FEDERATION OF
MUSIC LOVERS
HEARCONCERTS
Talks by Leading Artist's
Interesting Feature of
Program.
An enthusiastic audience of music
lovers attended the concert last night in
the Travertine room of the Hotel Lin*
••oln under the a'nspiees of the Federa
tion of Music Clubs. At the beginning of
the program the foyer was filled to over
flowing. .
The opening number of the concert was
"America'’ sung by the audience with the
organ accompaniment. Several numbers
.through the evening were accompanied
by the organ, something that has been
; tmost impossible at conventions here
tofore.
Mrs. Van Denman Thompson of (treen
oastle, save a number on the organ “The
Brook,” l>y Itethier. The Frankfort
Matinee Mnsicale Chorus with Mrs. Carl
Sims as soloist. Miss Caroline Sims as
director and Miss Mary Voorhees as ac
companist rendered several numbers, in
cluding “The Awakening,” “Spring Blos
soms.” “The West Wind and the May,”
and "Spring's Herald.” Asa closing num
ber the Frankfort chorus gave three num
bers “The Loney Pine,” "The Willow."
and "Trees." Other members on the pro
gram were Mrs. Hull Osborne of K>komo,
organ, with Mrs. Harry Bruner, accom
panist on piano; a Crawfordsville trio of
Mr. Taul Garrett, violin. Miss Helen Me
Carthy, harp, and Miss Inez Kelsey, piano
gave several numbers; Mrs. Louis A
Holthouse of Decatur, sang, accompanied
by Mrs. Carrie Thomas Hanbold; an*
Mrs. Rosetta Samuel French of Evansville
gave the only piano solo of the evening.
Miss Virginia Jarvis of Elkhart, who is
a member of the junior organization
there, gave the initial number for the
juniors. Miss Jarvis has a beautiful,
clear, airy soprano voice and sang sev
eral numbers from the music memory
contest. "From the Land of the Sky Blue
Water.” by Cadman, and “Wake Fp. by
Phillips. She was accompanied by Mrs.
S. L. Kiser.
Reports from the standing committees
were given in the afternoon. Most of
these committees are only a few months
old and the reports were on “What We
Ffope to Do This Year.’" The following
committees reported: Publicity, Miss
Grace Hutchins, reciprocit rs. Ktfie
M. Harvey; young artists' contests, Mrs.
Reid Steele; public school music. Miss
Caroline Hobson; Junior and Juvenile
clubs. Mrs. W. A. Mackay; library exten
sion, Mrs. F. H. Cowles. Crawfordsville,
and ways and means, Mrs. B. R. Batty.
ERNEST lIESSER
OX SCHOOL MCSIC.
The principal speaker of the afternoon
was Ernest Hesser, director of music of
the Indianapolis public schools. Mr.
Hesser sang three beautiful numbers be
fore his talk, “Honor and Arms.” “Fairy
Pipers'* and “Sylvia.” In his talk he
laid great tress on the new movement of
vducation called the “project plan.” He
teach
ing. is to coordinate and cooperate the
different subjects. He explained that
music is one of the easiest subjects to
use la this way. He spoke of a dis
play that had been made up by the
children in an art class, to show the
thought that they had. from the songs
used in the memory contest. He said
that older people as well as young
needed music and that old customs are
coming back under new names, such as
community singing, which was started
in the Army, and is now being used
in most every meeting of a large body
of people. This custom is a revival
from our grandfathers’ time, he said
He emphasized the need for music ap
preciation to be taught in the schools,
and said that he hopes that the time is
coming when every teacher will have to
pass a music examination before being
qualified to teach, so that In the rural
SofTools, especially, the music would no!
drop out in the daily routine of study.
Great thought and work is being given
to the junior and juvenile clubs. Mrs.
William J. Hal! of St. Louis, national
chairman of the Junior and Juvenile
Clubs spoke to - the club this morning
about the work which is Just in its in
fancy. She asked that each senior chib
try to organize a junior club and put It
on the same working basis as the senior
club, but to be sure that it has two
directors and a sponsor.
The concert this afternoon was given

