prospect Of going back to that period
when inertia reigned in musical cir
cles and Washington had no stand
Ing as musical center was just too
dreadful to contemplate. The thought
that all the hopes, the work and
the enthusiasm which went into the
making of the symphony should count
for oanght seemed desperate situa-
tion. for 1t meant the end Of progress
and the death Of all aspiration toward
fashioning the Nations Capital into
. cultural center.
But in the rejoicing at the sue
cessful outcome of the orchestrs's
campaign for existence. one thing must
not be forgotten. The funds have
been provided for only another sea-
son. VIII we have to face this ques-
ton of its continued existence again
next year? It seems belittling, in a
measure, that SO much begging and
pleading should be necessary to keep
alive An organization which has proven
its value to the community and to the
country In general, as its outside con-
certs have shown. Why cannot some
plan be decided upon by which this
doubt of the future is removed and the
inclusion Of the National Symphony
in the city'S activities be an acknowl-
edged fact which must be provided
for?
Everything has been done that s
possible under the former campaign
plans, but surely there must be way
to obviate the strain and worry Of not
knowing what the outcome will be-
This Is something which should be
faced right at this time, when there Is
general satisfaction at the triumph Of
the present campaign. If the SYM
phony is worthy of the sacrifice made
this year, it should be accorded the
dignity Of sure support without eacn
season worrying as to the result Ct
another bid for funds Even in this
city much money is spent for less
worthy causes. A portion of this
might be donated AS nest egg for the
continued life OF the greatest musical
organization the city has ever had to
its credit.
FURTHER evidence of the atten-
ton being given to what can be
done musically in this city is the in
vitation extended to r. Deane Shure.
local composer, to write a symphony
for the Harrisburg. Pa, Festival to
be held in May, 1889 Mr.. Shure,
who has been identified with Wash

and whose choral, organ and SYM

wide recognition, is native Pennsyl-

eyes, or even blindness, soft" teeth, or the like.
 Ice cream has fewer calories and better distribution of calorieS in protein, fat, carbohydrate, than any typical dessert. In addition, its con- tribution in vitaminS and minerals is high. It is a fallacy. strongly en- trenched in the minds of many peo- pie, that ice cream is a rich dessert and that substantial meal should end with simpler, as well as less fattening sweet. Ice cream has only half as many calories and much bet ter food value than lemon mer- ingue pie, for example. The fact that ice cream, comparatively speaking, is not an unusually high calorie food is further proved by a study conducted at the University of Illinois in which ice cream was a part of a successful reducing diet.
 Nothing Radical
 Instead of trying radical 18-day diets, use pint of ice cream bran, and leafy salads with mineral oil dressing. The pint of ice cream will supply you with vitamin A, which builds up resistance against diseases and prevents eye trouble, vitamin B, which prevents such diseases as beriberi; vitamin c eff it happens to be fruit ice cream-StraWberry, in particular), which cures Scurvy; vitamin D, the sunshine" vitamin, which aids the body in utilizing cal- cium and phosphorus for proper bone and teeth formation and vita min G which cures pellagra.
 And further the ice cream in all its goodness, will aid in satisfying an appetite that is crying out against reduced food intake.
 After all. the principal drawback to reducing diet is the annoyance of staying on it. You will n1 ne bothered that way by using ice cream.

Dr. Kate Frankenthal
 Sharing Honors With Mrs. Beard, Authoress
Waterbury Sending Delegation to Annual State Meet ing in New Haven Saturday-Election of Officers
 Among Features of Business Session

Several local members will be in attendance at the annual meeting of the Connecticut State Federation of American Association of University Women Saturday in New Haven. Sessions will be held at the Institute of Human Relations at Yale univer- sity with the New Haven branch of the A. A. U. w., as hostess.
 The theme of the meeting will be University Women Consider the Present, Challenge the Future" Mrs. Beard to Speak
 Two Well-knoWn speakers will give the main address of the all-day ses- sion with Dr. Kate F'rankenthal speaking at the morning session, and Mrs. Mary R. Beard at the after noon session.
 Dr. Frankenthal was born in Kiel, Germany and was graduated from University Freidburg. During the war she was with the Austrian army at the front. She has had wide poli- tical experience serving as helath of- ficer in Berlin, Germany and since 1920 had been a member of the city parliament of Berlin. Since 1928 she had served as a member of the Prussian state parliament and was dismissed from this office in 1883 as an enemy of the state. In Prague, c. s. R. she was director of the emil grafton service of the Jewish com- munity. Dr. Frankenthal has been in this country since 1886. She is psychiatrist at the State Farm for Women in Mantle and is the author of several pamphlets.
 Mrs. Beard of New Milford is the author of several books on women, also of a short history of the Ameri- can labor movement and co-author of the Rise of the American Civili- zation.
 Mrs. Beard was invited by the alumnae of Mt. Holyoke to deliver the alumnae day address at the cen- tennial celebration of the college last May. She addressed the Ma tional Educational association in convention at Detroit last June. She led an open forum discussion at the convention of the A. A. U. w. last spring in Savannah.
 When her book, "On Understand ing Women" was published in 1881, Charlotte Perkins Gilman said that Mrs. Beard had "repopulated his- tory" and Mrs. Boards specially may be called the history of women Since college women are mostly taught only the history of men eX- cept as the story of a few queens crosses that line" the originality and force of her specially constitute a revolution in the thought of his- tory not yet accepted by seats of the higher learning. In general she pointed out that women have been humorists, another innovation. in a book called Laughing Their Way.
