went forth to battle for country and
her king. Nothing so richly costumed
or so effectively presented has ever
been given here before. The opening
pageant, the gallet of dancing girls and
the tournament were yeritable sur

the circus performance IN which $40
men and women appeared, More nov

the Ringlings having brought from

clans assembled at The High School
auditorium last Wednesday afternoon
for a goodly purpose, that of self
culture" in a musical way.
This little band organized itself
for the year with the idea of work
lowering over it, so to speak. Ard
more has long been musical" with
out doubt, but things have not
been concentrated; we have lacked
organization really. Let it be known
to tie public that from now on
this will be changed.
Undoubtedly one of our most able
musicians was unanimously chosen
as president. The one, in fact, who
has "mothered." as it were, this
association, Mrs. j. 4. Pennington,
As vice president Mrs Harold Wal
lace was elected, having always been
"prC gressiye." As secretary, Rachel
Campbell was elected, and as treas
urer, Miss Dorothy Dickson. 1t was
decided that no small office for a
musical club would be its director.
For this. one Of experience and good
taste must be chosen-as result,
Mrs. DIR. n. c. Wood was elected
without any objections.
1t was decided the meetings should
be held at p. m. each first and
third Wednesday of the month. 1t
was further decided that there should
be three classes of membership, that
is, active members, associate mem
bers and student members. These
last will be those who are at pres
ent under the supervision of some
music teacher Their object will ne
to "listen and learn" The active
member will be assessed two (S2j
dollars for the year; the associate
members one dollar and hall t$l.5O)
and the student members Cne dollar
$1,000. The president appointed a
committee for the drawing up OF
the bylaws and the making of the
constitution. These were Mrs. Harry
Harts. Mrs. Tom Frame, Mrs. Harold
Young, Miss Floy Alyis and Miss
Lillian McNees. The director of the
club was appointed chairman of the
program committee, but none others
have been selected as yet.
This association has been con-
founded with the "Music Lovers AS
sociation." While the two will CO.
operate beautifully, they are by nc
means the same thing
Certainly the three classes ct
members mentioned include every
one. We therefore urge all wht
are interested to meet at 5 p. m. at
Mrs J. r. Pennington's home next
Wednesday. that We may finish oui
work.
A short program will be rendered
ot tho next meeting, and. as the
club has not been definitely named
as vet. It was suggested that eacf
member bring a fitting name FOL
submission.

THE GREAT Bic
HOLIDAY IS HERE

When the sun arose this morning.
it found plenty of opposition in the
railroad yards where Ringling Broth
ers' trains were unloading all OF their
red and golden circus. Four trains
brought the big show into the city
with Sc ears, bringing 1,5O0 people,
more than coo horses, herds of ele-
phants and the famous harness teams
of camels and zebras No alarm clocks
were needed to get the small boy
out of bed this morning for he was
down at the tracks before dawn wait
ing for the first glimpse of the cir
Gus. and there was with this youth
full throng large majority of those
real red-bloCded boys who never grow
up, and are always peter Pans when
the circus comes to town and just as
eager to lead the spotted ponies to
water.
The first section brought the com.
missary department and long before
the gas stove had been lighted in the
home kitchen, there was pleasant
aroma of coffee and ham and eggs
coming across the meadows from the
cook house. With wonderful rapldlly
Steward Webb had his department in
full blast, and as fast as the working
men arrived they We're served not
breakfast And if anybody thinks II
is an easy task to feed 1900 people,
think of having to do this three times
day and each day in a different
town. The second and third sections
brought the equipment and parade
wagons, while on the last were all the
performers and the long string OF
sleeping cars with the dancing girls
of the Joan of Arc ballet which this
season is an added feature of the
show.
Circus day had hardly dawned when
people began coming into the city. All
railways and country roads led to the
blue pannanted canvas city. All of the
railroads brought in excursions on
special trains and long before the pa
rade reached the town. the streets
were thronged with people. The Ring
! ling Brothers have always kept their
promises and their loudly heralded
street pageant was another proof that
their word is good. No more glitter
ing and brilliant display has ever
been made in this city The parade
nearly three miles in length was one
unending array of novelties, light and
color. The famous Ringing horses,
both in the teams and the cavalcades,
mounted by men and women in the
| gorgeous costumes of the time OF
Charles VII made a splendid show
ing. Pretty and effective pictures
were made by the tableau cars which
were filled with girls in gay garb.
There was plenty of music and our
old friends, the clowns received 4
welcome equal to a congressman com
ing home with a job for every office
hunter.
The afternoon performance began
at 2 o'clock and the big tent was
crowded. Opening the bill came the
spectacle of Joan of Arc in which
more than 1000 characters appear
telling in pantomime the dramat.c

