The Presbyterian choir have selected
The Daisy Chain to represent the Occi-
dent In their O~ccidental-O Oriental con
cert May 5. The Daisy Chain consists
quartets. with music by Liza Lehman,
The words to Ave Of them are taken
from A Child's Garden of Verses BY
Robert Louis Stevenson; two are by
Laurence. Alma-Tadema, two by Nor
man Gale and two are anonymous. The
Yankee spirit of boastfulness IL a little
In evidence In the opening quartet.
S~tevenson's child's ong to Foreign
Children, beginning-
Little Indian, Sioux or Crow,
Little frosty Esquimo,
Little Turk or Japanee

Fairies may linger and Turk;
Look! under the long grass shadows
Perhaps you may see them at work"
In ~Stevenson's Keepsake Mill, the
musical accompaniment suggests the
humming of the mill-wheel.
Here is the mill with the humming
of thunder,
Here Is the weir with the wonder Of

If no one I'VE marries me
And I don't see why they should,
For nurse says I'm not pretty
And I'm seldom ever good"
Stars" The Moon" Mustard and
Cress," THE Swing" Seeing the
World" The Ship that Sailed into

Norman Gales Child's song Of
Thanks 10 delightful in its frank spirit
of devotion to the Father. It begins:
Thank you very much indeed
River, for your waving reed:
Pansies, for your silky cheeks;
Chaff1nches for singing beaks;
Spring, for wood
Near the messy toes of trees.
But, blest Father high above,
. All these joys are from Thy love.
And your children everywhere
Born in palace, lane or square,
Cry with voices all agreed,
Thank you very much indeed"
The concluding song, Blindrna ans
Buff, refers to h fact that our faith
ers, our mothers, u grandfathers and
grandm9thers played before u.s.
That the chicks of mother Eve
Played the self-same game,
Played it just the same"
Words and music are a merry riot of
musical fun. The entire group of songs
is the musical expression Of spring
time, of happiness, Of exultant hope,
and Of buoyant youth that is typical of
the western world. Beautiful music
welded to charming verse have given
Us a delightful tone-picture that SYM
the Occident.
Food reform is the latest departure
in women's club work. If plans of the
que materialize there will be few dys-
peptics in this state n year from now.
The league has started a movement to
encourage the study Of dietetics among
the housekeeDers of the state. The wo-
mems clubs AVE for years made house,
hold economics n of their activities,
but there are very few organizations
take UP dietetics as a branch of
their work. An investigation of the
appalling lack of knowledge on the part
of the average ~housekeeper and moth
ers as to what a well balanced meal
and why her children should be
given n~6urishing foods for lunches in
has resulted In this work of encourag-
ing women to know more about food
and food properties. Work of
accomplishing the food reform will be
done by. the Homeopathic leagys
physicians wives of the state. A COM
OF st. Paul and Minneapolis wo-
men has undertaken to get in touch
with the most active and practical club
in each small toFn, and with physi-
wives in towns where there are
clubs, and through these organiza-
tons and individuals the committee
will organize small clubs for the study
1f dietetics exclusively. Programs for
years work of these proposed die
.etic clubs will be to make a scientific
study of the arrangement OF menus for
family means, planning II the pro-

planning Of each days menu so that
