Observations

T h e Symphonic Band which
stirred Boston, few months ago,
is now in process of reorganiza-
ton as a democratically governed
unit, and will be presided over
by George Irish, the well known
orchestra leader, during its bus
mess sessions. During rehearsals,
the baton will be welded by the
same triumvirate who worked so
smoothly in guiding the destinies
before, namely: Robert Chestnut,
Jr., John M. Cooke and Raymond
Sheldon. The name "Old Colony"
will be its new appellation, and
they plan to give several big
concerts, to provide scholarships
for deserving students, and gem
orally follow a progressive pro-
gram. The artistic side will be
ably cared for by the directors.
One Of the features to watch will
be the playing Of the "Old Col
ony March" which was composed
for the Old Colony Band by its
director William A. Darlington
Sargent, when that band was
making history, a few years ago
Watch for announcements of the
coming treats in store for us.
Ruth and Henry Ellison are
too well known by the public
for me to do more, than remind
any who could have forgotten,
and tell any who may not know,
they are appearing in concert,

GIFTS FOR BEAUTY
Rv Ruth Nelson SAWYER

NEW YORK = Christmas is
upon us, and many people who
have a limited time for shopping
but still want to give lovely
gifts, might appreciate a few sug-
gestions. Any woman would
appreciate receiving cosmetics
and beauty aids and they can be
had in great variety.
For you working girls with
limited time for shopping, we
suggest that any girl would well
come a compact that has space
for powder and perfume.
Those endearing cologne sticks
are lovely for any girl to carry
around Lipstick is as important
to a girl as her tooth brush, SO
one of t hos e jeweled lipstick
cases that can be reflled item
after time, would be wonderful
to have.

BEAUTY HINTS
YOUTHFUL EYES
by NINA TEMPLE

The eyes are the most import
ant point Of beauty to the face :
one sees them first. Make yours
impressive. If you do not care
to use eye-shadow for them, use
this simple hint to make them
more attractive just a touch Of
oil on the inner corner of the lid.
This gives a youthful look. As
one grows older the eyes become
glazed and dull but when we are
children there is a May-morning
dewey look that charms. Make
your eyes charming.

worldly standards without world
Iy means.

IT'S TOO LATE NOW

One Of the saddest reflections
is this, TITS too late nowl! This
thought comes to the mind Of
many young men when they
reach maturity. All along when
the sun is rising in the east, skies
are blue overhead and troubles
have not mounted high they
think, even say, Il have plenty
Of time" Therefore, they dilly
daily, laugh, play and procras-
tinate while the days, months, the
years hurry by. Comes a time
when life makes no offers, loses
its bright prospects and one is
aghast to find that he has grown
weak and without zeal his fire
is out. Then he says. ''It's too late
now"