CAPES ARE NOW OUR NATIONAL UNIFORM
Even the coats of some suits, and little
| separate sport coats, have lately formed
a habit of masquerading as capes by tak
ing unto- themselves cape sleeves or cape
backs. Many wearers like these cape
coats better, because they button snugly
over the chest and afford more warmth
on blustery spring days when winter
chill Is yet in the air.
Instead of regular collars, the scarf
finish for the neck is increasingly used.
This may dangle down the wearer's back
and still be quite smart, or, if she pre
fers, the two ends, or only one, may be
wrapped about her throat.
Many smart capes are made of rough
► sport fabrics with self fringe for finish.
Others are made of double-faced cloth
which requires no lining. But when lin
ings are used, as with many of the
lighter woolen materials, you may be sure
that they are very gay.
Navy blue, always a favorite for the
tailored garment, achieves a most piquant
effect when combined with the mrilliant
red which New York is lately calling
“lip-stick red.” This navy and bright
red combination was seen in dozens of
models for day time at the Jenny open
ing in Paris, with the red used gener
ously.
Crepe linings are being used extensive
ly and are much liked not only is being
newer .than satin and shining silks, but
because of their softness.
At a smart showing of London-made
sport Vtogs in New York an inter‘sting
black and white shepherd's plaid in large
bold cheeks was nmed. Lined with bril
liant. red or vivid green, this plaid was
very youthful and gay.

Significant but apparently trivial dif
ferences of taste have suggested to
MARK SABRE that he ar.d his wife
MABEL fail to understand one another.
After eight years of married life lie
knows that febs delights in poetry, in
whimsical humor and in democratic
ideals are not shared by the prosaic,,
and snobbish Mabel.
Sabre has a comfortable position in
the firm of Fortune. East and Satire, a
church and school"! supply house. The
firm is dominated by Rev. Sebastian
Fortune, chief shareholder.
CHAPTER V—Continued.
The Reverend Sebastian Fortune was
called Jonah by his employes; and he
was called Jonah partly because his vis
its to the places of their industry in
variably presaged disaster, but prin
cipally for the gross-minded r.nd wrongly
adduced reason that he hat; (in their
opinion! a whale's belly.
He bore a certain resemblance to a
stunted whale. He was chiefly abdominal.
His legs appeared to begin, without
thighs, at his knees, and his face, with
out neck, at his chest. His face w-as
large, both wide and long, and covered
as to its lower part with a tough scrub
of gray beard.
111.
Sabre had been promised full partner
ship by Mr. Fortune. He desired it very
greatly. The apportionment of duties
in the establishment was that Sabre man
aged the publishing department. Twvn
ing supervised the factory and work
shops wherein the ecclesiastical and
scholastic furniture was produced, and
Fortune supervised his two principals
and every least employe and smallest de
tail of all the business.
In 1012 Sabre felt that be had now
brought the publishing Into line with
the established departments. He had
emphasized the firm's reputation in this
activity by the considerable success that
attended two textbooks bearing (one In
collaboration! his own name. “Habre
and .Owen's Elementary Mathematics'’
and “Sr.ere's Modern History.”
The tributes with which this slim his
tory j rimer of 150 pages for IS pence had
been greeted inspired Sabre toward a
much bolder work, on which the early
summer of 1912 saw him beginning and
into which he found himself able to pour
in surprising volume thoughts and feel
ings which he had scarcely known to be
his until the pen and the paper began to
attract them. The title he had con
ceived alone stirred them in his mind
and drew them from it as a magnet stirs
and draws iron filings. "England.”
Just “England.”
CHAPTER VI.
L '■
Mabel called Sabre's school textbooks
“those lesson books.” After she had thus
referred to them two or three times he
gave up trying to interest her in them.
The expression hurt him. but when he
thought upon it he reasoned with him
self that he had no cause to be hurt.
Later he never mentioned "England" to
her. But he most desperately wanted to
talk about it to someone.
He was not actively aware of it. but
ions. mayonnaise dressing, four stuffed
olives, hearts -of lettuce.
Pare and cut apples into dice. If tart
apples are not to be had, let the diced
fruit stand in lemon Juice to cover for
an houf. Wash onions and mince. Mix
apples and onions well and add enough
mayonnaise to make a moist, creamy mix
ture. Arrange on hearts of lettuce and
garnish with the stuffed olives cut in
neat slices.
Did you ever try this? It’s not a com
pany dish, but the man of the family
win like it after a strenuous day in the
open.
Shred leaf lettuce. Cut the tops of
new onions in inch lengths. There should
be half as much onion as lettuce. Mix
well, put in the spider ham was fried in.
Cover closely and cook over a slow fire
for ten minutes. Remove cover and add
two tablespoons of vinegar. Serve nt
once as a vegetable.
CREAMED NEW ONIONS.
New onions, four squares of toast, two
tablespoons grated cheese, thre-fourths
cup of cream, butter, salt and pepper.
Allow four or five onions for each per
son. Use all the white part. Peel and
boil iq salt water till tender. Butter
toast, sprinkle with a little jjratetl cheese
and add onions. Season with and
pepper and sprinkle with more cheese.
Put in a hot over Just long enough to
melt cheese. Scald cream in double
toller and pour three tablespoons over
each portion. Serve at once.—Copy

