miniature court. She had not
drawn near the count, but across
the room Judy saw the eyes of the
two meet, laugh together, ac-
knowledge the situation, and share
an appreciation Of life-its daring,
its intrigue, it's blondes and it's
mad quest for pleasure.
Marjorie saw that glance, too.
It made her a little ill. She had
felt that way ever since she had
first greeted the representative of
European royalty tonight. In two
years Marjorie had learned much.
She was able to analyze that
month by the Adriatic sea very
clearly. She had been in girls
schools in Switzerland, France,
Italy and New York most Of her
life, before her mother left her at
the Lido that magic month. She
did not believe in the reality OF
love because she had witnessed it's
disappointments so repeatedly.

and other churches in Washington
ring out glad tidings there will be
at least one person in the city in
whose memory the bells of the old
Metropolitan Memorial Church on
John Marshall place will ring.
In fancy, Mr.. Richard H. john
ston, librarian, Bureau of Railway
Economics, Association of American
Railroads, and formerly bell ringer
at the old Metropolitan Church, will
climb the tower, and how he will
make the bells ring out!
Thinking back. he says that bells
in those days were not easy to play,
and often his hands we're numb
with cold from pulling the ropes.
Another thing I had to contend
with" he remarked, was the pres
ence of large bats and pigeons in
the tower, that seemed to think
the tower and bells were built espe-
cially for them.--Each day I had
to chase them away, usually with an
old tennis racket, kept close at
hand"
But the joy received from playing
the bells far outweighed the incon-
veniences, Mr.. Johnston said. "Presi-
dent Mckinley, who attended serv-
ices at the Metropolitan, thoroughly
enjoyed the chimes and often ex-
pressed his pleasure at hearing them.

The ladies in charge of the

Miss Sarah Brooke, Miss Ella Cum

like her father. has a mind for the

judge sat in awe and reverence until
the music ceased. Before his death
he requested that play the chimes
at his funeral, and when the Judge
passed on the old butler climbed the
tower and handed me $40 gold
piece his faithful master had left

The tower and the chimes at the
old Metropolitan were dedicated on
Thanksgiving Day, 1871. The chimes
were the gift of several individuals,
among them Julia Dent Grant, who,
with President Grant, attended serv-
ices there during his administration.
Each bell is inscribed with the name
of the donor, and some of them with
appropriate quotations from the
Scripture.
A fine set of Westminster chimes
is found in the Lincoln Memorial
Tower of the New York Avenue Pres
byterian Church. The largest of the
bells bears this inscriptions: ITO the
glory of God, in memory of Abraham
Lincoln, who worshipped in this
church while President of the United
States. The set of bells was pre-

There was no confusion or dis

rection. They are played at $50
and 10:45 am. each Sunday; $50
and 1890 am Christmas day. and
at II pm. on Christmas Eve and
New Year Eve.
The chimes for this 143-year- old
church, where Monroe Jefferson
and Madison attended services, were
installed in May of this year. They
were given in memory of Alton P.
White by his widow and sons and the
organ console and the amplifiers in
the church steeple are in memory of
James and Ella H. Berry, who were
devoted to the parish.
Out on Sixteenth street the mod
ern chimes in the tower of the
church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day
Saints are ringing today. The
chimes were installed in 1888 and
are part of the organ equipment.
The set of tubular chimes in the
bell tower of the Little Sanctuary in
Washington Cathedral Close were
installed in 1907, the gift of Mr.. and
Mrs. George S. Bowdoin of New
York City, in memory of Fannie
BoWdoin and Fannie Hamilton
Kingsford.
The chimes are played daily by
volunteers from students of St.
Albans, the National Cathedral
School for Boys. No special musical
knowledge is necessary, as there are
eight bell ropes and the chimes are
played not by notes. but by numbers.
The playing of the chimes is under
the general direction of Stephen A.
Hurlbut, instructor at st. Adams
School, who is a noted hymnologist.
They are played at $50 am. and
Sis pm. before chapel services in
the Little Sanctuary. At the present
there are five or six chimes ringers
who alternate their services.
A chime ringers prize is awarded
yearly to the volunteer who has been
most faithful to his duties and dis
played the greatest amount of abil-
ty in the ringing of the chimes.
The pulling of the ropes by the
students at Mount st. Albans is
reminiscent of the Society of COL
hge Youths" an organization in
England said to have been founded
on November S. 1887, and probably
the oldest existing company of
chime ringers. Dick Wilmington
who turned again" at the sound of
st. Mary-le-Bow's bells, to be thrice
Lord Mayor of London, is credited
with starting English gentry to ring
ing with a zeal that has never
abated.
The important part which the
church bell has played in the lives
of Catholics throughout the world
is perhaps best shown by the num-
ber of ways in which bells are used
at the internationally known Fran
ciscan Monastery.
Here chimes call the people to
worship before all principle services,
which, of course, accounts for their
ringing out today to commemorate
! the birth of Christ.

ANNUALEVENTNOW INSTITUTION
Initial Celebration for Children Was Held 1885, With Enthusiastic
Citizens Giving Aid to New and Unprecedented Assembling
of Guests for Feast and Entertainment

In two weeks time after the start
had been made offers of assistance
were pouring into The Star Office
and to the several Christmas club
committees. The Union Veteran
Corps rendered its armory. then in
Masonic Hall, but a similar offer
having been received from the Ma
tional Rifles. and accepted, the
offer of the Veteran Corps was not
accepted. Ed. Abner. the restaura-
teur, not only offered his hall on
E street, between Seventh and
Eighth streets, gratis, but also agreed
to supply all the service for the fes-
tival free of expense to the club.
O. G. Staples, then proprietor of
Wizards Hotel. rendered the use of
the Willard Hall, which stood to the
west of the southwest corner of Four
teenth and F streets. Lincoln Hall
was also offered, free of rent, by A,
S. Pratt & Son.
Soon Christmas clubs were being
formed all over the city, vying with
each other to render the best possible
service. The children of Capitol
Hill and the Navy Yard met at the
Wallach School and selected William
E. Hutchinson as leader. In South
Washington, known as the third
district of the Childrens Christmas
Club, the children met at the JEFF
ferson School and School Trustee
William H. Baum was selected as
president William A. Gordon of the
first district called a meeting to be
held at the Curtis Building George
town, and another meeting of the
second district was held In the
Franklin School.

seems to have been the big commit
tee. and it urged all the children
