Prospects Good For Raising Money
For Erection of Old People's
I TTnm Km1fllTlP
MORE FUKDS ARE NEEDED
With the campaign well under way
the women who have enlisted in the
effort to raise sufficient funds to se
cure the erection of a modern build
ing for the accommodation of the
aged, feel greatly encouraged. During
the last week'they have been out on
a systematic canvass for funds and
while they are far short of the $40,000
required, they feel certain that they
are going to succeed.
The Old People's Home, an insti
tution operated under the direction of
the Women's Christian association,
and now located on Wirt street, just
east of Twenty-fourth, is not only
crowded to capacity and with a Ions
waiting list, but it is in such a dilapi
dated condition that ere long it must
be vacated. It is a large, three-story
wooden structure and it is in such a
wretched condition that unless ex
tensive repairs are made, it is likely
to be condemned by the city building
Inspector,
Meet With Fair Success.
Realizing the necessity for speedy
action, a short time ao the women
who have the affairs of the home in
charge, started out on a campaign to
raise sufficient money to pay for the
erection of a fireproof building on
the ten acres of ground deeded to the
association by George Joslyn, For
the purpose at least $40,000 will be
required and to carry out the ideas
of the architect and the members of
the building committee, at least an
other $10,000 could be used to good
advantage.
In carrying on their campaign the
women have been reasonably suc
cessful. They have secured one $1,000
subscription, this sum having been
given by Dr. Tilden, while two $500
subscriptions have been pledged, one
by the Omaha National bank and the
other by the Nebraska Telephone
company. There are several $100 sub
scriptions and many smaller ones.
However, it requires a great number
of small subscriptions to enable the
women to reach the goal that they
have in sight. .
Many Thousand Short.
Notwithstanding the fact that they
are still many thousands of dollars
short of the required amount to jus
tify the commencement of the erec
tion of a building on the new site,
the women who .are behind the
money-raising plan have every reason
to believe that they are going to suc
ceed. They have had the plans for
the proposed building drawn and are
of the opinion that they will be able
to commence construction during the
coming summer, completing the
structure next fall and have it ready
for occupancy before the coming of
another winter.
A number of wealthy men and
women of the city have intimated
that in the near future they will con
tribute teMhe fund for building and
with this money almost in sight and
the prospects of many smaller funds,
the movers in the project are feeling
exceedingly hopeful that the old peo
ple now jnmates of the old frame
building will be comfortably housed
before the snows of another winter
begin to fall.
The movers in the building project
announce that either pledges to pay
within one year or cash will be re
ceived. The treasurer of the building
committee is E. M. Morsman, 6J8
Keeline building. Payments and con
tributions may be made to him or to
Mrs. E. R. Hume, chairman of the
building committee, 904 North l-'orty-ointh
street.
Turns Car Into
Traveling Home
H. S. French of Muskegon, Mich.,
na jum rr-acneci nis nome alter a
trip from Miami. Fla. Mr. French
and his family made the long journey
in a leisurely fashion in a Dodge
Brothers' motor car. The important
part of the story is the clever way
m which Mr. French used his car as
a home for the tourists and not only
enjoyed the open, but did away with
the expense of stopping at hotels.
Before starting on the trip, a cook
ing outfit and tablcutensils of alumi
num were purchased, and a suit case
arranged for carrying this equipment
in "ie easiest manner. The back of
the front seat of the car was binned
and a large canvas cover fur the tar
was purchaed.
During the trip the party cooked
most of its meals in the open and
practically every night was spent in
the car. Hy letting down the hinged
back of the front seat a comfortable
bed was secured, and the canvas cover,
which reachrU to the ground all
around the car, protrvted the patty
from the elements.

