with regard to Mrs. White's diamonds
which appeared in your recent issue is
altogether unauthorized and in some re

At the headquarters of the Near East

Europe Ready
For [Tourists
From America
- _*
Representatives of Travel
Bureaus Deny Hotel * Ac?
commodations Are Diffi?
cult to Get at Present
Marks of War Remain
Shell Furrows Seam Farm
Lands and Poppies Grow
Alongside Many Trenches
Conditions are extremely favorable
for tourists who desire to visit Euro?
pean battlefields, according to the
representatives of a dozen large travel
bureaus, who foregathered at a lunch?
eon in the Hotel Commodore yesterday.
Hotel accommodations and transpor?
tation facilities aro everywhere avail?
able, they said, reporte to the contrary
notwithstanding. Americans are being
received hospitably, they declared, and
given every opportunity to inspect the
war areas and other points of interest
and to visit the cemeteries where our
soldier dead are buried.
"The stories that have gone broad
east concerning a lack of4proper facili?
ties for handling American tourists
and the unpreparedness of Europe for
visitors," said Joseph I. Young, traffic
manager for America of the Thomas
Cook & Son tour bureau, "do not co?
incide with the truth of the matter.
Men and women who are returning
from abroad tell ua the true state of
affairs, and wherever you can obtain
a statement from them they assure us
that those who desire to see with their
own eyeB the davafetation wrought by
the war have been fully satisfied.
Europe is abnormal, of course. It is
expected. No man can conceive of Eu?
rope being the same Europe he saw
five years ago. That is the novelty of
seeing Europe to-day. Americans can?
not afford to miss seeing it."
Leon L. Collvei, vice-president of
the Raymond & Whitcomb Company, of
Boston, who recently has returned
from Europe, declared that "never be?
fore have the American people needed
the services of our frgencies so badly
as at present. With our competent
guides and representatives in Europe,
most of them ex-soldiers themselves,
who knew the country well, the most
can be obtained in an educational way
now. I fear the people are not fully
aware of the opportunities we afford
them."
Strife and disease and upheavals, it
was explained, do not affect the aver?
age American traveler, as most of
these troubles exist in Central Europe
or in the East. In the western sec?
tions, or the war belt, where most
Americana desire to go, ttiere is opti?
mism and a great degree of prosperity
and happiness.
In Italy, it wag said. Where, accord?
ing to reports circulated recently,
there has bcun great difficulty among
American travelers in making them?
selves comfortable, the very utmost
in comfort is afforded, and parties of
Americans are arriving there regularly,
accompanied by representatives of the
American travel companies, who have
vastly more of interest to show them
than ever before.
Reeve Chlpman, manager of the
Temple Tours, of Boston, commenting
up^on the opportunities for seeing Eu?
rope as it was at the signing of the
armistice, said:
"The people must not be misled.
There appears to be a propaganda In
.circulation at the present, tending to
frighten Americans from carrying out
their hopes of going abroad this year.
These reports are erroneous. Head?
lines in the newspapers proclaiming
Bolshevism rampant in Europe must
be construed as meaning perhaps some
Bedtime Stories
By-Thornton* W. Burgees
Johnny Chuck looses His*Fat
Old Mother Nature's plans for good
