 After the apron has been cut, finish all edges with neat narrow hem. Then join material on shoulder with 8 French seam which is made by sewing the front and back pieces with a fine running stitch, on right side, as shown in sketch.

After the design has been worked on the pockets. fold edge and haste. Then haste pockets in position. AS little hands make great use of pock- cts, it will be well to sew them on with a tiny back-stitch.

whole house when she is asleep such heavy breathing and always her mouth open. l am in family way five months and am so worried about this child as someone said l should wait with the operation till everything is over with me. but it makes me cry when I see her suffering I should have had them taken out long already but have all ways been afraid she might die at the operation and could not overcome it. and my other baby of 2 be alone left. Now please could you let me know something else what would bring her relief. Or do you think it would do some harm to me as I am not very strong with my heart?
 Answer-Arrange for the operation now. The risk of death to the child from operation by an experienced sur geon is not to be considered by com parison with the childs sufferings, and within the hour it will seem to you if your child had been reborn.
 Bow Legs
 My boy 12 years old is quite bow legged. so much so that he rocks when he walks. Is there any chance of his outgrowing it, or should he be taken to a bone specialist

Cause Of Good Music Has Made Great Strides
 In A Year, Asserts Doctor
Leader of Musical Oganiza tlons, Has High Hopes for City As 8 Musi-
 cal Center
By ZELDA BEDEIL

That the love of good music has advanced 100 per cent in the past year Is the contention of Dr. Giovanni l.. Gonterno. director-composer in charge of the destinies of the Harvey Hubbell Inc, Concert band, the Junior Symphony orchestra and the Bridgeport Symphony orchestra, in a recent inter- view.
 This has been amply dem onstrated by the interest taken, not alone by the real musicians of the city, of whom there arc a large number. but also by the laity and now by the chil- iren." continued the doctor. for they are indeed beginning to respond gloriously to the appeal for good music"
 Career Is Brilliant
 It is hardly necessary to introduce Dr. Con'erno, who came to Bridge year ago. to take charge of the liar Vey Hub'Eeil band.
 The doctor has had a brilliant ca reer. Beginning to conduct when he was only IT years old, under the in struction of his father also a famous band master, and his uncle, Dr. Nj caulau, New York symphony orches- tra conductor. he has profted by his instru ctton and has been at it ever since.
 Dr. Conterno was educated at home and abroad, having studied in London. Paris, Berlin and Amsterdam, getting his degree of Doctor of Music from the University of the State of New York when he was only 26 years old. At that time, Dr. Conteruo was accounted to be the youngest possess or of a degree of such importance. The university confers three de grees: Bachelor of Music, which is the lowest; Master of Music, next in importance: and Doctor of Music, which is the highest degree. Dr. Conterno has conducted the great sym this degree. In order to attain this, it is necessary that. the aspirsnt be proficient in three branches of musical study: musical construction, philoso- phy of music and history of music These branches must be mastered be- fore the degree is conferred.
 The doctors career abroad was ex- ceedingly successful. He studied in London, Paris, Berlin and Amster- dam his compositions were enthu- siastLcally received all over the con tiinent, and his appearances as con ductor were always pleasure ble. Dr. onterno has conducted the great sym phony orchestra of 90 musicians In appeared as a guest conductor in Ser

colleagues and together we Or
ganized special free courses for
the ewish students. The activi-
ties of our small group were as
sisted by the Department of In
struction and received it's official
recognition and sanction.
These and similar experiences
awake within me my national
Jewish consciousness. l am ma
tionalist in the sense that I re-
gard the maintenance of all ma
tionalities as an important aim in
itself. I consider the Jewish ma
tionality as an incontrovertible
fact, the consequences of which
all Jews are bound to accept.
This, indeed, is the basis of my
Zionism and the motive for my
Zionist activity. For me, Zion
ism is not limited to any coloniz-
ing effort in Palestine. Jewish
nationhood is fact in both Pa1es-
tine and the Dlaspora and J Jewish
nationalism must develop wher-
ever Jews reside. Those Zionists
who deny the existence of a Jew
ish nationality in the Diaspora or
those Zionists who refuse to par
ticipate actively in it's revivica-
ton are doing their work but in
part and badly at that. Those
who maintain that the Jewish ma
tionality is, or is to be-, limited to
Palestine, deny the existence of
Jewish people. In that event
they should, I feel, have the cour-
age and consistency to work
towards a thorough assimilation
in the Diaspora.
Until a generation ago, the
Jews of Germany did not con-
slider themselves a part of the
Jewish people. They styled them
selves Germans of the Mosaic
Persuasion" In fact, many of
them still maintain themselves as
such. I have found indeed that
they are far more assimilated by
their environment than the Jews
of Russia. For, while in Russia,
at least before the outbreak of
the war, the educated and cul-