A
BY HENRIETTA M. REES. cont Chicago recital of these two-
"nhuncing the program which
the Irish Fellowship club had ar
ranged for Saturday afternoon, May
6, was the miniature program of
Irish folk songs presented by Mr. and
Mrs. Thomas J. Kelly. One was im
pressed with the detailed care, and
Individuality of presentation that
were evident throughout the highly
intereHting program. Uoth were in
excellent voico and sang with that
artistic finish and elegance of style
that has placed them In the first rank
and through which they will always
find a warm reception in these sur
roundings. Mrs, Kelly opened with
'I'll Rock You to Rest' (a lullaby),
and Dr. Joyce's 'The Leprehaun,'
sung in a manner which evoked
much enthusiasm from the large as
semblage of listeners.
"Following this Mr. Kelly sang
'The Ninepenny Fidil,' arranged by
Hughes, In a most delightful mood,
after which Mrs. Kelly gave with ut
most charm the 'Hallinderry,' 'Gra
machree Molly' and 'The Shan Van
Voght' formed Mr. Kelly's next
group, In which the beauties of the
Old IriHh songs were well brought
out. 'Carrigdhoun,' 'Over Here' and
'The Gap in the Hedge,' cleverly in
terpreted, were the soprano's closing
numbers. The little explanatory re
marks which Mr. Kelly made before
each number made the program dou
bly interesting, and the audience was
extremely profuse in its applause for
these two artists. Mr. Kelly played
artistic accompaniments for Mrs.
Kelly, and Mary Brown ably sup
ported Mr. Kelly in his selections."
MEETING of much musical
importance was held at the
Omaha public library last
Tuesday evening, when sev
eral Omaha organists met
in rather informal manner
and arranged plans for a Nebraska
chapter of the American Guild of Or
ganists. For some years the writer
has been interested in this organiza
tion, and several of the prominent or
ganists have from time to time ex
pressed themselves as highly in favor
of a Nebraska chapter, but no definite
steps have heretofore been taken in
effecting an organization. Miss Kees
was made temporary chairman, and a
committee, consisting of Mr. J, H.
Simms, Mr. lien Stanley and Mr. Ver
non C. Bennett was appointed to con
fer with the leading organists in
other cities, inviting them to join in
the foundation of the Nebraska chap
ter. The American Guild of Organists
was founded in 18, and since then it
has grown and established chapters
in a great many states all through the
country, and in Canada. The objects
of the guild are "to raise the general
efficiency of organists by a system of
examinations and certificates, and by
the fostering of solo organ playing;
to provide opportunities for inter
course among organists; for the dis
cussion of questions of interest con
nected with their work, and for hear
ing model performances of sacred
compositions." With the establish
ment of a chapter in Nebraska op
portunities will be offered organists
desiring to do so to take the exam
inations in this state. Guild recitals
will be given and an extra incentive
will be presented to organists in their
work. The organ is called the
king of instruments and its powers
and possibilities are altogether too lit
tle known to music lovers in general.
It is one of the oldest instruments,
tracing its history back to the fifth
century. Of late years many improve
ments have been made, both in its
scope and construction, adapting it
more and more for use in concert
work, besides raising its value as an
instrument for religious worship par
excellence.
A Nebraska chapter of the Guild
will do much to raise the standard
of organ music in this community
and have a salutary effect in other
lines of musical endeavor as well.
The Omaha organists interested in
the meeting last week were lien Stan
ley, J. 11. Simms, Vernon C. Bennett,
Martin Bush, Kenneth Widenor, Mrs.
E. R. Zabriskie, Mrs. F. F. Pitts, Miss
Eloise West, Miss Grace Slabaugh
and Miss Henrietta Kees. Many
plans for the future were briefly out
lined and arrangements made for a
second meeting at a near date.
Frances Nauh, whose successes
during her first American tour have
aroused much real Interest through
out the country, has been secured
for a pair of concerts with the Boston
Symphony orchestra in Boston for
February 22 and 23, also for a New
York appearance with the New York
Philharmonic orchestra, and will be
heard in full recitals in New York,
Boston and Chicago, as well as in
many other cities throughout the
east, west and north. One of the
features of Miss Nash's second sea
son will be her re-engagements. She
has a number of these at presont and
still more pending. Miss Hopper,
who has just passed through Omaha
011 her return from a southern trip
in the interest of Miss Nash, says:
"It is a real pleasuro to labor in
the interest of such an artist, who
wins a host of friends at every ap
pearance, who has noj once failed to
meet all hopes and predictions and
who creates so much love in her au
diences." Exploited under a large heading,
and accompanied with an excellent
picture of Mrs. Kelly, the Musical
Courier said the following of the ve
in the "Musical America" for May
IJ, 1916, we read this of Mme. Marie
Sundclius: "She is one of America's
most gifted concert sopranos, who
received her training entirely in this
country, though of Swedish birth.
