in Omaha on his way to the coast and
ha9 consented to give this recital. 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.

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. The
meeting will adjourn for lunch at 12
o'clock.
Beginning at 2 in the afternoon a
miscellaneous program will be given
by Edith L. 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

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. Mr. Freysinger is sub
dean .of the Nebraska chapter and an
organist and composer of national
reputation. He will receive a earty
welcome at the hands of the guild.

the Tuesday Musical club is an an

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

"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.

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

SKIRTS! I'm going to tell you of
some 1 saw tin's week which cer
tainly have the call of Spring in tlierrl.
They're at K W. Thome's, and are
of lovely wool materials suitable for
so many occasions. One Style I
noted of clay colored panama in aa
invisible plaid formed of fine hair
lines had th-: most interesting fitted
girdle, the points of which turn tin
expect edly up at the sides. Its price
is $8.95. There are some stunning
skirls in plaids and stripes, and the
practical navy blue serges, featuring"
plain slender linc tunics and the new
"wrap" style.
I
F you saw Brandcis' window dis
.play of Cinderella Hats this week
I in sure you'll agree with me that
you never saw cunningcr hats and
the price! iid you notice that? Ac
tually only $2! And it matters not
whether they're daintily trimmed or
.smartly banded, the price is always
the same. Milans, milan-hemps,
satin straw braids, Mackinaws, rough
braids ami silks are the material
they're made of. I cannot imagine
anything pleasanter to happen to a
little girl from 3 to 12 years old than,
to buy her a Cinderella hat to wear
to church on Faster.
F)RI-SS UP! Dress up! Tray don't
delay. Miss Springtime has
come back l stay. She's dressed in
all her freshest clothes, and so could
you he, it ycii chose. Her gown is
green, her hat is, too with touches
here and there of blue, and flowers
fair she feign, would wear, the glint
of sunshiir:., in her hair. Come.
hurry now.
Dress up! I say; pray
don't look sad on Easter day.
Gladsomely yours,
