Bedtime Stories

An Unpleasant Surprise

Gossping is bad habit. 1t GER
tainly is bad habit. 1t is very apt to
get one into difficulties. Peter Rabbit
says so, and Peter knows. But some
how Peter can't get over the habit. It's
his curiosity. Peter is so full Of Gu
riosity that he is forever getting into
trouble trying to satisfy it.
When Peter found Johnny Chuck
way down on the Green Meadows on
the edge of what later in the spring
would be Farmer Browns cornfeld he
had to stop to gossip, and when he
found that Johnny Chuck actually was
looking for place for new home
Peters curiosity became so great that
he quite forgot everything else. He
forgot to watch out for danger, and
that is something that none of the lit
tie people of the Green Forest and the
Green Meadows ever can afford to for
get. Peter was full of questions, some
Of which Johnny Chuck answered and
some of which he did not answer. So
they sat there and gossiped, and both
were needless and careless.
Suddenly they were Interrupted by a
sound that sent little shivers chasing

Ohio Suffragists Carry
Fight to Supreme Court
Brief Calls for Reversal of State
Decision Denying Referen.
dunn Injunction

WASHINGTON, March 18.-The Ma
tional Woman's party to-day carried to
the Supreme Court its fight against a
referendum in Ohio on the national
woman suffrage amendment. The court
was. asked to reverse the action of the
Ohio Supreme Court in refusing to
grant an injunction against the ref
erendum sought by George S. Hawke,
of Cincinnati.
BY adopting the referendum amend
ment Ohio attempts to add another
ratifying body to that designated by
the Constitution of the United States"
the brief said, and "to limit the sub
Htantive power Of the Legislature by
requiring the consent of another body
to make effective the expressed con-
sent of the Legislature"
When the brief was prepared thirty
two states had ratified the suffrage
amendment, of which number, it said,
at least six states, including Ohio, have
constitutional referendum provisions.
"The right of women to vote prob
ably will be claimed at the coming
spring primaries or at the Presidential
election in November" the brief added.
IF when the right is claimed there are
still six states whose referendum pro-
visions make its existence doubtful, a
situation will arise in which great un-
certainty will exist as to matter of
grave national Importance"

Boston Symphony
Concert Is Given
Despite Strike
Places of 33 Players Who Are
Out Filled by Pensioners
and Excellent Program Is
Heard at Carnegie Hall

Despite the thirty-three strikers who
left the orchestra last week as the re-
suit of friction over the proposed
amortization of the famous organiza-
ton, the Boston Symphony Orchestra
showed it's fighting spirit in giving it's
concert at Carnegie Hall last evening.
Loyal members were determined to
carry out the plans for the trip. il
with only twenty men. But their
ranks, although smaller than usual.
were not reduced to such desperate
straits. The strikers places were filled
by pensioners, who gladly returned to
assist the orchestra in critical period
of its career. Other players, it is
said, were recruited from the New
England Conservatory of Music.
A novelty was to have been given
John Alden Carpenters "Concertino."
But under the circumstances it was, of
course, necessary to change the pro-
gram to one less elaborate. Conductor
Monteux chose his pieces shrewdly-
Beethoven's Fourth Symphony and five
Wagner numbers-the Prelude to "Lo-
hengrin," "'"A Siegfried 1dyll," "Forest
Murmurs" from "Siegfried." excerpts
from Act III of "The Mastersincers !"
Considering the difficulties under
which the orchestra has been laborinp
detailed criticism of the performance
would not be fair. but it may be said
in passing. that the strings were sur
prisingly effective in the numbers from
"Lohengrin" and "Siegfried."
