Peru Normal Notes


The annual concert of the Girls
Glee club was given in a crowded
auditorium Wednesday evening, Jan.
%. Nine numbers embracing a
wide range of theme and treatment,
were sung by the club of Is voices.
Solo numbers were given by Miss
Wing and Miss Collins, pianists,
Miss Florence Hapke, soprano and
Miss Helen Donovan, contralto. The
singing of the club was marked by
a precision, a mellowness of tone
and delicacy of phrasing, which re-
fleet praise upon the conductor,
DR.. Homer c. House.
The "Hippodrome," put on by the
Y. w. c. A. last Saturday evening in
the T. ]. Majors building. was hi
larious success. "Flu" precautions
have debarred much social activity
heretofore, but the crowd of stud
ents, faculty and townspeople.
(many of them in costume), let the
world know that they were out to
make up for lost time. The various
nickel side-shows were crowded all
evening. But the ten-cent orpheum
performances of three turns" was
the center of attraction, clearing
over $50. At the end of the evening
a prize was awarded to the most
cleverly eostumed group on the floor.
The receipts were over Sl25.

Silk Curtains, Furniture
and Rare Old Bed Spread
Added to Collection

Hundreds of housekeepers are
breathlessly waiting for the opening
of the White Elephant sale Thurs
day for they know, from past expe-
rience, that wonderful bargains will
be offered.
Mrs. Ward Burgess has given FIVE
pairs of pink brocade window cur
tains and two portieres to match
which will be sold in a set. These
were very costly and are in a new,
clean condition. Mrs. Burgess has
decided to do one room over in a
different color which gives some
thrifty housekeeper an opportunity
to purchase these silk curtains fol
her home.
A large mahogany table with 10
chairs to match has been given to
the furniture booth and are in
splendid condition. There is no
doubt that some business-like house,
keeper will take advantage of this
rare opportunity to refurnish her
dining room.
The knitted bed spread, made by
Mrs. S. B. Shotboit, an English
woman, is exciting great curiosity.
Mrs. Shotbolts name and the year
1912 are knitted in the center Of the
spread.
Friday night there will be dancing
and Saturday night the auction sale
takes place.

When a good hard working coun-

boys attention. Their dear mother

the reason why.

Without Prejudice.
Tekamah, Neb., Dear Miss Fair

become actively interested in this
question of the right or wrong of
feminine pride? For of course it is
pride that makes one, whether male
or female, wish to look ones best.
There lives a man in our neigh
borhood and none who know him
will say he is not good man, who
does not like to see his wife looking
pale.
She is not an invalid, but with no
natural color on her cheeks and her
prettily curved lips pale pink she
does not look attractive and she is
conscious of it.
I have heard her husband exclai1n
approvingly when the little pink puff
had left a glow on the pallor Of her
face and whether that glow was re-
Elected in her eyes or they Just
sparkled because he was pleased

That was just one woman's one
reason for using artificial color. Just
pitiful effort to make the most of
the material God gave her. She
wasn't trying to improve on his
work. Through some fault which
perhaps she did not know or could
not help, the bright coloring was
lost. and who shall say she should be
jcensured for this pitiful attempt ut
restoring 1t to please the king of her

Wants to Be a Movie Star.

Ravenna, Neb.-DeaF Miss Fair
fax, Omaha Bee: have never writ
ten to you before, but am constant
reader of your advice to the Love-
lorn," so am coming to you for adj
vice. Does a person wishing to be-
come a movie star have to go on the
stage first? If any movie star would
happen to read this I wish she
would write me personally. Please
give me as much advice as possible,
or please refer me to some one to
whom I may write for this informa-
ton. Hoping to see this in the Daily
Bee, thank you. BLUE EYES.
Take my advice and abandon your
idea Of becoming a movie star.
There are many offs" in the way,
and then, if you finally did secure
position, there is only one chance
in a thousand that you would win
fame or money. The high salaries
reported as being paid to movie stars
are greatly exaggerated and it is
only through dint of the hardest,
most nerve racking labor that they
hold their positions in the movie
world.
