MISS CASE SINGS ENGAGINGLY
AT HER ANNUAL FALL RECITAL
Young Artist Moves With Ease
and Confidence Through
List of Songs.

Miss Anna Case gave her annual fall
song recital last evening in Carnegie
Hail before an audience which plainly
adored her. Small blame TO any au
dience for that, for surely IL "a beautifu
maid is cheering sight TO see," then
good look at Miss Case ought to make
the whole world happy.
Also IL is pleasant to hear her sing.
1t is no news that she has a beau'lfu
voice, nor will any one be astonished at
reading that she sings with much charm.
sometimes with delightful fancy and no;
infrcqucntly with serious feeling.
She presented u very we'll arranged
programme last evening. II was not toe
wide in scope. 1t contained no songs
imposing too great tax on Miss Cases
dramatic powers nor TOO heavy q de-
nand upon her voice. But II embraced
lyrics merry and sad, sportive and re-
Elective, coquettish and melancholy
The young singer moved with ease anu
confidence through her list and evoked
frequent and hearty applause.
In some of her lighter numbers Miss
Case indulged in considerable facial
play. gesture and pose. Disciples of Mr.
kipling may shake their heads and say.
But is 1t art?" 1t may be confessed
that acting is out Of place in song re-
cltal; Dut neither MISS case nor any
other concert singer can be severely CEN
sured for yielding to an insistent public
demand which has grown up under the
influence of vitiating agencies not neces-
sary to mention.
Perhaps more regrettable was the fact
that too often Miss Cases tones were
somewhat pinched and that there were
few which Ito put it rnildly) were be-
side the pitch. But on the whole she
sang pleasingly and earned her laurels,
her chrysanthemums and autumn leaves.

TO CHOOSE SIMPLE CLOTHES
Women Who Foil Seek Garments and Footwear Within Means and
 Not Gaudy.

Those who work for their living must be most conservative in their choice of attire, no matter how Op- posed to conservatism their fancy may be, and in no part of it more than in the shoes they wear, says Vogue. Girls, whose poor feet, i'll supported on crooked pegs, bulge over the thin sole and wabble as they walk, should ask themselves what the man behind thinks of their bending ankles, or, if they have on laced boots (for a won der) of the strip of calf showing be low their ridiculously short skirts. AS for those who wear an evening slipper of black satin for daytime street trot- ting, probably no admonitiOn would have much effect upon them; one can only say it is atrOciously bad form.
 When they choose a dress of a con- spicuous kind, they should remember how long they may have to wear it, and consider how well it will stand the sort of work they have to do. Materials that tear easily, that soil easily, that shed beads, that catch scraps of embroidery in the chair arms and door handles, are not suitable. Very brilliant colors do not look busi- nesslike, and, holding the eye as they do, are things people notice too often and so grow tired of. To have taste for clothes out of the ordinary and to have to live the sort of life which de mands ordinary clothes is a condition in which many of us find ourselves. Only few hours out of the 24 can we blossom forth into the marvellous mod els our souls pant for. But we can be terribly smart in plain clothes if we really want to be- and considering that every fashion periodical publishes smart plain ones for smart plain occa- sions, as we'll as smart fine ones for smart fine occasions, it is distinctly our own bad taste that leads us to bounce determinedly upon the wrong ones for the wrong times.

RIBBON TRIMMINGS ARE NEW
Establishment Affords Attractive Hand Touch Worth Adding at
 Home to the Store Dress

Ribbon trimmings are rather new and an attractive hand touch worth adding at home to the store purchased dress. One very striking street dress of tan wool was trimmed with black cfre ribbon (formerly most used on millinery) one inch wide, that was splaited and laid on each side seam. The ribbon was arranged 50 that it narrowed down at the hem, and this made the silhouette slightly peg top
 Flower satin ribbons in Dresden colOrings are charming for binding both frocks and slipovers. A gray velours dress seen was solely trimmed around the square neck, short bell sleeves and the plain with blue and pink Dresden ribbon bound around to make a three-fOurths inch banding For the colOrful slipover or smock, an oriental patterned ribbon with gold, red and green designs on black. is up to date. A pocket, a neck lac ing, or to make narrow sash run through buttOnhOled slits at the waist line will give the desirable distinctive ness.

