DELIGHTFUL MUSICAL

Four Brattleboro Women Hostesses at
Gathering of About 200 in Uni

A delightful afternoon of music was af-
forded nearly 200 persons yesterday,
who by invitation of Mrs George +. Fos-
ter, Mrs Anthony F. Schwenk, Mrs. Les
lie ). Edwards and Mrs. Clarence w.
Reed, hostesses, assembled at the Unita-
rian parish house at 3 O'Clock to hear Mrs.
Martha Atwood Baker, soprano, and ID,
Walter Boyd, tenor, both of Boston. 1t
was a rare musical treat and the audi
ence was demonstrative and appreeiative.
DR.. Boyd, who has clear tenor voice of
wide range, enunciating so that every word
can be easily understood, was especially
pleasing in his rendering of The Perfect
Day and in a duet with Mrs Baker. He
was repeatedly encored, and responded
generously. Mrs. Baker held the audi
enee under a delightful spell during each
number which she gave. Her personality
is charming and she possesses a wonderful
voice, which she uses in thoroughly artis-
tic manner. Her rendering of two little
German songs at the beginning of the
program was captivating, as was The Rain.

tions by this composer, also by request

A BUSY TIME FOR
SECRETARY OF STATE
Mr. Bailey Must Hustle to Meet the
Requirements of the Newly En-
acted Primary Law.

MONTPELIER, March II. - While
the rest of the state today celebrates
st. Patrick s day the staff of the sec
rotary of state is wondering how much
overtime must be put in to comply with
the requirements of the recently enact
ed primary law Section of the act
saws that at least 40 days before the
time of holding any primary the sec
retary of state shall transmit to each
town clerk notice designating the of
fees for which candidates are to be
chosen. . Wednesday was the date set
By law for the canvassing of the re-
turns on the recent primary act and
Saturday next is the latest date on
which the secretary of state can issue
a proclamation announcing the fact
that the primary law has been adopted.
Between March Is and April Secre-
tary Baily is to start the machinery
for the primary vaudeville and from
the latter date to the state and ma
tional election next November this de-
partment of the state government is
to have the primary law as knitting
work
Every candidates S petition for state
officer, United States senator and
member of Congress must be gone over
with microscope or a fine tooth comb
lest the same signer s name appears on
the petition of more than one eandi-
date for the same office. The amount
of time this will take can only be con
jectured.
The secretary of state must also pre-
pare ballots for the primaries in which
state officers are named. The result OF
the various primaries must be can
vassed and proclamations issued. These
are but few of the tasks imposed
upon the secretary of state by the new
! law.
In addition to several score of othel
requirements the secretary becomes
tribunal in handling dozen or NOR,
phases of the law before discrepancies
or misunderstanding may occur.
With two Sundays omitted, the sec
retary of state has 13 days left il
! which to prepare all forms necessar,
to carry out the provisions of thi
act,' and it looks as though Mr. Bale,
will be as busy as a robin picking u
peas on a slate roof.

Agitation Has Already In
terfered with the War
Office Arrangements
PROTRACTED DEBATE
IN HOUSE OF COMMONS
May Extend Military Age of Single
Men to 45 Years-Feeling That Com
pulsion Act Should Extend TO the
Married Men.

LONDON, March lit was well past
i o'clock this morning when the house OF
commons adjourned after a protraeted de-
bate, nominally on army estimates, but
really covering a wide range of topics.
There were many heated passages re-
garding the problem of calling ont the
married men. 1t il stated that widespread
agitation on the part Of the married men
had already interfered somewhat with the
Office arrangements, but there is little
doubt that the calling out of further groups
OF married men has been only briefly
postponed.
Among the proposals now being eonsid-
cred is that of extending the military age
FOR single men TO A. years.
There is also a widespread feeling that
the compulsion act should be extended 70
the married men, as a considerable part OF
the i'll feeling among the married men now
being called upon Is due TO the fact that
they who voluntarily enroll under the
Derby scheme must 60 into the army.
while the married men who declined the
invitation TO enroll are allowed TO continue
in their civil occupations.