Soft as slumber, faery-light;
Let tho notes seductive play
Charm the rhythmic hours away
Picture me in cunning stave;

Rippled with the breath of dreams
Isles that shipman never vaunted,
Woodlands faun and dryad-

From the prison house Of sense.
Make me music for a night,
Secret wise with all delight;

see how it's beginning to affect nae,
don't you? After session with that
Motley individual feel as if I wore
large checked, shigh-water inexpress-
ibles and red whist ers and had to
talk up to them. Believe me, sweet
Aunt, it's demoralizing. I pity his
wife-if he ever gets one"
II don't see any reason why he
shouldn't" said Aunt Jane.
Il d." replied Mrs. Merriwid. HE
couldn't pay lady any serious atten-
ton. AS between a funny man and a
fat man, dearie, the fat man stands
the best chance o. being loved. Mr.
Motley would say he couldn't stand a
slim chance, but, thank heaven! I'm
not Mr.. Motley-or Mrs. Motley. You
know, pet, we like to be taken seri-
ously. Perhaps because we haven't
any sense Of humor. I'll tell you
about that, Precious: If what Mr..
Motley and others of his noble sex are
afflicted with is q sense of humor, let
us offer thanks that In all our close
association with them we havn't
caught it. I'll say for poor dear Hen
ry Merriwid that he hadn't any to
speak of. If I told Henry all at once
that the girl we had engaged the day
before had departed at three p. m.
with my souvenir coffee spoons and
that the water front in the kitchen
range had burst and that the moths
had got into my furs and ruined them
and that I'd been omitted from the in
vitations to Mrs. Swellup's reception
and spattered hot fat on my arm fry
ing the potatoes and that the dress
maker had sent back my SKIRT with
Fuckers all down the seams, Henry
wouldn't have leaned back in his chair
and whooped with merriment. That's
what Mr. Motley would do. He'd in
stantly see the funny side of it, and
the next thing you know I'd be trying
to make a good impression on SYM
pathetic jury. There's one thing: If
I made a plea Of justification on the
aforementioned grounds, it would
tickle their sense of humor to such
an extent that they'd aquit me without
leaving their box
How can you talk so, Melissa?"
said Aunt Jane, reproachfully.
"Dearie," replied Mrs. Merriwid,
"men like Mr. Motley ought to be ex-
terminated. Life isn't anything more
than joke to them-at the other
fellows expense It's a scream when
fellow being slips on something and
fractures his spine; and when some
body's new fve-dollar hat blows off
and rolls in the mud, he bowls with
JOY. Language is something for him
to play on, the Jew is a 'kike,' the
Irishman is a harp the Italian a

'dago' and the negro SMOKE and
their mission in life is to furnish fun
ny stories about themselves for him
to tell. That's proud mans sense of
humor-and 1 wish somebody could
tell me where the sense comes in. A
woman can't see anything particularly
mirth-provoking when people are
butted by goats or kicked by mules;
II takes the fine perception of the mas
culine mind to properly appreciate the
ludicrous element in the casualty
ward"
1T was only yesterday morning
that you laughed when l burned my
my front with the curling iron," Aunt
Jane accused.
Mrs. Merriwid giggled at the recol-
lection. II know I did, dearie," she
admitted, "but it wasn't so much the
calamity as the way you looked, and
besides, I didn't bray. There's diff
ference between musical cachin-
natory tinkle and haw-haw. l
haven't got a red face and bullying
buttermilk eyes, hope. I don't wear
fancy waistcoats and patent leather
shoes with scalloped tan cloth tops. I
don't shave my neck or drench my
handkerchiefs with cologne or brush
six-inch strand of moist hair across
a bald spot"
II don't see what that has to do
with it," said Aunt Jane.
Then you must be suffering with
astigmatism, myopia and strabismus,"
replied Mrs. Merriwid. II don't take
anything back about the disadvantages
OF chronic cut-up from social and
matrimonial points Of view, but
man can be perfectly killing, the life
of the party and even sad wag-if
he's the kind that can get away with
it,
Then infer that your objection to
Mr.. Motley is based rather upon his
personal appearance and manner than
his characteristic propensity to jest"
with it, said Aunt Jane.
