one, was that which was found bby
those who went to the EIks' Club
Last evening 10 hear Nine. Labadie

EIks OF this city. Nine Labadie gave
her audience a genuine and memora-
Bile treat; it amounted 10 a yeritabIe
triumph.
A Dolls House" reveals Ibsen
in his most lllabIe vein. The story
of Nora HeImer's forging OF her IA
TIERS name to promisorg note ON
which she had borrowed a sum OF
money from a despicable lawyer to
save the life of her husband, her dis
covery that she has committed seri
Gus offense. her terror at the thot
her plight when her husband learn
ed the truth, and her ignorance in
,reat world of affairs, is all portray
ed wildly and clearly. The suffer-
rs OF the woman is made vital, and.
he various emotions are gripping
n their intensity.
Nine Labadie's visit was a real
1rivilege, for Grand Rapids, and is
70 be regretted that there were not
more who took advantage of this
great opportunity to hear her. II
5 safe 10 say that should she come,
again there would be a much Iarger
uiience 10 hear her.
As it was there was a goodly num-
Der who attended this rare treat
III who went away pleased that

THE WORK Of
PATRIOTIC ORDERS

The annual Congress of the
Daughters Of the American Revolu-
zion dn session at Washington recent
", always attracts a great deal OF
interest A member OF this order
once remarked, that when these dele
gates set down 10 Washington, they
fight like eats This perhaps ac-
counts in part for the large amount
OF newspaper space given to these
meetings.
Whether or not this was a fair crit
icism. warm ricalries and even acer-
bjty of controversy reveal that an or
ganizauon has internal energy and
contains forces capable OF good.
In the earlier history of some pa
triotie orders, it sometimes seem
ed as if the members got together
10 celebrate the glories OF their own
blood and lineage quite as much as
10 perform any patriotic service,
Some people are so conscious of the
superiority of their ancestry they
feel no need OF making any efforts
on their own part.
Yet there is real work for these
orders to do. The days of 10 are
nearly a century and a half ago. Il
is all ancient history. To the youn
person in the schools it is as re
mote as julius Caesar or Agamem-
non. Teachers should be thorough
students Of American history, become
familiar with the lives of the great
Revolutionary patriots, and make
these lives vivid TO their pupils by
narrative and anecdOte.
AS warriors. you almost have to g
back to the Spartans at Thermopylac

As makers Of a government. the
Fathers were pioneers in a new
field. Other peoples had previously
created republics. They were repub-
lies only in name being merely socie-

The constitution makers of our ma
tion were as much pioneers as the
hardy men who went out into the
prairtes and fened forests and
fought Indians. The Daughters of
the american Revolution and other
similar societies need never lear
