FINAL CONCERT.
Another Notable Program. Rem
dered / asst Night at New
Century Club.

The second concert of the Goodwin
Kafka Bowman trio at the New Century
club drew a somewhat larger attendance
last evening then the preceding one.
Rudolf Kafka again showed his vir-
tuosity by brilliant renderings of such show
pieces as the Corelli variations, La Folia,
and the Witches Dance" of Poganini, and
in another genre, the kresisler Rondno
on a Beethoven theme.
Miss Nellie Bowman's piano numbers
included two Moskowski selections, the
"Barcarole in G." and "fhe Juggleress, =
and she played, as an extra number the
Leschetizky arrangement of an operate
theme for left hand alone, with much
success.
Wilmot Goodwin's numbers showed
again the wide range of his repertoire. He
is at his best in the robuster songs, like
the "Shipmates of Mine by Sanderson,
which he perhaps substituted IN the pro-
gram on account of the success of the
Friend O'Mine," by the same composer
at the previous concert. He is also doing
good work in making known to the present
generation, SO largely fed up" on modern
mushy music, the more meritorious songs
and arias of earlier composers, introducing
one or more such selections in each pro-
gram.
Had this series been given earlier in the
season, it would have attracted more
attention and patronage, no doubt.

BANK CHECKING TAX
BRINGS A SURPRISE
Notice Recently Given Out Of Ser

While results are not as vet fully COM
piled II ~ estimated tha. he nine banking
institutions comprising the local clearing
houss have suffered the loss OF at least
$500. and possibly 5000, deposit ac-

early last month, that "A service charge OF

The notification was circulated by the

URGES DIRECTION
FOR CHILDREN
Rotarian Speaker Emphasizes the
Need of Offspring Being Shown
What to Do.

John polph, prominent Rotarian Of
Washington, ID. O., WAS the speaker for
ladies night at the meeting of the Rotary
Club in st. Andrews parish house last
night.
His address WAS on the great possibilities
to benefit society by helping young child
rem. He SAID the idens along which the
young people are now reared must be rev.
olutionized. Development must be made
along positive lines rather thnn negative
lines. More is accomplished IN showing -
boy or girl what should be done than in
what should not be done
Development should bc along the lines
of Knowing, feeling, and Wiling" Such
development is obtained better by taking
children III groups rather than as indivIdu-
ais Thus, the school, the church, the boy
scout troop, and like organizations are the
means Of developing better society.
Public health Is another factor which
enters INTO the question, MIR. Dolph said.
One has as much right to steal "a he has
to be sick The thief has neglected his
education, the sick man has neglected his
habits of living. II everybody would take u
few simple exercises daily, sickness would
be uncommon indeed, he said. do what
the scouts do, and we'll put the doctors
out of business" declared the speaker.
Correct habits of health, taught to the
boy, give to the man Of later years the
moral fibre to do right. When these habits
have been instilled in our future men and
women society will be uplifted. The
problem is not simple one, said Mr..
Dolph, ''if it was some of us would have
made more progress Give the boy ability
and reliability will follow.
He called on the Kotarians 60 act on
the idea and not spend their time in
thinking of It, Ho said those who did take
an active interest in the subject would
find tn msclves benefited both mentally
and physically.
Previous to Mr.. Dolph 's address Fred
Blatz spoke on the action of the club IN
sending worthy boys to scout camps this
summer. He also said plans are being made
for a Rotary picnic in July. Songs and re-
freshments added to tho pleasure of the
program.

ALFRED |. DU POINT
SELLS MORNING NEWS
Paper Bought by a Local Syndi-
cate Headed by Robert
II. Richards.

The Morning News today contained
the following editorial announcement:
Announcement is made of n change
in the control of this newspaper. MIR.
Alfred |. du Pont, who formerly owned all
but few shares Of the stock of the News
Publishing Company, the owner of the
paper, has sold his entire holding TO a
syndicate headed by Robert II. Richards.
This syndicate has also bought the few
shares that were not owned by MIR. du
pont and is therefore the owner Of all
the shares of the company.
The paper Will continue TO be Republi-
can IN politics, but will not bo the political
organ of any individual or Of any faction,
nor will il be used as a political weapon
against any individual.
In declaring general adherence to the
principles and policies of the Republican
party, IT may be understood that the right
is reserved to freely criticisc any measures
supported by that party that do not seem
calculated TO further the common good
and above all to maintain mvIolate the
fundamental principles upon which our
government was founded and which were
Csrvstalllzed by lis founders into the Con-
stitution of the United States. There
is no duty resting so GENEROUSLY upon
Americans today as that of preserving,
unshaken and uncorroded, our govern
mental institutions.
The right is also reserved Of criticising
public officials, regardless Of their party
affiliation, who are derellct In the per-
formanoe Of their public duties, and can
didates for office who are asking the con-
fidence and support of the people.
The people have right to have their
business conducted as economically and
efficiently as the best managed business
enterprises and it will be one of the aims of
this paper to point out, from time to time,
how this right can be best secured.

In ad- dition, she is harrassed by mer- cenary aunt who is trying to arrange a money match with a wealthy but undesirable suitor.
 Running away from the scenes of her unpleasant experiences, she meets, in d different city and under the oldest circumstances TO- nance, at last, and promptly forgets all the disagreeableness of the past
 William P. E. Earle directed the production. and highly competent cast, including Matt Moore as lead .ng man. interprets the various roles.
