14 THE BEE: OMAHA. WEDNESDAY APRIL 7, 1920. MUSIC FOR THE MUSICIANS HAS SWAY IN OMAHA State Convention of Music Teachers Has Busy Time . : With Its Special ,:V Programs. By HENRIETA M. REES. THE Tuesday programs of the Nebraska Music Teachers' as sociation set a standard for the convention, which speaks well for those to follow. The afternoon and evening sessions brought forth a gratifying attendance, and the larg est membership yet enrolled by the music teachers is reported, with more expected. The musical part of the programs was of unusual excellence and re flected the . greatest credit upon thosr? who took part in them. The fir" 'ied ' two-piano playing of A': ' vn Wood and Dorothy Morton Jc' t, who played their concerted mu ,;e without notes, the artistic singing of Louise Jansen Wylie and Mable Woodworth Jensen charmed a large audience at the morning ses sion. Lincoln Plays Big Part The afternqon session brought a Dvorak Sonata in F major played with excellent effect by August Molzed, violinist of Lincoln, and Carl Beutel, pianist of University Place. Two Lincoln musicians who were new to Omaha, were Mrs. Gilderoy Scott, who is the possessor of a remarkable contralto voice of depth and power, and Herbert Schmidt, whose clean technic and sane artistry won him recognition in a group of modern piano num bers. . Mabel Allen Smails of Omaha achieved -success with a group of soprano solos; and the West Sisters String quartet and Miss Corinne Paulson at the piano, played the lovely Schumann "quintet" in E flat, major -opus 44. with freedom and-finished ensemble greatly ap preciated by the listeners. Church Choirs Unite. A wide contrast to the preceding program was furnished in the eve ning at the First Presbyterian church. This was an organ and choral program and was distinctly churchly in character. Mr. Law rence Robbins of Lincoln proved himself an authoritative musician by his . masterly playing of the "St. Anne's Prelude and Fugue," . by Bach, as the opening organ number. The combined choirs of All Saints Episcopal church and the First Pres byterian church under J. H. Simms were, heard in two choral numbers, interpreted with careful regard for fine, shading, artistic effect and dis tinct enunciation. Mr. Fred G., Ellis displayed his splendid baritone voice to excellent advantage in the Mendelssohn num ber, "Lord God of Abraham, sung with the combined choirs and organ, and Mr, George S. Johnston, tenor, interpreted.' his . solos, "Onaway. Awake Beloved," with musicianly skill. Mrs. Louise Shadduck Za- briskie gave additional pleasure with a group of organ numbers at the close.

"I'm glad I ate such a lot of din ner, said Kit to Kat, as they walked along; "or else I'd just have to have a bun this minute!" v "Yes," said Kat, "it's much easier to . be polite when you aren't hungry." When they got . home, Kit and Kat took their grandmother to sea the new goslings, and to see the ducklings, too.

