Love’s Awa'kening By Adele Harey Leaves for the City Happy in the Bellef That Lillian Acvepted, on Face Value the Fake Telegram. When my husband and Lillian's 1eturned from the telegraph office they brought with them a plausible | explanation of the purported tele- graph mix-up which Harry had ad- | vanced in explanation of the tele- | gram he had caused to be sent to| himself. | *“There hasn't been any answer to | the telegram concerning govern- | ment business which 1 sent this | morning,” Harry Underwood told | Lilllan and me, while Dicky stood | by, evidently ready to impersonate a | Greek chorus at any moment he | should be needed. “So of course | th figured that wire from | Schwartzman was the answer 1 had | teld them to deliver before one or | aiter four when | was sure to be at home. It was in a private code,” he | broke off apologetically to Lillian, | “and 1 didn't want you puzzled and | bothered with it.” ! “Thank you, that was very thoughtful of you,” Lillian returned, and her husband shot a quick, furtive glance at her. “But what shall T do if it comes after you're | gone?” | “It won't,” Mr. Underwood r turned promptly, and 1 saw in| Dicky's eyes the mirthful reflection | of my uwn conviction that the code | answer indeed never would be de- | livered because it only existed in | Harry Underwood’s fertile imagina- tion. “The man 1 sent it to in Washing- ton, isn’t there,” Harry went on, “won't be back until tomorrow. So | 1 left instructions for the answer to be delivered at the hotel.” ‘ “I'm glad you straightened It Lillian commented with just | the right casualness of tone. “But| tell me what you want to take with | you to the cit; | “You can give me that same in- formation,” 1 told Dicky, and the perilous topic of the missing tele- | gram was soon smothered under | sartorial details. But at the first Harry Underwood put | opportunity an anxious 1 THE CARROT-PATCH PARTY BREAKS UP | - i sure your d:bts to promptly pay; Jill g extly smocth your future way. —Johnny Chuck It was a funny little procession motag down from Farmer Brown's rrot-patch to the water on the overflowed Green Meadows.

Muskrat leoked anxious. Johnny Chuck and Jimmy Skunk Iooked unconcerned. Reddy Fox end Mrs. Reddy looked disappointed and -angry. And how iteddy and Mrs. Reddy did hate Jimmy Skunk! They were sure that if Jimmy hadn't| meddiled they would have had a Muskrat dinner. i It wasn't very far down te the water. When they reached it Jerry and Mrs. Muskrat waded right in. They didn’t have to wade very far hefore It wds deep enough for them | 3 swim. Then they turned towards Jimmy 8Lunk and Johnny Chuck. “Thank you. fimmy. Thank yon, Johnny,” they said. ‘We'll never for- ret what you've done for us.” Then Jerry looked over towards Reddy Fox and Mrs. Reddy. He slapped the water hard with his tail. Then he dived. Mrs. Muskrat did the same thing. When they came up again they were out where they had no cause to worry about Reddy Fox. | It was now Johnny Chuck’s turn | to be a ilttle anxious. He wasn’t afraid of Reddy Fox alone. or of | Mrs. Reddy alone, but he was afraid | of the two together. “Which way are you going.

Now then Jimmy started fo caich a srasshopper or dig a white grub out of the grass roots.

But the con- trast Dbetween Harry Underwood's deep concern for his wife's happi- ness and the casualness of Dicky's attitude toward me, stayed with me tormentingly after they had depart- ed for the city. I was glad that 1 had no leisure for introspection. and indeed with the arrival of the sewing woman who was to finish Marion's school outfit, and with getting the house ready for the expected Brixton visit, my time and thoughts were fully occupied.

From a rather unimportant place as mere decoration to other fabrics, lace hes swent its v to the posi- tion where it now functions, as a fabric, to fashion practically any- {thing in a woman's wardrobe. There are two reasons for the rrowing faver that shines upon lnce: First, with the advent of a softer, more feminine feeling in all styles, | more decoration enters the arena of | fashion.

The laces that are now| on the market have the beauty of silk, the suppleness of velvet and the sheerness of chiffon. Prac- | tically all' laces from Furope nre copied in our own laces, mnow. There are cotton and rilk laces, gold and silver laces and some new | metal laces that are a real depes- iture in that they have for their patterns: not flowers, but modern- istic designs.

BY ROSA PONSELLE Here we come to a big item in making your song a go. In sclectiffg songs you cannot always follow your own choice, You sing to please others, therefore you must also ccn- sider the taste of others when you choose your wongs. Not that anyone ghould sing the songs which she dislfkes or considers trash, but good songs that have a decided ap- peal to others. 1 believe in a high standard of , but there are plenty of good songs that are strong in.appeal to people generally, There also are good songs that are so much abo the understanding of the general run of people that to sing them means to create boredom. Majority should Please A few songs of that type, just to help in musical advancement, ia well and good. But to try to force « lot of thein against the wish of listeners is a great mistake. Another unwise thing to do 18 to select a song because all the zreat singers of her type of voice, soprano, contralto or whatever it may be, sing that song. By fol- lowing such a course the young singer challenges a comparison which she cannot meet. Later, after advancement, she may be safe in attempting it, but not too early. Her songs that go best will be those which do not recall 8o many perfect perform- ances by singers who have spent years in learning to do them per- fectly. For a young singer to attempt arias beyond her in the difficultics which they present is thoughtless; singers should not be guided as to choice in what s sung merely be- cause they like a thing. It is a good plan to take certain celebrat- ed arias as private study, when you are far enough along to do so safely, and then grow up in them, as it were, Success In Stmplicity Before the time comes that you are sufficiently advanced to sing | them before listeners you will have grown thoroughly familiar with the music. As 1 have sald before, but can- not impress too often, the young singer mukes her best successes with songs that require a less de- gree of finish than . she in reality conimands. Then she stands above ny difficulties in range or inter- pretation that they may present. Then the very certainty with which she sings shows she has the ability to do atill more, that “re- serve power” for which every fin- ished artist aims. Woman—La;— Leader Organizes G. O. P.
