Hail to the SuperwOman.

OF course she was bound to come. That has been
evident from the trend Of events from the time OF
Jeanne dare TO the recent victory of Mrs kupl
over the husband who insisted that she go home 10

perbaps the general public didn't quite realize that
she was so near at hand as Bryn Mawr predicts, or
that the final process Of evolution was so simple

The Dove That Turned Into an Eagle.

Time and truth have played an odd trick on our
most distinguished Chautauquan lecturer. WIN
what delight did he select his seal OF state-the III
print of an ancient coin showing beautliul dove
And now what a shock to learn that the dove WAS
really an eagle and eagle at that with Jupiter
Tonans in the foreground and Hercules on the BACK
So goes it all too often with that gentle bird a.
matter Of fact Just when she is soaring her Dest
and glistening most handsomely there is an e1'
plosion and the feathers fly And the eagles OF war
circle triumphantly.
Perhaps this little incident will teach Mr.. Bryan
70 amend his lecture on the Dove of Peace ana IN
clude some slight reference to war-an ola piru'
hard to kill and still much to be feared.

Every one of the 80 members in the

to be able to make the unexpected an
nouneement that William Schuster.

every performance.

numbers, will prove as pleasing as any
