with Chairman w. w. Hammond of the
Housing Committee at the Chamber of
Commerce rooms shortly before noon

Which they have been asked to conduct,
they were unanimous in their belief that
it was impracticable. at the present
time, when the parents of pupils in all
parts of the city are SO busily concerned
with the functions attendant ON com
mencement and the closing of the
schools. They promised, however, to.
assist the committee at later date in
case their services should be necessary
in completing the survey in exclusively

action taken by the Parent Teacher

nounced this afternoon that the desired
data would probably be secured through

AN ALL-ROUND SUCCESS.
Excellent Music by Howard Sershon
and Paul DAWN and an Unusual
Menu Feature Dollar-Dinner

Ii square meal can be called an
all-round success, that is the most
truthful comment to be made on the
Sunday evening Dollar Dinner at the
Elks Home. In the first place the menu
was par-excellent. This was most adj
mirably supplemented BY equally good
music by the usual orchestra with extra
numbers by Howard Ssrshon and Paul
S. DAWN. The former displayed his
usual class in his renditions Of
\" When Irish Eyes Are Smiling and
30 Rome. The latter was so favor
ably received as to compel an encore
for which Mr.. Sershon sang The Little
Grey Home in the West. Mr..
DAWN s numbers included exquisite in
terpretations of Little Mother Of
Mine" and Mother Machree. The
dinner was most delightful in every
way and so chalked up one more sue
cess to the credit of the management
of the club.

At st. Peters.
MUSICALE THIS AFTERNOON
Varied Offerings Are Interpreted With

Tomorrow.


Commencement exercises at Kemper
Hall are proceeding with fnesse and
impressiveness Characteristic of all the
functions sponsored by that institution
On Sunday baccalaureate services
we're held in st. Peter Is Chapel The
Usual rituahstic services, made unusual
BY special Ascension Day hymns, pre-
seded a timely and inspiring sermon by
he Rev. 9. r. Mccoy, rector Of st.
Matthew Is Episcopal Church.
The minister based his address on
that passage Of scripture which says:
Ye also shall bear witness because
ge have been with me from the
beginning.
He impressed the graduates with the
fact that their lives had fallen in
pleasant places; that they had been
corn of Christian parents who had sur
rounded them with an atmosphere of
luxury and loneliness; that they had
received choice religious training, not
only in their homes but also at KEN
per Hall, where the example of the
holy sisters should have inspired them
to lives of loyalty, lives of simplicity
and sacred industry.
No gift" he said however rare
Or splendid is truly valuable unless it is
1sed by the fortunate one who receives
It. Your gifts in life are legion. Their
value to you will depend upon the
sxtent TO which you use them in mis-
SONS of love and service y.
