REES LD FATHER TIME must have been apeeding up his record, for this year the (‘hrx(ml!‘ week scems to have come much earlier than usual.

O. Furlong of Steamboat Springs, Colo., who is spending the winter with his family in Omaha, was a visitor in Ralston last Sunday. Mrd. David Ham entertained the Sey- mour club at her home Thursday after- noon. A two-course luncheon was served, Mrs. Bragg Is entertaining her sister from Towa this week. A number of friends from Omaha suc- ceeded in surprising Mrs. R. T. Props: last Wednesday evening, the event being | her birthday anniversary. After a deli- clous luncheon was served cards were played until a late hour. Red Top Rubber Boots for the little boys. Lots of good things for the boys and girls in our big stock, CRESSE | would not permit the original arrange- any kinds For a brief space the music of recital and concert must glve way to the musio of the and the the | hymns and carols come to the fore. Mapy of the hurches will give speelal musical serve both this Sunday and next, and church people, as | through the music more than through the poken word, is conveyed the spirit of awe and gladness In the well known story of the Christ child. — Some time Ago & committee of represan- tative ‘music teachers called upon the cuperintendent and members of the sehool | oard concerning credit for outside music study In the Omaha Hich school. They wore recelved courteously, and told that when the members became convinced that it was practicable they would give | credit for study in this subject done with | outside teachers. From time to time @ | have been presenting in this ecolumn various argum@nts In favor of allowing | students to substitute musio for some other elective course in the high school upon a plan similar to that which has seen adopted by many other cities. This veck. in order to be perfectiy fair to every e, T decided to write an article present- Ing the other side of the case, why music study should not be accredited in the high school, but lo, not one reason mnor \rgument against it could I find. If any 1ember of the board or other interested rerson can furnish any plausible reason why some plan for credit for outside music study, should not be given a place In our high achool the writer will gladly make room for it in this column. If no one can present any such reasons, why not accredit 1t? \ ——— The large organ which has been in Fes- tival hall at the Panama-Pacific exposi- tion will soon be moved to the Munfoipal Auditorfum in San Francisco, and a mu- nicipal organist appointed. According to the Musical Leader, Edwin Lemare is a candidate for this post. Mr. Lemare is the great English organist who has been clving a series of recitals at the exposi- tion. He s without doubt one of the few great living organists, and S8an Francisco would be fn luck to keep him. It is & question if there are more than ome or two organists anywhere who have the large repertoire of Mr. Lemare, who plays as brilliantly, composes as melodiously or who could Improvise as artistically. The acquisition of Mr. Lemare would mean | much to San Francisco and the country in general in a musical way, for the in- fluence of great musicians such as he is tar-reaching.
