Mr. Eddy is widely known for his organ activities, which have extended over a period of many years. He is known not only for his playing, but for the many arrangements and compositions which he has written for the organ. Hit transcriptions and arrangements are invaluable in the repertory of the organist. It is interesting to note that Mr. Eddy will play a number by J. Frank Frysinger of Lincoln, all the more so because Omaha will have the opportunity of hearing Mr. Frysinger in organ recital the very next week. It is a cause for rejoicing that now that there is such a beautiful organ for these recitalists to play upon, in Omaha, that we are to have the un expected pleasure of Mr.,Eddys visit. rollowing is the program: 1.

Many preparations are being made for the convention of the Nebraska State Music Teachers' association, which will be held in Omaha Apr 1. 2 and 3, with headquarters at the Hotel Fontenelle. This is the second session of the Nebraska State Music Teachers' association, an organization having been effected last year at Lin coln, where the first meetings were held. James Edward Carnal, chair man of the program committer for this year, has been very busy lately, arranging the activities for the various meetings which will take place, in Omaha. Although all programs are not thoroughly made up as yet a cry good idea of them can be obtained from the -schedule so far completed. Every session of the convention will open with the singing of na-.:cnal songs, and every session will contain also music by either visiting or local muscians, or both. The opening meeting will be held Monday evening at 7:30. After ring ing the national anthems, an adchess of welcome will be given by M?yor James C. Dahlfflan, with response by Willard Kimball of Lincoln, president of the association. A soprano solo will be sung by Mrs. Lena Ellsworth Dale, Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Berryman will play a two piano number and possibly one or two other m.is;cal numbers will be given. Following the musical program a reception will be held, in honor of all those attending. Tuesday morning, April 2, a' 9:30 a general session will be opened by invocation by Rev. Dr. Jenks. At this time the appointment of various com mittees will take place, and the report of the committee on university cedits will be presented. A musical program will follow upon which Mrs. Olive Strong of Kearney will play a r'ano number, Mrs. Florence Basler Painter, soprano, will sing, and Miss Henrietta Rees wilhread a paper entitled Whet ting the Musical Appetite," after which there will be a discussbi of it, and the writer" intends to f stay right there and hear what is said.

Wagoner, pianist, of Omaha; Mr. Carnal,, bass, of Omiha, and Mr. Carl Steckelberg of Lincoln. This will be followed by a proiiam of Nebraska composers. The pro gram committee is anxious to get in touch with more of the composers who live in the state, and requests that any information concerning them j be sent at once to Mr. Carnal. 513 McCague building, Omaha. The after noon session will close with a discus sion of public school music led by H. C. Ferguson erf Lincoln, Neb. At 7:30 Tuesday evening Mr. J. Frank Frysinger of Lincoln, assisted by Louise Jansen-Wylie, and Mrs. E. R. Zabriskie, accompanist, will give an organ recital upon the beautiful Millard memorial organ in the First Presbyterian church. Mr. Frysinger is known all over the country by his organ compositions and locally as the organist of one of the leading Lin coln churches and head of the organ department of the University School of Music as well. This recital will be open to the public without charge, al though an offering will be taken for the support of the Red Cross fund of the Nebraska base hospital, which has its headquarters at this church. Mr. Frysinger's reputation has preceded him and there is much interest con nected with his coming recital. Mrs. Wylie is well known as a soloist and teacher of this city and as soprano soloist of this church. Wednesday morning, opening at 9:30. the meeting will be taken up with the election of officers, selection of the next meeting place and other incidental business. Following this a short musical program will be fur nished, Elsie Griffith of Columbus' being among the participants. On Wednesday there will also be two in teresting papers, "Problems of Child Education," by Prof. Carl Beutel, dean of the School of Music of Wesleyan university, with -discussions and a paper by Prof. Jacob Singer of Lin coln. At 4 o'clock it is planned to take the visiting teachers for an automobile ride through the city. At 6 o'clock a banquet will be held, at which Mr. J. H. Simms. prominent Oniaha organ ist and teacher, will preside as toast master,' thus assuring the success of this entertainment. A 8 o'clock Mr. Sydney Silber of Lincoln will give the closing recital. Mr. Silber is widely I. iown as a pianist and if I am not Leader in Work of State Music T eachers AM0i?AMZr PHOTO J. Edward Carnal mistaken this will be his iirst appear ance in Omaha. This is the general outline of the meetings which will be followed for the most part. There are certain ar rangements for numbers which have not as yet been completed, which will be announced next week. Anyone who is or has been engaged in the active practice of music may become an ac tive member of this organization upon the payment of the yearly dues, $1.50, if recommended in writing by two active members. An associate mem bership is also provided for, thus al lowing interested music lovers to en joy all the privileges except the right to vote and hold office, upon the pay ment of $1 yearly dues. This money should be sent as early a possible to Mr. Jean G. Jones, secretary, 1804 Farnam street. This seems like a very small fee, considering the many interesting programs premised, and a large associate membership should re sult., Ben Stanley, dean of the Nebraska chapter, American Guild of Organists, asks all members of the guild to at tend in a body the recital to be given by J. Frank Freysinger of Lincoln at the First Presbyterian church, April 2, in connection with tb.2 Ne braska Music Teachers' association convention.

