Mrs. Rice prepared for the Music
Study club a very delightful pro-
gramme. Her performers were greeted
by a large attentive and appreciative
audience. One could feel spirit of
satisfaction, since we were fully repaid
for giving our time to music study. The
programme was unusual in being given
by trio of our youngest members.
Miss Emma Ried Mitchell sang a group
of songs by Lang and ore by Brans
comb. There are possibilities in Miss
Mitchells voice-mellow and yet lyric.
Her work was very pleasing in DAY
Is Gone" Miss Lillian Karpeles, in
her calm and undistnrbed manner,
knew what she wanted when she went
to the piano. Her work was good. She
adjusted herself to the variety of her
numbers the dainty valse and the pro-
nounced weighty Gavotte. Miss sue
EleanorNAllen sang four numbers. From
the catchy Golden Fish, by BarhGxr,
to the appealing Sweet O. the Year"
by Salter, her voice was clear in it's
good enunciation and sweet in tone
quality. The song My Menagerie" by
Fay Foster must have been written as
a vehicle for the thrilling accompani-
q
picture of a circus. Misses Mitchell
and Allen sang two soprano duets by
Mrs. Beach The voices of these young
ladies are not unlike consequently they,
made a good singing team. Their work
was especially appealing in sea Song"
There Can never be enough said in
appreciation of our accompanies. They
are always the power behind the
| throne and today Mrs. G. H. Davis and
Mrs. William Gussen proved their abil-
ity of musical power.
Mrs. Charles A. Brown read a most
excellent paper, American Women
Composers" She said the question has
been asked, Will America ever produce
among it's women a great Mozart? That
from the fact of our youth and the I'M
avoidable foreign coloring no American
has struck the note of mastership ex-
cept Mcdowell. Mrs. Brown gave most
interestingly the beautiful story of the
life of Mrs. Beach.
AS music lovers we are proud of our
American women composers
woman Whose form and whose soul
Are the spell and the light of each path
We pursue;
Whether sunn'd in the tropic or chilled
at the pole,
If woman be there, there is music, too.

"What you thinkin' about, puddin, ?"
asked Andrew. noticing that Imogene was
in a brown study.
OH she exclaimed, smiling up at
him. 81 just happened to be thinking
about that counterfeit half dollar you
gave me last might
1T was such perfect coin that l was
thinking how much work the man had
done who made the mold for it, and
how much artistic ability he had dis
played, and from that my mind ran on
to wondering why people will persist in,
being dishonest
THE man who made that coin had
devoted the same amount of time and
energy to some legitimate work it would
have paid him much better.
al know a Mrs. Andrews who cheated
in five hundred club 1 belonged to once.
She used to always put the joker on the
bottom of the deck and then deal without
the cards to be cut, and, of
course. she always got the joker on her
own DEAL but there rs not woman in
that club who will speak to her now be-
cause she is dishonest.
Dishonesty not only does not pay, but
simply do not understand how a per-
son can cheat even if it did pay.
IT have always wondered if there wasn't
something wrong with the upbrnging OF
that kind of people; if their parents were
not nice; if they did not lack the proper
in their youth as to what
was small and mean and little in this
world.
Il tell you, Andrew. we folks who were
born in nice families have much to be
for. We had the advantage of
having the accident of birth fall lucky
for us.
at is just possible that if had had the
training that this Mrs Andrews had,
might have been dishonest too.
Gust think of yourself, for example.
