Through he Static

From the looks Of things, well use your own judgment. Last night was another enigma, We don't mean that at all. but We like the word, enigma, and We just had to use it anyway. But now we'll proceed to give you 1 the hot dope, tho low down, the in- ! side info and other well known phrases which mean wha' were go- ing 10 tell you. The evening could have been better, oh much better, atmosph rically, While there was no static 10 speak of, there was q lot ot electrical Interference such aS that mentioned yesterday and there WIS also some fading. Western Ft4- lions didn't come in at all until after o'clock, when We heard one lone
 cprcscntatiye, WTAM, Cleveland. which burst upon our har4ssed ears
 like a cream puff dropped from L
 @o-story window.
 We discovered another dance or ch"s'ra. That simple phrase stands i IU" lot, and so lo We and so do you and so does santa Claus. if you
 don't mind our saying so, The or | chcstra we discovered was Joe Her l mans Lido Venice orchestra, and | We heard l. in dinner music from
 WNAC, Boston. The band is eXcep- 1 tional and Wa consider it one of the 1 hest on the air. The music is of i distinctly acrobatic type, that is. thp ! arrangements are so done that the musicians have t chance 10 display l their wares 10 a large extent while ] playing the rather cratic orches- | rations.
 i An cnJoyaUl" concert was pre-
 scented from WTIC by the Clcf Male i quartet Of this city and the Arcadia Ladies quartet Of Bristol. We didn't
 hear the entire program, hut wc
 heard enough 10 know that We i haven't heard anything as good in
 that line in long, long time, and
 that's saying something, considering ! he fact that there are thousands of l quartets on the air. The program
 was well balanced and the contrast
 between the voices of the men and
 those Of the women made the pro-
 gram doubly enjoyable. Of partiCu-
 lar interest was the rendition Of
 "Old Londonderry Air" by the com
 bined quartets. Leonard Nolk, well
 known pianist Of this city, contrib
 uted materially 10 the program by
 his remarkable accompaniments, and
 he sang baritone solo, Thank God
 For a Garden" We don't say all
 those things because some of the
 performers are from New Britain.
 If we thought the program wasn't so
 good we should have said so, and
 run the risk of being cracked over the head,

We didn't remain long, since our ed ucation along the lines ot opera has been sadly neglected, 8 fact which we shall mourn for at least i've min utos, WEEl, Boston, Was broadcast ing the SaXophone Octet from New York city, and we didn't stay there either for some reason or other, despite the fact that this organiza . ton has been known Co produce some excellent tones.

The only thing we didn't like about the station was the section of the program which was on the air when we joined. IL was Forest Week talk and We weren't in the mood. So We left.
 A remarkable soprano voice is possessed by Miss Davidson, We missed the first name, who present ed a program from WRNN, New York, last evening. You might know that would have to be remarkable betorc we'd pay much attention 10 it.. Properly, Miss Davidson Is a color atura soprano, We noted with as tonishment how well her voice reg istered and we feel that someone is 10 be complimented, were not sure just who, for the recital WRNY's s transmission is usually excellent, however, and We hope to hear Miss Davidson again. Very glad to have met you, Miss Davidson.
 And George Olsen and his Hotel Pennsylvania music and the Big Pink Checked Station Master, Nor IltU IAlUhtLSHlIt, anu ttpIst rIA t and all the old friends. were at WIZ for a program of entertain ment later in the evening, "ka- tinka," which was classified by Mir. Olsen as one Of the funny numbers vas sung by MT, Frye, and he near ly started riot on the dance floor, when the dancers refused to dance and clustered around the micro- phone while Frye's pleasant drawl was being recorded Could l?' Angel Face,' "Behind The Clouds and, Of course, Corn Fed Indiana Girl" were other numbers on the program brought to us by the Penn sylvania Special. Brokenshire was his usual genial self.
 WTAM's organ recital brought our evening 10 close. The station wasn't heard until 11:$0 o'clock, and then it burst in like artillery fire, although not quite so discor- dant. William Metcalf was at the console, and he showed us how well popular songs can be made to sound on one of the huge Instruments. Cottage Small by q Waterfall' was one.

