Gilchrist Memorial Is
Impressive Service

A most beautiful and Impressive
memorial service in honor of the late
Wr William Wallace Gilchrist, who
for eighteen years was conductor of
the Harrisburg Choral Society, was
attended by a large number of the
eminent composers admirers and
friends last evening in Zion Lutheran
Church.
The musical numbers were most
ably performed by the chorus and
these soloists iss Sara Lemer, vio-
linist; Mrs. William Bumbaugh, Mrs
Roy G. Cox. Miss Heicher, George SUIT
ton, M. d. Hollenbaugh, Charles Cas-
sci and Mr.. Decevee, who gladly gave
their services in token of the high re-
gard they had for DR.. Gilchrist
Immortality and Music" was the
subject of the Rev. S. w. Hermans s
very appropriate and interesting ad-
dress, in which he said: "The fact
that a voice is stilled that thrilled
those who heard it with it's gifted
power; that a mind and heart will no
longer conceive for earthly enjoyment
aad blessing melodies that clothe
thoughts with garments of rare
beauty; that an arm and hand which
seemed to summon response from
throats and souls. entering into and
interpreting the words. the thoughts
and soul interests of the greatest of
the worlds composers-all of these
seemingly sad facts are negatiVed by
the greater fact that with Macdonald
we can say, L came from God, and
am going back to God, and 1 will not
have any gap of death in the middle
of my life"
That which is most vital. then, is
not the tongue or hand, but the i'm
mortal spirit.
THE question of immortality in this
moment. confronted as we are by
memories of we'll spent, service filed
life seems the best proved hypothesis
of experience. Skill and application,
such influential powers, must live on
with the soul that applied and gave
birth to soul-radiating forces of beauty
and good.
Our friend the student, teacher and
friend of music and musicians, who
admired and cultivated the best, and
who has left n rich inheritance behind
him, has given up his task here on
earth to grow into a more perfect
workman-There." E. ]. d.

All right L WILL" Ned responded,

look it."
But this news changes things"
Helen protested.
All right, but I should like to
run in and see you about this first.
You might not like me to talk be-
fore Warren - it's a business prop
osition, you know. How about
ernoon?"
Not this afternoon, Ned, I want
to see Warren and tell him first"
Very we'll, Mrs. Bluebeard.
Ned laughed, "II leave it to YOU.
III make it tomorrow if every
thing is all right Good-by."
Helen rang off and dropped into
a chair. Ned Burns engaged. or
about to be. Who would have be-
lieved it? OF course it would
change things, when she told War
rem about it. Helens thought flashed
across ker mind that Ned might
have just made it up in order to see
her, but she was too curious to hear
what he had to propose to allow
anything to stand in the way of
seeing him now.

Il wonder if you would be willing
to see me on a matter of business. "
tie letter had read, and Helen had
thought seriously of breaking her
word and answering it. For one thing
she was intensely curious. Ned Burns
had been the one romantic element
in her life, he had supplied that
emotional note that Warren thought
foolish and unnatural.
Helen had been forced to sacrifice
a great many of her ideas since her
marriage. Sic had been forced to
allow the illusions she had formed
to drift from her, or mold them
selves in accordance with what she
had chosen.
She was living conventional
married life-nine out of ten couples
live the same. The men are hustling
business men, glad to have a home
and willing to uphold it well, CRATE
full in sense for their well being,
and taking their wives for granted.
Men like Warren have no senti-
ment, they fight shy of it because
they had to be caught at q disad-
vantage. And Helen was one of the
women who crave things of this
kind. She fought against the prac-
tieal acceptance of a love like this
she wanted something more - and
she knew that it was useless to eX-
pect it.
Since Ned Burns had spoken last
summer Helen had not seen him.
Helen did not care for Ned, in fact
he meant nothing at all to her in
the one sence that mattered, but
she liked him, and the fact that he
Aeally. valued her and wanted her
enough to make it known fiat
tered her, as it would any woman
Her thoughts often drifted toward
him, and it was with a sense of
power that she read his letter and
wondered what he wanted.
She knew that she ought to leave
the letter entirely unanswered or
else write a dignified note, telling
him that it would be impossible to
see him. But her curiosity was
rampant. Ned had said on a mat
ter of business; what could it be-?
Could size see him without arous-
ing Warren's suspicious and hurt
ing her own sense of pride? No;
judging the matter from every
viewpoint it would be very unwise
and she would do wrong to attempt
it at all.
Having decided finally, Helen de-
termined to Danish the matter from
her thoughts, but it kept obtruding
itself again and again. Finally,
Just as she was about to compro-
mise with herself she was called to
the telephone, and much to her sur
prise found Ned at the otLer end of
the wire.
Ned Calls Up
Hello, Helen," came his voice,
cool and even. Helen thought it
best to follow his cue, and she an
swered him in the same friendly
fashion.
81 suppose you received my let
ter?" Ned responded.
Yes, and l was awfully surprised.
You know, Ned, that under no con-
ditions would it be possible for you
to come here. I am really amazed
that you would write to me at ALL"
why, Helen, you're too broad to
allow a thing like last summer to
stand in your own light. / have
forgotten all about it. BY the way,
I Lave some news for you, or shall
have very soon. 1 am about to be-
come engaged"
why, Ned!" Helen exclaimed.
BY rights she should have been glad
and she was in a sense for it solved
the problem that had been worrying
her. but there was something else

