SING FLOWER QUEEN
YOUNG GIRLS GIVE 0PER-
ETA AT SOCIAL CENTRE.
Trained by Fred s. Hall, Head Worker
OF Neighborhood House, Who Also
Took Part-Large Attendance.

The Flower Queen was crowned
last night at the Neighborhood House,
in the course of a pretty midsummer,
operetta bearing that NAME, and given
by thirty young girls who live near
that centre of social activities on
Market street. The music of the ope-
retta Is by George F. Root. and the
words by Frances Jane Crosby. The
plot is simple.
A man disappointed with the world
goes 70 the woods to live as a hermit,
gathered to choose their queen. He
consents to act as Judge, and each of
the flowers in turn sings her claim to
be chosen queen. Before they finish,
night comes on and the flowers fall
asleep, the rose remaining awake longer
than h others and singing to the
Nightingale in h trees above her.
In the morning the rose is chosen
queen and Is drowned by the other

eepticn- of,ths beauty of the performance.
s~olo-sung by each ~aspirant in support
of her claim to the queen Is In keeping
with the traditional character of the
flower, ana during the rehearsals the
poetry of these conceptions has been exert

the,ot1ers, sincss'she will die ere they are
born Heliothrope and mignionette-two
or t1sS smallest girls-modestly make no
claim In their simple duet, but are con-
tent to tell of beauties they think the
Queen should have. The japonica, by con-
trnst, dareB anyone to rival her or to dis
pute her claim. The sunflower scene, in
froduced by the amazing demand of that
giant flower to DE crowned at once, was
one Of the best. In the entire performance.
The children showed real dramati power
az they fell moclingly at the s~unhower's
feet. their shouts of HAL, o queen being
interrupted by their peals of laughter
and all in time TO the music. The lily and
violet follow IN a gentle rhythemical duet,
In which they modestly own that they do
not care to be made the queen, choosing,
rather, TO live In their "own secluded dell"
The most p~retentious solo in the work
was that OF the rose. which followed next,

ers in a nodding chorus try to resist the
Poppiea' powers. but finally fall asleep
as the lights go down. and the nightin-
sale-a flute in the w~ings-begins its sweet
song. The rose alone is awake and con-
hdes to her the hope which she almost
dares not own

an amusing mixture of assumed modesty
and conceit. The hermit then renders his
decision. the choice Of the rose being
hailed with delight by the other flowers,

words and music OF the entire work, a feat
which would probably have been impos-

An Index to CHARACTER.

An Index to CHARACTER.
It is really our common speech which
acts as an index to our character when
meeting strangers. The girl who cam
not converse without emphasizing her
remarks with slang is, in the minds of
well-bred people, decidedly shallow.
The girl who Is a pleasant talker, n
who Is able to v in an easy
manner without any attempt to at
tract with seeming witticism, is really
the magnetic girl. A witty girl is al
ways amusing, but there is a great
difference between the witty girl and
the slangy girl.
A girl I know, on whom the slang
habit had a great hold, determined to
reform. She had just attained her ma
jority and was trying to impress upon
her friends her new dignity. I'm not
going to act like q child any longer
she said with a toss of her head. "T'rn
q now, and to begin with I'm
never going to use slang again. I'm
going to cut that out
1t must be added to her credit that
she did "cut 1t out" even though she
declared a reform with the use Of
slang.
A girl might indulge in all sorts OF
slang phrases before her best friends,
but what would be her amazement and
chagrin IL she invited her friends to
her home and her mother were to use
slang, too, in talking to the guests?
No doubt she would be rightfully
ashamed of her mother, so why should
not The mother be equally ashamed OF
the daughter and correct her when
necessary.
