BIC CONGREGATION
HEARS ORATOR|O At
CATHEDRAL HOUSE

Attracted by the ambitious plans Of
Trinity choir, quite the largest cou
sregatiOn that has yet gathered in
the cathedral house assembled last
night to hear Mercandante's oratorio
The Seven Last Words They were
rewarded by a treat that proved out
of the ordinary even among the good
musical programs to be heard in
Phoenix.
The cathedral house was crowded;
many sat outside and heard the music
through the opened windows.
Solo work was good and the chorus,
composed of an augmented choir was
exceptional. Although of only an
hours duration, The Seven Last
Words" is classed with the great or
atorios, and is considered one of the
best pieces of ecclesiastical compo-
sition.
William Conrad Mills, choirmaster
had very well balanced choir, one
that carried the deep tones with great
strength, yet facile enough to reach
the high tones that distinguish parts
of the composition. The 5 oloists
were highly appreciated. Mrs. Rede-
willis voice has never been heard tc
better advantage.

WASHINGTON, April 21.-The fed

it's task of supervising the marketing
of what is left of this years Yucatan

Our School Girl.

Our school girl-can we do less
than love her? Can we do more
enjoy her!
Do you not marvel now and then
with smiles, and now and then with
a bit of awe perhaps, at the delicious
contradictions that so strangely make
her up?
She is so newly come from out the
spirit mystery of the great unknown
that sometimes strange memories
haunt her eyes and strange and un-
eXplainable emotions shake her heart,
vet she is so vivid and vital part Of
the everyday world about her that of
ten the pleasure of a single day will
oblterate for her both past and fu-
ture. She is eager and petulant,
dearly selfish, foolish and gay. She
is dull to things that mean wrong and
ugliness to older and wiser people,
she is Needless of the tragedies the
coming years may bring. She blithe-
ly dares the penalties Of her faults
and her frivolities. She laughs and
grows happy over Stiffness and trivi-
ality. She feels herself the center of
a vast universe. She has the wisdom
of inconsequence, and her Judgment
of the conventional standards with
which we halt her flying footsteps is
untrammelled because not biased by
personal knowledge of results. She
has not yet left the fairy borderlands
of childhood. She plays at her work
and forgets her lessons and her tasks,
vet she constantly sets herelf new la
bor in unaccustomed fields.
The girl heart of her is awakening
to its own sweetness. The imperson-
al romance of enchanted castle and
fairy prince is beginning to take on
new aspects of human tenderness and
reality. Childish things hold her
still, yet youth grows strong in her
heart, and the simplest happenings OF
ordinary life are mysterious symbols
beckoning her into the wonderful
Land of Dear Adventure.
She is you-her mother-as you
once were, and she is as carelessly
wise now as you were then. You
would not sadden the world by short
ening her needless days. You would
not have her what you are now, ex-
cept through the process of her own
life's journey.
The vision is still hers-the sweet
ness of gtime-the glamour of an
untried world.
Love her for what she promises to
be. Love her more for that she
does promise it. Love her most for
! the perennial eagerness and youth
with which her golden joy of life has
reillumined your own time-dimmed
years.-Anne Rankin, in September
Southern Woman's.

My Mother.

First prize letter in Southern Wo-
mans recent contest, "WhO Most In
fuenced My Life" This prize was
won by Mae Address, of Washington
City.
During my gtowing-up years it was
my mother who taught me to love
the God of the Open Air" and to
know "the best things are nearest
breath in your nostrils, light in your
eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at
your hand, the path of God just be-
fore you"
She was practical, too, and insisted
that | eat three regular meals each
day. You may smile, but half of my
friends nowadays diet or are unable TO
enjoy their food. My point is that
if they had been taught while grow
ing to eat wholesome things and to
let candy and ice cream alone, they
would now be better able to do the
work the world requires of them.
We lived very simple, but mother
was most painstaking about absolute
cleanliness and neatness. How pa
tiently she would brush and braid my
hair, how carefully she washed and
ironed my plain, white frocks, how in
sistent upon unhurried times for hath
ing. Such a fuss | used to make,
but now I'm glad How many girls
and women lose positions or fail to Sc
cure them because of soiled blouse5,
uncared-for hair, or rundown shoes!
My mother always cautioned NE
against saving money on laundry and
food. Simple clothes, unpretentious
home, short trips if necessary, but
always nourishing food.
The men and women who think that
grit and spirit" only are necessary
to success in life make big mistake.
There are small things like courtesy
and personal neatness that weigh
heavy in the balance.
Broad-mindedness, too, was one Of
my mothers most lovable characteris-
tics. She believed in tolerating 9TH
err peoples ideas. eve don't all
think alike" l have heard her say
dozens of times, or, at takes all kinds
of people to make the world, and
get many pleasant surprises by hunt
ing for the things we do hold in COM
mon."
Another thing that have to thank
my mother for is delight in simple
pleasures. A good play from the
gallery, picnic or a car ride through
the country, an evening at home with
new library book, a circus parade
or music in the park, cup of tea with
much-loved friend, all these,
through her love of them, are real
pleasures to me.
Home is the incest place in the
world. Who made it so? Why,
mother. Indeed has she not made my
life!

THE EDITOR AS :
A POLICEMAN. +


AS a force for the uplifting OF
morals and the prevention OF crime
the country newspaper editor STANDS
head and shoulders above the most
efficient police force than can be as
sembled in any community.
Publicity-that one word-explains
it all.
Little does the offender object to
paving the small fine that is imposed
in a police court. Little does ne
mind his friends knowing that he
has stepped momentarily out of the
straight and narrow.
But after the court proceedings
his steps invariably lead to the local
newspaper office. Cornering the
editor in some remote part of the
sanctum, a conversation something
like this follows:
81 guess you heard that they pull,
ed me last night. forget myself
and wouldn't have had it happen for
the world. 1t doesn't make so much
difference about myself, but just for
the sake of my wife and children and
other people l wanted to ask if you
would do me the little personal favor
of leaving it out. You know | have
always been a steady subscriber and
always use a want ad. in your pa
per when I need anything, and | just
thought that maybe you could leave
this out this time 1t won't ever
happen again, you can bet on that,
and this is the only time I'll ask you"
Here is true story of little
southern city: A leading attorney
was arrested for gambling. He
didn't mind paying the small fine, but
Immediately after court he entered
the newspaper office and said:
"T'd rather have my right arm cut
off than have my name go in the pa
per-"
He meant it too. Petty crime
would increase a hundredfold were
it not for the horror Of publicity.
Whether or not it is better to leave
such items out or to print them is
problem for each individual edior to
decide. There are good arguments
on both sides. But nevertheless the
editor is the greatest preventive for
crime that any town has.-The Am
erican Press.

SOap-Soup-Salvation.

There is nothing facetious about
the Salvation Army's motto of "Soap,
Soup and Salvation" Hunger is
more apt to make thief than phil
osopher of man, and the bitter pur-
gatory of standing in a great city's
bread line has done more than has
patriotic Indignation to foster an
archy. The civic clubs are right;
cleanliness and order must come be-
fore the cultural things, but, like the
soap and soup that precede conversa-
tion, they must come as a prepara-
ton, and not to stand in lieu of the
larger value. The civic cubs are do
ing very, very necessary things.
They are like an array of eager Mar
thas, eager to sweep and garnish the
world. But when the chambers are
prepared and the dust wiped away
what next? Is there a guest to enter
and occupy these rooms? Is there
some fine spiritual value to follow,
some sharing with wishful hearts
these influences which Mary had cho-
sen. and which should mot be taken
from her?"-Garnet Noel Wiley, in
September Southern Woman's.
