ORGAN DEDICATED
NEXT SUNDAY
Instrument Adapted To Needs
Of Church

The handsome new pipe organ
that is being installed in st.
Thomas Episcopal Church will be
dedicated at the morning services
II o'clock on Sunday. It was
largely through the hard work of
the rector, the Rev. Walter G.
Haupt, and a committee of women
of the church that sufficient funds
were raised to secure aid from the
Carnegie Organ fund, thereby
making the new instrument pos
sible. A vested choir was also or
ganized several weeks ago and the
new organ, it is expected, will
greatly assist the choir. When the
organ was first talked of several
builders were considered but after
visit made by Mr.. Haupt, to the
M. P. Moller plant at Hagerstown,
Nd, which is the largest and best
equipped factory in America de-
voted exclusively to building pipe
organs, it was decided to give that
concern the contract. A large con-
gregation is expected at the ded-
ication services on Sunday.
AS the amount of space avail
able for the organ, was limited,
and the church did not require
great power, the builder departed
from the usual type of organ in
preparing the specifications, in
order to secure the widest variety
that could be built within the
space and to provide for the Choir
and Sanctuary. In order to do
this the Moller patented duplex
action was used, so that any stop
is playable on either manual,
either in solo or accompaniment,
individually or in combination
with other stops, multiplying many
times the tonal possibilities of the
instrument. The console is de-
tached and placed at the opposite
side of the chancel and yet the res
ponse is as prompt and touch of
keys as light as that of the best
piano, even when full organ is be-
ing played
The mechanical part of the in
strument is noted for it's simpli-
city of construction, fine material
and splendid workmanship while
the design is in harmony with the
Church interior so that architect
ually the organ looks part of the
Church without any suggestion OF
incongruity.
While the instrument is mode
of the builders art mechanically
, it's greatest charm lies in its tona
qualities, special care being takel
in the voicing of the various reg
listers, and the tone which char
acterizes the different instrument

ART EXHIBIT AT
GRAMMAR SCHOOL
Interesting Sketches Prepared
By Pupils

An interesting Art Exhibit, the
work of the children of the pri-
mary and grammar schools, has
been on display in the Newark
Grammar School building during
the last week. The exhibits were
prepared by children in grades /
to 8 inclusive.
The exhibit of the First ana
Second grades, includes many
butterfly and violet drawings. Es-
pecially clever in this exhibit, is
the butterfly by David Cole of the
First Grade, the bunny by Elmer
Lindell, and the little girl by Re-
becca Cam, in the Second. The
Third grade exhibit presenting
many pussy willow and violet
sketches, includes a clever draw
ing of bull frogs, the work of Mar
ion Roberts. In the Fourth grade
section pussy willow sketches by
Anne Fader and Catherine Grier
are especially we'll drawn and
carefully colored. A flag, and a
dog tooth violet plant by William
Hayes, a drawing of the Goose
Girl and another of the. Mayhower
by Mildred Miller, are also very
good. In the Fifth grade, F. E
Willey's interior scene is especial
ly clever, also the maps of the
United States by Nelson Bryson,
Evelyn Worrall, the Pigs at the
Trough, by Evelyn Worrall, the
Sunbonnet Baby by Hattie Lewis
the Owl and the Moon, by Gaylor
Brown, the landscape by Pauline
Widdoes, and the Easter Card, by
C. E. Cornog.
The Sixth grade exhibit includes
many dainty drawings of the
spring flowers. The Seventh Grade
presents a number of water colors
An especially artistic one of these
is the sketch with the cat tai
rushes in the foreground, by Addie
Flanders; also the Snowy Heron
by George Green. A butterfly by
Addie Flanders is skillfully color
ed. In the Eighth grade group is
an especially pleasing and accur
ate bit of work by Sophia McPher
son,-the gateway at the entrance
to the College Farm. This exhibit
also includes a number of charcoa
sketches. Of especial merit is tht
peak of Rocky Mountains in Col
orado," by E. Chambers.
Perhaps the most attractive ex
hibit is that of the sixth to eighth
grade overflow, prepared under tn
direction of Miss Bertha Mckee
teacher. This collection, which il
done in chalk, includes numbe
of clever landscapes by Gladly
Rose, and Dorothy Hoffecker, ant
a Blue Jay, which is especial.
good, by Rossiter Wanamaker.
There are also on exhibit mum
Der of artistic candle shades, dec
Grated with conventional motifs
made by children Of the fourtl
grade, under the direction of Mis-
Pennington. The exhibit shoul'
attract the attention of all thos
interested in the development o
Arts and Crafts in the grades
With practically no supplies fur
nished, and without a professiona
art teacher, the schools have pre-
sented an exhibit of credit to tn
community.

The home-bred love of home, of

true and graphic picture of rural
country life, with Quincy Adams
Sawyer, a shrewd and affectionate
end thoroughly human type of Ameri-

ST. FRANCES OF ROME.

st. Frances was born at Rome in
1884. Her parents were of high
rank and they overruled her desire to
become a nun and married her, at
the age of twelve, to Lorenzo Pom

devoted much of her time to the al
deviation of the sufferings of the poor.
During the invasion Of Rome, in lab,
Ponziano was banished, his estates
confiscated,. his house destroyed and
his oldest son taken as hostage.
Frances accepted these hardships un-
complainingly. When peace was re-
stored Ponziano recovered his estates,
and Frances founded the Oblates. At
ter her husbands death she is said to
have wandered barefoot and with a
cord about her neck and begged ad-

founded. She was admitted and soon

U. S. EXPERTS
POTATO HINTS

Boiled potatoes are at their best
when mealy, SO after boiling, the
water should be poured off, a little
salt sprinkled over the potatoes, and
the kettle not quite covered, and
placed on the back Of the stove so
that they may "dry out" IF you
wish a novelty in boiling new pota-
toes, add a few mint leaves to the
water in which they are cooked
In baking potatoes one should al
ways remember that, to be at their
best, they should be served as soon
as they are, done. If one can not
serve them at once, the skin on. one
side should be slashed in order to
allow the steam to escape, and the
potatoes kept hot.
Fried potatoes are also favorites
and the ways in which. they can be
either fried in deep fat or pan fried
are Numerous and well known. Fried
potatoes seasoned with, onion are a
common dinner dish, and one should
remember that green peppers can be
used with the onion or in place of
them
Potatoes With Sause or Cheese.
Potatoes baked with white sauce
and cheese, scalloped potatoes, and
similar dishes can be used in place
Of macaroni and spaghetti, and potato
dumplings can be used in place Of
wheat dumplings. Cooked in com
bination with other foods, in meat
pie, for instance, potatoes may be
depended on as the principal dinner
dish. There are also number of
dishes, such as potato pudding, which
can be used at dinner in place of
sweets made of wheat flour.
