Miss Kemper is a Real Artist.

The concert in the college auditor
itim last Monday night by the charm
ing young vpliniste, Miss Ruth Kem-
per, was very delightful one. We
are proud of the fact that so talent
ed an artist is native West Virginian
We suspect that there will be reason
to be still more proud, for she will
undoubtedly make a name for her
self as a great performer on the vio-
lin. ~ there shall be any crowned
heads left in the world Miss Kemper
is unquestionably qualified to o ay be-
fore them. Her programme Monday
evening included the best selections
from composers like Handel, Mendels-
sohn, Grieg, Chopin, Kreisler and
Wieniawski, as well as American num-
bers by Gardner, Huss, Kramer,
Stoessel and others. Miss Kemper is
vigorous and graceful performer,
thoroughly in love with her art, earnest
but simple in her playing, with natur.
a. talent properly developed BY the
right sort OF training. The one criti-
cism Of her programme is that while
IT was brilliant it perhaps lacked
warmth. Naturally in a mixed audi.
ence there is but small proportion OF
those who prefer technique and whp ad
mlre the intricasies of show pieces.
we confess to weakness for the mel
odles that appeal to the heart, and We
think that this skillful artist will not
err IL in the arranging of her pro-
gramme She recognizes this sentiment.
we are hoping that Shepherdstown
VIII nave opportunity to hear her
again, for programme such as she
gives is real event in a town like
ours. Her accompanist, Miss Lucille
Davis, is all that can be desired. and
her part Of the programme was most
acceptable.
Miss Kemper was gracefully intro
duced by Mrs. W. H. S. White. and
after the performance Mrs. White
gave an impromptu reception at the
cottage 10 the two artists, which was
attended by members OF the college
faculty and others.

More Woodland to Be Cut.

Two more fine pieces of timber in this
neighborhood will fall before the lum-
berman's axe. DR.. and Mrs. C. w.
Banks have sold 10 the Miller Lumber
Company, which has been operating in
this county for some years past, the
two tracts of woodland, on what was
DR.. Tanners home farm. south of
town, and the Waugh farm, near Duff
fields. Each tract contains about
eighteen acres. The timber on the
first-named place lies along the road
leading to Shenandoah Junction, across
from the Morgan's Grove fair land at
the bend OF the road. The Waugh
tract is beautiful piece OF woodland
on the Duffields road. We regret to
see the timber slowly but surely dis
appearing from our county, for il
changes ;ne landscape and not for the
better. But The timber reaches its
prime and If il is not utilized il is
OF course loss TO the owner, and the
economic thing is TO cut it before il
loses through decay The Waugh
tract will be cut first and work will be
started there IT once.

Miss Jennie Smith in Town.

Miss Jennie Smith, the famous
worker among the employees OF the
b. q 0. Railroad and active In good
works generally, Is in Shepherdstown
this week upon the invitation Of Rey.
Jno. A. Crose and Is conducting ser
vices each night in the Methodist
Church. She will be here next week
also, IL her work shall prosper. Miss
Jennie Is well-known in West Virginia
and adjoining States for her interest in
every good cause for the uplifting Of
the people. Some forty years ago she
took up Christian work among the D.
" .. Railroad men, and our old rec
pie will remember the great picnics and
reunions that were held at Island Park,
ffarper's Ferry. Miss Jennie's big
heart has always overflowed with love
for her fel pw creatures and her lite
has been spent in doing good. She
has not only looked after the moral
and spiritual welfare OF those in whom
she has been so devoted'y interested,
but she has been helpful in other ways.
Her unselfsh love and kindness has
not been without its reward, for in
giving much she has received much,
and she has the satisfaction Of know
ing that she has helped hundreds To
live better lives. Indeed, the men of
two generations have felt her good in
;duence, and il is no wonder that she
has been 50 genuinely respected and
admired by those who have come in
contact with her. Although she is
advancing in years, time has treated
her gently, and she is still full OF
LIE and vigor and is just as earnest
in her desire to do good as ever. She
/ Is won.erful character, and rich and
poor and high and low pay tribute to
her noble and unselhsh life. We are
glad she is giving some of her time
to Shepherdstown and hope that her
Efforts here will be crowned with sus-
cess. =

The ladies Of the town and vicinity
will hold dinner next Thursday
thanksgiving day, in the community
building, formerly known as the fire
mems hall, the hope being to have a
heating plant installed, provide proper
seating, and paint it and adorn ii SO
as to make comfortable and convenient
place for town meetings and enter
tainments. This is not a project OF
the Woman's Club but is an enter
prise in which everybody in the COM
munity should be interested. II is
therefore hoped that all the people will
contribute liberaly Of articles needed
for the dinner and that the dinner it,
self will be literally patronized. II
has been found practically impossible
to provide turkeys for the dinner, as
had been intended, but a very excel
lent menu has been provided neverth-
less-chicken, lamb, ham, vegetables
and all that goes to make up a good
substantial meal. The pric, has been
fixed at 60 cents and children under
fourteen years IS cents. Private tables
for families or groups will be reserved
for dollar extra il request Is made
to Mrs. Vim. B. Snyder. Dinner will
be served beginning at IL o'clock. The
committee will be glad IL persons will
give notice Of their intention to take
dinner at the hell as soon as convenient,
so that il may have some idea of the
number OF guests to prepare for.
Notify Mrs. Snyder or Mrs. II. M.
Banks.
Let everybody help this good cause.
The price is very modest and the pub
lie dinner will be pleasant function.
