MUSIC AS A. SUNSHINE BEARER

r ms BY MRS. cLEoNE DANIELS BERGRENs SUN
g. E.~ SHINE GLEE CLUB.

Mrs. Bergren is an enthusiastic young
woman and her enthusiasm finds express
sion In both music and elocution. 1t Is |
a little more than two years since she |
came to Minneapolis from Sioux City. |
Her home as girl was in Washington, D.
c., and she spent three years in Oberlin !
college, where she carried on her favor |
lite studies. Later she came west with |
her people and took a prominent part in |
the musical life of Sioux City. She was
chosen president Of the local musical club |
when its affairs were at a low ebb and
through her executive ability and skill |
as a manager and an artist, she paid off !
an Indebtedness Of over 800 and put the
snug sum of $3.50 in the treasury by
1.-The Bohemian Girl other operas and
cantatas were given with ever increasing
success and the club was soon as prosper
Gus as it's most ardent member could
| wish. -. .+e.
A dramatic soprano, Mrs BerSren's
| voice has a range Of nearly three octaves.
Her Evolutionary training has made her
enunciation we'll nigh perfect and the
words Of a song are never a mystery to
her audience. She was to have sung the
state song before the Minnesota Educa-
tional association at its recent convention,
but illness kept her a prisoner at home.
| No one regretted this more than Mr.. Ellis
worth, author Of the song, who had heard
| Mrs. Bergren sing his composition at the
annual banquet Of the Writer'S league
and who was enthusiastic over the feel
| ing and enthusiasm which she gave to It.
Mrs. Bergren has taken post graduate
work in elocution and also course with
| w. H. Neidlinger, the composer. She
| gave number Of concerts in Milwaukee
and Chicago and the suburban towns and
the success Of one was repeated at the
next. Last winter she sang in the choir
of Andrew Presbyterian church She is
especially fond of sacred music and puts
her whole heart into the Interpretation.
This winter Mrs Bergren Is very busy
woman. In addition to her private pupils
in both music and elocution, she teaches
in the Northwestern Bible and Missionary
Training school Wednesdays and Fridays.
The Sunshine Glee Club takes not a little
of her time, but she gives it royalty that
sad lives may be frightened. > . ~. .>ssl r.

the club, but those who wish to join must

The first Sunshine Glee club to be or
Eanized under the International society
was formed by Minneapolis woman who
Is planning to bring pleasure to many Il
"shut-in'' by means of her singers. Mrs.
Cleonc Daniels Bergren is an enthusiastic
member Of the Sunshine society. Mrs.
Bergren is also a well known singer and
slocutionist and so she received many calls
to sing for charity. requests for a little
program for the inmates of the Jail or the
hospitals and other institutions. Every
singer receives many such but Mrs. Ber--
gren did not refuse them as most singers
do. She accepted all she could and then
began to plan some way in which music
might be brought to those who were in
such dire need Of 1t. She had formed a
branch of the Sunshine society among
the young people of the First Baptist
church and the thought came to her late
in the fall that glee club might be or
ganized in the society to do just such
work.
The young people were enthusiastic In
their response to her suggestion and she
now has eighteen young women enrolled
In her glee club, while there are half
q dozen young men who stand ready to
lend aid when mans voice is needed to
carry out a program. Each singer is con-
secrated, as it were, to service and holds
herself in readiness to sing whenever the
call comes.
Mrs. Bergren receives applications for
music in all sorts Of ways. Rev. w. B.
Riley, pastor Of the First Baptist church,
always has list and the people at the
county jail are ever ready to listen. There
f. blind old lady whose afternoons have
been frightened by means of a few songs
from fresh, girish voices and the first
time q little cripple heard them she burst
into tears to think that anyone would
take the trouble to bring such melody
into her life.
The Sunshine Glee club meets every two
weeks for practice and old fashioned glees
and choruses are studied with the more
modern music, as many Of the ''shut-ins'
love the old songs. Later In the year the
club will give a concert and the men,
bers will appear in the Sunshine colors,
yellow and white. and the receipts will
be devoted to the passing on of good
cheer
Mrs. Bergen is president Of the club;
Miss Lillian Kane, vice president; Miss
Ida Clarke, secretary pro tenn; Mr..
Julian, treasurer The members of the
Sunshine Glee Club and Cecilian Sunshine
Society are Misses Gertrude Wales, Grace

SMART WOMAN's CLOSET
There 10 an Art In Putting Ones Cloth.
Ing Away That Keeps



Tho woman who knows how to put
away her belongings is not only neat, but
economical and generally smart In ap-
pearance. When she comes In fSom walk
she never hangs up her coat by the loop
inside the collar. II she puts it away in
the closet she uses a coat-hanger-N she
leaves It around the room, knowing she
may need it soon. she disroses it over the
back of chair that will keep it In shape.
The skirts Of her gowns never have a
stringy look because they are always
hooked and then hung by two loops. For
a tailor made skirt she uses a small coat
hanger with the ends bent down q lit
tie. This keeps the skirt in excellent
shape and causes it to hang in even folds.
The strings of her underskirts are tied,
and the garment is hung by the loops.
thus never showing q hump where It has
rested on the hook
For the same reason her shirtwaists
are always hung by the arnholes, unless
they have hanging loops. Handsome
waists have both sleeves and body stuffed
with tissue paper. and are then laid in
drawers or boxes
Shoes are easily kept in shape by slip

sometimes even mar the expression of
face. Gloves should always be removed
by turning them wrong side out; they
should then be turned back again, blown
into shape and each finger smoothed out
Ties especially four in hand or golf ties,
should be hung to avoid creasing. A gas
fixture may be used for this purpose if
nothing better offers itself. One clever
woman bought small nickel plated towel
rack, wound it with ribbon, and fastened
| it on the side Of chiffonier.
| Hats, Of course, should be kept out Of
the dust and placed so that the trim
ming will not be disarranged. This dis
position depends SO much on the hat and
/ the available space that each woman must
use her own ingenuity. However, 1t is
safe to say that no hat should be laid fiat
down on a shelf. Furs. also, should be
protected from dust, and a muf should
always be stood on end.
II women realized that most OF their
belongings are lying idle more than they
are being worn, they would, perhaps. be
more attentive to these little niceties.

 The religious exercises of St Pat. rick's Catholic church will be he'd on Sunday. the 18th. instead of on St. Patricks day. This arrangement has been decided upon on account of the number of parishioners who will be too busy to attend on the great Irish national day.
 Solemn high mass will be celebrated and the musical program greatly aug mented. An appropriate address will be delivered by the pastor, Rev. Father Gheldorf
