New Auditorium To Be Opened
 By Miss Homer

Louise Homer, contralto of the Metro politan Grand Opera, will be the first artist to appear in the Municipal audi torium during dedication week, pre- senting a program Monday night, Oc- tober 20. It is indeed fitting tha tour beautiful auditorium should be inau- gurated as temple of art by so lovely woman as Mime. Homer.
 In a recent interview Mime. Homer said
 "The love of singing is the only thing that makes it worth while to attempt n career of public singer. To attempt to sing for the sake of the rewards of fame and fortune without great love for the art itself is simply to attempt to foist deception on the public and even success in an effort of this kind can lead to no happiness. The love of singing makes all the sacrifices of singers life, small and large, seem as nothing. It makes art worth while for it's own sake and opens up vista of hope and progress which brings its own reward. From the time she was little girl this admirable artist and woman has loved to sing, just for the sake of singing. That is one of the reasons which have made her one of the most popular artists of her day. The public feels instinctively that she is enjoying every minute that she is singing to them-as she really is-and it at once establishes bond of intimacy between her and her audience. It is as if she were in q small room singing for a few friends. It is most interest," ing how she interests her audience the minute she begins to sing and how sym- pathy, is at once established between her and her listeners. It is one of those rare traits that cannot be ac4 quired by lessons. It is something which comes from the soul.

Has woman the inferiority complex? Mrs. Catt has said that women have and Mrs. Ida Clyde Clarke, in an edi- toriaI in Pictorial Review, replies in an interesting discourse.
 Mrs. Catt has said that women have the inferiority complex. This much is certainly true. Organized women of America are not conscious of their pow CT. They make their programs, declare their principles, pass their resolutions, then complain because, by these means, they have not been able to tidy up world affairs overnight. They do not seem to know that in their great organi- zation they have enough concentrated power to translate into reality all of the dreams they are dreaming.
 Heaven knows we have enough or- ganizations, and they have enough members, and they spend enough time and enough money. We certainly should have something to show for it alL And yet let us get down to hard, cold facts, and ask ourselves, What is the net re- suit of our years work?
 We have had something over twenty national conventions of one kind or an- ether, and something oyer five hundred state conventions. We have listened to thousands of speeches. At the General Federation biennial alone there were more than three hundred speeches Now, how much better are our pro- grams for tho coming year going to be because of these meetings and these speeches7
 The first attempt women made to make a platform was back in 1880 At that first meeting they made speeches and passed resolutions about half a dozen things and we are still making speeches and passing resolu' tions on the same things. Though we have moved forward on all of them Ion all except One--we still condemn modern dress
 Hoop-skirts were too wide and hob ble-skirts were to narrow. Long skirts swept up the germs and short skirts are immodest. One would think it i'm possible for women to be modish and moral at the same time.
 Those were radical women, those dar ing ones who met nearly fifty years ago to make the first woman's plat form. They had the audacity to tall s.temperance"-M Volstead was prob ably asleep in his cradle then. They dared to say that women should bI allowed to control their own childrel and their own property and the money they earned, and that they should hav' voice in making the laws under whicl they lived. They declared again thu evil of exploiting the labor of little chil dren and the injustice of depriving then of life and liberty and the pursuit O happiness. They said that one code O morals was enough for human being to live by; that men and women should be held equally responsible for wrong of which they are equally guilty.
 Yes, these are the things we havr been talking about and passing resolu tions about for half a century, ant these are the things we have talke' about and passed resolutions about a twenty national conysntions this year

Opposition to the bill prepared by

statement issued today by President
Luther c. Steward, president of the

Mr.. Steward charges that the bill.
which amends the act of July 81,
1894, making 1t unlawful for any OF
ficer of the Army to hold civil office,
is "fraught with dangerous possibil-
tiles, in thus opening up the civil
branches of government to military
domination and the permeation OF
that militarism which proved so dis
astrous to many European nations
In view of recent statements is
sued by the Secretary of War;" he
adds, with reference to the needs of
the Army for trained officers and the
present dearth of trained military
leaders, it would seem that the Army
is not in position at this time 10 re-
lieve from strict military service any
now in active service, unless indeed
the position be one for which no
civilian in the United States is quail
flied or available.
