Chopin. Interesting Study.
Chopin, the lyrical composer par
excellence" of the modern school, a
musical genius, whose death at SO
years of age took from the world q
wealth of melody personified in a
delicate man of extreme refinement
of meins and manner, whose mazur.
kas, valses, polonaises, songs, and
other pianoforte solo works TEEN
with intensity of expression and
beauty equalled in literature only
in the songs of Heine, constituted
the subject study at the interesting
Matinee Music Club meeting at the
residence of Mrs r L Howard, Brew
er street. Thursday afternoon.
Mrs M C Virgins was program
leader. An excellent sketch of Chop
in was given by Mrs Priestly Jerni-
gan.
Chopin numbers, ably played, de-
lighted the many club members and
music lovers who attended the meet
ing.
The Chopin, "Polonaise C Sharp
Minor" was beautifully given by
Miss VOLTA Rudolph, who is quite
talented. Her expression and inter
probation were particularly commend
able.
Two pleasing selections THE Mai
denis Wish" and Chopin Nocturne'
were played by Mrs Milton c Wig
gins and Miss Bayer, both being well
executed.
A Chopin waltz &C Sharp Minor
by Miss Virginia Weldon, a talented
student member, and a vocal solo by
Miss Lavinia Currier completed the
enjoyable musical program.
The Music Club members are de-
lighted over the evident interest in
the approaching Musical Memory Con.
test to be held in the schools and are
at work ON many plans to get the
one hundred musical selections con-
shutting the contest before the chill
dren. 1t is hoped to give weekly
public concerts, where various of the
numbers will be played, and at
which contestants may become grad
ually familiar with the musical
scores.

The Bergdoll Bribery Charge.

Mrs. Bergdoll's statement to the
House select committee investigating
the escape Of her son, the military
Stacker, raises a question Of fact that
is Of the utmost Importance and calls
for searching inquiry. If. as she
states, sum Of money was given to
an officer of the Army to effect the
escape Of her son. a crime was COM
mitted both by her and the officer that
calls for drastic punishment. The tale
she tells on the witness stand is ex.
traordinary. According to it the sum
Of 100000 was demanded first, "for
the higher ups in Washington" She
also stated that her attorney advised
her to set aside 315o.ooo for the same
purpose. II she is telling the truth

Business and a Business Man.

Chairman Madden is to be congratu-
lated on his first announcement. A
great deal is packed in that one SEN
tence-"Economy of expenditure with
out destroying the efficiency Of govern
ment."
Economy-the most careful weigh
ing of every allowance-we must
formation, and the people expect the
order to be obeyed. The tax burden
is oppressive. 1t is heavy beyond prec-
edent, and the people are awaken
ing to the fact that no miracle is at
work, or at command, for Tightening
1t. Time is indispensable in the opera
ton.
But equally imperative is 1t that the
efficiency Of the government must not
be destroyed, or even impaired. The
government in its new relations to the
world needs strong support. Those
new relations are to a new world, and
there Is no boast in the statement that
the United States Is today the strong
est nation in the world. 1t follows,
therefore, that this government, for
its own good. as well as for The good
of others, must function in the highest
state of usefulness. To deny it any
thing essential to the fit exercise Of
its powers would not be economy, but
might be cheeseparing Of the most
dangerous description.
Mr.. Madden is veteran legislator,
with sixteen years Of service in the
House to his credit. His early train
ing was in business, and in politics
he has addressed himself largely to
business subjects. He represents a dis
trict in the heart Of the second largest
city in the country. Chicago is hive
of business. So trained, so situated
he should distinguish himself in a
post which affords the largest oppor-
tunity he has ever had for the exer-
else of his capacity for congressional
labor.

The Philippine Problem.

Fidel A. Reyes, director Of the bu
reau of commerce and industry Of the
Philippine Islands. is in London at
tending the international exposition OF
rubber and other tropical plants. In
an address on the subject Of condt
tions at home, Senior Reyes said:
by promoting one.of the most mod
ern and efficient systems of public
education. by placing upon our own
shoulders the responsibilities of man
aging our own domestic affairs. and
by assisting us in raising our stand
ard Of living the American people
have given to my people as a lasting
blessing all that is best in American
life and institutions"
Cannot the American people be
trusted while they remain in control
in the Philippines to continue policy
which according to this confession has
done so much for the people OF
the archipelago? Is there a good rea-
son why they should withdraw now
on the eve of important readjustments
everywhere, in the orient as in the
occident? The time for bringing Amer

with the world in ferment?
Senior Reyes said further, in point
ing out to foreign capital the ad-
vantages to be derived from invest.
ments in the archipelago:
The Philippines. because Of their
strategical location, can serve as a
convenient distributing point for the
Asiatic trade. The manufacture OF nm
he'd articles for China, Siberia and
other oriental countries from tropical-
ly-grown raw material can. of course.
be carried on in the Philippines to
great advantage"
We want as large q portion OF the
Asiatic trade as can be obtained. The
markets Of China, Siberia and other
oriental countries" are in our CAL
culations. Should we not consider
them in shaping our future course in
the Philippines, and especially as for
eign trade is now in the calculations Of
all the great nations?
Our Philippine problem was never
more interesting or worthier Of our
best thought than now.

