Up from the east the first stars rise, Out of the west in red and white Th aun sends bars that stripe the skies The old flag bends above the night W. D. Nesbit. Trans-continental cond i t i o n s have been consuming much time and attention recently and hardly a person can be found who is not distinctly versed on the xact lo cation and situation of the coun tries involved in the war. So in teresting has become the subject that old and young alike, besides reading all the papers, have tak en geographies that have la n dormant for a time and ierused their pages to replenish their knowledge of things long forgot ten. Every place seems to have its own troubles and problems and they are neither more nor less than ours. At the present anxious time, few there are of us who have not friends abroad either for travel and recreation, study, or for activity in the musical fields of Europe, which condition adds anxiety of the keenest nature to the situation. To this state of unrest the in telligence that Mrs. Wilson, wife of our President, and the "first lady of the land" was no more, added gloom and Forrow, for per sonal participation in this grief is unusually widely extended. We mourn for her because of her un tiring effort to uplift humanity, we kneel at her grave in the Sun ny Southland and mingle our tear3 because she was a noble type of genuine womanhood, sen sible, beautiful in character, with a wonderfully sweet expression of face and an indescribable charm of manner of which even the ravages of disease could not rob her, because she was charac terized alike by goodness and gentleness, because she lived wholly for her husband. To smooth his pathway, to cheer his spirit, to harmonize every dis cordant element of his life, were purposes no sacrifice on her part was too great, to accomplish these enu-. Harboring this sor row and unrest, as a result there is almost a complete dearth of social affairs. At many homes shades remain drawn, for the lure of the sea side continues sufficiently potent to draw men and women from their busy cares and accustomed surroundings to a spot where they are continually fanned by the sea breezes, scented with the fir.

WEDDING ANNOUNCED Announcement was recently made by Mr. and Mrs. A. P, Fletcher of Lafayette, of the en gagement of their daughter, Eva, to Mr. William Courtney. The wedding will be an inter esting function of September. LARGELY ATTENDED Gratified interest and support were displayed by music lovers last Saturdav afternoon, when they responded so heartily to Mr, Cooper's general invitation to come to the opening of the first exclusive music store in the city. From the opening hour in the afternoon until late in the even ing a note of welcome, distinctly clear, was sounded from the new Palace of Music in the Monitor building and C street was appro priately styled "Melody Lane.' Not only did the city people lend a hearty response, but many cf.me from the country bearing a stamp of approval and apprecia tion for the new establishment which promises to be one of the most attractive places in the city. Crystal bowls of variegated sweet peas afforded a fragrant and "homey" decoration to the cozy arrangement of the several instruments Apart from the players, victro las, phonographs, etc, which Mr. Coouer skilfully operated for the listeners' approval, Miss Helen Eaton and Mr. Lester Sutler de lighted the callers with piano se lections and vocal numbers, most ly of the popular type, which produced thorough enjoyment for the informal surroundings, where everyone felt full of chatter and song. EN CAMP Among the many families who are enjoying camp life are the E. E. Paddock and the J. G. Mc intosh families who are happily located at "The Willows" for a six weeks' outir.g. While they are en camp, the latter family have as the;r guest the interesting Miss Rebfcca Jarre, who is reputed to be the original from Sunny Brook Farm.
