If you can, you are needed to help
the one who is not 50 apt, if you ear
not. then surely you require the bene-
fit Of each rehearsal. In either case
the efficiency of a chorus is not in the
proficiency Of the star performers but
in the good work of all who are sing
ing, and to sing we'll together calls
for hours of practice together, not as
individuals.
Last Monday night rehearsal was
quite well attended md good work
done in learning some new numbers.
There are some parts q the work
which have not yet been touched by
US in our rehcarsals SO far and none
of it will have become so familiar as
to be tedious to any before the final
production.

TO MEMBERS OF CHORAL UNION

Dean Hedge has been obliged to take
a vacation for a month on ccoun OF
his health being taxed over much.
This is partly due to the energy he ex-
pended in connection with the Mes
siah.' and TO his determination to
help with the Elijah as long as pos
sible.
Before leaving for a milder climate.
he expressed the hope hat every mem
Der of the Choral Union would be
faithful in attendance at the rehears-
ais. and said that he would appreciate
as a personal tribute of friendship foI
himself, the loyalty of the members of
the chorus.
You are perhaps ware that the u.,.e
for the singing of oratorio Elijah
has been set for April 18th instead of
March oath 50 as 10 provide for DR..
Stciner's lecture in the y. Nj. c. A..
lecture curse.
This means that there are nine or
ten evenings for learning the choruses
before Dean Hedge returns and takes
up the work Of finishing them off for
the public singing of the oratorio.
Now, will it not be a fine tribute Of
re pect to the choral director to have
these choruses We'll learned before he
gets back, so hat he will need waste
40 time teaching them to us, but can
give the few rehearsals remaining
wholly to bringing u the effective
ness of this magnificent composition?
In order to accomplish this task
each individual should be in his or
her place on rehearsal niyht, and de
vote tie hour to good hard work, and
be as regular in attendance as posi-
ble-that is allow nothing of minor i'm
portan to interfere with the choral
work. Whether you can readily learn

DR.. Stewart, who is conducting
the services at the Methodist
church, has delivered a number
of strong sermons this week. His
messages are %forceful, full of
thought and highly pleasing to
the large audiences. His quiet
manner of speaking finds ready
response. The address Tuesday
evening was of a patriotic ma
ture and while rather long was
enjoyed and appreciated. The
special singing is under the di-
cection of Rev. Stoll. of Aurora.
and the orchestra is under the
direction of Prof. Carl Christen-
sen, of State College. The half
hour musical program preceding
the gospel service adds much in
terest and appreciation.

adding to 1t a little butter, salt, and pep per, and to each ordinary sized cheese put a tablespoon of chopped pimentos. Spread on thin bread from which the crust has been trimmed, cut into triangular sandwiches or into strips, and serve. It gives dainty touch to have the sand wiches in trefoils, diamonds, etc.; and special cutters come for this purpose but much bread is wasted by this method of cutting.
 CREAM CHEESE AND OLIVE SAND

 Prepare just as directed for cream cheese and pimento sandwiches, but put dozen stoned olives, minced fine, with the cheese. instead of the pimentos. CREAM CHEESE AND sALTED NUT
 SANDWICHES
 Again follow the first recipe given for cream cheese sandwiches, but put a gen. erous tablespoon of salted pecans chopped, with the cream cheese before spreading it on the bread.
 CREAM CHEESE AND LETTUCE
 SANDWICHES.
 Prepare any one of the filings just given. spread 1t on one piece of the bread cut for the sandwich, lay on this a leaf of lettuce that has been dipped into French dressing, place the second slice of bread over this, press down lightly, cut the sandwich into any shape desired, and serve. Or you may use the plain cream cheese, worked soft with butter, salt, pepper, and a little cream, and put the lettuce leaf with this, emitting the other seasonings or additions.

He has always wanted to know how to play the violin and can al- ready play the clarinet, and want to get him one so that he can play in the Sunday school orchestra and thus form a tie to hold him to the church. which he is be- ginning to neglect.

fore serving in 8 napkin on a hot plate. CREAMED CHICKEN SANDWICHES
 Chop the breast or other white meat of a chicken fine, putting it through the grinder. if possible. Work it into paste with little butter and cream, season to taste with salt and white pepper, and spread it on thinly buttered bread. This is good made with whole wheat bread.
 JELLY SANDWICHES.
 Cut bread thin, butter it lightly, and spread on it thin layer of any good fruit jelly. Grape, quince, or currant is espe- cially good. Cut into neat pieces of what ever shape you choose. Take pains to be moderate in the use of the jelly, that none of this may run out to soil the gloves or fingers of the eater.
 CREAM CHEESE AND JAM SAND
 wTCHES.
 Work half of a cream cheese soft with a little cream and two tablespoons of raspberry or current jam. The paste should be soft enough to spread easily on whole wheat or white bread. These sandwiches may be pleasingly varied by using orange or grapefruit marnalade instead of jam, but the preserved fruit in this case should be chopped fine to avoid the stringy effect of long pieces of the rind.
 MAPLE SANDWICHES.
 Prepare the cream cheese as directed in the preceding recipe and put with it two tablespoons of grated maple sugar Or you may spread the buttered bread with the grated sugar first, and then on the other slice place the softened cream cheese. This combination is also ex- tremely good when put upon plain, un- sweetened crackers that have been light ly crisped in the oven.
 FIG SANDWICHES.
 Chop & dozen figs fine with half as many walnut meats, soften with cream, and spread on thin cut white or Boston brown bread which has been lightly but tered.

Needs q Wheeled Chair.

U About a year ago wrote to you for a couple of addresses and was able to help both parties. Since then my husband has met with an accident and TOW am coming to you for help. He is crippled and it is hard for him to walk even with crutches Our financial circumstances are too straitened to permit him to ride ex- cept on the street cars, and in his crippled condition it is hard for him to get off and on these. I wonder if any of our Corner ites has a wheeled chair that my hus- band could run himself. If he had some way to get around he could earn little money. If there is any one who could grant this favor it certainly would be ap- preciated. as the help 1t would afford my husband in making little money would be a great benefit for the children and need his support. MRS. M. F. B. !"
 It is a long while since have asked a wheeled chair. and hope the gift or loan of one may be forthcoming. I will gladly furnish the address of this cor respondent to any one who can be of assistance to her in any way.
