Henry la Barre Jayne.
In an address on the future of poetry
delivered last night before the Con-
temporary Club, Mr.. Noyes held that
every great poet is necessarily an OPP
timist Of larger dimensions and that
all great poetry of the time to come
will be basically religious in inspir-
alton. The aggregate Pessimism of
The age will be negligible in compar-
fson with the faith that the inspired
poet may fetch again to the world.
The nearer poetry approaches me-
cation, the nearer it, like any other
thought, approaches worthlessness.
"The age, " said Mr.. Noyes, 'has
outgrown its literary garments. not.
ably in the field of criticism. We are
IN danger of intellectual disintegration.
The freak of the moment is widely

BIG FEET INDICATED.


So many unkind things have been
said about the big feet Of Chicago
girls that it is refreshing to find
some defepse of them. Now comes
the president Of the Retail Shoe
Dealers association with the asser-
ton that While Chicago girls do
have the largest feet, yet their pedal
tiles are things of beauty if not joys
forever. With good logic he de-
clares that foot should be judged
by its shape and not by its size, and
when put to this supreme test the
Chicago foot captures all the gate
money. And thus is another SANDER
chased to its hole.

control of conservation work in op-
position to the state rights plan has
loomed large as one of the most vital
problems before the annual meeting
of the National Conservation con-
gress, which opened here today. With
more than 1000 delegates present
from all sections of the country led
by Clifford Pinchot and Charles L.
Pack, there was strong prospect of
forceful movement for exclusive
national supervision of conservation.
Leaders, however, at the outset
looked for a bitter contest on this
proposal. Speakers today declared
that the regular session of congress
will have many problems involving
this issue, with forest and water pow
er grabbers seeking to influence
against the national control.
Another important phase of the
convention schedule is the proposed
discussion of fire waste prevention in
cities and forests. The delegates to-
day sought to organize movement

The near future promises world of
interest to local lovers of music and
frolic with the advent of a large and
capable aggregation of musical stars,
headed by Sydney De Gray, in Karl
Hohchna's scintillating gem, Madame
Sherry.
This masterpiece was ushered into
the limelight with the rage and popu-
larity of the Viennese operas, and in
the past three seasons it's lifting and
tuneful strains have been carried to
the remotest corners of civilization.
"Madame Sherry" aside from it's
richness in comedy and melody,
abounds in scenic lavishness and gor-
geous costumes, and carries the same
chorus that has brought it so much
fame.