what, in those years, he came to crave
for as a starved child craves food was
sympathy of mind.
He found it, in Penny Green, with
what Mabel called “the most extraordi
nary people.” “What you can find In
ether Mr. Fargus and that young Perch
and his everlasting mother,” she used to
say, “I simply cannot imagine.”
11.
Mr. Fargus, who lived next door down
the Green, was a gray little man with
gray whiskers and always in a gray
suit. He had a large and very red wife
and six thin and rather yellowish daugh
ters.
And there were the Perches—“ Young
Perch and that everlasting old mother of
his,” as Mabel called (hem.
Sabre always spoke of them as “Tonng
Rod, Pole or Perch" ands “Old Mrs Rod,
Polo or Perch.” Tills was out of what
Mabel called his childish and incompre
hensible habit of giving nicknames—
High Jinks and Low Jinks the outstand
ing and never forgotten example of it.
Mrs. Perch was a fragile little body
whose life should have been and could
have been divided between her bed and a
hath chair
She was Intensely weak sighted, but
she never could find her glnsses; and she
kept locked everything I hat would lock,
but she never could find her keys. She
held off all acquaintances by the rigid
handle of “that" before their names, but
she was very fond of "that Mr. Sabre,"
and Sabre returned a great affection for
her.
Young Perch was a tall and slight
young man with a happy laugh and an
air which sugested to Sabre after puzzle
ment, that his spirit was only alighted
in his body as a bird alights and swings
upon a twig, not engrossed in his body.
Sabre was extraordinarily attracted by
the devotion between the pair. Their
interest, their habits, their thoughts were
as widely sundered as their years, yet
each as wholly and completely bound
up In the otb'T. When Sabre sat and
talked with Young Perch of an evening,
oid Mrs. I’ereh would sit with them,
next her son, in an armchair asleep. At
Intervals she would start awake and
say querulously: “Now I suppose I
must be driven off to bed?”
Young Perch, not pausing In what
he might be spying, would stretch a
hand and lay It on his mother’s. Mrs.
Perch, as though Freddie’s hand touched
away enormous weariness and care,
would sigh restfuliy and sleep again.
It gave Sable extraordinary sensations.
If he had been asked to name his par
ticular friends these were the friends
he would have named. He saw them
eonstantly. Infrequently he saw an
other. Quite suddenly she came back
into his life.
Nona returned into his life.

