DIGESTIVE MUSIC

Sir James Dundas-Grant is referred to as an
authority in the London Dispatch which sets
forth his ideas about music as an aid to digestion.
Occasionally some courageous mortal is heard to
murmur against the prevailing custom of serving
music with the food in public eating places These
persons have maintained that they would prefer
peace and quiet and an opportunity for friendly
conversation. According to Sir James, however,
it is only the type of music to which they have
been subjected that has turned them against
music in the dining room.
Music of the right sort is better than digestive
tablets says this authority. To be of the right
sort it must be very carefully selected with refer
ence to different courses and should change
psychoogically with soup, fish, joint game, sweet
salad or whatever the dish before one is.
1t is easy to admit that there may be much
in Sir James theory. Anything would be an i'm
provement over the jazz band racket which has
been forced on the long-suffering diner in recent
years. 1t still remains to be proved however,
that the musician is an essential to the dining
room. AS for the "crank" who writes these
lines, he would much prefer having his food serv-
ed quietly and afterward to go to concert for his
music.

PEGGY AND HER pen

Peggy Joyce is writing book on her life with
three millionares and says she is going to show
ambitious young girls how to snag the luxurious
male. If Peggy were going to do this in the films
there would be roar that could be heard clear to
Hollywood, but, as it is bookish affair." nothing
will come of it. After Peggy has written her
book there is no assurance that she can persuade
the fappers to read it. After the press agent
has done his work and the paragrapher has had
his say the book will be left to its merits AS it
probably will not have any, its merits will be
short-lived. The fact that red-headed show girl
has been the plaything of three or four million
aires does not guarantee niche in the literary
hall of fame. Peggy is not only repellant to the
female, but the susceptible male is
afraid of her.

BACK TO DUST

Science has finally answered the conundrum of
what becomes of all the pins 1t seems that they
disintegrate and return to dust again Stick a
pin in your onion patch and in BAT daysSit will
have disappeared entirely. Hairpins are even
shorter-lived A hairpin lying in the open and ex-
posed to the elements will become negligible in
154 days. If the wife finds strange hairpin in
the garage she should begin her detective work
at once. 1t is probably a fresh lead. In six
months the evidence may disappear 1t does seem
that everything made by man returns in time to
the dust of which he himself is composed

MUSIC RECITAL
IS ATTENDED BY
Big AUDIENCE
Many Enjoy High Class Program Ren.
dered By Miss Ida Berry's Pupils
In Annual Recital on
.. Monday Evening.

A large company of parents, friends
and music lovers assembled in the
American Legion building Monday
evening to attend the annual piano
recital given by the pupils of Miss
Ida Berry. About twenty young peo-
pie took part in the program which
consisted of selections not only suited
TO the ability of each performer but a
class of music much above the ord
mary. 1t was a program to be enjoyed
by all lovers of coed music. It is
always pleasure to one, who has at
tended recitals for several years to
note the progress made by pupils. And
it does not take long to pick out those
of exceptional musical talent. There
are many such in Miss Berrys class.
1t speaks we'll for Maysville that so
many of her young people are taking
such an interest in music. And to
those who love the piano it is indeed
fortunate to have teacher such as
Miss Berry who is able to develop the
musical talent of our young people to
such an extent. Those who heard the
program Monday evening will agree
that Maysville has many prospective
piano soloists in the making.
A special number not announced on
the program was very pleasing solo
sung by Miss Corrine Arthur. This was
very acceptable addition to the eve
nings enjoyment and fully appreciated
by all.

BRINGING LOST TO A
SAVIOR IS DISCUSSED
Evangelist at Tent Meeting Stresses
the Activity Of Christian in Saving
Others From Their Sins.

bringing the Lost to Christ" was
the topic of Evangelist Howard's SER
mon Monday evening. His text was
taken from Matthew 2:5,. when Jesus
saw their faith He said unto the sick
of the palsy, Son thy sins are forgiven
thee"
Evangelist Howard said in part:
Every truly saved man has an ambi-
tion to bring the lost to Christ. If you
do not have a desire to see souls
brought to Christ, it is a pretty good
evidence that you are not saved. Jesus
saves us in order that we might help
to get somebody else saved.
Jesus Christ is an intercessor to-
night, interceding at the right hand of
the Father, not for the lost, but for
christians. So we as christians must
be the intercessors for the unsaved.
Your salvation began through the
faith of somebody else. Somebody
prayed for your salvation and so God
is expecting us as christians to pray
for somebody else. So let us ask our
selves the question, what can we do in
this meeting to help bring souls to
Christ"
This stirring message touched the
hearts of many christians who attend
ed the service Monday evening. You
are missing a great treat if you are
not attending these tent meetings.
Services at p. M, and 7:30 p. m.
Come, and bring somebody with you.
