GAY MUSIC NOW
SPEEDS TOURISTS
Cold Grand Central Echoes
Lively Tunes as Trains
Pull Out.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, February 22.-Music
hath a charm to soothe the traveller, 1t
developed this week, so the impresarios
of Grand Central Terminal are en-
barking on an ambitious musical pro-
gram that might do justice to Gatti-
CazaZza.
The selections decorating through
the hollow marble concourse are trans
portational as well as inspirational,
and involve the services of "red cap"
band, w. P. A. orchestra, child
choristers and pipe organ. whose
melodies are piped in by remote
control.
c. w. Y. Currie of the New York
Central System is pretty happy about
the whole business; says it marks the
beginning of an era of "humanizing"
Grand Central Terminal-the cross
roads of the world.
The latest addition to the Grand
Central Terminal repertoire is the pipe
organ amplifler, which gave forth its
first careless rapture this week over
the heads of thousands of startled
long distance travellers and commuters.
Sirenlike Rapture.
at was great to see the way they
stopped and listened" said Currie. I'VE
played Garry Me Back to Ole Virginny'
for them-you know there are lot
of Southerners in New York. Well they
just stood around and stood around
and the next day we got about a
hundred telephone calls telling us to
cut it out because the telephones had
missed their trains. They couldn't pull
themselves away"
But the Grand Central maestros
didn't cut it out.
Flushed with success they made the
organ recital nightly feature.
Although the organist can handle
Chopin and List, he usually tries to
make his programs appropriate. If a
train is leaving for the West he plays
california Here I Come" and he
was inspired to render the Skaters
Waltz" while snow train was dis
gorging passengers and skis.
'They all cheered," said Currie.
Idea Expanded.
The idea really was terminated sew
eral years ago when in holiday mood
the Grand Central fathers hired some
carol singers to speed the homeward-
bound passengers on Christmas eve.
The railroad people began to realize
they'd got something. They found out
that right under their noses they had
a band made up of red caps in the
terminal So they tried them out and
had them play as famous trains pulled
out. A little confusion was caused by
the reluctance of some members Of the
band to pass up good portering tips at
train time to tootle horn, but they
got it worked out
Then came the w. P. A. Orchestra
"a fine body of artists" Currie said,
and they, too, became fixture, play
ing gay little tunes at odd hours.
Plan May Spread.
Girl choristers are hired occasionally
when there's something special go
ing on.
buI tAe organ Is LIE piece uS
resistance. The railroad is now toying
with the idea of bringing music to its
terminals in other cities.
How does the audience feel about all
this gratuitous music? Currie picked
letter off his desk.
The author referred to himself as a
slowly commuter," and wrote:
1T sort of makes you feel you have
done great days work and everything
is right In the world"

LONDON TO Ferem1t Exlts Only

LONDON, February 22.-Fencing Of
footpaths will shortly be tried out on
q big scale in London.
For some time fencing has been in
use as an experiment at a number Of
functions and the result has been so
encouraging that 1t has now been de-
cided to fence a three-nile stretch Of
road in the East End, probably along
Whitechapel road, Mile End road and
Bow road.
Gaps will be provided for pedes-
TRANS to cross. and each Of these

Feminine Influence
Still Is Evident.

The women-God bless 'em-have
secured many rights Of citizens during
the past two decades and in industry,
politics and business are holding many
positions formerly occupied by men,
but no matter to what freedom they
have graduated, there is always visible
something OF the eternal feminine
about them In their conduct of affairs.
On entering an Office, whether IN
the Government or in the outside
business world, one is Immediately
aware if the occupant be a woman,
for the domestic instinct is always
visible in the arrangement and the
small personal touches with which Sne
surrounds herself Now, Mrs. Shlpley
is not an exception to the rule. Her
charming old office overlooks the ex-
ecutive Offices of the White House and
the south grounds. She says her eye
Is always on the lovely manSion-not
that she expects to be a successor to
the present occupant if the time ever
comes for petticoats to occupy the
chair of state, but that there is
restfulness in the scene that is sooth
ing
Facing her desk is an enormous
Victorian pier glass framed in walnut,
which reflects the landscape as well
as the visitor to whom she is talking,
and on one side over an old mahog-
any bookcase is a beautiful Oriental
rug she found when snooping around
the building. AS matter of fact, she
says any antique she may have was
simply discard from some executive
office, One or two exquisite colored
etchings and Autographs presented to
her by the artist. Arlent Edwards,
hang near her desk. One of the love-
lest is colored etching of the head
of "Saska," which reveals all the
witchery of her elusive countenance.