Forbes looked at Sanford for mo-

Il think you are the one to do a lit
tie explaining. A lot of mysterious
things have been going on around this

Jack answered. The old man will

you start anything I'll tell him you

Jack turned and called to the

But Jack got between him and the

There is no more fashionable gown
than the one that gives the redingote
effect. This one consists of plain bodice
to which the circular tunic is attached
and two-piece skirt that is worn be-
meath. Here, the two-piece skirt is
joined to a plain belt but in the small
view it is shown with fancy pockets that
are good for other uses. The tunic is
made cf broadcloth and the skirt is made
of velvet and the combination is ex-
ceedingly smart. For economy, the
upper part of the skirt, at the back and
sides, is cut from lining material.
For the medium size the bodice with
tunic will require, AZ yards of material
SO inches wide, 4A yards "a, yards 81
with "a yard of velvet. For the skirt
will be needed, 4H yards SO, 31s yards

TRY TO EXTEND
MILITARY SERVICE

WASHINGTON, Jan. "A state
wide, nation wide campaign for COM
pulsory military service is now under
way, thanks to the Vaccinations of
the National Security league, one OF
the most powerful and richest of the
propaganda organizations for mill
tarism. Bills have been framed by
the cenratl headquarters and will be
introduced this winter in every state
in the union. At the same time
moves are under way to force the
same kind of legislation through
congress.
This infOr |: ton comes from a
"confidentiar' bulletin of the National
Security league. Parts of this bulle-
tin, which have fallen into the hands
of your correspondent, are. as fol-
lows:
Several important recommends
tons on physical and military train
ing in the schools of the United
States, recommendatit ms Of the
adoption of system of universal
military training under federal con-
trol based upon a proper modifica-
ton of the Swiss. and Australian sys-
TENS, and for committee to ar
range with Senator Chamberlain for
hearing on his universal military
training bill in the early part of the
next session of congress, have been
prepared for the consideration of
the executive committee of the Ma
tional Security league. It is pointed
out in these recommendations that,
as legislation for physical and mill
tary training in the schools is purely
state matter, legislation to this
end can be secured only through
state legislatures, and therefore it is
suggested that committee be ap-
pointed to frame bill for such
training which should be. introduced
in each Of the forty-one legislatures
which meet this month. Senator
Chamberlain has been asked to adj
wise the league as to his program for
the next session; whether he intends
to press his measure, and what, in
his opinion, are its chances for con-
sideration. It is also recommended
that a. committee be appointed to
consider the advisab ility of introduce
ing in Congress at the next session a
bill providing for a referendum vote
on the subject of universal military
training at the election which occurs
two years hence for members of con-
gress; and also another committee to
prepare a report on the defects in the
national defense act and that every
effort be made to secure the amend
ment of this measure at the next ses-
sion of congress-.
