Mr. Gordon will warn American women against what he calls “epidemics in art”, and will urge them to let their taste in dress, in grooming, in decorations of their homes, express what they them- selves like, not what is the fashion abroad or elsewhere. His talk will be given during the L and ¥ ser- enade at 8 o'clock over WJZ and WBZ in connection with the regular musical program.

The real meaning of “Der Freischuts” is “free marksman.” The atory of the opera is founded on an_old German tradition that whoever sells his soul to Zamiel, the Demon Hunter, will receive seven magic bullets, with promises of a fresh supply in ex- change for any other victims obtain- ed for the Demon.

COUNGIL ADOPTS CHARTER CHANGES Four: Express Opposition But 14 Support Amendments Four members of the common council voted against accepting amendments proposed by the char- ter revision committee, but the re- wnaining 14 who attended a special meeting last night went on record as in favor. Councilmen H. Stuart Hanes. Rodger W. Whitman, Charles O. Holt and W. Spaulding Warner voted “no” on Alderman J. Gustave John- son's resolution to accept the report and refer it to tje legislative repre- sentatives of this city with a request that they do all in their power to have the changes enacted ijn the charter. Those voting in favor were: Aldermen, Judd, Johnson, Zapatka and Maerz, and Councilmen Huber, Mack, Ziegler, Bartlett, Willametz. Murphy, Maxon, 8ablotsky,- Conlon and Greene. After the poll was announced Mayor Paonessa expressed surprisc at the negative votes in view of the fact that no one had availed himse!f of the opportunity to speak before the ballot was taken. Counciiman Holt made it known that he was in doubt as to the w dom of holding property owncrs re. sponsible for damage resulting from highway operations being conducted in front of their properties, in view of the fact that the board of public works has supervision over them. The mayor explained that this provi- sion now exists, but that the charter limits the amount that may be collected. Councilman Whitman took the floor to say that he did not agree with the committee's proposal to place special appropriations of $50,- 000 or more on the machines for popular vote, A resolution was introduced by Councilman Bamuel Sablotsky and referred to the salary committee to PHONES 5100—5101 {8.

HIWANUANS DINE AT COUNTRY GLUB 100 Members and Wires Enjoy Banquet and Dance What is said to have been one of the most successful affairs of its kind ever held by a civic club in this city took place last night when the annual banquet of the Kiwanis club was served at the Shuttle Mea- Gow club house, The affair was unusual in the sense that there were no speakers. Several district officials who were invited, were prevented from bing present because of sickness. Hugh McKenna, newly clected president, was toastmaster. About 100 Kiwan- ians and their wives attended, in- cluding a delegation from the Man- chester club, The affair started at 7:30 o'clock with a roast chicken dinner served by L Fish, steward of the club. Mr. McKenna made a brief address of welcome to the guests and intro- duced Clarence Quimby of the Man- chester club. Mr. Quimby gave a short humor- ous address, after which the guests adjourned to the ball room where the Kiwanis entertainers had ar- ranged a minstrel show. The entertainers, who had been rehearsing for this affair for some time, presented their numbers with an ease and skill that bespoke natural ability not exceeded by many professionals, Dwight 8kinner and Frederick J. Arrigan were end men. Arthur E. Berg was interlocutor. Other mem- bers of the circle included Frank E. Racklifte, Jr., Ray C. Young, Dr. A. W. Johnson. £turman F Dyson was accompanist and Stanton Ashley was soloist, The program consisted of singi! the popular “Hallelujah I'm a Bum with the words adapted to members of the club, sung by the chorus with Mr. 8kinner taking: the solo part; “I've Got a Woman Crazy About Me,” solo by Mr. Ashley; “Melan- choly Baby”, also by Mr. Ashley; instrumental duet by Messrs.

Music for dancing was provided by Ben Parker's Marilyn Miller Aids Family tion Chicago, Jan. 31 UP—Marilyn Miller, who dances and acts, did what the profession would call a “mother number” last night. 8he handed her mother, Mra. Ada Miller, & ticket to Los Angeles, gave her a hug and kiss, helped heraboard a train that will carry Mrs. Miller to a remarriage to her divorced hus- band. Although the stage star's mas- riage to Jack Pickford finished in the divorce court, she has been play- ing cupid to her mother in an effort to effect a reconciliation between Mrs. Miller and Cargo G. Miller, from whom she separted in 1920. Miller is Marilyn's stepfather, and it was he who started her on the stage when she was four years old as a member of the “Columbians.” When Marilyn was married to Jack Pickford in the face of man- agerial objections, her mother was outspoken in support. “Whatever Marilyn thinks will make her happy, I'm for it,” she said. Last night, as Mrs. Miller atarted west, her daughter said: “If it's going to make you happy. darling, I'm for it."
