The ladies had arranged one of their always dainty and delicious re pasts and which was served in a splendid manner and made a fitting start of the evening's program. j The earlier part of the evening was given over to music and the now be-1 coming famous "Nebraska" song of B. A. Rosencrans was given and which made a pleasing hit with the men as it has in all of the places where it has been heard. The members of the supper party, had the opportunity of hearing one of the most promising young musi-l cians of the city. Charles Newasek.j whose piano work stamps him as a j real musician and who gave the ex pression and beauty in his playing and! reflected the greatest credit on his. splendid training and love of music.; This young man, a student in the, high school has remarkable talent j and his two selections, "Prelude in! C Minor" by Rachmaninoff and tho transposition of "Old Black Joe" were both splendidly offered. Not the least interesting features of the evening was the visit of the girl's glee club of the high school. this organization of young ladies of the school giving a group of four; numbers in a manner that was a, real revelation to the greater part of; the members of the supper party and j a realization of the splendid things that the music department of the high school is accomplishing under the leadership of Miss Ruth Lind say, the music supervisor of the city schools. In each of the selections the thirty girls of the club gave beautiful harmonies and their selec tions were all received with the heartiest appreciation by the audi ence. Miss Mildred Hall served as accompanist for the glee club. The supper party also greeted Dr. C. H. Hayes and Dr. L. R. Kidwell. of the state agricultural department and N. H. Morrow, owner of the Mor row Hatchery in this city who were present at the meeting. The speaker of the evening was W. R. Watson, managing editor of the Omaha World-Herald, who was fittingly introduced by Toastjnaster Searl S.

These had not tended to lower the opportunities the boys and girls had and the oppor tunity still existed for any child to c'ay to reach the highest office of the land. j The greater part of the talk of Mr. Watson was given informally of his observations on his European trip and especially of the situation In Eng land, which country he visited at the time of the great strike that had af fected every line of labor in the kingdom. The general strike occur red the day the Watson party landed in England and he detailed the won derful manner in which the strike was handled, the fact that there was not a shot fired or violence witness ed in the great struggle that had reached every line of activity and he contrasted this with many similar American movements where there had been shootings and rioting. The English had in their quiet fashion lived through the strike calmly. I fought the issues with patience and calmne? on both sides. One inter esting spot that he had found was jthat of the great law making insti tutions and the homes of the royalty standing beside Hyde Park where the wildest agitators were allowed to harmlessly explode their theories without damage. The speaker also ; touched on the love of the English man for the established government ;and the institution of royalty that j was one of the cherished features of the British life and which the j people liked. The Englishman res jpected the Institution of government and the London policeman was the respected man in his sphere and did not have to resort to violence in handling his office but was respect ed and held in friendly relations with the public. The speaker con trasted this with the fact that a few days after his return a citizen had been shot out at North Platte by an officer while traveling along the highway. 1 In Rncland na nn tho continent All local news is in the Jonrnal.

HAVE HAD GOOD CONFERCENES Two hundred twent-thce local eadors of boys and girls clubs at tended the first round of conlerences that have just been completed In state extension club workers in the state. Most of these leaders were new n club work and were benefited greatly by the explanations and sug gestions given in the conferences The exchange of ideas between lead ers themselves and the ideas that could be passed on from one county to another by the state club workers helped the prospective leaders of 1927 clubs. The second round of conference is now starting. The same state work ers are going back to the same coun- ies again this spring, and they plan to make another visit to each coun- y next fall. With the growth of club work in the state, this system of county conferences of local leaders is the only one thru which help can be given to the boys and girls by the few state club workers that Nebraska has.
