TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Since the teachers examination to
be held on January 16, II and IS, is a
combination of the Second Grade ex-
animation which should have been
held in October and the First Grade
and State examination, usually held
in February, | am pleased to say that,
it is the intention of the State Depart
ment to accept for credit at the com
ing examination, all grades which
would have been accepted at these
examinations, had they been held at
the usual times. Those writing for
Second Grade Certificates, therefore,
may submit grades from the April,
July and August examinations, while
those writing for First Grade or State
Certificates may submit grades from
the August examination only.
Respectfully submitted,

Gone. but not forgotten;
Just eight months ago dear william
Since you passed away to rest
Though gone you are not forgotten
BY the one you loved the best.
Though gone you are not forgotten
And your place can never be filled;
i will keep your memory cherished
Until my voice in death is stilled.
When 1 wander to the grave yard
Flowers to strew with tender care
On the grave OF my dear son.
Who Is sweetly resting there.
As the evening sun is setting,
Oftentimes | sit alone,
In my heart there comes a feeling
II william could come home.
'Tis hard to break the tender chord
When love has bound the heart:
'Tis hard, so hard, to speak the word
We must forever part.
We may not know why death should come
To take the dear one from our home
But though my eyes with tears be dim,
The Lord knows why I'll trust in Him
Loved in life. in death remembered

BOERSIANER'S
COM MENT ON
BUSINESS
BY BOERsIANER.

The gosips have heard what others
have known for some time: Federal
Bank authorities mean to exert theif
influence to force liquidation in cer-
tain industries speculatively over
committed and in land values-rural
and urban.
In real estate the effort will not be
easy of results. With building sus.
pended during four years-with office
space. precious and resident housing
a privelege-he must be a super-rigid
appraiser who would see blatant in
hation in city real estate. Still, there
are examples that must stun conser-
yatism. A fair-sized but tremendous
ly prosperous restaurant in Longacre
Square New York, was re-rented for
ten years at 100000 a year. Such q
lease is luminous of the prodigality
of the times.
Farms are also leased at what
would have been fabulous terms five
years ago; must necessarily be so
rented, considering the sale price of
fertile acres and the profits on the
products; profits vividly shown by
the Government crop report-s14,-
092, 14O 900 in 1919, against s12, ,6OO,-
$4,000 last year.
Nevertheless, the Federal authori-
ties are convinced these other lines
have been heavily over-traded, are
involving money in a dangerous VOL
ume and the attempt is making to
do there what has been done in the
stock market.
Mr.. Rogers of the Foreign Affairs
Committee, keenly disappointed the
many who are directly interested in
Mexican properties by his statement
that the Congress would not act on
the protest of twenty-five American
oil companies which had protested
against the Carranza bill passed by
the Senate the other day.
Possibly the Government will act
after the bill becomes a law, and
Mexican authorities will have demon
strated their purpose in adopting
the measure. When it is noted that
in the lower branch of the Mexican
congress the majority are Socialists
who sympathize more or less with
Soviet Russia, hint is had of what
the Carranza regime might attempt
to do.
The sympathy, however, Is not OBJ
jectively doctrinaire or idealistic; il
is rather selfish. IL not predatory
Socialism, as the Mexican under
stands it, Is that share in your neigh
boris prosperity by simply voting to
share it-not by cooperation in cre-
ating ii.
Senior Carranza has fostered this
grasping socialism by word and with
pen. 1t Is his chief political asset
Half educated or totally uneducated

Mexicans have become eager students

ANNA CASE DELIGHTS
AUDIENCE AT RECITAL
Willem Spool. as Accompanist,
Shares Honors With Attractive
Soprano.

Dainty Anna Case makes songs as
Charming as she is charming to look
upon herself. At the song recital of
this attractive soprano at the National
Thester yesterday afternoon, Miss
Case and willem Spool. her accom-
panist. were joint stars in giving the
musical beauty and the purest quail
ATTY of the art song. II was the third
Concert of the Ten Star Series pre-
scented by T. Arthur Smith. and an
appreciative audience that demanded
many encores filled the theater.
Anna Case is always winsome with
q human charm and refinement that
captures her audience. But today her
art seems to have gone higher, be-
come finer and more finished. Her
voice is limited in power. with some
thing of effort in the upper register
Ehat matter it?
Like q Cameo.
II Is like a cameo. She has taken
. small thing and made il gem In
curve and color and entire contour
bn tenderest musical cadence, in the
meaning conveyed through a delight
ful diction whether English. French.
italian or Swedish, and in the COM
poser's music message.
The program was delightful and
unhackneyed. OF novelties there were
two French songs of Chauvet that
were in the artists hands. ver1table
re-creations. The "Berceuse" with its
rare Russian character at the piano
was two-fold delineation.- The
singer gave some of the subtlest tone
pictures here and mood pictures as
well. with purity, beauty, and deep
\appeaL
Novelties were the old Norwegian
songs. the "Boatsong' given without
accompaniment and having gratifying
purity in intonation and at the close
a typical cadence rarely sung, and
the interesting "Westberga" with its
folk humor Then she made OF the
Nerini ''L1nsent aile" a little gem
of delicacy, Beethvoen's Faithful
Johnnie" was told in simplicity, mel
ody. and purest diction.
But IL you would smile with Anna
Case hear her old French song of the
loves of Jean. the Weckerlin. or her
encore song. Bon jour, ma BELLE" by
Behrend. A rare song was the Rain"
by Curran. given as encore, with its
patter of rain on the piano, rare in
creation for both artists.
Waltz Song Pleases.
The Romeo and Juliette waltz
song was daintily. exauisitely given
spirit Broadly sustained was the le-
cato atmospheric song of Ward
Stevens "in the Dawn of An Indian
sky" Rodenbeck's ITO You" had to
be repeated and Anna Cases own
gong was a bubblins song of spring,
of robins, and of joy IN music such as
Anna Casefsings from the very nature
OF her dainty self. Her other encores
were Loves at My Heart: by Wood
man: Robin, Sing Me a Song" by
Spross. and My Laddie."
To Willem Spool. newcomer to
Washington is due the notable inter-
pretations at the piano. He has
warmth of feeling. beauty of tone and
that requisite today. fine art in tone
picture to supplement the singer.
