Singing, as far as most people ara concerned, is a lost art. Thousands at- tend operas, recitals and musical com- edies, but, as for singing themselves informally at their work or play, they have forgotten how. In times past people of all ranks sang together.as @ matter of course. Sailors sang at} their work; peasants, shepherds, cow- boys, all had their favorite and appro- priate songs. The songs of childrengat games, the lullabies of mothers, are} in the collected ballads and folklore’ of many peoples, “The pastimes and labors of the hus- bandman and the shepherd,” says An- drew Lang, according to the Indianapo- lis News, “were long ago a kind of natural opera. Each task had its own song; planting, seeding, harvest- ing, burial, all had their appropriate ballads or dirges. “The whole soul of the peasant class breathes in its burdens as the great sea resounds in the shell mast up on the shore.” Nowadays the whirl of machinery makes all the noise. The workers in mills might find it unsatisfying to sing at their work, but it is doubtful If they would sing even if their voices could be heard, while singing in an offfce or store would pretty surely be stopped by the “boss” or the police. Thousands congregate every night in the silence, of moving picture theaters, and even in the churches where singing by the eongregation used to be customary, the | atterdants now usually Hsten in silence to a paid singer. Singing in this age is largely con- fined to the professional performer. WOMEN WEAVE STRAW HATS All People of Island Depend Upon Earnings of Few Cents a Day Each for Their Living. Next to the transshipment activities of Mount Pleasant, the weaving ot straw hats is the chief source of in- come of the people, says Commerce Re- Ports. The hats woven are of a cheap quality, the standard selling in 1916 for from $1.30 to $1.43 per dozen. . The straw for these hats is at present im- ported from Venezucla and Colombia, but the Dutch government is attempt: Ing to raise it in Dutch Guiana. The hats are woven by the women and children in their homes, and by moderate industry a woman can com- plete a hat in one day. All over the island from early morning until after sunset the weaving goes on. The Sy- tian purchasers, who collect the hats from house to house, pay about ten or eleven cents each. Althougs the straw for a hat costs the weaver from five to seven cents and the amount} tealized from a day’s work is very small, many of the people depend en- tirely upon their meager earnings from this industry. In the government school hat weav- {ng is taught and some ofthe natives attain a high degree of.skill, producing hats said to equal the best made in Colombia. The better grades do not enter into the export statistics of the colony, as they are bought by tourists; the quality of the standard hat does not improve. ¢ Model Fich Slarket.

Some of the most “annoying” details are given at length. “Sand finds its way into car jour- nals, causing hot boxes and a delay in the arrival of the show trains. Pol+ son sometimes gets into the meat that Is fed to the ‘principal’ animal act, with the result that tigers and lions turn their toes to the sun and the cir- cus loses one of its best acts. Wagon wheels come off mysteriously—it is easy to loosen the nuts of a wagon in the darkrfess of night on a circus lot. Health departments receive sud- den announcements of epidemics among people or stock, and hold the circus until both can be examined. Working men are bought away, and delays created by every scheme and device. Fighting circuses have even accused each other of: throwing -rail- road switches and causing wrecks. Taking it by and large, ‘dirty oppost- tion’ is a gay and exciting existence. “And where ft all began ts beyond the annals of cireusdom. It was here before we came into the game. Grize zled old men around the stake-and- chain wagon tell stories that were his- tory when they were children. Years of warfare, then short spasms of peace and ‘gentlemanly conduct’ —such is the history of the circus from the time of Barnum. Then men called | each other thieves and cutthroats and | ae robbers and embezzlers and burglars through the newspapers, and the cir- pcus magnate who owned the most vitri- olic press agent was by far the wisest showman.” Don’t Be Obstinate. + It is surprising hew many people do not kuow the difference between ob- stinucy and firmness. Some .persons feel uncomfortable over standing hy their principles, for fear some one will think them obstinate, and others pride themselves on never making 2 conces- sion to please anyone, and imagine they are beautifully firm. It is quite important to get the difference quite elear in your own mind, since firmness is dne of the most necessaty virtues, and obstinacy one of the most serious 4aults—Exchanza. :
