 A the back of the room were two large sbamrocks and for a cen terpiece was vase of the earna- tions which gave their fragrance to the whole room. Around this were tiny flower pots of shamrocks.

Chopin and tho Children.

A chronicler of the life of Chopin, the great pianist, tells the following anecdote: On one occasion the pupils ln his fathers school, freed temporari- ly from the restraint of the elder Chopin, arranged to have some fun with their tutor. When the commotion was at its height Chopin entered and stE himself to quell 1t. He told the boys that if they would remain quiet he would play for them. He darkened the room and star: ed his improvisation, telling the skylarkers romantic story of Il band of robbers who approached house, mounted by ladders to the win 6ows, but were frightened away by noise within. They fled into a dark wood, where they fell asleep under starry sky. Chopin by this time was playing more and more softly, as if seeking to lun the robbers in the wood and incidentally the children In the schoolroom to rest When he had sat lsfed himself that his hearers had ac- tually fallen asleep Chopin crept from the room and brought hS5 parents to look at them. He turned up the lights, and the boys slept on until he reseated himself at the plano and struck thrill ling chord, at which they all awakened with a start
