Richmond woman:
Miss Mamie c. Love entertained a
few musical friends yesterday after
noon in her studio, to have them hear
some of the new songs Of Mrs. Lulu
Jones Downing of Chicago. Mrs.
Downing's compositions are gaining a
wide hearing and are being sung by
such artists as Sybil Sammis, Francis
McBurney, Alfred II. Bergen and
others. Yesterday about a dozen songs
were sung by Miss Ida Belle Sweenie,
Franklin n. Taylor, Howard Marsh,
Miss Collins and pupils of Miss Love,
Miss Tuhey, Miss Mccarthy and Miss
McCaughan of Muncie, who came for
the purpose. In the songs Mrs.
Downing has selected the words from
various poets and sought to make her
music represent them both in the
song and accompaniment.
Among the most notable successes
of the program were "Apparitions,
words by Browning, and ''Violets,
sung by Miss Tuhey; Evening Star
and "Only a Rose" sung by Mr.. Tay-
lor. Among the other songs were "A
Day and It's Dreams, "Life's Twi-
light" Somewhere "Lifes Way

all of the accomplishments, showing
herself to be pianist of ability and
she also played an instrumental num-
Der of her own, a prelude in c sharp
minor.
Mrs. Downing formerly wed in
Richmond and Terre Haute.
She gave a pleasing recital in this
city last week under the auspices of
the Music Study club.

SOCIETY is QUIET.
Society is resting for time it
seems and the cause may be attrib-
uted to the snowstorms. Many social
events previously arranged for have
been deferred on account of the wea.
ther. Although few affairs are Civ
en- each day and evening. yet society
is very quiet at the present time. The
Lenten season and the very bad
weather are combination which
makes the work Of a society editress
rather difficult, for of course people
who are indoors want the news re-
CARELESS.
DANCE LAST EVENING.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Kolp gave
their first dance of a series of three
last evening at the Odd Fellows hall
for the members of Mrs. kolp's Fri
day evening class and also for nine

sons were in attendance.
