Tapestry in History.

During the Italian Renaissance the
art developed in subtle treatment Of
color and shading, and Flemish tap
estry reached its height of artistic per-
lection in the magnificent pieces from
cartoons by Raphael and other Ital-
ian masters.
Royalty supported the industry at
this period. Incidents of history were
woven into design with threads of
gold and silver, and even jewels 9th
ers were mellowed by soft colorings of
wool, with their high lights supplied
by silken threads. The dyes, often as
costly as the gold and silver have
held their colors for centuries, and 1t
has been beyond the modern chemist
to solve their alchemy. No such col
ors can be produced today, nor none
that are so unfading. When tapestry

We're invited guests for the evening,
and while they thoroughly enjoyed
the program of songs and readings,
they did not show their appreciation
as fully as they did when the splen-

A vocal solo was rendered by Miss
Edna Petersen. Then followed the
readings by Miss Olga Baker, Miss
Marjorie Wilson, Mary Kennedy and
Dorothy Lowther. Miss Frances
Halvorsen delighted the company
with a piano selection. ...
The specially of the evening was
the song and dance given by Joe
Roth and Pete Petersen. This prov

to feel as though they would soon
be vaudeville stars.

capacity. The Club has made the

WHALE is CHAMPION JUMPER
Mammal Easily Holds All Records
When Il Comes to a Question Of
High Leaping.

If you were asked the question:
what animal can jump the highestT
you would in all likelihood, guess
wrong. II Is the whale
oh. yes, the whale is mammal, not
a fish, and he can jump out of the wa
ter to height of % feet with the
greatest ease. This is about twice as
high as the tiger, who can manage
about 1914 feet to 10 feet. A dog has
been known to clear 10 feet, and the
horse follows next with Z feet S1s
inches.
Mans record high jump was made
in 1914 by a Californian, who reached
8 feet 5-16 inches In 1913, the ire
mendous height of feet 5% inches
was attained for the standing high
jump, though in 1892 man reached
6 feet, with weights, at this jump.
AS regards the long jump, without
weights, the record, "a feet 11M
inches, was made in 1901, and it has
now stood for nearly twenty years.
The longest jump backwards, with
weights, is II feet IL inches, and the
holder of this record also holds that
of the standing long jump, without
weights, with u feet IA inches.
OF animals, one might expect the
kangaroo to hold the record, but he
can only manage Is feet-ten less than
man-though. talking of long jumps,
how about the grasshopper? He can
jump 200 times his own length.
