No Art in Tight Skirts

From the New York American.
 London-The artists of London and Paris are deploring what the American artists have been deploring for years the ungraceful modern dress of women. In Paris they call it the Host feminine lne," and M. Paul Irebe is now design ing dresses in the hope that. through the medium of the stage, this lost line may be recovered. His ambition is to give women again an alluring approach to the contour of the Venus de Milo.
 Solomon J. Solomon, R. A., the great English painter of portraits and figure subjects. has expressed some very inter- esting views on the question. Having just spent an evening watching a musical com edy performance in which, he said. he had seen the whole thing in silhouette, " he felt very strongly that without the proper fullness of skirts women want q train in order to complete the line and give the figure base and support.
 Tt is very ugly" he remarked, to see the line falling in toward the feet. The tight skirt is distinctly ungraceful. We have made very wrong departure in adopting it. One cannot imagine woman looking stately with tight skirt clinging to the ankles It interferes with the grace of her carriage and movement, and somehow gives her no foundation, no base.
 There is always this, of course, to be said about any fashion, that while it lasts it has a certain cachet, which blinds one to it's uginess But 1t is quite obvious that in three or four years time we shall look back upon 1t as a very ugly prison for the figure.
 "A woman's dress must have certain fullness. When q woman dresses like man she looks shorter than she is. and in tight-fittng skirt she is dressed more like man than a woman.
 'T cannot imagine. indeed, anything more ugly than the present fashion, more particularly in profile. Tying in the lower | limbs is such a mistake; 1t gives them no play at all.
 For walking and for outdoor games a woman, 1t is true. does not want a train. l It would interfere with her freedom of movement But there is a medium be- tween a tight fitting skirt and a certain flow of the line which is obviously neces- sary.
 Besides from the earliest days wom- en have always had some such form of drapery From the Greeks onward they have felt the need for it. By unfolding the lower limbs too closely you are there fore departing from the tradition.
 t'One may take the drawings of Du Maurier as an example of how women ought to look when well dressed. There were changes of fashion even then.'

MISS BLANCA RANDALL
 RETURNS FROM EUROPE

Miss Blanca Randall, the sister of Mrs John Madison Caldwell, returned last night from Europe after four profitable years of voice study. She will he heard several times in recital during the next few weeks. Among the recent press com- ment of Miss Randall's singing are the following:
 'Bianca Randall, a favorite pupil of oean de Reszke, sang programme or operatic airs, French and English songs, for a fashionable audience in Theatr ' Femina Thursday evening. Especially beautiful were her renditions or An Forse Lui from "rraviata and the Madame Butterfly aria.
 Mis-, Randall has a voice of unusual beauty and freshness and sings with q charm and ease of manner that is delight- full. Her diction is excellent and the use

The Music of the Typewriter

From the New York Sun.
 With her eyes on the notes she plays on the keyboard with free, sure touch and not without expression. The real expert comes by practice and instinct to vary the stroke, to shade it's power so that the writing on the paper, of all the characters, is even in color.
 And that is the sort of typewriting the musical one Is doing now; there is ex- pression in her work if your ear is trained enough to note it. and there is speed great speed. You don't hear click click and then another click and so on but now you hear smooth, steady, slight ly resonant ripping sound, marked at measured intervals by the sound of the bell and accented here and there by the ripping current flowing on all the time steadily.
 Isn't that a sound pleasant to hear. This is typewriter music. It makes me think of the smooth, steady ruffling with occasionally heavier tapping on a drum.

OFFICERS CHOSEN

At the annual business meeting of the Music Study club the following officers were elected 10 office: Mrs. Victor Han son. president; Mrs. Houston Davis. vice president; Mrs L. J. Davids, treasurer; Mrs Sidney M. Ullman, secretary; Mrs George Harrington, corresponding secre- tary.
 It will be the endeavor of each officer to make the club a continued success, furthering the study of music in all branches. Realizing the growth of this organization. 1t was necessary to change the membership to an active and inactive one giving inactive members privileges with no effort on their part to entertain, making meetings attractive socially as well as for study. It is the desire of this cl,b to enlarge it's inactive membership so that the club may be able to have several artists rectals and bring only ar- lists of high rank. Another attractive feature club, which can be greatly assist ed by an enlarged inactive membership will be the addition of scholarship fund to place one or more musical girls or boys
 in a position to further their talents and thus be assisted through the Music Study club to attain perfection in their chosen art.
 This is indeed high idea land should appeal to all and surely assist in making
 inactive members.
 A plan of study for the coming year has not been decided upon, the making of the programmes will be left for con alteration to a programme committee to be appointed by the president later.
 The executive goard will stand as here tofore with slight changes
