teur cellist, and her Polish mother
gave up a singing career to rear a
family. Her fathers cello is used
in the orchestra today.
In the public library is perma-
nent collection of the orchestra's
music, dedicated to Mr.. tWocher.
1t is for schools, orchestras, and
individuals to borrow.
Mrs. Woollen sings because the
arias have stories to tell and not
because of an artist-instinct to eX-
press her talent. Her voice is 'un-
trained, but critics laud its finish
and its power.
Il never force myself out of an
easy range" she conf1ded. why
should 1 strain to reach note
when my voice on that particular
occasion isn't modulated for it?"
Her most recent appearance as
a singer was in Washington this
spring, when she was presented
by Mrs. Walter Tuckerman and
Mrs. Hamilton La Mari, two social
leaders.
At the National Woman's Coun-
try Club she sang before hundreds
of the national capitals celeb
rites. Ministers from foreign
countries with musical back
grounds, nobility, and Washing
tons socially elite assembled to
hear Indianapolis soprano.
MRS. WooLLEN noted one
AVA dignitary cycling her criti-
cally through his monocle. He
edged to the door, apparently
planning hurried escape if the
program we're too unbearable.
I'm going to make you like this
program" she said to him in her
mind. She'd already. set her
stage. She'd chosen the gown
suitable for the theme Of the col
lection of arias. She'd arranged
the candles to cast the most fiat
tering lights.
She opened the group with
"Lascia Chic Tianga,' by Han
del, which inevitably preludes her
selections. She sang directly to

Of The National Prayer" which
she recently harmonized for Louis
St. Claire and dedicated TO Presi-
dent Franklin D. Roosevelt. She
wants the President to hear it and
accept it as a national hymn. She
is determined that the first song
ever dedicated to President
shall be a success.
One of her forebears, Prince
EsterhaZy. was a friend and pa
trOn of Beethoven. She is friend
and patroness of the Indiana
Symphony Society and all musical
culture.
What are the people to do with
the increasing amount of leisure
time to be theirs?" she ponderS.
There's no better way to enrich
it than to fill it with the spiritual
influence Of music"
What does she do about her
conviction? Just talk and trust
that men eventually will find their
way?" She plans a campaign and
personally directs the membership
committee in its efforts to OBJ
tain subscribers.
"THE orchestra. which Ferdi-
Il nand Schaefer started and
continually has directed, was the
first cooperative group Of its kind
in the country" explained Mrs.
Woollen, as she described her
early plans for her third years
af1liation with the project.
There's not much left for the
musicians after all the expenses
are paid from the subscription
fund, she continued. $50 it makes
their work a sort of labor of
love.
Already Mrs. Woollen has OBJ
tanned a famous speaker for the
booster dinner preceding the
opening of the campaign on Oct.

lebrity with an unexpected inter-
est in music.
The first year the orchestra
managed alone, but for the last
three years the society has spon-
sored the subscription campaign.
Again this year the orchestra will
be presented in five adult and
five children'S concerts.

In other words, you need to set an
attainable goal for yourself, instead
of striving to identify yourself with
your sister.
Dear Jane Jordan-Here is an
other letter from Wondering Joe.
In your answer to my last ques-
ton, you said my girl was smarter
than l am, because she repealed
my advances. Don't you think
that is a bit old-fashioned? Sup
pose every one took your advice.
Where would this world be?
When she read your answer, it
seemed to turn her against me.
During the two years that we
have gone together she has prom
ised me several times, but always
backed out at the crucial moment.
Some fellows would have forced
her, but did not I merely told
her that maybe she didn't love me
enough.
Now I think that after two
years of companionship, in which
1 have given her everything she
wants, and taken her to all the
places she wanted to go that she
should show her love for me by
doing what I want. I love her
like no six people, but she doesn't
believe me.
WONDERING JOE.
Answer think the world would
be a lot better off if every very
young girl was as smart as yours
is No wonder you love her like no
six people, and you will continue to
do so as long as she leaves so much
to be desired.
All too often young mans
ecstasy dies down as soon as his
desires are Stacked, whereupon he
discovers that he was in love with
his own qualification and not
the girl.
II all girls had as much of the
Doubling Thomas in them as your
girl has, there would be fewer
broken hearts. She knows full well
that she is not old enough or wise
enough to support a free love ex-
perience. Her environment is
against her All society is against
her. Intuition tells her she can't
count on you for permanence.
Your attitude is entirely selfish.
You aren't thinking of the girls
welfare at all, but just your own.
Boys and girls, have you any ad-
vice for Wondering Joe? I rather
like the fellow, he's so honest. Right
out in the open with his desires,
isn't he? But I'm betting on the

Just six months ago she began
piano lessons. She spends hours
in her music room, playing The
songs that she relives. Even as
she plays records of her singing

moods she hears her voice portray.
One admiring friend complained
to her, "You could be a great OPP

salon; you could"

interrupts. But if I we're, you

YEAR
FINANCIAL SUCCESS
President Told Proceeds of
Event Will Exceed Costs
to Government.

Members of the George Was aShington
Bicentennial Commission, meeting at
the White House today, informed Presi-
dent Hoover, their chairman, that the
proceeds from the activities of the BIZ
centennial year will greatly exceed the
actual Federal cost of the celebration.
Representative Sol Bloom, director of
the commission, declared that the body
can wind up its work within the original
appropriation made by Congress. From
the sale CT the serieS of commemorative
stamps and stamped envelopes he re-
ported that the Post Office Department
had derived approximately S1,000.00O.
He said also that the definitve writing
of Washington, which will be embodied
in about 25 volumes, will be sold in
sufficient amounts to defray the entire
cost Of the edition, which Is about
S400,000, with a comfortable margin of
profit.
Some of the stamp collectors have
estimated that the sale Of the stamps
and stamped envelopes eventually will
reach as high as $1,000 000
The commission has as yet only
made preliminary estimates. SO that

the Ricentennial activities. After all ex-
penses have been betrayed, however,
Mr.. Bloom declared the final report
will show that the year of celebration
has not actually cost the Government
a cent.
The sale of more than 1000 900
stamps benefits the Post Office De-
partment directly and the sales of the
definitive writings are being conducted
by the Government Printing Office
President Hoover warmly expressed
his thanks to the commission as we'll
as his appreciation for the splendid
service it rendered during the year.
