Solo Dancers.

There were four solo dances, two
by Miss Elinor McMillin, one by
Miss Susan Baxter and one by Miss
Elizabeth Coyle. Miss McMillin's
technique was perfect. She threw
her whole soul into the work, and
her Interpretation of the role OF
Terpsichore was without flaw. She
has given much study to her part
and those who had witnessed her
graceful dancing before claim that
she was even more graceful Monday
night than ever before. She seemed
a part of the flowers as she trippcd
over the smooth expanse of the
lawn in all her young loneliness to
the delight Of the spectators.
''The Fire Regained," Sidney
Hirsch's great drama has been
snapped by the moving picture men.
SO to those miles away, this sur
passingly beautiful and magnificent
production will be given by means
of the moving pictures. Shreveport
is sure to have the reels of the Fire
Regained."

as the Shepherd: Mr.. Charles Wash
burn as Hurophant; Mr. Burton
Barr as Hermes.
As "Athene" Mrs. McMillin has
scored another success. She was
magnificent in her robes of pure
white and one asks the question, af-
ter seeing her, if Athene herself
could have done any better. Her
voice carried to every part of the
large amphitheatre and her inter
probation Of the role was perfect,
or as nearly perfect, as any one
could make it.
As Athene she ruled her subjects
as a queen; she possessed that poise
which is ascribed to gods and god
desses even in mythology and she
brought into her Interpretation Of
the part her splendid talents and
her beauty. Her appearance as she
descended the steps leading from
the parthenon, was the signal for a
burst of applause and as she read
her lines the audience was taken
back to the days of the ancients and
were permitted to witness the cere-
monies attendant upon the story
which is the basis of Mr.. Hirsch's
splendid production.

Gone to Rest.

One of earth's good women died
when Mrs. Margaret Smith passed
to her eternal reward. For months
a sufferer, yet SO cheerful. so serene
was her nature that only a few
knew that her life was one of pain.
She bore this as she had borne
other crosses, without murmuring
and with resignation to Gods will.
Fully interested in the duties of
home and engrossed by them, enjoy
ing the kindly intercourse with
friends and neighbors, for she was
hospitable and always kind, attend
ing the services of her church, her
days We're passed in quiet content
ment, until the heavy hand of suf-
fering was laid upon her, and then
she longer for release.
The death of this good woman and
Christian mother is mourned by her
devoted son, Mr.. Robin Smith of
this city, and by sister, Mrs. Flora
Simpson, and three brothers, Will
liam Robinson, C. C. and E. C. Rob-
inson of Texas.

veyed to the family burying ground

The Burden of the Hour
God broke our years to hours an
days,

God broke our years to hours and
days,
That hour by hour
And day by day,
just going on little way.
We might be able all along,
To keep quite strong.
Should all the weights of life
Be laid across our shoulders and the
future rife,
With woe and struggle meet us face
to face
At just one place,
We could not go;
Our feet would stop and so
God lays little on us every day,
And never, l believe, ON all the way
Will burdens bear so deep,
Or pathways lie so steep,
But we can go, if by Gods power
We only bear the burden of the
hour. Geo. Klingle.

| The Baroness Bertha Won SuttneT
sends the following greeting to the
teachers of the United States on the
promotion of peace: 1.-The peace
movement has taken on three as
pects-as a religion, as a science,
| and as warfare. AS religion 1t
appeals to our highest duties to God
and man, and we have to preach it.
AS a science it's arguments are based
on natural history, on statistics, on
political economy, on sociology and
we have to teach it. As warfare it
rouses our courage for victory, it
Ideepens our contempt for the fol-
lies and cruelties OF the other side,
and we have to fight it.
In Europe, where the military
spirit is supported by thrones,
schools and even churches, the
peace workers fight under difficult
conditions, and we confide in the
help and initiation of the new world.
There your very flag with its forty
eight stars is a symbol of peace, for
it shows the possibilities of the
union of autonomic states, and
therefore the possibility of what is
the peace movements ultimate aim
the federation Of the world.
To you as a nation, you know OF
all others, the price Of liberty and
independence: peace means the in
dependence of humanity. The slaves
have been set free; but as long as
the institution of war persists, as
long as every man can be compelled
to kill his fellow men, we are-all
of us-in slavery
The future will set you many high
tasks and many important prob
lens, but certainly the highest and
most important of all is the peace
question, for it involves almost ev-
cry other, peace being the chief con-
dition of human civilization and
The schools are asked to observe

suggested programme is given from
