SOCIAL AND CLUB MATTERS
Choral Club Concert.


tentive listeners greeted the Ladie
Choral Club last evening at the A. {
NJ. College Auditorium, in the concer
given under the auspices of the A. &
NJ. Glee Club. That the concert wa
a complete success, goes without say
ing. Those who heard the club il
their Bryan concert few weeks ago
know what high standard OF excel
lence their work has attained, anC
in the concert last evening this stan
dard was fully maintained, and if any
thing, surpassed Mr.. Graham has
given his best efforts in the directing
of the club, and as a result their work
shows breadth, style and finish not
often found in singing societies.
The soloist of the evening were Mrs.
w c. Davis, Miss Lila Vanardo, Mr..
Haraldt r. Techau, and Mr.. J. Bert
Graham. Mrs Davis always graces
any program upon which she appears,
and she lost none of her popularity
i'm the selection she gave last evening.
Mr.. Techau played in his usual inimit-
able style, and proved to be one of the
best features of the program Mr..
Graham's solos were well chosen and
he had the close attention of the aud
fence during their rendition. Miss
Lila Vanardo, the club pianist proved
beyond doubt that she is a soloist
as well as accompanies She has
light, facile touch. and her selections
were well rendered.
In response to a request from the
A. e. NJ. Glee Club. Miss Hettie Smith
sang a beautiful little number, Il Love
You Truly" by Carrie Jacobs-Bond
The request came as a complete sur
prise to her, as she had not been ex-
pecting to sing SOLO The Glee Club
is very grateful to her for acceding to
their request.
Bryan is to be congratulated on the
of musical artists it contains.
and on the excellent choral club which
is doing such efficient work under Mr..

ESSENTIALS FOR A JOURNEY.
With These Articles of Wearing APP
pareI My Lady viii Be Always
Perfectly PresentabIe.

If you contemplate going away on a
visit this summer, have a lightweight
jacket suit in good color to wear
with burnt straw hat with substan-
tial trimmings. The material could
be shadow effect of tan and brown
to wear with tan shoes and tan silk
gloves, and it would be frightened
with the burnt straw hat with any
chosen trimming in a different color.
Next have a white linen suit, for a
suit of this kind is always presentable
and Is worn by the best dressers and
always presents a chic appearance
when clean. An evening suit Of white
batiste, trimmed with white lace,
would be appropriate and IL should be
just bit dressy for better wear. A
one-piece suit of pongee TO wear with
guimpes would be almost necessity,
Tor dress OF this kind may properly
be worn any hour of the day and not
be inappropriate. A walking skirt Of
linen or serga should be included to

Determining Zach Mans Faith

Every life will have it's religion &C.
cording to it's development. It is folly
to look for uniformity in faith until
you have uniformity in the faithful,
until all minds are alike the things
those minds can see must vary. The
religion of the man who thinks in the
terms of the laws of universe must
be different from that of the one who
cannot think beyond his dinner pail or
his back yard.
II religion is the life of ideals, the
power within US that pushes out and
on toward the realization in ourselves
and our conditions of the best we
know and hope for, then each mans
faith will be determined by his vision
and his knowledge; every individual
creed will be conditioned by the indi.
vidual's stage OF culture.
1t is folly for the trained mind to
seek satisfaction In the ideals whose
bounds are set by the unframed mind,
Just az 1t equally is foolish Tor him to
mock at the vision that cheers the
lowlier life. Nearly all the supposed
difficulties between science and reli.
9ion arise from the attempt to force
to common viewpoint In religious
minds that dwell almost whole uni.
verse apart In all the rest OF theis
thinking.

THE STORY.
SsEKY THIN five days!"

w Judith repeated the words over
and over again to herself, and with
each repetition the terror of the stu

Holofernes, the powerful general of
the great king ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, had
many months before surrounded the
city of Bethulia, and had cut off food
supplies and water, until now the city
Is In sore straits, and at last the gov

word that if relief did not come with

be opened and they would go forth
to become a spoil and prey to Holo-

sandaled foot coming with a sudden
emphasis to the ground. NAY, it

Then calling her maid she directed
that Ozias, Chabris and Chants, the
men In authority in the city, be sum-
moned to her presence. And with no
little wonder on their part they
obeyed, for the beauty and virtue of
Judith were known to all in the city,
and her, influence was great, not only

years before her husband had been
suddenly stricken while overseeing his
workmen during barley harvest, and
from that time she had not ceased
to mourn for him, and delighted to
use the gold and silver and the rich
estates which he had left her for
the blessing of those about her, for
she was q devout woman and sought
with all her heart to serve the Lord
her God. So when this report had
reached her ears that the governor OF
the city had agreed to surrender the
city to the enemy she lifted her heart
to God in prayer, knowing that he
could deliver. And When Ozias, Cha
bris and Charms appeared before her
she said:
who are we that have tempted God

SERMONETTE.

True piety finds expression In
heroic deeds.
The heart which beats true
with God fears not in the pres
ence of the power of wicked
3 ness.
A beautiful physique and a
beautiful heart form combina-
ton which can work nightly
for God among men.
Too often 1t Is true that beauty
proves a pitfalI and snare to
! it's possessor.
IL is saying that "she is
! too pretty to be good" and "she
is too good to be pretty"
! But the commonest face and
form becomes beautiful in the
reflected light of the beautiful
J deeds Of heart and life.
However, vanity, frivolity and
Z wickedness are not necessary
coroIIaries, Of beauty of face and
) form.
! Adown history's pages have
; come the records of beautiful
women who have lived beauti-
fully and wrought magnificent
5 iy, heFoieaIly.
3 Among such is this fair jew
ish widow, Judith.
The grace and beauty Of the
! visible were but the beautiful
: setting for the purity of heart
and lofty ideals of the life
I within.
{ She knew God and delighted
to serve him, and the beauty
and grace with which God had
} endowed her, Instead OF turn
ing her heart from him, became
the blessed instrument of deliv-
( eranee to her beloved city.
3 Whether the story is his
tory or only fiction, this fact re-
( mains that womanhood is here
: exalted, and Judith becomes the
expression of all that is purest,
5 most sublime and heroic.
1t Is such characters as this
that the world needs In every
age. Judith shines like rare
gem from out dark back
ground. Blessed Is her mem
DRY. And blessed Is the MEM
Dry Of every true woman who In
4 the hour of great need, whether
in the national life or the life of
the home, rises heroleaIIy and
dedicates her all for the help
and salvation of others.
Beauty that Is only skin deep
Is perlous. Beauty which
reaches to the inner heart and
3 life is the beauty which proves
a benediction upon the world.
Truly, the value of 4 "good
woman is far above rubies."