BRACELETS STILL IN FAVOR
Arm Decorations Are Often of Com- binations of Ivory and Tor
 toIse Shell.

Bracelets are still in high favor with the fashionably attired woman. Many are worn together, but they need not be of the same metal or enriched with similar jewels When two are used on one arm very often the combination of one ivory bracelet and one of tor tOise shell is noted.
 Another type of bracelet is that made of tiny pearl beads strung on a small chain. Such bracelets may be of great length, for they are wound around the arm a number of times and fastened at the wrist.
 Egyptian and oriental motifs are shown in the new neck chains. The pendants are limitations of the scarab, sometimes enriched with tiny coIored stones in fascinating color combna- tfons. The cOlored silk cords to which they are attached often match these stones.
 Cut crystal Is also much in request this season, Neck chains, pendants, bracelets and hatpins show most pleas ing use of the stones The hatpins are both large and small in shape.

THE PETITE ROBE
Parisian Garment Has Lost Noth-
 ing of It's Prestige.
TrfIe Less Diversified in styIe-Ad- heres Mostly to One Straight,
 Uncompromising Line.

The petite robe, that lOveliest of all Parisian achievements, has lost nothing of it's prestige during this spring sea son. It is, perhaps, trit1e less di- verSified in style than it once was, but, though it adheres mostly to one straight and uncompromising line, it is none the less developed in a thou sand different ways, each more perfect than before. In the subtleties of these developments there lies a deal of charm that seems impossible to imi tate.
 Most of the daytime dresses, if the collections are viewed as a whole, are made from very fine serge or from one of the many varieties of crepe de chine. More often the frocks of dark blue serge, for this is a material GN never-ending popularity with the Parisienne, are trimmed with some shade of red applied in more or less intricate ways. But with the blue goes the red almost as a matter of course.
 The combination of red and blue is used by Poiret many times over, and on most of his daytime frocks he is making a point of the longer skirt which reaches below the ankles.
 Doeillet shows an adaptation of the Brittany costumes, which has had all sorts of interested attention in Paris. It is the prettiest combination of blue serge with red trimmings. Another frock which appeared at the opening Of this maison was made up of two panels of red foulard, one at front and one at back, and each of these was embroidered in an all-over pattern with dark blue threads. The remain ing portions of the dress, that is, the full sides and sleeves, were of blue serge, to carry out this ever-prevalent style of red and blue
 In the same style one sees among the collection of Martial ct Armand red and blue dress called Marmouset. Madeleine ct Madeleine have a red and blue frock, very simple and chaste in line. It is built about a high belt of red flet lace, around which all the interest centers. The skirt is full and the bodice slightly bloused. At this most popular of designers the after noon gowns of silk and crepe are very apt to have their skirts slit in some way so that another and a lighter shade appears between the apertures. And it is true that these foundation c0lOrs are more often than not adorned with embroideries of differ ent sorts. Molyneux shows a street frock in dark blue serge which has q wide, crushed belt of brightly glis- tening red leather.

ONLY WOMAN WHO SHOT NIAGARA FALLS
 DIES IN POVERTY
Annie Edson Taylor Passes Away in Infrmary Penniless
 and Blind.

Buffalo, May 6,-Pepniless, her health broken from years of fighting against poverty and almost blind, Annie Edson Taylor, the only woman who went over Horseshoe Falls and survived and the first person, man or woman, to success fully shoot the Falls" in the barrel died this week at the Niagara County mfr mary at Lockport of old age.
 All her dreams of great wealth to be attained by her dramatic feat unrealized, Mrs. Taylor was at last forced to accept public charity and was sent to the mfr mary from Niagara Falls on February B last
 I've done what no other woman in the world had the nerve to do," said Mrs. Taylor the other day in one of her very infrequent talks with newspaper men, "only to become pauper."
 Mrs. Taylor was probably the best known of all the persons who have exc cuted the many and various daredevil stunts at the Falls. She made the trip over the Canadian side in her barrel on October 21, 1901, feat never before accomplished.

