a prelude to sweeter things, And the busy bill and the flutter slight Are proving the wings for a bolder flight! —Paul Laurence Dunbar. A new refrigeration plant has been installed in the White House in Washington, which apparently has not been able to keep cool with its occupant. CALIBAN CONFESSION Now I might tell you I had emptied laughter into an urn of tears and long thereafter found merriment in morbid mentors to cloud my sun-god with diableries, Musk-scented and sin-sodden. Or, I might reassert the old assertion that love was but beguiling time diversion, and I courtier at the court of sham — that I was anything but what I am. But would you, would you have the graceful tact not to confuse the fan with the fact? Philip Tan Oerton.

PLACE VENDÔME President Doumergue returned today to Paris from his summer residence, the Château de Rambouillet. The resentment of the Queen of Rumania against her son, the former Crown Prince Carol, because he renounced the throne nearly a year ago, seems to have disappeared. Yesterday Prince Carol accompanied his mother to the boat train at the Gare Saint-Lazare, when she left Paris to begin her trip to America. Prince Carol dined alone with his mother on Monday night. The newly-appointed Spanish Ambassador to the United States has presented his credentials in Washington. He is Senor Padilla, who replaces Don Juan Riano y Gayangos, who had served in Washington since 1913. THE WOMAN OF THE DAY “Signor Mussolini is the greatest statesman the world has ever produced,” Mayor Walker, of New York, said yesterday in replying to a speech of Signor Amicucci Morgagni Freddi, who conveyed to the Mayor of New York the greetings of the Governor of Rome. The engagement of Lord Inverclyde to Miss Olivia Sylvia Sainsbury is announced in London. Miss Sainsbury is the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Sainsbury, of Gloucester House, Park Lane, and her father is one of the heads of the provision firm of J. Sainsbury,

Miss Sainsbury is the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Sainsbury, of Gloucester House, Park Lane, and her father is one of the heads of the provision firm of J. Sainsbury, Ltd. Lord Inverclyde is twenty-eight years old and is the fourth Baron, having succeeded to the title in 1919. His father left more than £2,000,000. Lord Inverclyde was formerly in the Scots Guards; now he is Assistant Secretary to the Secretary for Scotland. Mr. Adolph Treidler, the American poster artist, sailed for America yesterday in the Leviathan after passing several months in Italy and France. Again and again Mr. Treidler has been hailed as the artist who has done the most to make people appreciate art in posters and he ranks among the three pioneers who brought about intelligent portrayal of art in advertising. He holds many prizes for his work, among them the award of $1,000 by the Government of the United States for a War Savings Poster. Many people who do not concern themselves directly with the advertising poster are familiar with magazine covers and illustrations which are his work. Each year, Mr. Treidler spends several months abroad to study his numerous favorite masters, as well as to make numerous sketches of familiar spots in France and Italy. His idea is that the best is not good enough, and that it is necessary for the artist to raise

An arrangement has been concluded by the Austrian Government and Dr. Richard Strauss, the composer and conductor, by which the latter will return to the Vienna State Opera. By the terms of the agreement Dr. Strauss undertakes to conduct twenty performances each winter for the next five years, and in consideration of his services he is to be presented with ground in Belvedere Park, on which he proposes to build a villa. Owing to certain differences which arose at the end of 1924 Dr. Strauss for a time refused to direct the orchestra at the State Opera House. Miss Katharine Edson, the American concert dancer, will open her European tour on Saturday afternoon at the Comédie des Champs-Elysées. She will offer a varied program, the feature of which will be the dances of the Hopi Indians. In order to perfect these dances, Miss Edson spent six months in the Arizona desert with the Hopi tribe. She will offer in the Indian suite authentic fragments of dance and melody, chosen from rich material which, drawn from Indian habits, has a remarkable mythology portrayed by symbolism in gesture and rhythm. For two years Miss Edson was première danseuse in

For two years Miss Edson was première danseuse in the ballet of which Pavlovsky Oukrainski was director, and she was for a time National Director in the United States of the Dennis Shawn schools. Miss Edson is a native Californian, having been born in San Francisco. Her father, Mr. Charles Folwell Edson, is a poet and musician. Her mother was for a long time an officer of the California Welfare and Industrial Society, and a member of the Republican Committee of the State. After the Paris concert, Miss Edson will go to Berlin, Vienna, London and other European centres. Professor Paul Kammerer, the biologist, who committed suicide on September 24, left a letter of explanation addressed to the Moscow Academy. It appears that Dr. G. K. Noble, of the American Museum of Natural History, New York, in an article in Nature, suggested that certain markings on toads upon which Professor Kammerer had based some remarkable claims in the matter of heredity, were faked by the insertion under the skin of the toad of Indian ink. Professor Kammerer thereupon made a thorough investigation. In the letter which he left, he confesses that he found that all Dr. Noble’s accusations were true, and that somebody must have played a cruel trick

It has given me my death blow. The work of my whole life is destroyed,” were the last sentences of the letter. Senor Eugenio Salles, dramatist and member of the Spanish Academy, died yesterday in Madrid. He was eighty-four years old.