The engagement of Marie Sundelius
for the Metropolitan Opera company,
season 1916-1917, following a com
paratively short, but brilliantly suc
cessful concert career, marks some
what a departure in the annals of that
institution. Site has been specifically
engaged for the roles of Nedda,
Misraela and Muselta.
During her brief career the soprano
has sung return engagements with
the Boston, Minneapolis and St.
Louis orchestras; has been soloist
with the New York Oratorio society,
the Chicago Apollo club and many
other prominent choruses, besides en
gagements in a number of important
festivals. In a recent festival at
Springfield, Mass., May 4 and 6, she
sang the soprano part in Wolf Fer
rari's "La Vita Nuova" with the Chi
cago Symphony orchestra. She also
appeared in artists' night program at
the same festival, when Mme. Sun
dclius and Giovanni Martinelli were
the soloists and met with great ova
tions. Mme. Sundelius will be the so
prano at the coming festival of the
American Union of Swedish Singers
next month.
Mr. Karl Tunberg. a well known
pianist of Seattle, Wash., is visiting
m the city for a few days. Mr. Tun
berg is a former Nebraska boy, whose
parents still live at Hooper and "who
studied piano in both Omaha and
Lincoln before going abroad. During
iiis Omaha visit Mr. Tunberg has
been staying at the residence of his
cousin, Mr. G. L. K. Klingbeil on
Lincoln avenue, and Thursday even
ing Mr. Tunberg, assisted by Mr. and
Mrs. Henry Cox. gave an informal
recital there. Mr, Tunberg played
the Beethoven "Sonata Appassion
ata," the "Magic Fire" music from
the "Walkyre," Wagncr-Brassin, and
other numbers by Moszkowski, Kul
lak and ChopMn. Mr. Cox played num
bers from Kreisler, Lemare and other
well known composers. Since Mr.
Tunberg's return to his native coun
try he has held important positions
in leading conservatories and has re
ceived many flattering endorsements
of his work. He settled in Seattle in

The death of Max Reger, an
nounced in the musical journals of
the last week, comes as a sad surprise
to those of Omaha's musical colony
who know this celebrated composer
through his many compositions.
Reger was known to be one of the
most prolific writers of modern times,
composing for voice, piano, organ,
orchestra and, In fact, in almost all
fields of the art, Regcr's death comes
In his forty-seventh yesr from pa

ever see a
better reason for buying a
STUDEBAKER than THIS?
Just for a minute, let's forget this talk of Values and prices and
, 'H. P." and "r. p. m." and all'the usual reasons for buying this
or that car. Let's take another angle on it this "Directory of
Orphans." And not from the " where to buy parts " side of it
that's only incidental but from the big, basic, underlying
reason that such lists have to be published the very fact that
there are so many car manufacturers who gave up business.
You can appreciate that to stay in this business, a maker of
cars MUST give lOOft value and to give a 10O' value, he
must have the ideals, the resources, the manufacturing fa
cilities. If he lacks them, he goes into lists like this.
And you can also appreciate that YOU, the buyer, with all of
your knowledge of cars, have to tale 90 To of what you pay for
in a car on the maker's say-so.
If that's the case, isn't this "Directory of Orphans' the strong
est imaginable reason for YOUR buying a Studebaker a car
from a manufacturer who has been in business for 64 years
who ranks as one of the world's great manufacturing insti.
tutions-whose financial resources and manufacturing facility
are unexcelled by any other maker and whose daily incrcas
ing VOLUME and sales prove VALUE as nothing else can?
We Invite you to see the cars that will nevrr U "orjihdns."
