, Wahoo Boy Leads N. Y. Symphony in Own Composition Howard Harold Hanson, born at ahoo. Neb., In 1898, conducted the New York Symphony Orchestra last Sunday during the performance of his own composition, a symphonic poem entitled "North and West.” The young composer la a nephew of Fred Eckstrom of this city; 2201 l.othrop street, and the son of Mr. and Mrs. Mans Hanson, Wahoo. He ludled at Mother college. Wahoo, and later went to New York, where ho graduated from the Institute of Musi cal Art. Mater he taught at North western university, which he left to become dean of the Conservatory of the Pacific at San Jose, Cal. Two years ago he won the first Prix de Home In composition, and so has been •luliard Fellow at the American Acad emy in Rome for two years. Resides the symphonic poem just performed by the New York Sym phony, the young Nebraskan has written a "Nordic Symphony,” five symphonic poems, the score to the California Forest Play of 1920, a num ber of chamber music works and ar ticles on theory and acoustics. in explaining the work performed last Sunday. Mr. Hanson writes: "The Program of ‘North and West' is en tirely subjective and symbolic in character. ‘North,’ to me. means both the land of my fathers, Sweden, and that influence in art and letters which we term Nordic: the qualities of austere stoicism and hrutal vigor min gled witlr that sombernes mysticism and melancholy which characterize the north. ‘West’ to rue means the spirit of youth and romance—speficial i^*iy, California.” The work is in three sections. The first, symbolizing the “North,” opens yvith a melancholy theme on the polios; an austere second theme en ters. sung by voices In unison with a rhythmic percussion of trombones and tuba; a vigorous third theme ap pears and resolves Itself Into a virile dance; the three are developed to a climax In which the first theme, for tissimo, dominates the others. , The second section, "West," opens softly with a gentle theme sung by tvro voices accompanied by three hellos. Reenter the four Nordic themes which battle for supremacy and finally, after a dramatic pause and a cry of voices, emerge un changed. The work is written for s full score orchestra with the addition of human voices used as orchestral instrimients —a feature unusual even In this age of musical experimentation, although by no means unique. The performance las* week was heard by several members of the Eck strom family now In New York, In eluding Carl Eckstrom. who Is play ing in "The Cat and the Canary;” Dr. Edward Eckstrom and Mrs. Ernest W. Eovejoy. Lincoln Day Banquet by Order of Does. A Lincoln day banquet will be given February 13, at the Chamber of Com merce. by the Grand lodge of B. P. O. Does.

My Secrets Of Beauty Are Your*, If You Wi*h By Edna ff allace Hod per 1 made myself a famous beauty, and that beauty brought me glory. I have kept that beauty to a grand old age. After 40 years in the lime light, I still look a girl of 19. These facts are due to helps I found through years of world-wide searching. They are, I believe, the best beauty helps in existence. No one I know "has, in other ways, at tained any like results. So 1 have had these helps pre nared and placed where all may get them. And I hone to see them bring to millions the benefits 1 got. Just four will do These beauty helps comprise 32 different factors. But great experts have combined them in four prepa rations. And all are sold at mod est prices which every girl and woman can afford. One is my White Youth Clay. A clean, refined clay, vastly more effil cient than ordinary clavs. A clay perfected by French experts through 20 years of scientific study. My White Youth Clay brings a new complexion, rosy, clear and clean. It combats all lines and wrinkles. No woman who once tries it will ever go without it. It costs 50 cents and $ 1. Youthful bloom My Youth Cream is a cold cream like nothing else you know. It con tains both lemon and strawberry. French experts have embodied in it the best skin helps they know. Apply it after the clay. Also use it as a night cream, also daytimes as a powder base. Keep it ever on the skin to feed and whiten, firm, soft en and protect. The price is <0 cents. > My Facial Youth is a liquid cleanser, now used by leading beau ty experts the world over. It eon tains no animal, no vegetable fat. The skin caryiot absorb it. So it cleans to the depths, then departs. And the dirt and refuse nothing else can reach comes with it. Great beauty experts chrfbge $3 for it. Mine sells for 75 cents. The hair you envy My glorious hair is due to my Hair Youth. It is heavy, silky, lus trous, and grows finer every year. Falling hair, dandruff and gray hairs are unknown to me. My Hair Youth is applied with an eye dropper, directly to the scalp. It does not muss the hair. It keeps the scalp like a well-kept garden where hair roots can flourish. It costs 50 rents and $1 with eye dropper. All druggists and toilet counters supply these preparations, exactly ns I use them. My Beauty book comes with each. They will bring you rich rewards. If you want more beauty, longer youth, these are the best ways science knows to get them.
