which some three years ago made per-
manent an injunction restraining the
famous Felix Wcingartner from con

Banished for Breaking Contract.
The Punishment of Weingartner
came about through proceedings
brought against him by Count Won
Hulscn- Ilaeseler. director of the Roy
al Opera House, for breach of con-
tract. Friends who shared his indig-
nation suggested the idea of bringing
the famous conductor back To Berlin
on a moving picture film, but the
cinematograph firms declared that
technical difficulties of synchroniza-
tion were insuperable. Eventually,
however, experiments were made. en-

orchestras which was led by Vein

witnessed the experiments and declar-
ed them complete artistic success.

over the conductors stand, and the
audience sees his back, while his face
is turned toward the orchestra, maxi

The idea makes it possible for the

COMPANIONSHIP IS NEEDF,D
ON JOURNEY THROUGH LIFE,

Kingdom each had it's mate but man.
Man, gregarious animal, was
lonesome, he needed companionship.
Ana God saw that he Was lonesome!
ANA the Lord God said i. il not good
that the man should be alone; | will
make him an help NEE; for him. so
God created man i'm His own image, i'm
the image of God created ne him: male
and female created he them. We see.
that man has upon him the image and
likeness of His maker. and he ought to
serve Him faithfully. Some one has
said: a man without companion is

In the industrial and commercial
affairs Of life, we know that two are
better than one The commerce of ma =
tons is so interviewer, that there is no
nation, however isolated, that can get
along without the help of the COM
merce of other nations. And there is
no nation so great AMI powerful, but
that needs an outlet for it's exports.
And il is this great fact, together With
day bringing the nations of the earth
closer together; and which will ulti-
mately hasten the day. when nations
shall learn war no more.
I'VE have learned that in our social
and fraternal affairs. Two are better
than one. We need companionship.
We can scarcely live without it.. About
the very worse punishment that can
be meted out to "a criminal is To put
him into solitary confinement.
From childhood we have been ac-
quainted with the story OF Robinson
Crusoe,' and we know how lonely he
was before Man Friday came, but
when he found him, life again was
worth living. 1t is because man feels
this need of companionship. that he

help and benefit.
In the spiritual realm, in far
greater sense it is true. that. Two are

but man fell, and grievous was the
fall. He was not left alone, however,
for God provided a way whereby he
could still live under the smile and
appreciation of Heaven. God sent His
Son To redeem all those who came un-
der the curse. Man could not work
out his own salvation; but. God sent
II own Son to redeem him, to help
him back to God.
Men! You are i'm a lodge. because
YOU felt your need of companionship
and because of the society il affords
you; but there is something that YOU
need that the lodge cannot supply. and
never will be able to supply, and that
something is your salvation from sin.
Jesus alone can help you in that re-
spect. and the church, which Christ
has purchased with His own blood can
point YOU to Him. If YOU will look Ia
Him i'm your hour of need, you will
find the words of solomon, the wise
king of Israel TO be true, that Two are
better than one. because they have n

The collar is especially important
to the simple little untrimmed frock
which has been so popular for the
past season and promises to be so
much favored for spring.
Draped and fichu effects vie for
favor with the small round fiat col

anese collar, which extends away
from the neck in back and in some
extreme cases flares considerably on
the shoulders. seems to be approved
also.
The separate vests and collars of
white organdy are exceedingly
smart and becoming. When worn
with a dark serge or silk frock a
wonderfully fresh crisp strong note
is impaired to the design by the
sharp contrast.

HOW TO BRIGHTEN
AN INVALID'S LIFE

Even in the suburbs, where the
views from the windows are likely to
be much broader, and for that reason
more interesting, than views from the
windows of a city house, a person
who is confined to one room gets very
tired of the same surroundings. says
the Philadelphia Public Ledger To
make little diversion for sucn ali
invalid try changing the pictures on
the wall, where she can see from her
bed, every little while.
The pictures need not be expensive;
pretty pictures may be found at small
prices, or, by taking a little time and
patience, different pictures may be
put in the same frame.
Do not tell the sick person when
the change is to he made, but let
her awake some morning to see an
other picture in the place of the one
that was there when she went to
sleep.
When one lies for hours with little
to think about much pleasure is
gained by looking at an interesting
picture.

did not speak.
Salveig had noticed that he had her
silver cup, taking a look at 1t. That

he went away, three years ago. 1 was

best.
The man looked first at the cup, then
at the child, but still kept silent.
Salveig came nearer to him and
said: Have you a little girl?''

he said again, 81 had once little girl.
She was very pretty. Quite as pretty
as you, my child, but she was but

little girl had mother, a very pretty