Inspecting the Field,

Many Of our leading business men
bankers. manufacturers. merchants
and all-around investors-are visiting
Europe. not as sightseers making note
Of the wars awful destruction, but as
men Of affairs concerned about re.
habilitations and the best means of
providing for the future.
Nor are they looking over the field
for the first time. They knew Europe
before the war came. They had large
business connections there, and were
students Of it's economic and COM
mercial life.
With the exception of Russia, all the
countries are open, and American WIS.,
itors are welcome everywhere. This
Is stated In all the published reports.
1t is not only that America is recog-
nized as the soundest Of the nations
to do business with now, but that her
representative business men are eager
to improve the new opportunities the
world upheaval has brought into be-
ing, and that they are capable Of do
ing so.
Russia is closed. How long she will
remain so is a question. Great pos
sibilities are there; and when the day
for developing them dawns we should
be ready to move with the procession.
The value of all this lies in the fact
that our foundations for European
business are being laid by men who
know their business, who are thor
oughly alive to the demands of the
times, and aware Of the lively com.
petition they are scheduled to meet.

A Defeat" for Lloyd George.

When Premier Lloyd George and his
wife gave garden party at No. 10
Downing street yesterday and invited
the entire membership Of the house Of
commons they did not think that they
were endangering the stability Of the
British government. So general was
the response to their invitation that
the house of commons was compara-
lively depopulated at the afternoon
session. Most Of the absentees were
government supporters, and the op-
position leaders, seeing an oppor-
tunity, pressed to q vote an amend.
ment to a pending bill by virtue of
which cooperative societies would be
exempted from paying a corporation
tax. Immediately the government
whips began to scurry about and hus-
tie for votes. but before they could
round up the membership the division
had occurred and the amendment was
adopted, 1877 to 1876. 1t was govern
ment defeat.
Ordinarily, even on an insignificant
question, when the British ministry
fails to maintain it's legislative prop
ositions it quits office. But in this
case it has not done so and probably
will not. The question at issue before
the house is of no particular conse-
quence, and the circumstances of the
defeat" were exceptional. But the
incident. nevertheless, has its sig
nificance. 1t indicates the extreme
slenderness of the governments hold
in the commons. notwithstanding the
large theoretical majority.
Lloyd George went before the coun-
try" in November. 1918, largely on
the issue Of insuring the punishment
of Germany for it's war guilt. TRY
the kaiser!' was the slogan Of the cam
paign, which, closing In late Decem-
ber, gave the ministry q large sup
port in commons. Since then much
has happened and the governments
parliamentary position is not at all as
strong as it was after the elections.
The kaiser has not been tried and will
not be. The British industrial situa-
ton has been badly snarled by a sue
cession of strikes and compromises.
The Irish situation has become acute.
But the ministry will not seek an
other referendum at once, If it can
possibly avoid it. It will assuredly not
go before the country until there is
some sort of settlement Of the Irish
question, which is certain to be a fac
tor in the next campaign. If the con-
ferences now in progress in London
result in Irish peace and adjustment.
the premier may feel safe in case
general election is precipitated. OF
course, the ministry will not seek the
issue. The "ins' rarely invite pos
sible defeat. Consequently this pres
ent technical reverse in the house Of
commons will not be permitted to fig
ure as a reason for resignation, how
ever significant it may be Of a weak.
ened position.

Why Is q Bachelor?

The question Of "Why is a bachelor"
has long puzzled the sex to which is
generally attributed the characteristic
of inquisitiveness. A variety Of ex-
plantations Of varying degrees Of plau-
sibility have, from time to time, been
volunteered. Blighted puppy love, an
inveterate addiction to golf, the comic
supplements and vaudeville jests,
friendship for a pipe or an ill-fitting
coat, have all been brought forward
as the solution to the riddle. Yet
somehow they fail to satisfy. And
since the bachelors and the few mar.
ried men who alone know the real
answer insist upon keeping it to them
selves, the perplexity Of the balance
of the world has 50 far remained I'm.
relieved.
Today, however. It would seem that
a. determined effort Is afoot to arrive
at the truth of the, matter. Over in
France, where falling birth rate is
pronounced to>he the responsibility Of
those loath to assume the paternal
function of pushing the perambulator
of a Sunday afternoon or walking the
cries of little Paul-Marie into, reluc.
tant slumber almost any night. they
are on the trail Of the truth. On the
theory that no more subtle reasoning
than financial caution and selfishness
prompts elusive young Castor to flee
the unquestioned charms Of dainty
Colette, the government is proceeding
with admirable directness toward the
remedy. A sub