Quite often are not understood.
It was a week after Johnny Chuck's
'awakening before Peter Rabbit, saw
? him again. Peter had been so busy
I trying to welcome old friends on the
' Green Meadows and in the Green For
' est that he had not visited tho Old
j Orchard. That morning, when Johnny
I Chuck had come out to sit on his door
! step for the first time, he had seemed
| to be just about as fat as he had been
? when he had gone down in the fall to
: sleep for the winter, and that was very
; fat, indeed. In fact, he had been so
?t fat that ho could hardly waddle.
Perhaps you can guess how surprised
! Peter was when he met Johnny Chuck
| a week later and discovered that
I Johnny wasn't fat at all. In fact,
Johnny was thin.
"Goodness gracious, what's happened
to you?" exclaim?d Peter Rabbit.
"Nothing's happened to me," grum?
bled Johnny Chuck, "ex'Cfepting that
I've nearly worn the skin off the soles
of my feet hunting for something to
eat."
"But?but?you were fat the la3t
In spite of himself Johnny Chuck
grinned. He couldn't help it. Peter
abbit was so very much in earnest
-.at he really was funny. "Who said I
ate my fat?" demanded Johnny Chuck.
"I said I have been living o? it."
"Well, how can you have been living
on it if you haven't been eating it?"
demanded Peter.
This time Johnny Chuck fairly
laughed right out, "Peter," said he,
"it is very plain that you still have a
lot to learn. Last fall I ate and ate
until I was so fat I could harcUy wad?
dle. When I went to sleep that fat
was a sort of blanket under my skin
to keep me warm. During that long
winter sleep I didn't move. Even my
heart beat only just enough to keep
me alive, so I didn't need food. That
fat, of course, was really a kind of
food, and such little as was needed
was taken into my body. But the real
purpose of that fat was to keep me
?alive this spring if I should wake* up
before there was any green food, T?tlich
I did. Of course, the minute I began
"Goodness gracious, what's happent
time I saw you and now you are thin,"
said Peter.
"Huh! Of course, I'm thin. Why
shouldn't I be thin? How can a fel?
low keep fat with nothing to eat?"
gr?wled Johnny Chuck, and it was quite
plain to see that his temper was no
better than on the morning of his
awakening.
"But you kept fat all winter, so I
don't see why you couldn't keep fat a
little longer," protested Peter. "What
did you do with all that fat?"
"What did I do with all that fat?"
repeated Johnny Chuck. "What did I
do with it? What do you suppose I
did with it? I have been living on it,
of course."
Peter's long ears flew straight up
and hit eyes opened very wide. "Do
you mean to tell me," said he, "that
you've been eating your own fat? I
don't believe a word of it, Johnny
Chnek. You cant staff me with any
*.$.4^y_^l5?..T,w:
d to you?" exclaimed Peter Rabbit.
to move about I needed food to give
me strength and energy. Not being
able to find much of anything to put
in my stomach, my body has drawn on
that fat until now it is nearly gone.
By the time it is all gone I hope there
will be some green things to eat. If
there are not I will starve. I'm bo
thin now that my skin doesn't fit any
more. My coat feels about five sizes
too big."
"It looks it," replied Peter, and, in?
deed, it did. "I hope you won't grow
any thinner, Johnny Chuck."
"I hope I won't," replied Johnny,
"but I expect I will. Some -of you
folks seem to think that this ia a
mighty fine time of year, bjit I don't.
My, but I would like to g?jt my stomach
filled just once more."

