AROUND THE CITY
BY Mamie Lancaster

with club members and guests was
genuinely Interested in every word
she said. The topic concerned the
wrong that women do to wear festh-
ers on their hats. and there was
only applause to mark her high
points, except for one woman, whose
brother is a farmer in lower Mary
land. She protested that the killing
of some birds is as necessary as the
exterminating of potato bugs and boil
weevil.
IF you had ever lived on a farm
and seen the damage birds do to
fruit and grain"
But. you do not get the injustice
1t is to murder birds for merely do
ing what nature bids them do. They
are innocent of their misdeeds. Per-
haps l am oversensitive, but the
sight of feather on a woman's hat,
gives me the feeling that she is an
accessory of murder after the fact"
There was more to it, and every
thing went OF beautifully with the
rest of the program, including re
freshments served"
And only two prying woman re-
porters, nosing for news. caught on
to the fact that the defender of birds
was carrying a leather handbag or
namented with the claw of a baby al
ligator, and that her shoulder was
gracefully draped with a fox fur
with tail and legs dangling and its
head realistic with little teeth and
yellowish glass eyes.

NIE are going to have IA mora
w SHOWS this Winter. Exactly. A
man who likes to talk about weather
says so. And, furthermore. if you
have your doubts. go to some place
where they keep a book of ancient
traditions and you will find that the
snowfalls of any season will equal
the number of the day Of the month
on which the first one starts in. And
as we had our first snow furry on
Saturday, the 18th, there are IA more
SHOWS due.
To accent the accuracy of this fore
cast it is only necessary to recall that
when it rains on ST. Swithin's day it
keeps raining right on for 40 days
except, of course, when it doesn't.

MUSIC CLUB ELECTS.
Friday Morning Group Chooses
j. Mrs. Eugene Byrnes President.

The Friday Morning Music Club
announced its new officers for the
season 1924-5 at the first program
meeting at the Cosmos Club Fri
day, when an audience which, filled
the auditorium to capacity was pres
ent. Mrs. Eugene Byrnes is presi-
dent. The other officers are: Mrs

The first recital of this the thirty
ninth season of the club was pre-
scented by Helen Corbin Heinl. pian-
list. and Charles Trowbridge Tit
mann. bass, both well known In
Washington music circles. Addi-
tional interest was aroused by the
fact that the club heard for the first
time the new concert grand piano
which has just been purchased as a
result of voluntary contributions by
active and associate members.
The Hutchinson paraphrase of Wag-
ner's Ride of the Walkyries" gave
Mrs. Heinl probably the best oppor-
tunity of any of her numbers to dis
play her brilliance of technic. Other
selections which were received with
special enthusiasm were Chopin's
"Fantasie in + Minor" and Arensky's
"Etude."
Mr.. Tittmann seemed in unusually
fine voice and sang. among other
numbers, a German Eeder group by
Schubert, Schumann and Brahms.
He concluded with O'Hara's clever
"Leetle Bateese."

the music division of the Library of
Congress. will address the members