Sabre, ambling h!s birycie along the
pleasant lanes toward Tldborough one
fine morning in the early summer of
1912. was met in his thoughts by ob
servation, as he topped a rise, of the
galloping progress of the light railway
that was Relink up the Penny Green
Garden Home with Tidborough and Cho
vensbury.
Here was a subject that interested him
and that intensely interested Mabel, and

them without • * • Only that very

A genial shouting and the clatter of
agitated boots, jerked Sabre from his
1 thoughts.
“Hullo! Hi! TTelp! Out cnllisionmats!
Stop the cab! Look out, Sabre! Sabre!”
He suddenly became aware—and he
jammed on his brakes and dismounted
by straddling a leg to the ground—

that In the narrow lane he was between
two plunging horses Their riders had
divided to make way for his bemused
approach.
On one side the lane was banked
steeply up In a cutting. The horse of
the rider on this side stood on its hind
legs and appeared to be performing a
series of postman’s double knocks on
the bank with Its forelegs. Lord Ty
har. who bestrode it, and who did not

copying a postmen, looked over his
shoulder at Sabre, showing an amused
grin, and said, "Thanks, Satire. This
is jolly. 1 like this. Como on, old
girl. This way down. Keep passing
on. please.”
“Ass!” laughed a voice above,then;
and Sabre, who had almost forgofien
there was another horse when he bad
abruptly wakened and dismounted,
looked up at it.
The other horse was standing with
complete and entirely unconcerned s!a
: tuesqueness on the low bank which
bounded the lane on his other side. Lady
Tybar had taken it.—or it had taken

ways bound, and ltorse and rider re-

malned precisely where the sideways
hound had taken them as If It were ex
actly where they had intended to go all
that morning, and as If they were now
setlled there for all time as a living
equestrian statue—a singularly strik
ing and beautiful statue.
“We are here,’’ said Lady Tybar. Her
voiee had a very clear, fine note. “We
are rather beautiful up here, don’t you
think? Rather darlings? No one takes
the faintest notice of us; we might bo
off the earth. But wo don't mind a
bit Hullo, Derry and Toms, Marko is
actually taking off his hat to us. Bow,
Derry."
Her horse, as If he perfectly under

attention to it with a deorecatory lit
tle gesture of her hand now? All right.
We'll descend. This is us descending.
Lady Tybar, who is a superb horse
woman, descending a precipice on her
beautiful half-bred Derry and Toms, a
winner at several shows.”
Derry and Toms stepped down off the
bank with complete assurance and su
perb dignity. With equal precision,
moving his feet as though there were
marked for them certain exact spots
which he covered with infinite light
ness and exactitude, he turned about
and stood beside his partner in ex
quisite and immobile pose.
111.
Thus the two riders faced Sabre, smil
ing upon him. He stood holding hts
bicycle immediately in front of them.
The mare continued to quiver her beauti
ful nostrils at him; every now and then
she Ablew a little agitated puff through
them,.causing them to expand and reveal
yet more delicacy.
Sabre thought that the riders, with
their horses, made the most striking, and
somehow affecting picture of virile and
graceful beauty he could ever have imag
ined.
Lord Tybar, who was thirty-two, was
deboniar and attractive of - countenance
to a degree. His eyes, which were gray,
were extraordinarily mirthful, mischie
vous. A supremely airy and careless
and bold spirit looked through those
eyes and shown through their flashes
and glBUs and sparkles of, diamond
light. His fare was thin and of tanned
olive. His fare seemed to say to the
world, chaliengly, “I am here! I have
arrived! Bring out your best and watch
me!” There were people— women-—who
said he had a cruel mouth. They said
this, not with censure or regret, but
wilh a deliciously feArful rapture as
though the cruel moiifE (if it were cruel)
were not the least part of his attraction.

Bobbed Hair Taboo
in Tuley School
CHICAGO, April fi.~Bobbed hair was
put on tho taboo list at Tuley High
School here—tho girls spent all their
tlrao during class curling their hair
around their fingers.
A general list of flowers for a larger
garden might also include cantias, fox
glove, cosmos, Cautcrlfury bells, verbenas
and Shasta daisies—but In most of these
flowers the use of seed beds is likely to
give best res'll Its.
Os course whether the beginner wishes
to attempt flowers that need special at
tention is a question he alone can de
termine. As lias been said previously he
cannot go wrong on hardy annuals and
with the use of seedbeds, with leaf mould
and sometimes sand mixed In the soil,
and with some care given to protection
against the sun and against pests, he is
likely to get results from the less hardy
flowers.

