opinion of Mr. Fyfe, is a slow process through

giving him a hobby in boys club.
Build more boys clubs and construct fewer

the piles and coiled in the chain that had
secured the boat. Charlie, whose so Summers
spent around the fishing grounds had made
him loose jointed and sun-tanned, was lovabe
but lonely character to the people of the fishing
town.
Jim Anderson. rangy blond boy in his
teens, who was sitting in the stern. leaned over
to side to give Charlie plenty of room for
his maneuverS.
ut certainly is swell of you Charlie taking
me out on an all-day fishing trip like thS!"
he exclaimed. Gee! I never thought you'd be

"Well," drawled Charlie, settling himself In
the middle of the boat, I figure if you hadn't
took sech good care of me when was laid out
with my side, I wouldn't be here to go on no
fishing trips at ALL
"Shucks! All I did was bring you something
to eat" said Jim. land clean up the place every

THE hot Southern glinted the clear

of the fishing reels. Steadily the boat chugged
farther from the low palm-fringed shore, on
its way to the fishing grounds among the man.
grove swamps Suddenly, above the sound OF
the motor, came a clear, high-ptched voice
from the shore
"Yoo-hoo! Yoo-hoo!" It was long drawn
out yodel.
Looking back. Charlie and Jim saw small
white figure standing on the end of the dock
they had just left 1t waved its arms in wide
circles.
who's that?" asked Charlie, puzzled
"My goodness! thought she'd forgotten by
this time!" exclaimed Jim, frowning. That's
Ellie Carmichael. She lives next door to me,
and has been worrying me to death to come
along with us today. I told her maybe but
knew on this trip we didn't want any girls
along"
Charlie twisted the wheel that guided the
boat, and headed it for shore.
"Of course, we do! If you told her maybe
she's goin' along young Teller! She knows how
to fish just as well as you dol"
Jim, bit crestfallen, agreed He didn't
mind having Ellie along. She was a good sport
and could fish as well any boy he knew,
but he had thought Charlie wouldn't want to
be bothered.
A S THE boat drew nearer the dock, they
could see Ellies white dress and yellow
hair ruff1ed by the breeze coming from the
bay She was looking down the other side
OF the dock, evidently talking to some one in a
boat. AS Charlie held his boat close to the
landing steps she called: well good-by. May
be we can do that some time!" Then she said
to Charlie and Jim: I'm surely glad you came
back for me! I've wanted to go out fishing to
the mangrOVe SWampS Tor ages.
Nov listen here Ellie" said Jim in father
ly tone, 'if you're going out fishing with US, you
can't talk and gable like you do when you're
home. It'll scare the fish away, won't it,
Charlie? And If you don't mind telling me, who
that you were talking to when we came
up?"
"oh that? That was Chad Hurst He
Just"
''Chad Hurst?" The man and the boy were
aghast.

preston that working in silent pic
lures did not necessitate q certain
amount Of serious study. It was
necessary to take the job seriously
and do ones best to succeed. but it
was the easiest method Of perform
ance ever devised for an actor.
The silent picture was entirely pic
torial and an actors problem was
simplified to the extent that he
thought entirely of Photographic re-
suits. Today, with talking pictures,
he must think of his lines as well as
the Photographic angle.
The actors work on the stage Is
difficult work In that 1t involves a
nervous tension that one does not
have to put up with on the screen.
Talking pictures are just plain, hard
work for the player.
There Is nothing comparable to ones
reactions on the opening night OF a
stage play. Then every one is nervous
and irritable. Friends hardly speak
before the curtain goes up. 1t Is a
horrible sensation. This feeling per-
sisted with me for the first three or
four nights, but after that the strain
became less great and I really en-
joyed the work This feeling Of en-
joyment with your work lasts until
the play is well into the seventh or
eighth week.
At this time there follows a recur-
renee Of the stage nerves. This is
due to the fact that an actor sudden
ly realizes that he is speaking his lines
mechanically, like parrot. His men
tai apparatus has become detached
from the part, and it is only when
his intelligence begins to work that he
suddenly realizes he is not conscious
of what he Is saying This realiza-
ton may dawn upon him when he Is
in the middle of scene.
1t is a horrible feeling to have this
happen. A player has utterly no idea
of what he is doing, nor why. Every
thing Is gone, completely! This is
what is known as blowing up" If
the play has a long run, this may
happen several times. The constant
nervous shocks that one encounters
on the stage make it the most men
tally torturing of any type Of the
atrical work.
Talking pictures demand a great
amount Of concentration and hard
work on the part of the actor. 1t is
far more difficult than making silent
pictures. 1t is tedious job working
a scene over and over until every
thing is properly done. So many
mechanical things must coordinate

TUESDAY EVENING CLUB
GIVES ANNUAL RECITAL
Group Directed by Florence How
ard Heard at the University
Club Last Night.

