Dear Folks: Never was the logic of the old moth-eaten adage, “Every jack to his own trade,” brought home to me clearer than after a turrible unpleas- ant scene I had with my landlady, fol- lowin’ a hglf hour’s set-in with Mon- soor Malini, the world's incomparable magician, up to the New Willard Ho- tel yesterday afternoon! Fresh from a audience with this truly remarkable little now-you-see- it-and-now-you-don’t master, Who can pull a caviar sandwich outa your necktie with the same nonch'lance that he directs you to send back to the chef the ruther tasty welsh rare- bit you discover hid in your pocket, I had the brazen gall to try to show the lady who collects my rent just how easy I could tear up one of her best ten-dollar bills without rully de- facin’ the notepiece! Details of the operation are superfluous! Malini not only done it, but explained to me just how it was did, and that I was enough to think I 1d get aw: with the maneuve 't no- body's hard luck but my .wn, and now I gotta dig to make good with the.room missus! But, hon folks, never in all my meanderin’s have I come face to face in limited quarters with sich a truly ' indescribable human bein’ as this 1i *nut” Golden Tree, Thomas and _Fair. a-Courting Went" Maid's_Song.” As the “lonesome tunes” are dis- tinctly an American contribution to the world's store of music, the con- cert by Miss Wyman and Mr. Brock- way is in a sense a compliment to the conference on the limitation of armament. The number of replies !from the foreigners who were in- | vited as guests and from the Ameri- !cans who are prominent in the busi- iness and social sides of the confer- tence shows that the opportunity to ihear this folk music is appreciated.
