About the same time a silver spoon of identical hallmark and crest was taken to Haddon Hall.
 Mention of such a set is made in the will of Mrs. Katherine Rigeway, dated May g, 1927, which was among the documents destroyed by fire some time ago at the Four Courts, Dublin. The will says:
 q bequeath to the Right Honorable the Lord Chancellor my little seller of chrystal bottles item. I give and bequeath to my Ladye of Eye my guilt spoone with the forks and pen knife suitable to it'' Mrs. Rigeway was widow of George Rigeway, sec retary of the Irish Council, and the Lord Chancellor was Adam LOftus, Lord Loftus of Ely.

NAH LONG FORSAKEN
 BY GIRLS FOR POLO

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 27.-Mah Jongg is to be given the skids into the limbo with tiddledy winks, and other one-time snappy pastimes, ac- cording to an edict issued here by the country club debutantes who are taking up the new polo fad wiCh all the enthusiasm registered year or so ago when the Chinese game came in vogue.
 Mary Smith, who last year daintily fingered Nah Jongg tiles over a tea table, today spends her afternoons astride fiery polo pony, practicins with her team which will compete in a Southern California league.
 In fact, the new fad has been re- ceived so ardently in the younger SO ciety set, that several teams have al ready been organized Recently a team of fast poloists from Beverly Hills, comprised solely Of girls, de feated a team organized in Holly wood. According to the team cap tains, this is the first contest between women's polo teams ever played in the country.

ERA OF OPPRESSION
 HELPS ESTHONIA TO
 PLACATE MIN0RITIE.

RENAL, Feb. 27.-Warm tribute to the tenacity, patriotism and will to law and order" which inspired the Esthonian people to build state in such short time, Esthonia has had but four years of pears, was paid by M Avenol, deputy general-secre- tary of the League of Nations, who hs just left Reval at the head of a special economical committee which visited Esthonia in behalf of the League.
 M. Avenol also praised the meth ods that enabled Esthonia, without foreign assistance of credits to put her financial house in established or der and to pass through the serious crisis of 1923 unscathed. Esthonia, he said had adapted the age-old ad- age Help myself, the Providence will help thee" into Help myself, then the great financiers of the world will also be willing to help"
 An interesting glmipse of Esthon- ian aims and ideals is given in an in terview with Karl Pusta, the foreign minister. Having ourselves lived so long under the oppression of for eign rule, it has been easy for us to fal lin with the principles laid down by the late President Wilson as to the minorities living in our country, the minister said. "Of our own free will we have embodied in our consti- tuition various safeguards for the mi norities; they have even the right to speak their own languages in par liament, and German and Russian deputies have already availed them selves of the privilege"

It is common saying in Europe that the nation that has refused to recog- nize the Soviets is assured of greater benefits than one that has, for conces- sions are used only as bait for suck CTS.
 If the United States has been war ranted in it's policy of non-recognition that justification still stands for the Moscow communists have not altered their foreign policy one jot or title. The refuse to recognize obligations, not only those of the czarist govern ment, but those signed since the revo- lution, nor have they made any pre- tence of redressing the wrongs done to American citizens by the revolu- tionists who openly seized their prop erty without compensation.

SOVIET RECOGNITION

Upon what meat doth this our Caeser fed that he has grown so great?" might be asked of the Soviet government as it cockily express con- fidence that it will be recognized by the United States before the end of the present year.
 Moscow dispatches say the Soviet officials are daily becoming more sanguine of recognition. The Soviet charge d'affaires in London says he is audacious enough to prophecy that the United States will extend recognition before the end of 1925-'not because l have received information from pri- vate sources," he adds, but because the prevailing international situation brought about by the recognition of the Soviet government by France, Japan, Italy and other countries will compel her to recognize us too.'
 Without any private sources of in- formation at this end of the wire it may be prophesied with equal convic- tion that he is wrong.
 But whether he is right or wrong, it is clear that the government of Mos COW are out to win American recogni ton. The communists in control are especially bitter toward Secretary Hughes. No doubt they think, or hope, that his retirement in March will lead to a reversal of American policy in it's dealings with Russia. Yet Presi- dent Coolidge has distinctly and en- phatically declared that America will never cooperate with Russia until her debts to the United States are rec ogniZed, and American property con- fiscated by the Red government is re- stored.
 The Reds are constantly dangling before Americans the morsel of "con- cessions" It was concessions that Japan wanted when it recognized Russia. Concessions were the moving reason for recognition by other coun- tries. But the stark hoax of it all is that these dangled concessions have proved myth. In the first place trade with Russia, of which much has said by persons who favor recogni- tion, never has been a vital factor in our foreign relations. Even during the czarist regime before Russia was wrecked economically, it was not five per cent of our commerce. Since the Reds came into control various con- sessions have been granted, but the Soviets tied so many strings to them that they were given up in disgust.

LIVERPOOL, Feb. 27.-Letters and other documents dealing with man. ners and customs of daily life in the 17th century which came to light re- gently tend to show that it was GUS tomary in those days for persons of quality" to have sets of their own knives and forks which they took with them when invited out.

ORCHESTRAL ION
OF MODERN
DANCE
Spencer Tupman Tells About
Rhythmic Tone Painting
in the Lively Art

Demonstration or moderp dance
music, the youngest of the lively
arts Is termed rhythmic tone
painting" by Spencer Tupman. the
talented young director of the May
flower Gardens orchestra.
In orchestrating modern dance
music, said Director Tupman, lit
is best, generally speaking, to fol-
low scheme of subduing the ex-
cessive color of the original COM
position by the use of reed fnstru-
ments that produce soft tones com
parable to blues or greens, not for
getting though that an occasional
slash of scarlet in the, form Of
high keyed saxophone arrangement
will give bfilliancy and vivacity TO
the whole ensemble.
'The use of brass in playing
dance music is especially inadvis-
able since 1t naturally aocentuates
the too pronounced quality of
many dance selections. There are,
1t Is true, a few real artists in
the use Of brass who can avoid
these unfortunate effects, but they
are so scarce that 1t Is not prac-
ticAble for the director to count on
them in maxine dance arrange
ments.
The saxophone was praised by
Mr. Tupman as generally unap.
preciated instrument. MANY people
think that the saxophone Is an
instrument that is only desirable in
a dance orchestra. But the fact Is
that the saxophone is a really won.
derful instrument in point Of view
of nexibility Of expression, and civ es
an inimitable color to a musical
ensemble. There are several beauti-
full saxophone parts In several
Beethoven symphonies. believe
that the saxophone will play a con-
tinually increasing part in the de:
velopment of modern music"
Frequent change OF key was
recommended by Mr.. Tupman as a
useful device in contributing to the
brill ancy of d dance selection.
"The change OF key at frequent
intervals will give an effect of charm
and variety to almost any dance Sc
lection" said Mr.. Tupman. "Gen.
orally speaking, it is most effective
to gradually scale upward in a sort
of Cutlery fashion, produced largely
by saxophones."
The greatest need of modern
dance music. according to Mr.. Tup.
man. is really original composition.
1T would be idle to say that a large
part Of new dance music is anything
but dross,' he said. "It is this rea-
son, / think, which has made a large
part OF the public enthuse over the
jazZing up Of classical music. In
these arrangements there is the
starting point OF really wonderful
melody dominating all the frills that
NAV be attached "
