How to Practice

In every line OF cndeavor there is a

practiced before stopping to rest, one
girl replied, Two hours and ten min

Poor, tired, strained muscles and
nerves! On stopping for a moment for
careful thought, it is easy TO realize
that to practice two hours without
stopping is not often productive of
the best results and that only the
experienced musician or advanced stu
dent-possessed of physical strength
and resistance-should even attempt
such thing. and even then it must be
realized that probably better results
would be obtained by practicing short
er periods. OF course, sitting at a
piano is not OF ecessity-practicing.
Unless the mind is concentrated on the
work in hand and the body sufficiently
rested to work well, no good will come
of the practice. 1t is very much BET
ter to use shorter periods, an hour or
even a half an hour at time land in

delicate persons, merely fifteen or
twenty minutes) than the long periods
when both mind and body become
tired and incapable OF the best efforts
and results. Results are generally
what count and thought must be given
as TO the most serviceable way to OBJ
tain them.

PRESENT EVERY WOMAN
At AVENUE THEATRE

The rehearsals for the play Every
Woman to be presented at the Ave
nue. Theatre, on Friday evening, De
cember End, are progressing under
the able direction of Mary Dorsey,
noted cocutionist, who will play the
leading role.
The cast for the play has been very
carefully selected from the Ladies'
Amateur Minstrel and the Alpha Phi
Alpha Fraternity and now presents
the best dramatic talent OF the city.
Mrs. Dorsey is putting them through
a thorough drill at every practice and
is very much pleased with the rapid
progress made by each and every
member of her cast
Mrs. Dorsey has had remarkable
success in presenting this play in other
cities, having over $500 people in at
tendance in Detroit and more than that
number in Cleveland at a two-night
performance. The Avenue Theatre
has been engaged for the performance
and the public is advised to secure
seats in advance, as this promises to
be the event OF the winter season, per
haps eclipsing the Ladies' Amateur
Minstrel annual performance. No ex-
pense is being spared TO make the
performance equal to the best repre-
sensations by professionals. An
nouncement will be made next week in
the columns OF this paper where tick
cts can be secured.

TO PROTECT SACRED SNUFF
Reason Given for the High Bench Be-
hind Which Supreme Court Judges
Have Their Seats.

The Federal Supreme court is cele-
bratlng its centenary Of "the high
bench" Originally the justices sat
behind a long bench on the floor Of the
court--on level with the lawyers
who tried their cases before them.
This straight desk had set into 1t a
snuff box opposite each Justices seat.
Henry Clay was arguing case before
the court. During pause In his argu-
ment one Of the justices reached for
ward, took a pinch of snuff and settled
back to weigh the more carefully the
reasoning presented. In his next
pause Mr.. Clay reached over and with
a "Thank you" took pinch himself.
The court was indignant. That after
noon they met to decide what could be
done to preclude the possibility of q
second breach of the etiquette Of the
court" and decided to have bench
made Of such height that no mere
practitioner could reach their pet snuff.
Since then they have sat behind the
high bench that Is In use today.-New
York Tribune.

FREEBOOTERS TRIM
FORT MYER TEAM.
Post Third Team Is Swamped
In Semi-Final Match,
10 to l.

The Freebooters overwhelmed the
Fort Myer third team in the first
semi=final match of the army spring
polo tournament at Fort Myer yes
terday. The final score was 10 to /.
Only in the first period did the Fort
Myer team make things interesting.
In this session they held the Free
hooters to a s-to-1 score. but after
that, the winners outclassed them
in every phase of the game and
scored almost at will in the clos
ing periods.
The game was for the most part
slow. but was featured in spots by
the work of Mai. Margetts and Maj.
Erwin. No better drives have been
made in the tournament to date
than these two play ers pulled off
yesterday. Lieut.. Barden's play was
the only thing which kept the Free
hooters from running up an even
greater total. He put up a magnifi-
cent GENE in the face of oyerwhelm-
ing odds.
The second semi-final match will
pc played at Potomac Park at 4
o'clock today between the Fort
Myer first and second teams. The
winners will meet the Freebooters
in the nnal tomorrow. The Fort
Myer first team has been weakened
by the loss OF Capt. Cole. Capt.
Sharp will probably be seen in his
place in today's game.
