Concerning "Mrs. Mary
Turner Salter,
Composer
, Mary Turner Salter, composer of
note, who is spending several months
with her sister, Mrs. C. Wv Morton,
has received many complimentary
press notices recently. In the Bill
board, a theatrical magazine, . of
April 9, the following article ac
companied a portrait of Mrs. Salter:
Up in New England, in the town
of Williamstown, Mass., lives one of
this country's noted composers,
Mary Turner Salter. Music has from
early childhood been a big part of
Mrs. Salter's life, or, as a child, it
was recreation for her and rest from
school duties to .improvise at the pi
ano. Her musical education, was re
ceived from Alfred Arthur and Max
Schilling in Burlington,-Ta., and at
the College of Music of Boston uni
versity, and brief courses with in
structors in Boston and New York
City. Before winning success as a
composer, and prior to her. mar
riage to Sumner Salter, .who is also
a composer, she achieved an excellent
reputation a$ a concert artist and ora
torio singer,;and appeared with the
Apollo club of Chicago, the Cecilian
sonietv of Bdston. the New York Or
atorio society ,v,the Orpheus club of
Buffalo and many ether musical or
ganizations. .. -,
It was jn 1897. Mrs. Salter began
tn write comoositions and the ma
jority of her songs were prompted
hv some mood or subject, and for
many of them she wrote the words
and music at practically the same
time. Her song, "Ihe Cry ot Kacnei,
is deemed bv many as the greatest
song which lias yet' been( written by
an American tuiupuaci.
Among the best known of her com
oosition are "The Pine Tree." "The
Lamp of Love' and "Lyrics From
SaDDho." Dunne , the 20 years in
which she has been wrjtiug Mrs. Sal
ter has composed about luO songs
and in her work she has 'been ably
aided by her husband. Sumner Sal
ter, well known as a composer, con
ductor,, organist, and teacher, who
has prepared for publication all man
uscripts written1 by his wife. Among
the latest songswritten by Mrs. Sal
ter are "A Woman's War Song,"
"Early Nightfall." y A sleep." "lorn
iW and "Mother - Mooh.":1 In the
interests of American music MrJand
Mrs. Salter have both done excellent
work, and-their influence .extends
over a wide circle. " ' . .

i There is no question that the
blouse type of frock is one of the
most economical of the varieties of
Costuming that can be gained by the
aid of one simpla skirt. But that is
ro reason, surely, why the thing
should be done badly and why the
wrong blouse should Je combined
with the wrong skirt. The blouse,
in other words, should be used
the full value of its design and
Should never b? allowed to be that
thing which is just thrown on to
make something that "will do."

Between Season Hats to . r
x Be Aim of Association
One of the plans for the- coming
year, as outlined by the National
Millinery association, which met re
cently in New Yoik, is to inaugu
rate four seasons a year in hat
modes. The tendency toward wear
ing straw hats in February and vel-,
vet or felt, ones in August is dc
pldred, and in-between seasons of
fabric hats is advocated.
"But," J remarked to the manufac
turer who was telling me this, "you
say that it is the women who have
been to blame for this craze for
straw hats in the winter and velvet
ones in the summer; and that the
store millinery buyers have been
much worried about it. Why, it was
only a year or so ago that all one
could buy in late winter were straw
hats."
"Yes, yes," he hastily interrupted,
"those were for southern wear. You
women who stayed north all winter
were not supposed to buy them."
I didn't tell him that there was no
other kind to buy what would have
been the use? But anyway it will
be nice to wear straw hats or those
of silk or crepe in the hot days of
early September and not be con
sidered out of date.
The new hats are unusually pretty
this spring. There are many different
styles, too. There is the shape with
the upturned brim, like, but at the
same time entirely different from
the off-the-face hat of last year. Then
there is the Directoire model with its
softly curved line across the fore
' head, and which is very becoming to
Gray is the grief that comes to mortal hearts
With Healing in the end and peace serene;
Gray is the care that shadows, then departs - -To
bring in view the joys that were unseen! 1

Flower. Lovers Find It Easy to Dis-
cerft the Difference Between Per

Tp LOWER Rovers easily distinguish
the difference in quality of flow
ers. Fragrant blossoms are not to be
compared and classed according to
price, for a $2 a dozen rose in one
tlower shop may be quite another
proposition in another shop. It is

the small - draped . shapes are also
good,, wTiile drooping trimmings are
much in vogue. , . - .
, The necklines in use this spring
also present, quite a range of choice.
The oblong from shoulder to
shoulder neckline is still featured,
while guimpes of organdie or lace
are used to fill in the front of cloth
dresses.
Because of thejnfluence of the
Diredtoire and the 1830 modes, col
lars which are almost capes are. very
smart Some stand away from the
neck, giving a narrow line to the
shoulders and crossing surplice
fashion in the front, while others are
regular capes with upstandging
collars.
Frills of finely pleated organdie
or net are also quite -the thing, some
of them coming. up so high in the
back that they are caught-in the
hair with invisible hairpins.
The most popular of. the new
spring furs are those which show
tones of gray or brown, the chocker
neckpiece being at present the pre
vailing fur mode. Gray squirrel,
a dyed gray fox and the natural
blue fox are the gray furs most in
demand, while stone marten with
its tan and brown tones is also in
vogue. M
Later when tffe street dress makes
its appearance it is expected that
the short fur jacket or coatee will
be worn." Capes of silk or satin
with a trimming of monkey fur will

For Many Embroidery Creations.
THE, Ideal Button and Pleating

block, Sixteenth and Douglas, owes
some of its loveliest embroidery cre
ations this week to a recent importa
tion of Frenck Frocks to one of our

with a bit of this, a wisp of that,
lightly caugla together with a "cat

frocks could be made, especially
when one could : send the 20-inch
w ide hem-length sash 'up to the Ideal
Button and Pleating Company for an
all-over embroidering of brown and
gold embroidery, stilf aifd. heavy so
that the width of sash in all its
exotic loveliness would stand out to
show its intricacy of trimming. Pop-.
ular indeed among the French de
signers is the "shoulder to shoulder"
Egyptian embroidery decoration,
this in vivid reds, browns, greens
and blues extending not only from
shoulder to shoulder, but from one
cuff edge to the other cuff edge
across the front and back following
the neckline. Hundreds of yards of
sheer stuffs are to be seen in this
great shop being hemstitched and
picoted into delectable little frillies
for the adornment of milady's sum
mer frocks. Send for a catalog

City of Lucca Noted .
For Splendid Brocades
Today the city of Lucca in north
ern Italy is noted for. its olive oil.
But back in the period of Renais
sance, and even earlier than that; it
was known as the -city which manu
factured the mostwondrous of bro
cades, velvets artd damasks. "As
beautiful as the brocades of Lucca"
was a comparison which was current
in those long-vanished days. '
Even now the. memory of those
priceless fabrics in which the lordly
old Medicis loved to bedeck them
selves is invoked by the sight of the
materials which our modern looms
turn out. Ivory white satin threaded
with gold, velvets of glowing Vene
tian reds, vivid corals, Mediterranean
blues and Chinese jade pressed into
intricate designs. '.
