houses are being constructed,
and the only real difficulty has been to
secure desirable building lots.
This Mountain View Park property is
about all that is left that is in every way
desirable, and all the management asks
is an inspection of the property. This
clinches the argument absolutely.
The prices of lots are fixed low for
