From Rouen, France, where Amer
ican, base hospital No. 21 is located,
comes i letter to Mr. and Mrs. Wil
liam F. Baxter, from their cousin,
Lieutenant Arthur W. Proetz, St.
Louis, who numbers many Omahans
among his friends. Young: Proetz went
abroad in May. He is 3 graduate of
Washington university and has writ
ten two light operas in collaboration
with Hugh Ferris.
Lieutenant Proetz is using his tal
ent, too, in petting up entertainments
for the soldiers and in his letters to
his family in St. Louis has asked them
to send on his scores and music,
-since any one able to entertain is en
roled to do his share.
The Baxters' letter is an acknowl
edgement of a box of goodies sent
frcm here. It follows:
Package From Home a Joy.
"The packaee from home is one of
the greatest institutions in the army.
Really you have no idea what joy a
box of candy can spread over here.
You may think you have, but it's even
more than you think. A shout went
up when the can of coffee appeared.
Ration coffee is nothing to boast of.
The only reason why no shout went
up for the teeth was that everybody's
teeth were deep in the candy, for
ration tea is, if anything, worse than
the coffee. But it's all in the game an
we don't mind.
"Everything over here is going ex
ceptionlly well, for it didn't take long
to get into the routine here. What
pleases us most is that I'm getting
most of the ear, ncse and throat
work in this immediate district,
which, of course, is what I expect to
do 'apres la guerre.' I'm not permit
ted to tell you how many patients I'm
looking after. This is the coldest, wet
test summer resort I have ever visited.
We sleep under two and three
blankets always, and it rains perhaps
a third of the time.
Meets All Kinds of People.
"We're constantly .meeting all kinds
of people colonels with Indian stories
right out of Kipling-Philippine veter
ans; nobility and quite the reverse;
Tommies. Jacks, Hindoos, Russians,
Belgians, Siklis and Gurkas opera
singers entertaining troops, and col
lege professors running Y. M. C. A.'s
Ours is a Cambridge professor of
Arabic, Sanscrit and theology), dukes
and demimondaines, doctors, diplo
mats and deck hands,
"The mails are irregular and often
parcels arrive ahead of letters of the
same date. I was surprised to sec
your parcel come through without
any soht of a customs ticket. Of
course, we pay no duty, but there is
usually a ticket attached, neverthe
less. It was fortunate for rne that
you parcel was put up in tin, etc., for
other packages in the same mail were
badly crushed. I have had no mail
from home for almost three weeks,
but no doubt it will come in a bunch
one of these days.
"Of course detailed Information is
barred and our kodaks are temporar
ily locked up, but I can say that we
are as happy as people upon this kind
of errand can be. I wouldn't have
stayed home for anything. Write
when you can, letters help a lot."
Farewell Reception to
Pastor, Rev. Tiitus Lowe
Next Monday evening at the First
Methodist church a public farewell
reception will be tendered Rev. Titus
Lowe1, who departs Tuesday morning
for i France, where he will work
among the boys at the front under
the auspices of the war board of the
National Young Men's Christian as
sociation. This reception will be for
Rev. Mr. Lowe's friends, regardless
of church affiliation. Addresses will
be by John C Wharton for the city
at large; C. A. Goss for laymen and
Rev. U. G. Brown for Methodism.
Rev. Mr. Lowe will occupy his pul
pit both morning and evening Sun
day, which will be his last appearance
in the pulpit before his departure for
Europe. . .

MUSIC
Mrs. Clark's Recital.
Mrs. Frederick J. Clark had the dis
tinction of giving the first recital of
the season, when she appeared last
evening at the Happy follow club in
a song recital, the proceeds of which
were divided between the Ladies' so
ciety of the First Congregational
church, for the building fund and the
Red Cross.
Mrs. Clark, wife of the pastor of
the First Congregational church, is a
newcomer to Omaha and this is the
first time she has appeared in recital
here. She possesses a lovely contral
to voice of both range and resonance.
Her low tones, especially are full of
depth and richness. She presented a
program which contained a fair share
of old, favorites as well as several nov
elties. Among the latter and one of
the most attractive songs on the
program was an old fourteenth cen
tury gem, which was interpolated be
fore a group Of lullabies. Two Franz
songs at the beginning of the program
and "The Dove," by Landon Ronald,
contained much good tone work, and
were especially remembered by the
writer.
Among the favorites presented
were "His Lullaby," by Carrie Jacobs
Bond, sung with rhythmical abandon,
and Nevin's "Rosary." A patriotic
note was struck in the last group,
which cotnained the "Marseillaise"
and "The Star-Spangled Banner,"
every one joining in the chorus of the
last verse.
Mrs. Clark was received with cor
diality and responded to applause and
flowers with several encores. Mme.
Borglum accompanied in her cus
tomary pleasurable mannehr. There
was no admission fee charged for the
recital, but a voluntary offering was
contributed, which, owing to the large
audience present and the worthiness
of the benefit, undoubtedly brought a
neat sum to the treasury of each or
ganization., H. M. R.
. ;
The Seventh is now giving skirmish
drills at Rourke park. Drills will be
held every Sunday morning. Tues
day night 300 men of the , Seventh
were present.
While Chief of Police H. W. Dunn
and his wife were entertaining at a
theater party in h nor of Mrs. L. A. I
DeLanney who is visiting in Omaha
from Belgrade. Neb., they were un
aware that a large number of their
friends were gathered at the chief's j
home, ".waiting their return, to sur- i
prise them on the event of their sil
ver wedding
Upon their return home, the chief
noticed lights in the house and with
revolver in hand, proceeded to inves
tigate, thinking burglars had invaded
his home. To hi surprise, he disco v
cred a large number of his friends to
celebrate the anniversary.

Miss Ursula Dietrich, concert pianist, has been appearing
with marked success in a number of cities throughout the
United States, including New York, Chicago, Cincinnati,
Detroit, Toledo, Louisville, Denver, Salt Lake City, San Fran
cisco, Los Angeles, etc., before the leading clubs and organiza
tions of these cities.
Miss Dietrich appears in connection with the Artapollo,
and in addition to displaying her own artistry and charming
personality, shows the wonderful possibility of this latest im
provement for the reproduction of piano music. Alternating
with the Artapollo, Miss Dietrich has conclusively demon
strated that it is impossible to distinguish between the hand
playing of a finished artist and the Artapollo 's reproduction.
Playing "duets with herself," this dainty artiste is ap
pearing in the first numbers ever written for two pianos
, played by one artist, for the Artapollo 's reproduction of Miss
Dietrich's playing is just as much "her own" as the actual
hand playing on the second instrument.
Miss Dietrich will give daily recitals from 2 to 5 daily at
our warerooms where a complete line cf Apcllos and Artapoilc3
are on dlsplaly.
Publio cordially invited.

Paige Beauty Is
Distinctive Beauty
No 'matter where you may see a. Paige car on the
road or parked among other cars you will recog
nize it instantly. Paige design and Paige lines are
distinctive.
These cars are not "conspicuous" or "freakish" but it
is that well bred, refined tone to the Paige which
makes it unforgetable.
If, for instance, you have seen a Paige Six pass down
the street, you know precisely what we mean. It
stands out from other motor cars with an individu
ality all its own.
Quite unconsciously you will find yourself saying,
"There goes a Paige Six." And don't deny it, you
utter these words either with the pnde or des're ot
ownership. .'
Why not visit our dealer today. He will gladly arrange
to give you and the other members of your family
the kind of demonstration that will solve your
automobile problem once and for alL
