BAD WEATHER FAILS
TO MAR .4USPfClOUS
MUSIC WEEK OPENING
Concerts and Chrrca Music
Make Sasdcy Enjoyable
to Mn;ic-lorers.

Except for the slightly inclement
weather of Sunday, Music Week, Feb
ruary lily, opened auspiciously. Spe-
cial musical services were held in the
churches, with sermons on the power
that music has for good. The value of
music as a help in making the daily
lives of men better and finer was en-
phasized and attention was drawn TO
the natural tendency of all men to ex-
press their highest spiritual emotions
in music, with or without words.
mo man." it was said, "can do or
think mean or ugly things when he is
listening to beautiful music, or making
it," Shakespeare's oft-quoted words,
1.-THE man who hath not music in his
soul and is not moved by concord of
sweet sounds is fit for treason, strate-
gems and spoils," formed the gist of
many excellent talks throughout the
city.
The first formal program given as
part of the celebrate of Music Week
was the organ recital of Miss Mildred
Hardy Duggan played before a large
and appreciative audience at 8 o'clock
| Sunday afternoon in st. Marks Epis-
copal Church. Her program, arranged
from selections from standard works
of Mendelssohn, had for variety and
balance a group of interesting modern
compositions by Rogers and Borowski.
Especially enjoyable was the Andante
Movement from the MendelssOhn So
nata, in which an effective choice of
stops was displayed. Miss Duggan is
one of the talented younger organists
of the city whose work shows serious
musicianship and promises interesting
mature development.
The Lederkranz, with Otto HilgerS
conducting, attracted capacity audi.
ence in the lobby of the Gunter HoteI
on Sunday evening with group OF
favorite old songs. Lead Kindly
Light" the Lullaby" by Brahms
Garry Me Back to Old Virginny,
with a baritone solo by L. NJ. ]. Diel.
mann, and annie Laurie" with a
L-ritone solo part by Charles Meyer
were the hits of the evening.
The Liederkranz has 30 voices this
year in a well-balanced chorus, with
an unusually good bass section. 1t is
considered one of the very best mems
singing societies in the state, having
won six or eight first prizes in the an
nual competitive concerts of the State
Sangerbund.
The band concert by the massed resi.
mental bands in front Of General
Lewis's quarters at Fort Sam Houston
attracted a large crowd in spite of the
unsettled weather. Otto Majewski,
warrant officer and band leader of the
Twenty-third infantry, conducted a
group Of players selected as the best
| in the various army bands stationed
at Fort Sam Houston in program of
numbers that were much enjoyed.

AMERICAN LABOR OPPOSES PRESENT
 PLANS OF EUROPEAN LABOR.

Tho International Federation of Trade Unions will have to drcp "isms and dogmas that have no proper place the trade union movement before it can eX- peet cooperation from American labor. This is he view C. Samuel Gompers expressed in the leading article in the June issue of the American Fedora itionst Mr. Gonpers says, in part;
 It is reported that represen tatyes of the International Federation of Trade Unions are soon visit Canada and the United States present the viewpoint of their organiza- ton and to change the viewpoint of Ameri- labor toward that organization.
 II Is tc be hoped that if such deega- ton it will bring some substantial intimation that the policies of the Interna- tcna Federation of Trade Unions under going change and that certain of its declara- tions to be modified or rescinded.
 American labor has every desire to par ticipate in the international affairs of trade unionism, it's only nsstence being that in- ternational trade unonism must not be per verted by isms and dogmas that have proper place in the trade union movement. After reviewing the failure of European labor to take any concerted action because of the occupation of tae Ruhr and contrasting this failure with previous threats of international strikes. he continued
 Nothing is to be gained in international relations by policy that does not contem- plate absolute frankness every side
 American labor has sought repeatedly to make it's point of view clear the Interna- s@tional Federation of, Trade Unions.
 One oi the points upon which there has been and is disagreement is the question of opposition 10 war. American labor is as bitterly opposed to and urgently de- sirous ol peace as labor anywhere in the world. American labor, however, refuses to b. deluded either by dreams of an impossible Utopia CT by hopes in fantastic program for international cessation of work upon prearranaed signal
 It is possible that there might be a war or such a character that all wage earners everywhere would refuse either to fight or to produce munitions. It is equally possible mere might be a war in which a refusal of participation would constitute treachery to lhe whole couse of human freedom and world progress Nothing heinous can be con eeiVed than q refusal upon the part of the workers of the allied and associated nations 10 participate in the late war for the de- siruetlon of the Kaserist systm of political autocracy
 There appears to be running through much of the European labor movement at this time feeling that the workers are in the world but not of it; that they form a group set apart from, and of necessity hos uie 10. every other group; and that every motion must be accompanied with a threat or a gesture of defiance

If It Fits-

This is the season when mother Is giving the prospective bride a lot of advice and father is giving her a lot of money for her rousseau.
 When a man looks at the bills for his wife's new spring toggery and then at all tho new leaves on the trees going to waste he begins to wish the old world hadn't gotten so far away from the Garden of Eden.
 However, if we were looking for a wife We doubt If we would pick a girl just because she won the prize at a nonstop dancing contest
 A woman's work is never done, especially when her job is primping.
 Nobody seems to be content in this old world. The young want to be old, the old young, the skinny fat and the fat thin.
 Another thing that shows how much more courage a woman has than a man is the fact that when a woman is dissatisfied with what she has bought she goes back and gets her money back, while man just gives it to the porter.
 Something for their liver would make optimists out of most pessi- mists.
 We don't iiko ncryy people, but we do envy them the way they can get what they want.
 This is going to be grand old world when wives are as willing to give their husbands credit for what they do as they are to roast them for what they don't do.

Twelve Needed Inventions.

Through the British Institute of Patentees Sir William Bell offers twelve suggestions to in- ventions needed by the world It is presumed that in the following list he confines himself to inven- tions not beyond the bounds of assumed possibility:

 A furnace that will 95 per cent. of heat.

 Practical ways of utilizing the tides

 A pipe that be cleaned easily and effectively.
 A temperance drink that will keep and yet not pail the palate
 Talking moving pictures
 Seeing what they do with automobiles the s,lg- geston or boys and girls driving arplanes is dis coneerting. For the rest, the list stands inspec- uoh. The swift development of hydraulic electric engineering has turned attention more than ever peore 10 the utilization of the limitless tidal power now going 10 waste. But we could get along with out this a little longer if we could devise mora economical furnace and anti-frctional means moro satisfactory than ball bearings.
