There was singing last night
at the Mt. Pleasant Congrega.
tional Church when the A Ca.
pella Choir of Northland Col
lege under the direction of Sig
vart j. Steen mounted the choir
loft.
It was singing that cannot be
described by such expressions as
marvellous, beautiful nuances, T."
"elat," etc. These young Scan
dinavians were not bridled by
any repreSsions that would cause
them to give more attention to
the position of the tonsils than
to singing-they sang!
Coming out Of the great North.
west with little heraldry, this
choir composed of 40 young
voices, % of them freshmen,
selected from a total enrolment
of 200 students, gave a recital
of sacred music that can scarcely
be equalled in America unless by
the older A Capella Choir OF st.
Olaf College. =.
That Mr.. Steen has learned well
from Melius Christensen, the o.
rector of the famed St. Olaf or
ganization, was much in evidence.
Seldom are heard such deep eX-
pressions of praise on the part of
so many in the audience who ad-
mitted no musical training. At
least one cynical music critic was
moved to tears several times by
the sheer beauty of the ensemble
effect.
The choir was we'll balanced
with nine or 10 voices in each Sec
ton. A couple of the BASES that
were as deep voiced as the tradi-
tional Russian bass, gave reSo'
nance to a section that is seldom
heard, nor did the sopranos at any
time overpower the other sections.
Music that lifts one from the
commonplace worries Of life to a
high spiritual pinnacle can only
be heard to be appreciated. For
tunate indeed are those who will
be privileged to hear this choir to-
night at the D. A. r. convention
at Constitution Hall.
Mr.. Steen produces emotional
results with a good technical type
Of direction. No one is ever in
doubt as to when to start or stop.
He uses a baton and does not per
NIT his arms to be concealed
under any flowing robes. He does
not need this badge of distinction
when the choir is once heard.
In the presentation of Glinka's
"Cherubim Song" the voices
could scarcely be heard in the
opening pianiSsimo strain, Like
choir Of mighty angels, Solemn
bending low the knee" which
gradually resolved into an even
crescendo and back to the pianis-
simo on a sustained tone.
Even the clinking Of the offer
ing coins could scarce divert the
listener as they sang "Midnight'S
solemn hour is tolling," from
wake, Awake" by Nicolai. The
freshness of the voices and com
plete subsection to the will of the
director produced results that can.
not be bought. It is a labor of
love.

By WILLIAM T. McCLEERY v NEW YORK, Sept. 7.--Jean Roth, who makes living by posing for Seulptors and painters, considers it immodest for a girl not to wear a slip with a sheer dress.
 Tal, exquisitely proporiioned, she '. is representative of hundreds of girls whose physical beauties are :. chiseled in marble or daubed on canvas by rather temperamental 1. persons who pay them $5 for three hours or $10 day.
 Jean is 20 years old, lives alone in a one-room apartment and en- joys her work because the people she meets seem glamorous and she ~ feels she contributes something "mayoe one -fiftieth"-to what her artist-employers produce. She is known as the sweet and innocent ' type.
 Self Conscious At First When she first posed in the nude it was two years ago, for sculp- fe~ in Palm Beach-she felt self conscious. Now it's all in a days work. although she declines to pose .. for artists whose looks she doesn't " like.
 Once she was posing for an il- illustrator who wanted to paint a |. laughing girl, and after sitting for five minutes in sustained mirth she !. came through with well- l-developed ' yawn. Furious, the artist loped across the studio, shook paint brush in her pretty face and cried:
 "Ho! You don't have any trouble smiling for your stupid friends at cocktail parties. No. You can smile all day for them But for me you

THE SUSPENDED GEORGIA PREACHER

The news agencies and many newspapers regard
the suspension of Georgia pastor; who cam
pagned for liquor in the recent repeal campaign,
as front page stuff 1t seems to us that they have
the wrong cat by the tail If he had not been sus-
pended that would have been big news worthy of
front page space on metropolitan dailies. For no
Methodist preacher can drink liquor, sell liquor,
make liquor or aid and abet in any of these things
without violating the laws of the church. Such has
been the rule from the beginning of Methodism.
This is so we'll known that nobody ever offers a
Methodist preacher drink if he knows that ne is
Methodist minister Nor does any we'll Informed
man expect to find Methodist preacher otherwise
than opposed to the entire business in every shape
and form.
Why the special interest in the of a man
who has violated the law of his church? Some
local church court will care for the case as the
law requires, and that will be the end OF it.
AS to whether people like the ways of the Meth
odst church, or not, is an entirely different mat
ter At this point the Methodist church is very
accommodating. 1t has always had two doors, one
to come in and one to go out and both of these
doors are in constant USE 1t can however, be said
that the nclinatons and judgment of the Ameri-
can people has led 100000 more in than have
gone out Furthermore any preacher who chooses
can drink liquor, can make liquor can sell liquor,
or can aid and abet in these things, if he so
chooses, but he must get out of the Methodist
church to do it, This rule has proven satisfactory
to most Methodists, even if Old John Barleycorn
is not in sympathy with laws of the Methodist
church.-N. C. Christian Advocate.