Of work they can love and respect.
and in which there Is an opportunity
to grow to whatever fullness Is in
them.
1t 10 easy to see how much more
than just finding the hole for the
peg this means. 1t means study OF
The Individual; the changing of wrong
points OF view into right ones; the
adjustment, where possible, by CO.
operation with other agencies, OF In
furious home conditions--because the
child who leaves school before his edu-
cation is finished leaves because his
home has failed in some way to give
him his rightful heritage. 1t means
following him after he gets his place.
until it is certain that IT Is the one
that is best for him. 1t means send
ing him back to school with q

can be achieved. 1t means super
vision OF the service throughout the
country, so that the several mlllfon
children who are between IA and Il,
and asking for help, may have 1t in
the same degree.
Probably the best thing that can
be said of Miss Stewards aptitude
for such an undertaking Is that she
has understood life well enough not
to specialize too rigidly. For a spe-
cialist in human nature must be
many sided person. She did, to be
sure, the usual things in the way
of her own education: A. B. at the
University of Colorado; graduate
study at Chicago and Columbia; and
foreign travel But then she began to
diversity, and this Is how she did
it: Principal of the high school In
Longmont, Colo; dean of women, the
University Of Montana; staff writer
on the Sunday magazine Of the New
York World; organizer for the Ma
tional Republican committee. having
charge of the speakers bureau for
the Eastern States in the 1920 presi-
dental campaign. and speaking her
self; and then into the junior service
in 1921.
She is a poet as well: author of
a metrical translation of Catullus.
and Of much other verse and prose.
She helped to organize the National
Federation of Business and Profess
sional Women's Clubs and Is now
their legislative chairman. She is
trustee of the National Vocational
Guidance Association and of the
Southern Women's Vocational ALI
ance, and a member OF the National
Arts Club Of New York City, the
Poetry Society of America. the Gin
cinnati Business Womens Club, and
of the women's joint congressional
committee here in Washington.

Aprons may be divided into two
classes, practical aprons and novelty
aprons. To be sure, it is quite possible
for practical aprons to be decorative
and novelty aprons to be practical,
hut the purposes of the aprons are dis
tinctly different.
Under the classification of practical
aprons come all the bungalow and
kitchen aprons and even the dainty
fudge and tea aprons. 1t is when
touches of distinction are given aprons
that they become novelties, whether
they are kitchen aprons or dressy af-
fairs. And so today we find that the
especial apron to be described. while
distinctly a novelty article, belongs to
the kitchen variety just the same. 1t
is modification of the fitted apron,
only its fitting consists of but single
thing, and that Is holder.
Holder Apron.
A good name for this apron might
he holder apron. for a pocket is also
a sort of holder" and there 10 one
pocket on the right which balances
the holder for hot dishes and pans.
which is on the left. The holder is
fastened to the apron by a loop of
cord sewed to one corner of it, and
which slips over button sewed to the
apron. The button comes high enough
for the holder to hang in a correspond
ing position to that of the pocket.
While it Is possible to buy such
aprons either with or without the de-
signs being embroidered, it is also
possible for the woman who is handy
with her needle to make them. They
may be of any wash material, such
an gingham. chambray. unbleached
cotton cloth. linen. etc. and be trim
med or not, according to preference.
But to have them really attractive
they should be ornamental. Let me
describe one excellent style.

A Clean Throat.

When I say "clean throat" mean
one that is internally clean. You can
not be healthy If your throat is in
fected, for you will be continually

Grated in the throat. If you find your
self constantly swallowing and yet the
throat passages never seem TO clear,
or IL your tongue is always coated
though your digestion is good, If your
skin Is very bad and your general
health poor, you might quite likely
have a septic center here which should

But II the trouble Is not serious enough
for this try what home treatments
with antiseptic gargles will do TO. you.
Every morning when you have brush

diluted with warm water or little
salt dissolved in hot water, or with
any one Of the many good antiseptic
