The trip over was delightful, but
%uneventful. There we're p~rincesses
aboard, and countesses, and any
number of dukes. They Travelled
with maids and various servants.
And the women looked weary and
tired. and wore countless jewels with
supreme indifference.
The Conte Bioncamano was a
floating palace, and presently Molly
began to feel as if she had been
born to a life of ease and luxury.
Her bath was bigger than her own
kitchenette and hall and bathroom
put together. Her room had two
beds. and a dressing table with full
length mirror. The ~steWardeSs
brought her fresh flowers every day,
and waited upon her so aSsiduously
that it was almost like having a
maid of her own.
Molly spent the mornings in the
gymnasium. because the instructor.
who had volunteered to teach her
fencing. was the best looking man
on board.
"I1l use him in a story sometime, -
she decided.
After luncheon she wrote each
day for two hours Then it was
tea-time. and tea on deck was
served from silver services. Ices
and pastries, and champagne cup.
Afterward she went to the movies,
or played deck games
At dinner time there were many
rare dishes. PheasantS in gleaEl-
ing panoplv were carried into the
dining room. with their heads high
and their. tails sweeping proudly.
When their feathers were whisked
away. their tender little bodies,
eril!ed to perfection, reposed on
toasted bread.
Molly sat alone in the dining
room. but a~fterward. in the music
room. she drank coffee while the
others had liqueurs. And, because
she was young and pretty and alone,
she received a great deal of atten-
ton, and many invitations to dance
In the grand italian ballroom, or to
stroll about the quiet white deck.

Many days and nights Kala sat

The gorilla tore the foh at the

the long, sharp blade. Then the

Lord Greystoke, rolled lifeless upon
the ground.

Kerchak, the king ape, was strongly
opposed to sending assistance. He had

But Kala was of a different mind.
She fairly flew through the matted

PAGEANT TO OPEN
CHEST CAMPAIGN
Preparations Are Under Way
for Presentation at May
flower on January 28.

Signalling the opening of the 1880
Community Chest campaign, pageant,
under direction Of Mrs. Marie Moore
Forrest, will be given January % at
the Mayf1ower Hotel.
Mrs. Forrest, director of drama and
pageantry Of the Community Centers'
department of the public schools, has
the cooperation of all organizations
affiliated with the Community Chest.
The pageant was written by Frank Baer,
dramatic critic and writer of Washing
ton, and preparations for the presenta-
ton now are under way.
Campaigns Show Increase.
A $1,250,000 increase in donations
over last year had been shown in re-
ports from 100 Community Chest cam
paigns completed so far this year, &C.
cording to Allen T. Burns of New York,
executive director of the Association Of
Community Chests and Councils.
Optimism pervades those cities
where campaigns are projected" Mr.
Burns said. Not one of them cut the
1880 budget, and nearly all increased
the budget. The country as a whole
is expected to give $50, ZOO, 900 to Com
munity Chest and similar funds during
the Fall and Winter months. This
leaves $4,000, 900 yet to be raised in the
coming campaigns, and so strong is the
optimism In the remaining cities. in
Guiding Washington, that I am certain
the amount needed will be oversub-
scribed."

COLLEGE FACULTY RECITAL.


The Washington College of Music pre-
sented the second of the seaS1n's faculty
series of programs in the rSH college
buildings Friday night.
Mabel Duncan, cellist, and Nelson
Oertel, pianist, assisted by Fanny Am
stutz Roberts at the piano for Miss Dun
can, played a program unusual In many
Of its aspects.
The opportunity for a hearing of the
Beethoven Cello Sonatas" is rare. and
the performance given the "Op. SO" by
Miss Duncan and Mrs Roberts was I'M
usual in the completeness OF ensemble
and the intelligent Interpretation given
the various movements. Three numbers
from the "Funf Stuvke in Volkston," by
Robert Schumann, were also OF interest
because seldom heard. They offer con-
trast in moods, the "VanitaS Varri-
torium," with its brusque outline, fol-
lowed by melodious and harmonically
warm second piece; No. 4 Of the set,
represents Schumann in virile rhythmic
mood, all of which requisites were met
by Miss Duncan. 1870.
Miss Duncan's last group, consisting
of Peppers Spanish Dance" and
"Idylle," by Ethel Barnes, the English
woman. and Davidoff's "Am SPRING
brunnen" was enthusiastically received
with particular admiration for the viz
tuosity in the bowling of the DavidoR
number.
Mr.. Oertel newcomer to Washing
ton. set fine standard Of performance
for himself. He is follower Of Raphael
Joseffy, studying with this master at
the time OF his death.
The dramatic moods of the Chopin
"Preludes No. 20, and 49," were imme-
diately convincing; the "Etude OPP. 10,
No. g." the intricate and heroic 'Noc-
turne OPP. AZ, No. /" and the waltz
OPP. "a, No. /" we're accorded readings
which disclosed Mr.. Oerteps sense of
tradition and yet held an infusion Of
vitality of refreshing quality.
He later played an exquisite JoSeffy
arrangement Of the Pergolesi Nina, "
followed by David Guion's Turkey in
the Straw" The List "Camnanella "
