When Alma Gluck makes her sec
ond visit to Harrisburg on Tuesday
evening. April .. no doubt
Ina she will be greeted by an
Gluck audience such as Chestnut
Recital Street Hall has only held
on the occasion of great
patriotic demonstrations.
This welcome, though naturally
TO the great primo donna. will not
nothing else. Though it is barely
nine years since the young Rumani-
an american first made her success
ful debut at the Metropolitan Opera
House, New York. so firmly has she
entrenehed herself in the hearts of the
music-loving public. that such great
auditoriums as. the Hippodrome and
Carnegie Hall, New York; Orchestra
Hall, Chicago; Symphony Hall. Bos-
ton. and the Academy of Music. Phila-
delphia, have been packed with seats
on the stage. at each Gluck recital in
the pas. three years.
What is the secret of such audi
ences? voice that has we'll been
called golden and a personality as
compelling as her voice.
1t is that personality. the gracious
charm of the woman which dominates
her art, that should take everyone
who only knows Alma Gluck through
her records to Chestnut Street Hall
next Tuesday evening. When it is
considered that over 1000, 900 Giuck
records were sold last year, the popu-
larity of this unrivalled young So
prano needs no further comment.
With Madame Gluck will appear
Salvatore De stefano, the Italian
harpist. who in the past few years
has become very we'll known and has
proved himself an artist of great
ability on an instrument that knows
few masters. His part in the Gluck
concert is eagerly anticipated.

WINTER BEAUTY.

In the midst of the absorbing war interests
it is a relief to turn aside once in while and
survey our civic problems At present the first
matter to attract our attention,-physically and
financially and perhaps, artistically,--is the
promised decoration along King Street which we
shall enjoy this winter, afforded by the stacks
OF brick which are TO rest on the sidewalks and
in the parllways until spring brings relief.
Winter will soon be here, and with it, doubtless,
will come our share of snow and ice. We look
forward with pleasure to the cubist dsarrange-
ment Of the landscape along King Street then.
Instead of the unbroken expanses Of snow and ice
we shall have walls of it, broken into relief here
and there. We are even inclined to overlook the
bending effects of these bricks on the pave
ments there, helped on by the freezing and I'M
freezing processes. We almost envy the pros
pective pleasure with which the residents there
will pass the winter looking out against the
walls-an entirely new experience-instead Of
to the streets.
However, 1t IS war time, and under the cir
cumstances everything goes. We might have
saved few dollars by stacking them where they
would not have had to be hauled while present
high prices PREVAIL and we might have saved
few dollars in repairs to sidewalks /; but that is
neither here nor there. The unusual winter
beauty will more than repay us for our outlay.

SAYS DAVIS SHOWS
|. LACK Of SYMPATHY
WINCHESTER STAR ACCUSES
VIRGINIA GOVERNOR OF GRAVE
CRIME.

In front page editorial in last
evenings edition of the Winchester
Star, Governor Davis. of Virginia. is
accused of showing a lack of sympathy
with the efforts of this country IL
maintaining the war
The Star says as follows:
The passive attitude of Governor
Davis towards the prosecution OF the
war against Germany has given great
distress to all patriotic Virginians.
Not only has the Governor refrained
from taking the lead in patriotic ac-
tivities Of the state and nation, in
keeping with The glorious traditions of
Virginia ard furnishing the inspira-
tion and encouragement by his eX-
ample which is expected from the chief
executive, but il at least tive instances
he has concretely demonstrated his
lack of sympathy with the war Efforts
OF the United States"
The governor, according to the Star,
last fall defeated a resolution intro
duced at a meeting of the Virginia
Democratic Committee which would
have endorsed the record OF President
Wilson and approving his declaration
of war. The paper also charges that
the governor gave public notice last
winter that he would veto any appro
priation for the State Council of De
Tense, even after q personal appeal
had been made to him by Secretary
Baker, who stated that he considered
the establishment of this council vital
10 the nationwide scheme Of war pre-
parationg,
The Star also added 10 its editorial
that it appreciates the gravity Of the
statements it had made regarding the
governor of Virginia while the nation
is at war.

NEUTRALITY IMPOSSIBLE.

Our neighbor, the Winchester STAR yesterday
afternoon preferred charges before the tribunal
of public opinion against Governor Davis, of
Virginia on the ground that he had failed to
support with any enthusiasm Americas war eff
forts. The Star insists that it is conscious of
the gravity of the charges which it makes; and
we may ssume, therefore, that its pronounce
ments have been carefully weighed.
1t will be forever impossible to remove entire
ly the stain which the charges make on the pub
lie and private character of Governor Davis
Even though there be not enough evidence to
convince the public that he has been systemat-
ically opposed to the Governments program, the
accusation thus publicly made will never be for
gotten. Once uttered, it is beyond recall.
Serious the charge is beyond measure. Amer
ica's national ambition for the past year has been
the prosecution Of the war, and to the success
Of that her citizens have given ever increasingly
of their money and their time and without limit
have given their moral support The charges
against Governor Davis involve more than the
simple claim that he, as an individual, has not
been vigorously back of the war they make him
stand out as an opponent Of the peoples wishes
in this national concern
Even lukewarmness in war matters is not to
~ tolerated during these times. Americas ev-
cry interest is being made to contribute towards
the general backing for the war effort The man.
be his office private public, who does not feel
compelled to do everything in his power to as
sist III the prosecution Of the war lacks some es-
sential of American spirit. In such condition
he is quite properly placed in the position where
aeis criticized and suspected It Is inthese straits
that Governor Davis finds himself today.

RED CROSS WORK.

The annual report of the War Council Of the
Red Cross submitted today to representatives of
the 1854 chapters in the United States, and pub
lished in another column makes interesting, alb
sorbing reading; and we urge our readers to give
it careful reading It deals in stupendous
amounts in hundreds of millions of dollars, in
million of members, in hundreds of millions of
articles produced, and in thousands of active
workers. The figures are, in themselves, sufi-
GENTLY big to command the attention of the peo-
pie; but they are all the more significant when
one remembers that they tell the story Of an or
ganization whose origin was in philanthrophy,
whose service has been maintained by free gifts
of time and money to the cause and chat it is
histcry's grandest testimonial to the basic i'm
pulses which bind the world together
It is the story Of the response of the Ameri-
can heart to hunanitys needs. It's characters
include practically every person in the United
States, for there are very few Individuals in this
land who have not given Of their means and of
their time to the work of the Red Cross. The
pride which Americans may properly take in the
achievements may certainly rank with the sat
isfaction which those same Americans derive
from the consciousness that their participation
in the present war has been for altruistic pur-
poses. Through the Red Cross America has
poured out 1926, 900 for the relief of suffer
ing humanity,-not her own men alone, but fol
all humanity which the organization is able to
touch. Through American military effort de-
mocracy and liberty for humanity have found
vigorous champion. The records in both in
stances are unequaed.

On the other hand it must give West Virgnians

with which their Governor has entered into the
