beads with an enthusiasm which
makes the ardor shown in the bead
stringing days of twenty-five years ago
seem weak and commonplace in COM

her eye are rot longer in fashion, and,
moreover. would be considered too
easy by the young folk of this age.
Weaving beads into Indian designs
belts and moccasins and wampum
bags-is the thing now. The adher-
ence to native American art ideals in
preference to all foreign types of the
beautiful is the dominant note of the
new craze.
All the city kindergarten schools
now have classes in bead weaving.
Each class had quantity of models,
Which are procured in the downtown
stores. There are belts brought direct
from the Winnebago country. logging
strings from the Sioux reservations,
headdresses from the Zunis, and
square braided ropes from the Mo-
javes, in some of the schools Navajo
blankets have been hung up as models
and their scheme of decoration accur-
ately copied by the young folk.
The children are taught to weave
on little bead looms which look like
portable book racks, with row of
teeth on the top of each flange. Threads
are stretched from one row of teeth
to the other to constitute the warp of
the piece to be woven. Then the
beads are strung half dozen or a
score at a time on thread, and finally
sewed into the warp row at time.

Programme Selected So That All Tastes
Will be Satisfied.
The big Dorscht orchestra will give
the last of the orchestral concerts at
the Hyperion theater Sunday night.
The Dorscht season this winter has
been short and comprised but two Or
chestral and two military band con-
certs. Two of the concerts have been
played. In view of Sunday nights af-
fair being the last of the orchestral
contributions especial pains have been
taken to prepare good programme
and one that would please the various
tastes in the music line of the public.
For those caring for the best music
the second movement from Schubert S
unfinished symphony will be played.
Although this is classic in the extreme
it is so beautiful that everybody will
like it. Dvorak's suite of dances will
please those favoring the lively kind.
Flotow's overture to Martha is another
beautiful number and Strauss waltz,
'Tales from the Vienna Woods" with
introduction for zithers will find many
friends, for almost everybody likes a
Strauss waltz, particularly when played
by big and complete orchestra. For
the popular kind of music Stuarts 1.-THE