A delightful program of Christmas
music was given last evening at the
University Club by the Tuesday Eve
ming Music Club, Florence Howard,
director; Marjorie Davis, accompanist.
and Evelyn Scott, violinist. The con-
cert was arranged by the Entertain
ment Committe, of which Lewis
Moneyway is chairman, for ladies
night" at the club. Mrs. Howard and
her group of singers have given similar
programs at this season in other years,
the musicians appearing in the cos
TUNES of "Merrie England" and carry
ing out the traditions of that country
in the singing of the carols. The
backdrop by Hugo linden, with tall
lighted Christmas tree at each side,
made fitting setting for the singers,
several coming into the dimly lighted
room singing and carrying lighted
candles, and others joining them as
they sang an old French carol,
GLORIA" Miss Scott played a violin
obligato.
The group of singers have youthful,
fresh voices and sing with excellent
intonation and good diction. Mrs.
Howard deserves much credit for the
delicate shading and the well-balanced
ensemble, bringing out the various
parts where they are the most effec-
tive. THE Birds Praise the Advent
of the Saviour" Catalan carol OF the
fifteenth century, arranged by Schind-
Ter after a setting by Millet, was one
of the effective numbers of the pro-
gram. Immediately following and in
marked contrast was Clarence Dickin-
sons THE Shepherds Story" In this
number stirring climaxes were reached
and none of the rich harmony in the
part singing was lost. Mozart's IA
nous "Alleluiah' chorus was well
done, the florid passages clear and
the shading and variety marked.
There were other carols on the pro-
gram from Czechoslovakia and White
Russia, as we'll as numbers appropriate
to the Christmas season. The Incl
dental solos were sung by Barbara
Murray, Myrtle Barnes, Alice Sherrer,
Ina Holtzscheiter, Catherine Gross,
Helen Neumeyer Perry, Frances
Tucker, Irene Wetzell and Laura Lyle.
Miss HoltZscheiter sang Rejoice
Greatly" from Handel's THE Mes
siah," and Miss Perry gave a group of
German Christmas songs, closing with
the famous "Stille Nacht, Heilige
Nacht" in which she invited the audi
ence to join her in singing the first
verse in English after she sang the
first two verses in German. 1t was a
gracious act and thoroughly enjoyed
by the large company which filled the
lounge at the club.
Miss Scott played three short solos
in the middle of the program, all en-
Enthusiastically received. To Miss Davis
belongs much credit for good ac-
compartments in both the solo num-
bers and the ensemble.
The singers left the stage walking
down the aisle and out of the room
singing the old French carol Gloria"
with violin obligato. K. B.

CHRISTMAS MUSIC
AT THE ARTS CLUB
Choral Group Entertains With
Special Numbers Appropriate
to the Holiday Season.
BY ALICE EVERSMAN.


The annual Christmas concert at
the Arts Club brought the club mem
bers and friends together in a cele-
bration in which a devotional spirit
was emphasized. The choral group
of the club, Otto Torney Simon, di-
rector, with Margaret Tolson at the
piano, gave a program of chorus
from Handers Messiah" group of
sacred Christmas songs, finishing
with the Handels 'Hallelujah
Chorus"
In a short address in which he
thanked the various members Of the
club for their cooperation in making
the chorus success, Mr.. Simon
asked that the audience realize the
religious meaning of the texts of the
numbers and assist at their rendi-
tion in such a spirit. The program
was arranged progressively to lead
to the moment when the tree would
be lighted as the symbol of universal
light. The audience was then asked
to join the chorus in singing the two
Christmas hymns, 20, Little Town
of Bethlehem" and Holy Night"
The soft restrain rendition of these
beautiful Christmas numbers by the
audience and performers was impress
sive. The singing o; the choral num-
bers was done in the same spirit,
without effort, and leaving the beauty
own effect.
The selections sung by the chorus
were: "And the Glory of the Lord
Shall Be Revealed. His Yoke Is
Easy and His Burden Light" 20
Thou That Tellest Good Tidings to
Zion, GLORY to God,' For Unto Us
Child Is Born" from The Mes
siah"; There Shall q Star Come
Forth" from Mendelsohns "Christus"
Praetorius' 10, How a Rose Fer
Blooming" and the 'Hallelujat
Chorus"
Led by the mood with which Mr.
Simon infused his conducting, deeply
religious feeling not only was felt in
the singing, but in the attention oi
the auditors, uniting all present In
a true Christmas spirit. Two piano
numbers by Margaret Tolson were in
terpolated, her playing of the Pas
toral Symphny," from The Messiah,
and a piano arrangement of the Bach
Gounod Ave Marie" sustaining the
impressive atmosphere which Mr.. ST.
mon created. An effective interpre-
tation Of text and music, the concert
was an ideal preparation for the COM
ing holiday.
