+B WOMEN CANT VOTE ON SCHOOL BONDS, Eleotion Commissioner Moorhead Makes Such Ruling After Her- ring's Expression. COURT DECIDES OTHERWISE Women are not eligible to vote Toesday on the proposition of the is- | suAnce of $1,000,000 bonds for erec- tion of achool buildings in Omaha, according to a ruling of Election Commissioner Moorhead. ‘“The statute does mnot permit women to vote on school bonds,' de- clared Mr. Moorhead. A different view of the question was taken by Attorney Herring of the Board of Bducation, who cited a supreme court declaion to support his opinion. . In 190 in Dawson county a school bond question was up. There the women voted and the case wont into the courts, the | opponents holding that the election wll‘ void by reason of fallute of the statutes to authorise the votes of women off a proposition of that kind. The case went to the Nebraska supreme court, and that tribunal held that the elootion was legal and the fact that women voted for or against the bonds did not invaiidate them. Carmelo Makes the May Pole for Cass School May Dance Twelve-year-old Carmelo Vacirca is an important individual at Cass school these days. Shy Nttle kindergarten maldens &lance up at him sideways botween thelr clirls And even the youngsters at their play stop to watch the ‘‘conquering Nhero” as he passes. All this homage is accorded Carmelo because he of his own accord and with- out any prompting from ‘‘teacher” did e himeelf to the manual training de- for the proper carrying out of May dancing. Shot Fired from THE concerts have come and gone, | yet the memory of them will linger for a long time in the WK minds and hearts of all true listeners, for such choral singing is only heard under very few conductors. Mr. Kelly plays upon his cholf as though it were a great respon sive instrument, and when one ponders upon the necessary #mount of personality tact and patience required to draw such responsivencas and flegibiitity from 170 average mortals who have, Iike all the rest of us of emotional expression, one marvels at the result 3 At no time since its organization A4 {the Mendelssohn Oholr o better work than on the occasion of the closing con- cerfs of its career with the Chicago Sym- phony orchestra. The sublimity of its climaxes, marvellously attained and su- perbly sustained, placedl the Cholr among | the first of American musical organiza- | tions. From every standpoint of critical view, Mr. Kelly is to be congratulated on his artistic achievement. That the five-year contract with the Chicago Bymphony Orchestra expired was but the result of Ume's flight; whether it s to be renewed is yet to be decided. Mu- slcal Omaha can scarcely afford to al- low this splendid partnership to lapse, but it takes more than words of praise to support the undertaking. Financially, the wyenture has not been a success. Moreover, the existing conditions have 1ald too heavy a burden on the conduc- tor of the choir and those who so en- thusiastically give of their time and tal: ent that Omaha may have the privilege of enjoving such a splendid festival ss has been afforded during the last five years. It would ordinarily be enough for those in the Cholr, who not only volun- tarily work, but also voluntarily contri- bute of their means to keep it alive, to provide for the artistic side of the wen- ture, without any responaibility for the financial obligation entafled.