Our First Year
Chapter Vlll—Kitchen Catastrophe
BY A BRIDE. - '
WHAT'S ALREADY HAPPENED
Jack and his new wife are trying
to keep their individual liberty in
spite of marriage. As this chapter
opens they had both been out the
night before, but not in each other’s
company.
Jack puts on the kettle each morning
while I dress. I make the coffee while
he bathes and shaves.
We slept late the morning following
our first night out. Not until I heard
a whistle of distress from the kitchen
did I remember that I had left it In an
awful confusion.
I rushed to help my husband.
“(’an't find anything. I'eggins!" ex
plained my bewildered spouse.
"Go and shave! You're late, dear!"
I pushed Jack toward the door. “I'll
fix things." Then to myself, "Goodness
gracious! What will he think of me as
a housekeeper? Never have I seen a
kitchen in such a state!”
In my hurry the night before, X had
forgotten to put the food away. Cold
baked potatoes adorned my pantry shelf.
Lettuce and mayonnaise decorated the
sink. The smell of cauliflower was over
it all. My kitchen was hot and close for
I had left the boiling burner turned ou
all night!
On the table, my expensive tenderloin
steak had turned from a pink hard sur
face to something flabby, dull red and
unappetizing. The heat had done it!
It was unfit to eat!
And I couldn't afford it in the first
place. And if I'd stayed at home and at
tended to my business as a wife it
wouldn't have happened. And if my
housekeeping was going to turn out like
that—
I began to sob softly. Dear old Jack
heard and came to me.
I pointed to the spoiled beef and sobbed
the harder because I could sob In his
arms.
“I hope you'll never hare anything
more important to weep about,” my hus
band whispered. "We'll live on rice until
we've made up for it!’
( Because my kitchen was .in disorder
and because X had cried so long, my
breakfast was late. Jack couldn't take
time to eat what he required. But he
didn't complain, dear boy !
As be kissed me good-by, he pare his
wrist watch a quick glance, then ter
minated our embrace suddenly. Never
had he left me so abruptly. I was hurt.
And Jack never noticed!
Later he phoned to me to come down
town for luncheon. I needed cheering, he
averred. And he had a surprise for me.
It was, indeed, a grand surprise. Jack
took me to his bank and opened a cheek
ing account In my name! One hundred
dolars to open it and fifty* for me to
spend any time. My first checking ac
count! A coveted dignity wan added to
my married state.
I never had earned any money. After
my father and mother had parted. Daddy
continued to send me a small a' ’-o
monthly. Only in order to mate
me a month. Daddy paid it in weekly in
stallments.
My own checking account:* Jack was
a generous and thoughtful husband. That