MADAME CECIL ARDEN “The day of the old prima donna is past. Proper care of the body will keep anyone from becoming fat and a singer’s sore throat is usually a state of mind.” Thus in vigorous, firm tones a modern prima donna, Madame Cecil Arden, whose European début in Paris last Sunday was a marked success, denounces a whole race of singers and emphasises her own physical and artistic fitness. To one accustomed to the old-fashioned opera soprano, Madame Arden is certainly surprising. Slight of figure, walking with a buoyant, energetic, though not ungraceful stride, her bright blue gown matching her eyes, she gives the impression of the modern American business woman. And this impression is not far from wrong—for Madame Arden is her own concert manager. In a few weeks she will begin a coast-to-coast tour of America giving fifty-two concerts and finishing in time to join the Metropolitan Opera Company in New York. This speaks well for the work of the concert manager. But as one speaks with her, the manager is forgotten. Her sincerity and her devotion to her art are immediately apparent. Her deep voice takes on new color as she speaks of some Mexican songs which she discovered in Southern California. Not the Raquel Meller cabaret type of song but the heart-felt folksongs of an ancient people. Modern Singers. “The modern singer,” she says, “is not content merely to sing beautifully.

She must interest herself in all the allied arts, and especially in what modern artists are doing. Modern composers are writing songs so rich in connotative values that unless a singer does not keep abreast with happenings she cannot expect to sing them properly.” Born in New York, Madame Arden studied at the public schools there and attended the specialized high school for girls, Hunter College. She did not touch the piano or study voice until she was sixteen. Then she began work with Buzzi-Peccia; at the end of five years with this famous teacher, she made her début on the boards of the Metropolitan Opera House singing with Farrar and Caruso. Her success was immediate and assured; with five languages at her command, she was soon singing parts in “Samson et Dalila,” “Carmen,” “Mignon,” “Werther,” “Aïda,” and “Il Trovatore.” The restless energy which manifests itself in every gesture she makes, found outlet also in many other activities. Madame Arden is a skater and swimmer and she travels thousands of miles each year. In New York, she is Vice-President of a popular women artists club, “The Woman Pays,” and she has done no little public speaking for the encouragement of art centres in the smaller cities.

PARIS TIMES SPECIAL BERLIN, Tuesday. — Practical psychology demonstrated in the automobile section of the police exposition now opened here is attracting much comment. Students of the police school are seated on a chassis with the rear wheels raised, and asked to drive the car over the dangerous roads and through the traffic dangers suggested by a motion picture shown directly in front of the car. The picture has the effect of actual dangers confronting the drivers, who shift gears and apply brakes calmly or excitedly, just as the same man would do on the road. The screen is so built that the driver, peering over his steering wheel at a point about fifteen feet in front of the car, is hypnotically convinced that he is driving the machine depicted. Twelve nations are participating in the automobile exposition, cars of all types for specialized police work being shown. Although France was invited to participate, no French cars are shown. Another spécial display shows fully equipped police automobiles,

Twelve nations are participating in the automobile exposition, cars of all types for specialized police work being shown. Although France was invited to participate, no French cars are shown. Another spécial display shows fully equipped police automobiles, some armed with machine-guns and rifles for the pursuit of desperate criminals, others geared for high-speed work in transporting agents, yet others furnished with detective apparatus that can be used at the scene of a crime within a few minutes after it has been reported to the police. Traffic control, as a great problem in Berlin as in other modern cities since the automobile came into its own, is given much attention in the displays. Other aspects of police work are also dealt with in detail. An ironical sidelight has developed at the exposition in the announcement that thousands of thefts have been committed under the eyes of the anti-crime walkers organized into the ...

THE PARIS STAGE THE PATHOLOGICAL CYCLE Paris, it would seem, is in for a season of pathological drama. Following the long run of “La Prisonnière,” which still draws crowds to the Femina, we have similar themes introduced into “Sardanapale” at the Théâtre des Arts, and “Méditerranée” at the Michodière. It is not because of its Sapphic passages, however, that “Méditerranée” is attracting attention. It is the work of a young author, Paul Haurigot, chosen by a committee of dramatists as representative of the modern tendency in French dramaturgy. M. Quinson gave the author full rein in staging his play, even to the point of choosing his own cast and his own scene designer. The result is indeed modern—not futuristic, exactly, but distinctly impressionistic—so modern that its departure from forms and its lack of orthodox cohesion shocks the critics of the old school. “Méditerranée” takes place on a steamer between Constantinople and Marseilles. By a rapid succession of short scenes the author would show that between ports his characters are figuratively as well as literally at sea. The friend of a Russian general takes up with a pseudo-butler who is really a spy, steals important papers from a French colonel, and plays poker successfully with a banker. The banker’s wife is wooed successively by a young diplomat and an immoral cantatrice. The diplomat turns his attentions to a young thing going home from a convent. The ship’s engineer philanders too well with an emigrant girl whose mother thereupon jumps overboard. But when the ship signals for the pilot outside Marseilles, the characters return to normal on the prospect of resuming contact with solid ground. The Pitoeffs also are disconcerting the critics with the “Sardanapale” of Boussac
