MISS TURNER A GUEST.

Miss Lucille Turner who is in Mum
cic, Indiana visiting Miss Alice Bing-
ham. was the guest at dancing par
~ given by members of a club. An
abbreviated account OF the affair as
published in the Muncie Press is as
follows:
The members of the r. r. G.. club
were hosts last evening at a large and
elegantly appointed dancing party in
the Alhambra hall. The dance was
one Of the most beautiful of the sea
son. and was well attended by the
older people as well as the younger
set. A continuous musical program
featured this the eleventh anniversary
dance. The players, and orchestra
from Marion, were stationed on the
balcony. and at each intermission.
Gray's orchestra. rendered selections.
Old gold and blue. the club colors.
were used in decorating, rows of crepe
paper being encircled about the hall
from the center. The lights were
shaded with the same colors. and the
programs were lovely blue circles or
namented with the club monogram
embossed in gold. At . o'clock the
grand march began. being led by Miss
Doris Mauch of Hillsdale. Mich. and
Rodney Marsh, followed by Miss Lu-
ella Morrison and Bennett Heath. A
two-course luncheon was served and
n most enjoyable evening was spent.

EADS AND FASHIONS
Palladium SpeCian

New York. April S-The French
makers have done wonderful things
with scarfs and sashes and girdies,
and wonderful things too with skirt
drapery many of the loveliest models
in very soft matrials having intricate
and graceful skirt drapery instead of
the straight empire lines or the
straight simple tunic or fettered lines
which have been so generally exploit
ed during the winter. There are still
plenty of the latter, though the fetter
or hobble idea in its entirety has pass
ed, but the most beautiful of the skitr
models are the draped ones. Natur
ally, the worst failures too are in this
field; for there is no other thing in
dressmaking which so positively de-
mands artistic inspiration as does dra
perry, and no bungling hand can
triumph in this regard
The plain Clingine skirt, opened at
sides or front to SHOW d petticoat or
pantalons is still much used, but many
fashion authorities doubt that the pan,
taloon idea will ever become generally
popular with the women Of this coun-
try. The effect of this style of skirts
is more bold than artistic, more CON
spicuous than beautiful or becoming.
Speaking of the latest innovations
in fashions a prominent designer of
womens apparel in Paris said the 9th
er day. that Paris women are trying to
weary of the Grecian empire mode
and that they would change it at the
first favorable opportunity. There is
undoubtedly truth in what he said.
because every woman in Paris loves
novelty and delights above all in
changing the style of her gowns. At
At the same time she understands bet
ter than most women the kind of gar
ment which is most becoming too her.
For that reason it is quite possible
that the Parisiennes will not be too
eager to make a change from the pres
ent style, which is so extremely be-
coming to large majority of them.
Adjustable flounces to petticoats
are not entirely new, but until recent
ly it has not been easy to buy ready
made these convenient tranSfOrma'
tons. Now, however, one can indulge
in close fitting jersey top. which
will outwear half d dozen flOunces,
and with it several ruffles to button

The same program which Mr.. Shenk
recently sang in Dayton will be given
at this time. The following account
of his concert as clipped from the
Dayton Herald, is of interest:
Not in years has Dayton enjoyed a
song concert like that given by Mr.
Shenk at the Y NJ c. A. auditorium
| last night; the audience was taken by
surprise from the first and scarcely
recovered it's breath until the last
piece was sung.
1t is a question of adjectives in at
tempting 10 describe Mr. Shenk' S
performance; excepting certain stage
mannerisms, which time will correct,
/ his work is supremely commendable:
his voice. a very sympathetic, rich
flexible baritone that at once appeals
TO the listener by its pure. unaffected,
wholesome character, was used with
great skill and unaffected art. so that
il seemed as fresh at the conclusion
OF the long program as at the be-
ginning
The singer was very happy in the
makeup of his program, furnishing
a great variety OF really musical songs
without the brayura element that
many like to introduce, which is not
ia say that every song was simple or
easy-in fact, 1t was a matter of as
constituent to hear the extremes OF
, Mr.. Shenk's renditions, from the
dainty. beautiful Day Is Gone
. (which the audience compelled him 10
repeaU. TO the magnificent ballads
by Loewe. "Archibald Douglas" and
THE Erlking," which latter was never
sung better by any one in the
writer's judgment. and he has heard
| it rendered more than once by the
foremost singers.
The greatest treat of the evening
and a surprise indeed, too, was the
rendition of fellow-townsman's com
position, "Annab bel Lee" by Mr. Archie
A. Mumma; after loud and long ap-
plause, the composer had to arise and
make his bow to the delighted audi.
ence. and as an encore, Mr.. Shenk
sang another of the young composer s
songs, a poem by James Whitecomb
Riley, which was equally appreciated
1t was interesting to note that the
TRANSACTIONS of the German songs
were mostly by Mr.. Shenk himself
done, another sign of the artist s
broad gifts; Judging by the apprecia
ton of the Dayton audience Mr.. Shenk
has voice and an art in it's use. that
will bring him the greatest success as
a public singer, for every one yhC
heard him last night feels that a new
star has arisen above the horizon OF
the American concert stage.
1t would seem ungracious not tC
speak of the artistic piano accom-
paniment of Mrs. Ethel NJ. Funk
houser, who conscientiously and skill
fully did the difficult thing of playing
the second part without letting it be
come the first. The program was as
follows:
