POT-POUHRI clubs are a new Idea
this summer. Gardeners are al

rose-grower, whose bushes are, per

local exhibition, has her work cut out
for her this month in preparing pot

friends. Whether the club offers prizes
for the best concoction or not, comi>e
titlon could not be keener, and during
the latter half of June, when the roses

baked petal! and mixing of spices, fcc

of the lore of sweet-pot making came
from the east. Aromatic spices con

oriental perfumes, the scent of which
brings out and preserves the delicac

Musical
11 HK authorities of the Royal opera
house In Berlin last week aco pted
- for production a grand opera in
thre.' aeis entitled "Poia," the libretto
of which In by Randolph Hartley and
the music by Arthur Nevln. iioiti the
composer and librettist are Americana;
the opera is upon an American Indian
subject, and the work la the: tirst
American composition of Ita kind thai
has ever been accepted by a court the
ater in Europe,
The story of the opera concerns a
legendary character named i'oia. who
in order to win the love of a girl of
his tribe made a hazardous journey to
the home of the Sun God, arid, because
of his bravery and devotion, was chosen
by the'gods to be their prophet upon
earth. The legend upon Which the lib
retto is founded is really the Christ
story of the Indiana of the northwest.
It differs from similar legends pos
sessed by all races chiefly in the fact
that human love is the insplriatlon that
leads the hero, to spiritual perfection.
The action takes place at a period long
In fore the arrival of while men In
America and the characters are all
Indians and personages ot Indian
mythology. Mr. Hartley has, It is said,
followed as Closely as was possible in
the dramatic form the original Indian
legends, which were gathered and
translate-.i by Walter McCllntock, a
young American ethnologist who has
made a specialty ol Indian folklore. Mr.
Kevin's score is based upon original
Indian themes which he himself ob
tained at first hand from the Indians
of the northwest. The. work, as an op
era, is, however, constructed upon the
accepted lines of modern music drama.
The tirst production of "Pola" at the
Berlin opera will occur next season.
Harrison Gray Flake, In the editorial
column of the Dramatic Mirror, writes
of the opera and its authors ns fol
lows:
"The acceptance of the Randolph
Hartley and Arthur Nevln'S grand
opera 'Poia' by the Royal opera house
of Berlin marks a very important stop
forward in regard to the recognition
of American art abroad.
"Never before has a serious opera by
Americans been accepted by a Euro
pean court theater.
"That a native librettist and com
poser have been forced by conditions at
home to go abroad for a hearing is a
matter over which Americans have no
reason to be proud, but since they were
obliged to carry their coals to New
castle, 1 It is gratifying to know that
their work has won, merely through Its
acceptance by the authorities of the
Berlin royal opera, the highest recog
nition in the world of operatic art.
"This means that the libretto first
passed muster under the readers, the
stage director and the director general,
and that the music gained the approba
tion of such authorities as Humper
dlnck and Muck, who are among the
exjiminers at the Berlin opera.
"There is likely to be little favor
shown in such oxaminations at the
kaiser's own opera house, and the work
of the two Americans had to stand
comparison with the work of the fore
most European librettists and compos
ers of the time.
"Both Mr. Hartley and Mr. Nevln are
men of ability, and though compara
tively young in years, have served long
apprenticeships In their chosen fields.
The fact of the acceptance of the work
by the distinguished authorities of the
royal opera almost Insures its artistic
success, and places the hallmark of
artistic efficency upon the librettist
and composer.
"In this case, ns In pn many other
cases, native opportunity was neg
lected. It is understood that 'Poia' was
submitted to the authorities of the
Metropolitan opera house, New York —
and declined.
"When will America display and en
force original Judgment In such mat
ters?"
There was recently organized In Los
Angeles, San Francjsco and Seattle
"centers" of the Americans Music so
cloty, at whose head stands that In
defatigable champion of American ran
sic and musicians—Arthur Farwell.
This society has as its aim one of the
most important and difficult tasks ever
assumed by any organization, says the
Pacific Coast Music Review. It is the
difficulty of the fulfillment of the plans
of this society that lends the greatest
zest to Its promoters. It is easy enough
to promulgate ideas acceptable to the
public at large and to be successful
when everyone you meet gladly offers
you assistance. But it is not so easy
to launch and supervise a movement
that by its very nature arouses preju
dices, opposition and skepticism araons
the majority of the people you desire
to enlist among its missionaries. When,
a number of years ago, Mr. Farwell be
gan his famoua movement of the Wa-
Wah Press in Newton Center. Mass. —
a movement especially organized for
the purpose of giving American com
posers an opportunity to have their
works published—only a very small
percentage of those who read or heard
about this movement gave it any seri
ous thought and even those who were
heart and soul with Mr. Farwell and
his work looked upon the new move
ment more as a beautiful dream than
a practical enterprise.
Mr. FarweU's desire to encourage the
publication of the works of American
composers arose from a set purpose to
find a means by which it is possible to
establish a distinctly American school
of composition. Mr. Farwell, like all
the Americans, believes it to be pos
sible that there is no reason why an
American school of composition may
not be as firmly established upon the
musical annals of the world as a Ger
man, French, Italian, Russian and
other national schools of music. Mr.
Farwell believes that the Indian, being
the only typical native of this conti-

new school and his folklore should form
the basis upon which the American
school of composition must rest. There
are musicians, however, who claim
that America is now a cosmopolitan
nation and that consequently its na
tional school of music— ever such a
■thing will be maintained —must be a
composite of nil the schools of music
represented by the various nationalities
comprising Its citizenship. Be that as
It may, the fact remains that every one
seriously interested In music is now
very much in favor of seeing an Amer
ican school of composition among the
future additions to the world's work.
And In order to make such an evolu
tion possible it is necessary to stimu
late the energies of American com
posers (meaning composers residing in
America permanently) and those ener
gies can only be effectively stimulated
by creating opportunities for their em
ployment.
And herein we find the greatest trait
of this rapidly growing movement of
the. American Music society, which has
expanded and widened from a rather
discouraging beginning in a little vil
lage near Boston to a national organ
ization that embraces the territory from
the Atlantic to the Pacific. Surely Mr.
Farwell has every reason to fee) proud
of his work.

Which the grandma storks watch over.
While honey-bug bees,

For Its people are all sleepers;
And never a one,

In Cuddledowntown there are ehoo-choo cars
In all of the beautiful streets;
And round, bald heads,

While wonderful toys,

Can always be had by reaehtng.

Told on the evening breeze,
When the millionaires sit together,
Comparing their LL. D.'a.
"We worked from our early boyhood.
And we made our Industries hum,
Till at last we found time for breathing
And could watch the dolars come.
"Then came the college masters
And captured us, one anl all.
Though most of us spoke not T*atln,
And our knowledge of grammar was small.
'"They put us in mother hubbards
And caps like mortar-boards, too,
And said: 'Now watch us, rich men.
And see what we do to you.'
"And they led us In groups and singly,
And led us by twos and threes,
And handed us, willynilly,
A collection of high degrees,
"And no* we have titles In plenty
Attached to each plain old name,
And to pay, we must tap the check book,
For that is the rule of the game."
This Is the horrible story,

And made an unremitting que»t.
And hunted high and hunted low
Then unto God my prayer» shall go.
I would not for one moment ask
A mortal friend to do my task.
Then why on my Creator shirk
My rightful portion of the work?
An Idle mendicant —no more,
Is he who begs at heaven's door,
TTntil with body, soul and mlnfl
He seeks, himself, life's gifts to find.
—Ella Wheeler Wllcox.
HER MOODS
A woman is compound, they say. *
Of moods. To be explicative—
She points out to a man the way
To go—and that's INDICATIVE.
At first she does It gently, .lust
To save a scene compunctlve—
Says that he "may," not that he "must,"
And that's her mood SUBJUNCTIVE.
If he demurs, does she give way?
Nay, never for a minute! I've
Known her to work for many aday
To win. And that's INFINITIVE.
But If suggestion!!, patience, tact,
Pail, she becomes declarative.
She orders—and you'd better act
Good, when her mood's IMPERATIVE.

SANDS OF TIME
Time's minutes, whilst they're told,
Do make us old;
And every sand of this fleet class.
Increasing ape as It doth pMB,
Insensibly sows wrinkles there.
Where dowers and roses do appear.
