Men and women have shed tears
over Rudyard Kipling's famous
poem, Mother o. Mine" But it has
remained for E. F. Wilkinson, an
English soldier, to write dad O.

achieve the same popularity as that
accorded Kipling's masterpiece, dad

was waiting for orders to go over the

Passion-filled souls, Dad o. Mine.

ALL WILLING TO PAY FARES
Reason Why Citizens Of Lima, Peru,
Do Not Seek to Evade Their
Street Car Obligations.

If fare registers were 70 be placed
in the street cars of Lima. Peru. there
would be a loud protest This Is not
because 1t Is easier to dodge the con-
ductor under the prevailing system.
On the contrary. the travellers OF Lima
are willing. even anxious, to pay their
fares Perhaps that doesn't seem hu-
man. but the explanation is that upon
receipt of the fare numbered ticket
is presented to the passenger, and 1t
is a valuable lottery ticket.
The car lines are divided into four
sections for the monthly and semi
monthly drawings conducted by the
railway company. In the three impor-
tant sections a cash prize of $3.50 is
offered. The fourth section offers a
prize. of $50.

ARTISTS FAVOR PLAN
OF MEMORIAL ARCHES
:
Joseph Pencils Suggestion
for Commemorating Amer
ica's Part in War Discussed

The proposition that Americas part
in the war be commemorated by the con-
struction of national memorials along
the Lincoln Highway, advanced by
Joseph Pennell, is being made the sub
iect of interested discussion among
local artists today.
Mr.. Pennell made his suggestion at a
meeting of the Fellowship Of the Penn
sylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. The
artists of the country could unite and
make each bridge along the highway
n permanent tribute to the valor Of the
Americans who offered their lives in
France.
]. Mcclure Hamilton. president of
the Fellowship, is enthusiastic in his in
dorsement of the plan. The artists of
the country have already proved their
ability and the work they accomplished
during the war entities them to the
privilege of planning the memorial, he
said. Such a memorial, he explained,
would be both useful and artistic, and
would have the additional advantage of
being national in scope.
Miss Violet Oakley. one of the lead
ers in the local artists colony, said that
she had heard the recommendation and
that she was giving the matter her
earnest consideration. She preferred to
wait until she had studied the problem
before giving her opinion as to its
merits.
Others were not so reticent The sug-
gested memorial met with their approval
and they promised to give any plan
launched to further it their hearty sup
port.
In explaining his plan, Mr.. Pennell

Marcia Van Dresser Sang

The first Philadelphia presentation Of
Gated to Hans Kinder. was given yes
terday by Mr.. Kinder himself at the
Monday Musicale in the ballroom of the
Bellevue-Stratford. The concerto was
well arranged TO bring out Mr. Kindlers $
varied skill in strong richness of tone,
steady sustaining and rapid lingering.
De BuSsY's dainty Les CloChes" was
played with a soft deep tone that sound
ed almost like the singing voice. Other
numbers were three of Chopin's works,
arranged for the cello by Mr.. Kinder ;
the serendae by Saint-Saens, and "Papil-
Ions" by Pepper.
Miss Marcia Van Dresser. who sang
Italian. French and English songs,
charmed her audience first by her per-
sonality and attractive costume, and
then by her clear, full mezzo-soprano
voice. Her range is quite extensive, and
her low notes were sustained with such
power as to suggest a pure contralto
voice. Her high notes came out clear
and strong, and she interpreted all the
songs with great deal of expression.
The songs in English. May Night" and

I'VE Two Together" by Marshall Ker-

EMERGENCY aid WORK GROWS
Rummage Sale to Meet Increased
Demands for Assistance

Signing of the armistice has not les
sened the activities of the Emergency
Aid of Pennsylvania, according to a
statement made at the headquarters
1924 Chestnut street. Instead, the COM
mlttee of supplies is having a constant
increase in emergency calls. The raw
ages caused by the influenza epidemic
are given as the principal reason, and
It is pointed out that responsibility to
the soldiers who are returning and to
their families has not been reduced.
To meet the situation the ladies' OF
the Emergency Aid have arranged for a
rummage sale on December 13 and IA,
and request that used articles OF every
description be sent to 1924 Chestnut
street from now until the date OF the
sale.