This students program of the Tuesday Musical club is an an nual affair. It is looked forward- to by many of the members and by many teachers, and the places upon the pro gram are the desired goal of many students. The Tuesday Musical club will present Frieda Hcmpel, leid:ng soprano of the Metropolitan Opera company, in a recital at the Boyti the ater on Thursday evening, April 11, at 8:15 o'clock. Miss Hempel has he last week announced her engagement to Will D. Kahn, a prominent New York business man. The Tuesday Musical club is trying a new scheme for the conveniem-.e of their members in securing tickets to obviate the necessity of long sta:i-' ng phvline. This is a mail order sysem. The following announcements are being mailed with the Frieda Her.pel tickets to members: iiThe enclosed Frieda Hempel ticket must be ex changed at the box office for a re served seat on April 8 or 9, or it may be mailed to the Boyd theater any time between now and April 6.

"CVEET Spring full of sweet days and roses," sang a poet centuries ago. Any modern singer of rhymes would certainly receive a joyous inspiration to visit John Bath's flower shop at 1804 Farnam these Spring days. Flowers bloom everywherebut what one particu larly notes is theif freshness, their colorftilness. And that's the secret to Mr. Bath's success the reason why he is known about town as "The Careful Florist." Flis flowers afe al ways the best obtainable: in fact, Mr. Bath would rather not fill an order than send out flowers that were not perfect. If you'll order your Easter cordage from him, you'll be sure of having one arranged in a most ar tistic way. His telephone is Doug las 3000. Parasols are wondrous things of beauty this Spring. One seen in a store window of corded crepe de chine finished with tiny roWs of knife pleating, has large velvety violets placed here and there to ornament the top. V "PlIILDHOOD being the happi- est time of .life, shouldn't it be the time to wear the prettiest frocks?' said Miss Lena Kohen, in charge of the Children's Section of Brandcis Stores. Miss Kohcn's 15 years' ex perience studying the whims and needs of the "Small Daughter" has certainly given her this viewpoint, so when she goes East to buy garments for Omaha's Younger Generation she knows just where the sweetest things imaginable can be obtained and Miss Kohen just loves kiddies and kiddies' clothes, "fwas Chil dren's Day yesterday, and Miss Ko hen was "awfully busy," but she was kind enough to trot out the very pret tiest things for my inspection. "These are Dorothy frocks," she said, displaying the darlingest dresses of linen and imported cotton crepes, in lovely colors and with exquisite hand touches, "and' they are the same little frocks worn by New York's Four Hundred's small daughters you no doubt have seen them mentioned in "Vogue." Dorothy frocks are priced $6.95 to $12.50, for ages 6 to 14. I was also shown some -lovely fluffy dancing and party frocks of Geor gette and rhiffon, and some crispy white organdies and dainty voiles for Confirmation and Graduation Three-piece costumes are very strongly featured in Paris as well as American creations. Red Cross Auctioneer Sells Flock of Wild Geese A fanner at Oakland, Neb., bought a flock of wild geese on the wing the other day for $50, according to II. E. Fredrickson, who has just returned from Oakland. Of course the geese have not yet been delivered to the purchaser. The contract of sale did not require deliv ery, and the last seen of the geese they were still winging it northward. Nevertheless the farmer paid his money cheerfully, for the proceeds of the sale went to the Red Cross. A Red Cross auction was in progress in the streets of Oakland when the "honk, honk" of wild geese attracted some attention. The auctioneer indeed a verv happy Polly person. signs.
