The agent spent three days last week
on the eastern side of the county, attend

attended, and good discussion of vari-
GUS subjects took place at both meetings.
On Friday several of the Orange coun-
ty Jersey breeders attended the :. field

ideal one for the event, and it was esti-
mated that 400 people were present The
farmers royalty entertained their visit
ors, serving them free basket lunches
at noon. In the forenoon there was an
inspection of the farm and stock, with a
tractor demonstration as a side line. For
the afternoon session, chairs were placed
in one of the large barn floors, and the
program of speakers was presented. Ev-
eryone agreed that the day was a big
treat for them, and those that went
long distance felt that they were more
than repaid for their efforts
On Saturday the Chelsea Board of
Trade held basket picnic on the north
ers' club was invited to unite with them.
A short prorram had been arranged for
the afternoon There were several speak
ers, those from out of town being Col.

this may be an annual event The
Wrights Mountain Farmers club held a
picnic on the same day. H. L. Bailey
and A. L. Gilbert, specialists on potatoes,
were present and spoke ON the raising Of
certified seed.

Aipling Pleads for
Reverence at " ar Graves
British Author Warns Public
Not to Visit Cemeteries as
Sightseeing Tour
Sightseeing Tour

LONDON. Dec 5.-Rudyard Kipling,
or behalf Of the Imperial War Graves
Comm ssion, has written an earnest ap-
peal to those visiting, or intending to
visit, the French and Flanders fronts
to observe reverence for the dead. In
part he writes:
at should be remembered this is
holy ground-consecra in every part
by the lives of men. and for that rea-
son not to be run over with levity 1t
is inevitable that the handling of such
mulctudes OF sightseers as are ex-
pected next year must be managed
along ordinary tourist lines, so it rests
with the individual tourist to have re-
spect for the spirit that lies upon that
land Of desolation and to walk through
it with reverence.
"lt is said there is a tendency on the
part of some visitors to forget this OBJ
legation. Nothing would be gained by
giving specific instances of what, after
all is more in the nature OF unuhink-
ing carclessness than Intentional disrc
spect, but Tie Imperial War Graves
Comm lssion has asked me to express
our earnest hope that all who visit the
battle areas will bear i'm mind that at
every step they are in the presence of
those dead through the merit of whose
sacrifice they enjoy their present life
and whatever measure of freedom is

gance as the carved and painted satin
wood harp (No. 111o) OF the period of
Louis XVI.
There are pictures and sculptures,
too, the latter, on the whole, more
persuasive than the former. Save for
the fns svirgin and the Child" by
Isenbrsnt, and one or two other works
from early schools, tho paintings are
not 1t all impressive. Among the sculp-
lures there are some remarkable Re-
naissance productions, notably the
poIychrome relief in stucco (No. 334)
and another Della Robbian piece (No.
333).
Architects will be interested in the
old marbles and in the Renaissance
mantelpiece {No. 342). But for the
amateur generally the Pares collection
will be memorable because of it's in
Vulnerable little things, its almost be-
wilderingly diversified character. 1t
illustrates one Of the best phases of
antiquarianism, the assembling Of
quaint, curious, beautiful and lovable
bits, relics not only Of art but Of the
era Is as those were practiced b. de-
voted artists.

Two Pianists Heard;
One Proves a Delight
Miss Olga Steeb Shows Real
Talent in Concert at
Aeolian Hall

Two more pianists appeared yester-
day at Aeolian Hall. The one who
played in the afternoon does not call
for any critical mention She was
Nine. Tamara Lubimova, and her pro
gram included numbers by Csuck,
Scarlatti, Daquin, Beethoven. Schumann
and others.
The evening pianist was Miss Olga
Steeb. d young Californian, who has
played with some success on the Pa
cihc Coast. She proved herself very
capable artist. sincere. possessed of an
excellent technique and a just taste.
Her style in the Bach -Busoni prelude
and figure in D major was a little
lacking in breadth, but her playing was
clear and we'll articulated.
Her most satisfactory work was
probably the Mozart "Pastorale Va
rice" Rameau's "Rigaudon" and Da-
quin's "Le Coucou.' These she gave
with charming fancy and color Miss
Steeb is, in short, pianist of distinct
charm, if somewhat limited range
She was sympathetically greeted by an
audience of excellent size.

ness in her. Yet to her fell the task
Of putting sunshine into the dreariest
of opera books that we ever saw.
There should have been several fun
makers in the opera, but there was
only one Mr.. Didur. though not to
the Italian manner born, was the only
one who showed any conception of the
butfo style. He was somewhat ponder
ously grotesque, but he was amusing
and wagged a surprisingly glib Italian
tongue So did Mr. Hackett, who, be-
sides. sang with nearer approach to
the demands of the Rossinian style of
song. His cavatina, in the first act
was indeed q delightful bit of vocalza-
+ion. His artistic companion, as has
been said. was Miss Sundelus. Signor
De Lucas cowning was not Of the
classic order, though he sang fairly

very amusing finale of what is the first
act in the score, but was the second in
