j The most important society event of the month
H and of the entire season will be the opening ot
H the Hotel Newhouse on Saturday afternoon and
H evening next.
H No personal invitations have been issued, but
H it is expected that the opening will be attended
m by tlio most representative gathering of the peo-
H pie of the city and state ever seen here. Follow-
H ing the reception, which will be from five to six
H p. m., on the mezzanine floor, when attendants
H will be pleased to show people -through the va-
H riouB rooms and departments, there will be an
H elaborate table d hoto dinner to be served from
B six to nine o'clock, after which there will be danc-
H ing in the ballroom until morning.
H Hundreds of reservations have been made for
H tables during the dinner hours and the manage
H ment is especially desirous that those who have
H made reservations, particularly early ones, will
H take the trouble to confirm them so that there
H will be no errors incident to the rush of the oc-
H casion. It is especially desired also that the
H time the tables will be wanted will be mentioned.
H That the event will attract several thousand, goes
H without saying and it is anticipated that the ac-
H commodations in the luxurious dining rooms will
H all (be taken. The smart set is on tip-toes with
H anticipation.
H The famous Amsterdam-Hungarian orchestra
H of New York will be present, and the Troubadours
H have offered their services 'for the evening as
H have many other musicians and vocalists. From
H all indications there will be ten or twelve hours
H of great fun and those who overlook being pres-
H ent will miss the finest event of the year. Prep-
H arations ihave been made to serve fifteen hundred
H table d'hote dinners, and after they are served,
H the regular a la carte service will be in effect
H during the evening.
H
H The most important event ever given by the
H local alumni of the Greek Letter fraternities rep-
H resented in this city will take place at the New-
H house hotel on Friday evening, April 9th, when
H the Pan-Hellenic Society of Utah will give a din-
H ner-dance of large proportions, it being expected
H that the attendance will not be less than three

During her stay in the city this week, the
pretty little prima donna has attracted no end
of attention and one young man has seemingly
gone quite mad over her attractiveness. Ho
hasn't been able to meet her either, but his devo
tion is most remarkable. He manages to get a
table near her in the grills, a seat near her in the
theatre and is only a foot or two behind her
on the street. It is possibly just one of those
one sided romances however, so frequent when an
exotic little beauty suddenly arrives in town.
A beautiful affair early im the week was a
supper given by Mr. and Mrs. Harold Smoot for
Miss Felice Lyne who Is an old friend of Mrs.
Smoot. Besides Miss Lyne her mother and 'Mrs.

PEACE CRUCIFIED
J J
By Harry B. Kennon. ,
Ancient of Days! 5' I
Of men disclaimed ' rv jj
While fashioning of man a God: Jj
Blonde super-beast of one base law,
Self preservation, claw to claw
Turn, turn, nor leave us unreclaimed,
Stay with thy hand man's awful rod. I,
Lord God of Hosts!
Of men blasphemed
While warring 'gainst their brother men:
Besought of priests and monarchs, Thou!
While neutral traders cringe and bow
Turn, turn not from us, if unschemed
To change our god to Man again.
God of all Nations!
Dispossessed
Of all to serve each claimant land;
Dethroned to serve for might, not right;
Nor lighten brotherhood's dark night
Turn, turn not from us, it distressed
We see through flame, nor understand.
Our Father!
Let this blood filled cup, ' ,
That trembles in our stubborn hands, '
Pass If it be Thy gracious will
Lord, dos't Thou sleep or slumber still?
Wake! Wake Lord God! Nor let us sup ,'
To dregs this wrath that man commands.
WAR
By Baron Boerries von Munchhausen
(Post)
How easy now in Germany to die
As the sad clock records the waning day!
When beams of glory from the western sky
Gold haloes round th'e warriors hemlets lay.
Instead of ringing song from flashing sword, r
Come hiss of shrapnel 'boom of murd'rous fo I
steel.
My wonder is that larks find their accord,
And that a German poet dares to feel.
The noisome weeds that from the sainted soil
The yellow-tassel corn o'ertopped by far,
In German earth foiled every winter's toil.
One only plows so deep and that Is war!
1
And when the warrior steeds of iron gray
Have dug the plow across the inert field;
Again the gold-tasseled corn shall sway
Where once the yellow weed refused to yield.
.
Watch, too, that where the. mighty hoofs have trod
And 'gainst the furrow hollows sharp have
prest,
Will rise alluring song from out the clod
As larks rejoice and, singing, make their nest!
