The pathos and the beauty and the
charm that is Belgium was brought
very close TO US all on Thursday night
when Ysaye, the famous Belgian Vlo-
linist: his son Gabriel, just back from
service in the trenches. and NUMBER
of other gifted musicians gave pro-
gram at the Auditorium, Chicago, Tor
the war charities of the Queen OF the
Beleians, and with the Navy League OF
Chicago-that efficient and industrious
band of women-as sponsor.
The parterre was never more brlitiant
and numerous dinner parties in private
homes and in the Blackstone's crystal
ballroom were given by box hostesses
preceding the concert. Close to Slu,ouu
was earned from the entertainment.
The quaint gifts of the Belgian school
children-the cotton sacks which once
contained -four sent to Belgium by the
Chicago relief committee in the winter
of 1914 and embroidered by these chill
dren and returned as an expression OF
their gratitude-were much admired.
One of the most ornate was the work
of little refugee who had embroidered
the Belgian and American flags in the
center of the flour sack. with recon

was also richly embellished with en-
broideries by another child who had
intertwined the two flags, and a most
appealing expression of gratitude to his
American benefactors had been out
lined in red cotton.
These odd testimonials to Belgian's
gratitude for Americas help have been
framed and were exhibited in the foyer
of the Auditorium. 1t Is Mrs. William