WANTS CROCUSES
AT WHITE HOUSE
D. A. R. Clean House for An
nual Pilgrimage of
Delegates.
By CONSTANCE DREXEL.
WASHINGTON, April s.—Of Mrs.
Harding's consultation with the head
White House gardener materializes as
It should and probably will, White
House lawns will be abloom next spring
wdth myriads of crncuses. Chatting in
formally at a tea for women newspaper
writers the other day, the mistress of
the White House told of her keen In
terest in the grounds. It seems that
there used to be plenty of crocuses. buU
the flock of sheep installed by President
Wilson to cut expenses by eating up
the grass also ate up all the crocus
bulbs. Hence passers by have missed
the lovely aspect of fields of white and
delicate mauve about the executive man
sion. so easily visible as a harbinger of
spring to every one chancing by.
Down toward the Potomac from the
White House, the magnificent building of
the Daughters American Revolution
is getting all freshened up for the annual
pilgrimage of the daughters which will
pour into Washington two thousand
strong for the annual convention open
ing April 17. It can’t be any other time,
because the constitution fixes It for the
week of April ID, even thought it inter
feres with Easter and conflicts with other
women’s conventions.
Asa little warning that members must
not come ready for mere social functions
and play, Mrs. George Maynard Miner in
a statement Just Issued from Memorial
Continnental Hall says;
“No organized work of any value to
the world was ever accomplished with
out 'business' and ‘business meetings.'
We are about to assemble in the biggest
business meeting of the society. Let us
bring to it the highest spirit of service.”
Though this is not a year for the al
ways hotly contested office of president
general, six rice president generals will
be elected and many questions as to the
future policies of the society will be dis
cussed.
In comparison, headquarters of other
women’s organizations pale to in
significance. That is becausd the na
tional headquarters of the D. A. R. was
built as a memorial and is an imposing
marble building. Besides the bfg
auditorium in which the plenary session#
of the recent arms conference were held,
there are magnificent suites of com
mittee rooms for the various States and
a large library.
The society is increasing so rapidly,
what with the increase In descendants
of revolutionary patriots, that a three
story office building has been going up
in the rear for the past few months. It
will be complete in time for the con
vention.
One of the President’s callers today
was Mrs. Charles U. Pa-tersou, wife
of Colonel Patterson, who told the Pres
ident women's committees who has
worked for the soldier during and since
the war are up In arms over the transfer
of tubercular veterans from Fox Hills
Hospital in New York, which is being
closed, to Seaview, on Staten Island.
Mrs. Patterson presented the President
with the report of a committee headed
by Mrs. Fannie Rogers of New York,
which visited Seaview on March 27.
The women think the tubercular patients
ought to be sent to the Adirondacks in
stead.
Mrs. Patterson, who was accompanied
by Senator Caider of New York, had
half an hour with the President, who
told her that he would present the wom
en's views to Colonel Forbes, director
of the veteran's bureau.
“The war is not over for these dis
abled boys, and we women ought to help
look after them just as we did during
the war,” said Mrs. Patterson after her
interview at the White House.
According to an announcement made
by the National Council for the Reduc
tion of Armaments, the number of their
affiliated organizations has grown from
seventeen In last September when the
council was formed to forty-five, the
number today. The latest State council
patterened on the national council Is the
Delaware council for the reduction of
armaments, formed in Wilmington last
week. A majority of the organizations
affiliated both with the National and
State councils are women's organizations.

■ .lufrW'l F we understood the
real nature of facial
__ Jaw . neuralgia, we should
IB be deeply concerned,
j Regard it as a
|ME IB danger signal —it
! M $9 CtftS may be one of the
H first signs that
JR something is rad-
Aj'x. Jm ieally wrong with
1 the body.
tUm Facial neuralgia Is
due to irritation of
the facial nerves.
————J This can be brought
about by any one of a number of causes.
| The source may be a diseased tooth,
and inflamed ear canal, a congested nose
I or inflammation in one of the cavities of
the face..
Such diseases as diabetes or malaria
will cause the facial neuralgia or some
times it Is merely the result of exposure
to cold or an injury.
BE EXAMINED.
A thorough examination is necessary
to establish unmistakably the real seat
of the trouble.
. Errors In refraction in the eyes have
been known to cause neuralgia as has
also inflammation of the eyelids.
For immediate relief of facial neuralgia
a hot water bottle may be placed over
the affeyted nerve or tender spot. When
the heat is removed the face should be
protected by dry wool.
Drugs and electricity are useful some
times in treating this ailment, but they
should be administered by a physician.
REGELATE DIET.
Regulation of the diet must be made.
Then people should take plenty of milk,
cream and butter. Gouty people should
confine themselves to a vegetarian and
fruit diet
Plenty of fresh air and carefully regu
lated exercises are necessary in over
coming the pain of this ailment. In long
standing cases, massage Is often bene
ficial.
Most cases clear up promptly when the
original source is discovered and treated.
