Library Chats "Glad Christmas comes and every Hearth makes room to give him wel come.” When Dickens read his Christ mas carol in Boston In 1867 he estab lished the old English custom in our country. And today there are lhany households that always read one of Dickens Christmas stories on Christ mas eve. The spirit of good will, combined with loving memories of the past and joyful hopes for future days, prevail In his stories of this season of gladness and the most popular are "The Chimes.” "Seven Poor Travel ers.” “A Child s Dream of a Star.” “The Holly Tree,” “What Christmas Is as lie Grow Older."! "A Christ mas Ti*ee and a Christmas Carol.” The library invites the general pub lic of Omaha to a free lecture by John G. Niehardt, our poet laureate, in the museum of ths library at 4 o’clock Sunday afternoon, January 14. Through the courtesy of ths museum committee this lecture is free to the public and a general invitation Is ex tended to all who wish to hear Mr. Niehardt. Florence Kilpatrick Mixter, a form er Omaha girl, has a charming group of five poems in the last issue of The Midland. There is a haunting heart throb In her verse and the style is very pleasing. Margot Asquith has finished the third nnd fourth volumes of her auto biography and her daughter, the Prin cess Bihesco, has written a new book called “Balloons.” "The Dial” has awarded Its *2,000 prize for able work for the year 1922 to T. S. Eliot whose last work. "Waste Land,” a lengthy poem, will be published in the spring. Robert Keable, the author of “Simon Called Peter" and “The Mother of All Living.” has gone to the south seas for material for a new book. The North Side branch library was one year old December 23. Its growth has been remarkable. Three thousand, six hundred and forty books are on Its shelves. There are 1,871 borrowers of which 1,231 are children. The dally circulation averages 196 books and the vearly circulation is 59,550. The li brary hopes to open branches in Ben son and florence as soon as the city makes adequate appropriation. Much inquiry has arisen over the quotation, “Fight, my men—I am hurt but I am pot slain, I'll lie me down and bleed a whUe. And then I’ll rise and fight again,’' used by Sir James M. Barrie in his rectoral address at St. Andrews. These stirring lines occur in "The Ballad of Sir Andrew Barton.” which is included in the "Oxford Book of Ballads.” “The Second Empire,” by Philip Que dalla is written Jn an ironic and whim sical vein and is acclaimed by critics' the best book since Strachey's “Queen Victoria.” The library will soon have this book for circulation. The recent death of Alice Meyncll, the English verse writer, recalls the fact that In 1913 she received the sec ond largest vote for poet laureate of England,’ ranking second to IClpling. She is survived by two children who are writers of note, Viola, the novelist, and Everard, the Journalist. The li brary has her essays, "Hearts of Con trovery” and "The Children,” book of P9emsr H. G. Wells lias added 20 pages to his "Outline of History.” It is only Wells who could put the civil war. Abraham Lincoln, bolslievlsts, the faa cistl, Graeco and Turkish wars and Woodrow Wilson in 20 puges.

White tropic forests on the pane against the dawn-streaked sl(ies. The awe of faith unhesitant in lifted childish eyes; The spluttered, spicy, leasing joy of kitchen-fragrance sweet, . .. The sting of frost upon his face, the snow-creak 'nealh his feet; The swish of runners, songs of bells, the laughing-echoed call From drifted hilltops, sparkling white; the blue sky folding all; The holly-berried table top, the feasting and the fun. With Christmas ribbons strewing all until the day is done; t The hush of candle-lighting time, the hearth-flame flickered red. The warm soft clasp of clinging hands up shadowed stairs to bed; The crib-side talk that slacks and stills on stumbled drowsy not. The love that stings beyond your eyes, and catches in your throat; The hope, the fears, the tenderness, the Mary-praycr you pmy— Who has not loved a little child, he knows not Christmas Day.

True art expressions. • • • Smart new shades of brown usurp the place of black in the costumes shown in fashion revues; nut, toast, antelope, cocos and carmel. Just a Lfttle of Everything wy-wHEN one sees a 4-year-old \A/dressed lh a quaint print In blue * »and white, one wonders if any thing could be so attractive—until one secs a grownup dressed in a morning frock of sateen In red and white. • • • Fresh from Paris are the cun ningest handbags ever; one repre senting Pierott and the other Pier rette. Pierrot has flame red hair, which contrasts sharply with tiis rich black velvet costume, and Pierrette has a paneled frock over pantalets and a dashing white ruche. The costumes of Pierrot and Picr rett make the bags and the quaint little heads with rakish caps arc mounted on the bag frames. Arms and feet are attached to the little figures aud altogether the effect is quite gay and alluring—and inside the bags are very capacious reticules. Pierrot and Pierrette are very much the thing at the moment, in the way of handbags to carry with afternoon costumes—and, of course, the de butantes are particularly enthusiastic over these odd and unusual bags. * * * In the matter of being well-dress ed, years are no longer a consid eration. The gay young flapper and her gay young grandmother may have interchangeable wardrobes with perfect propriety. In the frocks of today the mature woman is for ever young and the dress of the icune fillc establishes the mode. • • * The sleeve situatipn is diverting. Some of .the newest frocks show sleeves tljat reach well over the band, sheathing the arm closely from shoulder to wrist. Others show wide sleeves that swing clear of the arm as soon as they leave the loose arm hole. Others show sleeves chopped off close to the shoulder—afternoon frocks, with which are worn out of doors black kid gloves reaching just above the^ elbow. Still other frocks show sleeves that cover the under part of the arm, but are noth ing but a couple of straps across the top or outside of the arm. The idea seems to be tha( we may suit our own taste and our own type of arm in our choice of sleeve. * * * White crepe de chine is one of the fabrics well accepted at present for. frocks for very little girls. It washes and is soft and dainty, and really is a very good choice by any but the mother who has an inherent or con stitutional dislike of silk fabrics for little children. • * • Crepes prevailing fabric fashion: Crepe Mystic is softly lustrous as the folds change exposing a winding laciness of design; Crepe Lczard has tiny wrinkles of exceeding delicacy: Crepe Savoy is boldly pebbled over its entire surface; Kitten’s Ear Faille is unusually soft with a very s definite corded weave; Iona Crepe lias tiny indentations much too small to be classed with the pebbled crepes; Snow Flake Crepe catches the light on large designs irregularly shaped, which cover its lengths. Crepes of supple grace, beloved fabric of the mode. • • • Those adorable little pcrfumcttesl Who could resist having a nest of them upon the dressing table? In many colors and in as t^any odors, these tiny flagons allow one to choose the exact fragrance express ive of one’s mood. Today, it may be something heavy, almost heady, vampish tomorrow a whiff as deli cate as the wafted scent of an old fashioned phlox. This morning, it is violets: in the afternoon, roses that ane selects. Economical, too, since the essences arc of the best and large bottles would tax the purse more heavily, by fajr, than docs the collec tion of baby ‘‘jugs.’’ Architectural Drawing Kit* of Inter est to School Boys, Architects and Newspaper Men.