A MYSTERY INDEED

The Greenwood Index-Journal is mystlneu ny
the practice of some radio fans whose machlheS
are turned on at full blast repeatedly to the an
noyance of neighbors. The Index wonders how the
people in the house can stand it, and this has often
occurred to many others.
Concerning the practice, the Greenwood paper
has the following timely comment:
Three hundred yards away in private residence
a radio is blaring away in such loud and distinct
tones that every word can be heard. How the peo-
pie in the house itself can stand it is beyond COM
prehension.
And what is it that is being heard?
For fifteen minutes some gentleman IN Char-
1otte has been reeling off the stock and cotton
market quotations at the noon hour.
OF what earthly interest are these names ana
fonres to the people in the house? Not single
soul there owns share of any stock or ever
bought cotton contract-if so, then all this is
taken back but we feel reasonably safe on the
assertion.
If YOU own radio, do have some consideration
for other people.
You can hear just as we'll if the thing is toned
down and you will cause your neghbors to rise
up and call you blessed if you will do that.
One case reported recently may, in part, explain
this sort of nuisance. This case is that of lady
who likes to work out in her flower yard and at
such times turns on the radio "full' so that she
can hear it out in the yard. That her neighbors
may not share her delight does not seem to occur
to her-Anderson IS. c. Record.

ILLUSION STREET

Readers of "Sartor Resartus" will remember
that Professor Teufelsdroeckh, who held the chair
of Thngs-n- General in the University of Nobody
Knows Where, dwet in garnet in Illusion Street.
How many of us are today living in Illusion
Street? We are surrounded by clouds Of preju-
dice, by mists of tradition and convention,
buried in dust storms of propaganda How seldom
we penetrate the realities of life!
There is the illusion that happiness depends on
our circumstances We must have prosperity, Sc
curity, comfort We suppose that the possession of
things will satisfy hearts We must have posi-
ton, or power We must go places and see things
Forever we trying to rest in externals forget
ting that so long as we take ourselves with into
the midst of our possessions and privileges, these
things cannot change our hearts give peace.
There is the illusion that slogans and dogmas,
or programs and platforms or revolutions and re-
forms, will rebuild civilization usher in Utopia
As II legislation could destroy greed and selfish
ness or dictatorship annul the effects of sloth and
moral apathy, of blindness and human folly!
All these things have to do with the externals
of life. They cannot affect the heart and soul Of
mankind. "Seek We first the kingdom of Gcd
and His righteousness and all these things shall be

Ihe State of South Carolina has more murders
according to population than either Chicago or

compiled by DR.. Croft Williams, professor of soc

the university professor reveal that the states rate
is Ia murders to every 100000 population, while
that IN Chicago is IL, and New York only eight
The rate is almost twice that of the nation as
whole, which is seven and one-half to every 1OO,-

and considered the number of 'electrocutions for

WHERE IS MOTHER?
By WICKES WAMBOLDT

that mother is at home suggests
a heaven of refuge. To know
that mother is not at home and
won't be until she has to go
there to eat or sleep, inclines
children toward some other form
and place of solace.
Young people can not cut the
ties of home so long as mother is
there. No matter where they
wander or what they do, she
holds them with an invisible and
unbreakable bond which draws as
irresistibly as the sun lifts mois
ture toward the heavens.
The pull of home is the strong
est in the world. But there can
be no pull without mother there.
The old home with mother in. it
has drawn many son or daugh-
ter from ten thousand miles of
dissipation. No apartment house
with mother at the movies or on
a ioy-ride tver did that.
The great American home is in
somewhat of a mess about now.
because too many mothers carry
motherhood as a sideline and
work at it only when nothing
else is doing.
However their example is edu
cational, for their sons and
daughters having missed the
mother and home comfort so
much needed, will no doubt give
to their children what they them
selves were deprived Of. Just as
a woman denied a piano educa
ton lavishes such instruction or
her daughter, so the home and
mother starved young people of
this generation may bestow the
blessing they missed, in all its
fullness on their own children.
