EDISH-AMERICANS TO
HONOR BELLMAN'S NAME
Festival of His Songs and Music VIII
Be Given at Shell Mound

The Swedish Singing Society will
give a Bellman musical festival at
Shell Mound Park, Berkeley, on Sunday
next.
Bellman was a celebrated Swedish
poet and composer 1t was he who
wrote the greatest number of Sweden's
folk songs, many of which have been
adopted by the universities in the
fatherland
The singing society, after much re-
hearsing, will render all his songs and
the orchestra will discourse BeIlman
music during the dances, especially ar
ranged for the occasion by Director
Axel Philstrom.
The latter is an innovation and
should prove to be particularly pleas
ing to the Swedish people.
Emil Hogberg is president of the
singing society and d. Molander has
been elected chairman of the arrange
ment committee.

Quired sufficient mastery of Gallo idioms to be
able to converse freely with the diplomats ac-
credited TO the court Of st. Jamess. Moreover the
years which he spent in Downing Street as Under
Secretary have endowed him with practical ex-
perience of the workings Of the Foreign Office
and of the administration of the international
relations of Great Britain which few statesmen
can boast OF possessing when intrusted with the
seals of Secretary Of State for Foreign Affairs
by the sovereign Like Sir Henry Campbell
Bannerman he is extremely level headed and
even tempered, and permits nothing to disturb
his equanimity.
To the King his presence at the Foreign Office
must be particularly agreeable. for he is the
son Of that Colonial George Grey who was
cQuerry of the sovereign throughout the first ten
years or so of his married life. In fact. there
are few families OF tie English aristocracy who
have throughout the Victorian era been more
closely associated with the reigning family than
the Greys. one OF whom General Charles Grey.
It may be remembered accompanied King Ed
ward throughout his tour in America forty years
ngo as his chief mentor. and was afterward
private secretary to the late Queen, while Mrs.
william Grey who died as Duchess d'Otrante,
was for quarter Of a century the favorite lady
in-waiting of Queen Alexandra Sir Edward is
the chief of a junior branch of the family of
which Lord Grey. the present Governor General
Of Canada, is the head. being descended from
younger son Of the first Earl Grey. His grand
father, Sir George Grey. repeatedly held Office
as Secretary for the Colonies and for the Home
Department, so that the new Minister OF Foreign
Affairs may be said to have come by his state
craft through inheritance. He is exceedingly
rich, fortunes in England go. and has a beau
uful place in Northumberland, known as Fallo-
don. to which he is devoted. In fact. he is so
fond Of country life and of open air sports and
pursuits that he grudges every hour spent at
Westminster. Having already refused peerage,
and being Indifferent to the emoluments Of
Office he has remained IN political life solely
from a sense of public duty and OF the obliga-
tions due to historic name. Sir Edward is
tbs champion tennis player In Parliament, won
the gold tennis medal given by the NJ. G. c. at
Lords some six or seven years ago. and Is one
of the most expert disciples OF Izaak Walton In
the United Kingdom. In fact, when he was last
In office as Under Secretary OF State he was
actually arrested for poaching in a Devonshire
trout stream, so great Is his enthusiasm as a

ORE OF HER THEORIES,

All through the Far West and the midwest
the women's clubs have taken up the question
of improving and decorating the public schools.
Here in the metropolis and its suburbs, the all
absorbing question has been how to secure
enough buildings for the ever growing, over
flowing population. The public schools have
been left to the management Of the politicians
elected to positions boards of education.
The very rich and the very poor are too busy
to bother with school matters, and the great
middle class which does such wonderful things
for smaller communities Is too fully occupied In
New-York in keeping out of the latter class or
trying to get into the former to care whether
