TEACHERS LEAD PUPILS OUT OF DARK SCHOOLS Mry. Giles Soott Rafter Says Poor Lighting Ruins Chil- dren’s Eyes. Inadequate lighting facilities in the public schools, which she claimed are “ruining the eyes of the future gen- eration of Washingtonians,” were se- verely criticised by Mrs. Glles Scott Rafter, president of the District Con- gress of Mothers and Parent-Teacher Assoclations, &t a meeting of the civic section of the Women's City Club yes- terday afternoon in the clubhouse. Mrs, Rafter gave a demonstration of lighting conditions In the school- rooms in a' vast ‘majority of the schools at 4:15 o'cleck in the.afters noon, when thousahds of children are still ‘at their desks, by having the lights in thé club’s assembly hall turned out. Teachers Lead Pupils. . “This is the way thousands of chil- dren are trying to get an education at this moment,” declared Mrs. Rafter. “At 4:30 the rooms will be still darker, and the teachers in many schools have to lead the children down the steps in " | order to prevent them stumbling in the dark. Only two or three schools have electric lights and in some of them there is not even gas.” Mrs, Willlam Wolff Smith made an appeal for partly worn shoes, which the Congress of Mothers wishes to have re- pairea and distributed to children, 8o they may be able to attend school. Mrs. J. H. Bird, chairman of the civic section of the club, was appointed to represent the section on the committee of the Washington Arts Club which is furthering the proposal to establish a school for the study of home-making at Mount Weather, near Bluemont, Va.

Repeats Historic Jerny Lind Conoert. Something more than two years g0_an claborate concert was given in New York to commemorate the one-hundredth anniversary of the birth of Jenny Lind, whom posterity knows as the famous “Swedish Night- ingale,” and from all the singers of the world who might be eligible to that once wonderful singer Frieda Hempel, the weil known coloratura soprano, was chosen. It was a unique compliment, a great honor; but it did not bring unalloyed joy to Miss Hempel. Nat- urally her rivals resented the choice. and champions of each began a sys- tematic course of disparagement, while, on the other hand, hosts of ad- mirers of beautiful song acclaimed and applauded Miss Hempel's exquis- ite volice, its sweetness particularly, and the manner in which the songs of Jenny Lind were sung by her. Washington, yesterday afternoon, at the National Theater, which was crowded to its fullest capacity, had a repetition of the great “historical cen- tennial concert,” and, according to the temperament and the predilec- tions of the auditors, divided its judg- ment.

Appeal to the eye as well as the ear is the grace which makes Vocalion Period Models the choice of all who follow an artistic plan of decoration. These classic cabinets of luz- urious woods in rich colorings meet the most par- ticular demands for decoratwe harmony.

The Adam design of true propor- tions and the Ornate Florentine Model—all have been adapted to the mellow-tone vocalion. All these period styles may be had in console and up- right models. The Vocalion is epoch-making stride from mechanism to music. In creating the Vocalion, the research and experiments of the greatest au- thorities on- tone qualities have produced unprece- dented perfection. This advantage, added to the ezperience obtained by the Aeolian Company as the world’s greatest producer of musical instru- ments, has given to the world a new, better tyve of phonograph, a reproducing medium whick must be.judged as a musical rather than a me- chanical instrument.