FASHION NOTES

Undergarments of Shetland wool are very popular on the continent.
 smart new feature of the latest millinery is hatpins of enormous size and extravagant character.
 Many smart hats are being trimmed with the same sort of fur which trims the coat they are meant to accom- pany.
 Gowns which look to the East for their inspiration are giving place to those newer and smarter frOcks de- signed after the Spanish mode.
 The fans of the season are elaborate and of many varieties. One interesting model of curled ostrich has a tiny mir TOT in the center Another is made of several swirls of paradise.
 There are two silhOuettes which promise to be very popular this sea- son. They are the long slender out line and the pagoda effect. The latter has a circular skirt topped by sIen- der waist and very plain bodice,

MRS. HARDING GETS
 MARINE GOOD JOB
Private Made President s Per. sonal Orderly Through Her
 Influence.

Washington, May 6.-When President Harding reviewed the Atlantic fleet in Hampton Roads last week his personal orderly on the MayfoWer was private in the Marine Corps, A. Tiggard, trans ferred to the Presidential yacht by the White House itself
 Mrs. Harding rather than the Presi- dent, is responsible for the new duties of the marine. He had been assigned to New Orleans, and happened to be de tailed to the Point Isabel, Tex, wireless station, ordinarily a six months assign ment, when President Harding selected that place for his vacation. While there MT. Harding received many telegrams via the wireless station, and Tiggard was detailed to carry these messages to him.
 One day Tiggard was brushed by an automobile in which Mrs. Harding, R. B. Creager of Brownsville and other members of the party, were riding. While he was comparatively uninj ured, Mrs. Harding regretted the accident and recalled it after the inauguration. Later she requested Commander Ralston Holmes of the Mayf1ower to obtain his transfer

WOMAN OF 50 IS LEGALLY ADOPTED
 AFTER A YEARS
Treated as Daughter, Now Gets Legal Right to Use
 Name.

New York, May o.-Miss Mary Sher- wood, who at the age of six took the place in the family and affections of Mir. and Mrs. Henry (. Webb which had been occupied by their only daughter who died a few years before, has re- ceived the right to legally use the name her foster parents bestowed on her A years ago, and by which she has been known ever since.
 When the Webbs first took her into their home in 1877, Mrs. Webb be- stoyed upon her the name of Maimee 5. Webb During the long years that followed they never thought to take out formal adoption papers. Monday, how ever, Surrogate Foley at MT. Webb's request affixed his signature to the paper that assured the 5O-year-old woman her legal status as the daughter and heir of her foster father.
 Mir. Webb was formerly a member of the wholesale liquor firm of Webb & Meyer of 80 Warren street. He amassed considerable wealth and retired from business some time ago His wife died on May 6, 1916 and since then MT. Webb and his foster daughter have lived alone with a maid to look after their wants At present they are residing i'll an apartment at 248 West 105th street Miss Webb begged to be excused when a reporter called there.
 Mr. Webb's petition for adoption pa pers reveals that the daughter was "borrowed" by him and his wife in 1877 from Sister Anne Ayers of St. Luke's Hospital, in whose care she then was temporarily. The arrangement, origin ally planned to be temporary, became permanent.
 In seeking to have her legally made his daughter, Mr. Webb stated nj his petition that he was taking this step now because he "desired to assure to her the rights of daughter to which she is justly entitled on account of her devotion to him and his wife"
 In addition to his New York apart ment, it is said, Mir. Webb has fine country estate in Connecticut where he and his daughter spend their summers.

CUPBOARD FOR LINEN PIECES
Shelves Should Be Made of Strips of Wood Instead of One
 Solid Board.

An ideal place for linen is a we'll ventilated cupboard, in a warm, dry place and in a good light. The shelves should be made of strips of wood in- stead of one solid piece, so that the air can circulate freely.
 Linen will wear longer and more evenly if it is used uniformly. Put the clean linen in the bottom of the pile and use from the top. In this way each piece is used in turn.
 It is not economy to store linen for long periods without using it. This ap- plies particularly to starched linen, for the starch rots and discolors it. It is the best linen which is most likely to suffer in this way. It should have it's turn for family use, and go through the wash occasionally.
 A good way to protect the coHRerS of tablecieths which somehow always suffer in the laundry, is to sew a piece of tape on them; six inches is enough, three on each side of the corner, and the tape is sewn flat to meet exactly the edge of the cloth.
 Organize, Agitate. Educate-the slo- gan, of the A. F. of L. Can you think of better one?
