gave "A Shepherd's Tale by Nevin, in
which phe displayed not only grace and
delicacy but a clear singing tone.
The sonata was not quite so satisfact
ory; at time it seemed a little indistinct
as if the player had not made the
thought entirely her own.
Mr.Movius' voice newer appeared to
better advantage than in the martial
strains of Schumanne"Two Grenadiers."
Mr. Scott's sweat tenor was heard in
Coochois' Unrequited" and (is an en
core) in "Let me kiss your teara away"'
by the same composer. Rossini's "La
Separation" was charmingly sung by
Mrs. Mark Woods whose rich contialto
, voice k always heard with the greatest
pleasure. The program closed with a
Raff "Gavotte and Musjtte," by Mies
Young, accompanied on a second piano
by Harry Briggs.
There is a picturein the current num
ber of Harper's Bazar of Captain Bert
rand Rockwell who presented the Wo
man's Literary club of Junction City,
Kes , with a beautiful stone club house.
He is also quoted as giving the following
gratifying tribute to the worth of the
club movements:
-I consider that the influence forgocd
whi:h tho widespread organizttion ot
these clubs wields nnks in importance
sow next to our public school system.
In torn with fion8ve to ten thousand
inhabitants the evidences of the club's
influence are more easily seen and ap
preciated than in the great cities. Mem
bership means labor, study and culture.
It means that many hours which might
be devoted to idle pleasure and goesip
ara assd to strengthen and improve the
Bind. The intellectual advancement of
the mother extendi: to the daughter, and
even to the sons and father. Table talk
is frequently upon subjects which are
being discu3ed at the club, and the en
tire atmosphere of the home is changed
through its influence. The fact that the
club is S3 Catholic in its scops is one of
its greatest powers. Applicants for mem
bership are not necessarily college alum
nae. Srcial standing, manners, dre-s,
religion or politics arc not considered.
A woman of good character, sufficient
ly desirous of improving herself mentally
to agree to work upon the lines marked
out, iB eligible. The result is often sur
prising. Some women who have the
commonest of common school educa
tion have developed into leaders. The
extension of the work to farms, which is
now being vigorously advocated by Mrs.
Noble L. Prentis of Kansas City, is a
significant advance. When it is ac
complished we will sec fewer farmers'
wives sent each year to insane asjliuins.
As the condition of the ommon peo
ple of Scotland was changed during tbo
eighteenth century, from misery and
lawlencsB tc happiness and plenty by
thepaseageof laws giving free school
ing to the poor, let us hope that the wo
man's club movement in the twentieth
century will make the people of the
United States the mo:t intelligent and
contented in the world."
Sorosis, of Crete'he'd its first meeting
ot the tew year with Miss Hall. The
main part of our work this year is a re
view of English history. Our last topic
was "The Martyrs Under Queen Mar-,
daughter of Henry VIII.
There is a growing interest manifested
in child study. The last topic, ''Is i
proper to give a child the same kind of
food allowed a grown person?" was the
occasion of an interesting discussion.
A very pleasant feature of the club
this year is the social and tea following
the literary program. We missed some
of our members on this occasion and
though we enjoyed the repast, so ample
and nicely prepared, our hearts went out
in sympathy for those so recently called
to mourn. The program cf the next
meeting is:
Roifcail.
English history, tho times and life cf
Queen Elizabeth.
Sketch of Sir Walter Raleigh, by Mrs.
Drake.
Parliamentary Drill, by Mrs. Johnson.
Current Topic?, by Mrs. Greweli.
t The officers of tho Woman's club are
considering the feasibility of reviving
the dormant musical department At
cne time it was thought that work of
that nature would interfere with the
Matinee Musicale, but if properly con
duced it would find .1 sphere awaiting
it which is without tho province of tho
other club. Each year the standard ot
musical culture is raised a little, and all
cannot hope to be interpretive musicians
any more than they are required to
paint impossible roses or wisby washy
water-colors; tho world needs now mu
sical listeners. A department of music
founded on tho lines of Ih9 art depart
ment, to study fhe history of music, the
lives of tne great composers, with a
careful analysis of their works, would be
of the greatest benefit in the musical
growth of the city. Several pcpiilar
works on the theory and art of music
have been written during the past few
years which are within the mental grasp
of those without a technical musical
training. We most of us understand
music purely from an emotional stand
point, but with proper study many to
whom the pentiment does not appeal,
might learn to appreciate it intel
lectually. No class of artists miiror
their own personality in their works to
the same extent as musicians, and know
ing their lives and temperament will
often assist to th meaning of a produc
tion. Who that underefandsBeethovca'a
unhappy life can fail to realize why his
music so often was stormy and sad; or
how could the universally beloved Men
delssohn, whose delicate, beauty-loving
organization is shadowed forth in music
all poetry and sentiment, give us aught
ot storm when it was abjent in his life's
experier.es? Now that Lincoln -has the
Philharmonic, a serious 6tudy of the or
chestra, with the nature and quality of
the various instruments, and the history
of such organizations the world over
would be appropriate.
The Woman's Literary club of Slan
ton is now starting on its second year
It is deservedly proud of its first year's
record, having started with six members
and now numbering 13. with t.vo appli
cants for membership.
Mrs. W. W. Young was re-elected
president for tho ensuing year The
club subscribes for the following period
icals: North American Review, Har
pert Monthly, MunseyV, McCiures
Cosmopolitan. Chautauqua and North
Western Monthly. The year's program
opened with the stuty of Longfellow
life and writings.