S. Douglas Malcolm, manager of the

have investigated thoroughly the con?
ditions in Europe from the standpoint
at the American traveler, assured the

Beethoven Society
Presents Pieces
Never Heard Here
"Cantata on the Death of a
Hero" and Rondo Are
Features of Fine Program ;
English Text Is Given
The Beethoven Society is an organi?
zation virtually unique in the musical
life of New York. To all appearances
it is wholly free from any taint of
commercialism. The members, distin?
guished artists, contributo their serv?
ices without remuneration at its con?
certs, which represent a high ideal
nobly striven for*?the perpetuation of
the name and glory of a musical giant.
Without other press agenting than the
admirable quality of the programs and
the superior merits of the perform?
ances these concerts which came into
existence only a few months ago, havo
created for themselves a large and
loyal following.
The prestige of the society was
further enhanced last evening by the
erformance of two works never before
eard in America, and but few times
anywhere, the "Cantata on tho Death
of a Hero," for soprano and bass solos,
chorus and orchestra, and a rondo for
piano apd orchestra in B flat.
Of the two the cantata, of course,
assumed the greater importance on the
program. According to the program
notes contributed by Henry Edward
JCrehbiel, who also furnished the Eng?
lish translation of the Cern?an text
written by a young theological candi?
date, Anton Averdonk, the cantuta was
composed in March 1790, when Beet?
hoven was twenty years old, for a com?
memorative service on the death of
Joseph II, Emperor of Austria and
brother of Max Franz, Elector of
Cologne, in the service of whose court
at Bonn Beethoven was employed at
the time. In adapting words for this
concert Mr. Krehbiel freely para?
phrased the text so as to make it ap?
plicable to any heroic liberator, and
with one of his own heroes, Lincoln, in
mind.
The cantata consists of two choruses,
a recitative and aria for bass and a
recitative ? and aria, with chorus, for
! soprano. The music is a glorious hymn
I of mourning. It belongs to the greater
Betthoven, if distinctions are to be
I made concerning tho work of the mu?
sical giant whose name lives forever
and whose chant of genius goes on un?
changed through the ages into eter?
nity. Beethoven himself appreciated
the value of this youthful work, for
fifteen years after its composition he
used the melody of one of its numbers,
with key and oboe solo unchanged, in
the finale of "Fidelio," and the opening
chorus of the first number as the be?
ginning of tho music to the dungeon
scene.
The cantata was reverently per?
formed by an orchestra composed of
members of the New York Symphony
Society, conducted by Sam Franko, and
a selected chorus from the Schola
Cantorum. Mrs. Julia Griffith and
j Fred Patton, the soloists, sang with
arresting beauty of tone and excellent
diction.
Earlier in the evening the other nov?
elty, the Rondo, was played by Rudolph
Ganz with the lightness of touch, fleet
ness and suave elegance witH which his
playing is indisputably associated.
This rondo, presumably written for
Beethoven's First Concerto in B flat,
has a cadenza by Czerny, who also
elaborated the piano passages, only
suggested by Beethoven.
But there wero other delights on the
program. The evening opened with se?
lections from "The Ruins of Athens."
These included a rousing performance
of the Choru3 of Dervishes and the
Turkish March, both of which were
repeated to tho joy of the audience.
Then the Serenade for flute, violin and
! viola, in D major, Op. 25, was played
by George Barrer?, Gustave Tinlot and
Reno Pollain, a marvelous exhibition
of perfect ensemble and exquisite
tonal beauty.
George Hamlin's contribution was
the singing of the cycle of six songs,
"To My Distant Beloved," for which
Mr. Ganz played the accompaniments.
Altogether it was a great concert and
one of the most important events in
.the musical life of the year.
Roses Feature Flower Show
j Roses were featuead at the seventh
' international flower show at the Grand
Central Palace yesterday, which was
set aside as British Day.
The principal feature in the day's
judging was the award of a $500 prize
for the best 500 square-foot garden,
with the greatest quality of bloom,
mo-it artistic arrangement and general
effect, which was won 1/y John Sheep
ers, of this city. Another $500 prize
for a similar garden, but of 300 square
feet, was won by Trnendly & Schenck,
of Rowayton, Conn. F. R. Pierson, of
Tarrytown, N. Y., won the second prize
of $800 in this class.
An exhibit that attracted much at?
tention was the new carnation creation ?
of H. B. Marinelli, of Montvale, N. J.,
named by him the "Merveille Fman
?aise." It is the largest carnation ever
produced, and its colors are flesh, with
variegated dark pink stripes in spots.
Some of its blooms measure four inches
across.

Pedro Guetary Gives Recital
At the Princess Theater
Pedro Quetary, a singer who many
years ago was a member of the Metro?
politan Ope. a Company and who is said
to have sung with no less an artist
than Adelina P?tti, gave a recital yes?
terday afternoon at the Princess The?
ater. Mr. Guetary is en artist trained
in the old school and he sang with
every evidence of that training, while
time has dealt more leniently with his
voice than it has with njany others. A
feature, and a pleasing one, of his re?
cital was his singing of some of his
! own songs, both in English and in
BaBque. The latter especially were
full of color and rhythmic interest. Mr.
Guetary wls sympathetically greeted
by an audience which nearly filled the
theater. _