"When you marry, we shall have a fine press full of linen for you." "Isn't Kit going to have some, too?" asked Kat. ' Grandmother laughed. "The mother of the little girl who will some day marry Kit is working now on her "linen, no doubt; so Kit won't need any of yours." (Rights reserved by Houghton Mifflin Co.) Pershing's Heart Turned to Nebraska Though Chasing Moros Through Philippine Swamps Lincoln, Neb., April 6. How John J. Pershing told people all over the world that his home was in Ne braska and how he aways held a warm place 'in his heart for every Nebraskan he met is Interestingly described by N. C. Abbott, superin tendent of the School for the Blind at Nebraska City, an alumnus of the University of Nebraska. "Along in the middle of the year 1902," Mr. Abbott says, Pershing, then a captain. . was pushing the .Moros hard up m the lake country ot Mindanao, so successtui uaa ne been in his endeavor to crush these Mohometab outlaws that the army authorities kept officers "of higher rank out' of his immediate neighbor hood, so as to give him free rein in the operations that would ac complish the federal purpose. At that time I was stationed at Co tacato, as schoolteacher and post master, having charge of the only money order office .easily, accessible in the immediate war zone, about 80 to 100 miles away from where our forces were operating. "One night the commanding of ficer of the post sent his orderly to me with the request that I would go to the office and draw some money orders for an officer who had come over from Malabang by launch especially for the purpose of. getting exchange on the states. In the dim light of the smoky kero sene lamp. I began filling out the money order blank, and noticed that it was to be drawn on Lincoln, Nebraska. "When I reachrt the name of the remitter, I .looked up in surprise, walked over to the window and said, extending my hand, 'Lieuten ant Pershing' and he squinted at me and answered, 'A Fremont Abbott.' Pershing did not hurry back to the front as soon as I had drawn the money order, as he intended. , In stead he' gave orders to the captain of the 'Detroit' to wait six hours., And then he linked his arm in mine and we went up to the little shack that we called home fcr a love feast. "As the rats ran across the beams above our heads, as the lizards darted hither and thither about the room, time and distance fell away from us. We were not in the heart of Moroland but back in old Ne braska, 10,000 miles away. He was no longer the captain of the fight ing troops up in the Lanao country endeavoring, with rare success, that eventually made him a general, to conquer the blood-thirsty Mahome tan Moros which the Spaniards, in three centuries, had been unable to subdue. He was once more the commandant of the . university cadet and a student in the law col lege; living university life, breath ing university air, reviewing uni versity drills and conquests of a de cade before. "He was interested iii every one he had known in school and asked innumerable question:? about the people .in Lincoln, Fremont and other parts of the state with which I was acquainted." SENATE DELAYS VOTE ON SIZE OF PEACE TIME ARMY Reach Agreement Not to Fix Strength of Force Until Question of Military Train - ing Is Disposed Of. Washington, April 6. An agree' ment not to- fix the peacetime streneth of the army until the cues tion of universal training has been disDOSftd of was reached today by the senate when consideration of the army reorganization bill was assumed. Chairman Wadsworth of the mill tary committee said he was "not willine to vote at this time ' on the training and no time was fixed for a vote. The provision of the measure for universal training is expected to be reached before the end of the week. The army reorganization bill was attacked as a measure which "would build up a military system equal to any that ever existed in any country at any time," by Senator McKellar, democrat of Tennessee, during consideration of the legis lation in the senate. Senator Mc Kellar's criticism was directed prin- cinallv at provisions favorable for a large general staff, the creation of under-secretary . of vrar, and for the organization of a war council to consider policies affecting mill tary and munition problems. Sena tor McKellar indicated his opposi tion to universal military training but reserved his attack upon it until the general fight on the plan is brought to the senate floor. As a forerunner of the later floor fight against the universal training program, the senate by unanimous consent, agreed to deter action tix ing the peacetime strength of the army until after disposing of the universal military training pro' visions. No time was fixed, but progress today indicated the plan would come before the senate late in the week. MAN ACCUSED BY BUTCHERS WOULD GIRL IS BEATEN " , BY HER FATHER llfCntASc H. C. L., GROCERS ASSERT 3,000 Pennsylvania Miners Idle Despite Agreement on Scale Pittsburgh, Pa., April 6. Al though promises to meet the wage demands of striking day men in the east Ohio bituminous district were made today by a number of im portant operating coal companies, the principal mines were still closed, with more than 3,000 men idle. ,' .

This is not a proportionate advance with the ton nage men, and we agree that the tonnage men did not receive too much." Federal Grand Jury To Probe Existence of Pool to Corner Corn Chicago, April 6.

The tarnishing or dulling of the bright surface of silver in due to the action of air which contains sulphur, even in minute quantities. This action, which is somewhat analogous to the rusting of iron though the latter is due to the ef fect of water or moisture forms a coating of silver sulphate over the bright surface of the metal in some cases turning it an unsightly brown. The film of silver sulphate may be removed by the applica tion of friction but, unless care is -exercised, this is likely to scratch and mar the original surface of the metal. For this reason, all re liable preparations sold as "silver polishes" are entirely free from gritty particles large enough to make scratches visible to the naked eye though the entire pro cess of polishing is, in Itself, one of scratching away the film or re moving it by some kind of fric tion. The fact that sulphur is respon sible for the tarnishing of silver explains why pieces of tableware in a house heated by a hot air fur nace will tarnish more rapidly than those in a house where steam or hot water heat has been in stalled. The sulphur fumes come up from the furnace through reg isters and quickly film the silver, necessitating frequent cleaning, while this condition , naturally does not exist in houses where radiators are in place. Tomorrow's Question Why is the Balance Wheel of a Watch Made of Different Metals? Vagrant in Chicago,. In View of Law, Finds He Gets Off Luckily Chicago, April 6. After thinking it over, John Shanks has concluded that he was born lucky rather than ambitious. John appeared in police court to day on a charge of vagrancy. "You are charged with being a vagrant," said the judge, reading the warrant, "without visible means of support, sleeping in outhouses, barns and sheds. How 'do you plead?" "Well, your honor," replied John with a look .of awe on his face, "I guess I'm guilty, buf, according to that complaint, Jesus Christ was a yagrant." "Yes," replied the court, "and they, crucified Jesus. We won't be so: severe with you, however. Ninety days at hard labor." Pershing's Chance Lies In Whether or Not He Is Nebraska's Choice Bennett, Neb., April 7. "If Per shing is the choice of Nebraska by a large majority, he will be nomina ted, and if he is nominated he will be elected," declared Ralph Holly of this city, returned overseas vet eran of 10 months' service with the 88th division, 350th infantry, here to day. "Pershing's disposition not to bring himself forward may make his chance a little insecure, but once he is on the ticket he is a sure win ner. "Except for a very few, the entire vote of the ex-service men will go to Pershing. Many of the boys who are now talking against military men will vote for their own comrade, John J. Pershing, at the primaries." Grand Opera Singer Sues Wealthy Dentist for Divorce Santa Cruz, Cal., April 6.
