PEN WOMEN FURNISHED
GENUINE ENTERTAINMENT.

There isn't any use starting to
tell you the details of the Pen
Women League convention or fair
or ball for II would be too long a
task. there was so much doing"
One certainly got ones moneys
worth. But / will say that the por-
trait of Francis Thomas by Frank
lin Barber Clark attracted much
attention and admiration. 1t is a
highly completed work. As the eye
glides over the surface of the can
vas II finds every part of il perfect
and alive" 1t is indescribably ef-
fective and impressive and the like
ness and personality presented with
Mr.. Clark's usual fidelity. The fesh
tones are remarkable reproductions
of human flesh. The characterful
head is admirable, which, together
with the easy pose of the figure ana
calmly folded hands. proclaim ele-
gance and dignity in every detail.
To see 1t Is to remember It. Many
OF Mr.. Clark's portraits are con-
ceptions of his subjects in Landscape
settings, which he also happily en-
ploys in his miniature portraits,
showing the technical resources of
the painter.
The rare and lovely miniatures,
OF which an interesting group was
shown, were poems in color and
characterized by grace of COMPOST
tion. fine technique and exquisite
detail and give a clear idea Of the
charm Of the painter. The absorb
ing interest in a miniature, as every
one knows who is up" on the sub
Ject, Is the very minuteness, the ex-
quisite gem-like quality of its de-
tail. the exhibition of a technique
bespeaking the utmost nicely Of
sight and touch. Indeed, IL is diff
cult to recall any small painting in
which these qualities are not of par
amount importance-andt these min
iatures are a marvel of detail,
AS 1 approached the case a group
OF gentlemen, all bearing the unmis-
taxable stamp of connoisseur, was

MISS B0ARDMAN ADDRESSES
NATIONAL COMMUNITY SCHOOL

Miss Mabel Boardman addressed
the members of the National Com
munity Service School held in WASH
ington at Community Service head
quarters. Miss Boardman said that
recreation was a necessity of life,
the same as food, shelter or cloth
ing, so that IL was the essence Of
real education because II promoted
Initiative and self-discipline. She
made the striking difference be-
tween recreation and amusement
recreation is of educational value:
II means the refreshment and the
renewing and the recreating of life
for the days work. She pointed out
how well Earl Gray made this strik-
ing statement in his late book.
Miss Boardman remarked that
wholesome recreation was stronger
than vice, that young people will
seek recreation and they will seek
the wrong kind of recreation unless
proper places and forms of recrea-
tion were provided. She well illus
tsted the necessity of having the
people themselves take part in their
plays and games. She spoke of the

those positions. 1 am told, just be-
cause they were appointed by the
Democrats. 1t does seem to me that
if the Democrats were big enough
to put Republicans into those po-
sitions the Republicans could be at
least big enough to leave them there
particularly when they are efficient,
as several of that group are. The
diplomatic service is so important
that it should be placed higher than
politics. and men who have devoted
their lives to the diplomatic and
consular services and really know
the ropes should be rewarded by
giving them the ambassadorships
and positions as ministers instead of
taking men suddenly out of business
or private life and placing them in
those important places. At least
this is what I think about it all. I
feel very deeply on the subject. I
think 1t is a matter of vital import
ance to this nation.

Why There Is No Such Thing as Sound

A cracked or split bell gives dissgreeable
non-muscal sound, because the crack causes
double vibration. The sound-waves clash and Jar
impede each others motion, and so produce, when
they reach the drum Of the ear, discordant
sound
Slow vibrations produce bass deep sounds
Quick vibrations produce treble or shriu soundA
The deepest bass sound sudble-capable, that Is
Of being received on the ear drums produced
by 80 vibrations per second. The sharpest treble
sound goes TO $1,000 per second.
Sounds are heard best on a clear, cold day
The reason is because the air is Of uniform den
sity and there are fewer currents and less varia-
tons Of temperature to interfere with the sound
waves.
Sounds are feeblest in not weather, az rarefed

miracles IN graduating deformties Of the face
Dr. Teck, writing in the American Journal Of
Surgery, further says;
when facial Disagreement is such as TO
cause serious social or business embarrassment,
1t is real and potent cause of unhappiness. Men
and women in business and professional life know
the value Of good appearance. Young women Of
manageable age, particularly, feel keenly the
disadvantage Of distorted features. If the sur
geon can scientifically, and without danger or in
convenience, improve facial appearance in such
cases. he is ministerng to a legitimate and i'm
pOrtant demand worthy Of his best efforts The
unfortunate individual who suffers financially.
socially or mentally because of a hideously
formed nose has much claim to the skill of the
surgeon as the one with an ugly scar or other
blemish has to the skill of the dermatologist
"The defOrmities usually encountered are:
The hook or bent nose. the saddle nose, the lat
orally deviated or bent nose, and the long nose
These deformities usually inherited, although
they may be due to trauma or disease.

y CHEMISTS say that there is really no such
thing as sound at all, but what is called
- sounds is vibrations.
When a bell is hit, it vibrates. The vibrations
produce a corresponding motion in the air, which
strikes on the drum OF the ear, and gives the
sation of sound Touch the bell with your finger
and you stop its vibrations. The sound-waves In
the 1ir at once cease, and you hear no sound.
Different vibrations cause different sounds"
using the word in its usual sense. Musical
sounds are the regular and uniform succession
Of vibration. Some sounds are sonorous and
pleasing, others are dead"
The difference is due to the quality Of the
sound-originating substance. A hard and elastic
substance like copper or iron will give vibrations
which come TO the ear pleasantly.
From lead, which is not hard nor elastic, the

been devoting a good part of his time to just
such operations, pairing nasal bone here TO re-

to better advantage even than their formerly
supposed more fortunate friends born with

To be born with a deformity is one thing. to
