Speaking of the new violin sensation. Erika Morinl, Miss Parlow felt that she had much, but it would remain for time to prove her apparent genius. - ' Last season Miss Parlow had as her accompanist Harry Gilberts, whom a number of Salem musi cians pleasantly remember by his appearance in Salem as accompan ist for David Dispham. Fred Mel nom Gee. her present accompanist Parlow Is originally from New Brunswick, a place familiar to Mr. John J. Roberts, another Musical bureau member, for the latter's former home was near there. Miss Parlow. Mrs. Parlow and Mr. Gee were delighted with Ore gon, finding its greenness and dampness, as many others have. much like England. Mr. Gee has a decided taste for the photo graphic art, and Saturday morn ing before, his departure he was Mrs. Roberts guest for a motor drive about the Capital City dur ing which he took many pictures of buildings, parks and special scenes. ' A Refreshing Program Every quality that delights the trained musical ear was found In the playing of Miss Parlow, who, differing from many artists does not "play down" to her audience A new shipment of mer--cerized hosiery, no seams fa foot.

There was nothing whatever hackneyed about her program, and to many the absence of Dvor ak's "Humoresque," a number us ually fettured by violinists was a particularly happy deficiency. It was of interest to know that the violin on which she played was the $10,000 Guarnerius, which was presented to her by a wealthy Norwegian nobleman, at the close of one of her trium phant concerts in Christiania. Besides the programmed num bers Miss Parlow Rave three en cores, Paderewski's "Minuet", "Drink To Me Only With Thine Eyes," and "Caprice Vlennois," (Cradle Song) by Kreisler. Her appearance here marked the third number on the Salem Musical bureau's calendar. Salem folk are Indeed grateful to Mrs. W. E. Anderson, manager ot the bureau, and her assistants who have made it possible to hear world-renouned artists in our own home town. A Pretty Incident In school you were told to nev er say 'bat you did not care for flowers, music and children. It is a fact worthy of note, that a person who really loves one will love the other. All great music ians are always sincere lovers of childhood, and in this respect Miss Parlow was no exception. While she was waiting at the Hotel Marlon Saturday for the time of her departure to arrive. Mildred Roberts, who Is a young violin student of Prof. William Wallace Graham, came in for her lesson. Miss Parlow was immed iately interested and asked that she might play cn the small in strument, a privilege that was of course, readily granted. Tucking, the violin beneath her chin. Miss Tarlow played a bit of something or other, much to the happiness of the youthful music ian. i. - Recognized the Artist Speaking of the Parlow concert under the direction of the Salem Musical Bureau and looking at a page of children's pictures bring? to mind a story that Harold Henry, pianist, who was presented as the first artist by the bureau, told while here. v He was playing in concert in the east, and while Jn a certain eity was being entertained by a friend, who was the mother of a very inquisitive little fon. Dur ing the hours that Mr. Henry pet aside for regular practice, the child was kept out of the living room. Listening attentively foi some time his curiosity finally could not be repressed. , "Who is that playing, mother?" "It's Mr. Henry." "Well, I thought he played weller n th tuner man: 4r Romance of Silk The loveliest rainbow imagin able sprang into existence in the heart of the Capital City Monday morning, and phenomenon of phe nomenons held its prismatic col ors in unwavering form until late last night.

Let us give thanks that style in tne present century is not what It was in the fourteenth. Then toes were so long- and pointed that they turned up and fastened with a chain to the belt so long that they were prohibited by an act of parliament in 1463. The style grew more pro nounced In Queen Mary's time, so much so that sh? issued a proc lamation limiting shoes to fix inches. . The heel came in with Elizabeth in the nineteenth cen tury and went out when King James entered.

New York City: "The arrangement of the prinis bad been attended' to by Allen Eaton, than whom no man under stands better the bringing out to the greatest advantage of the points of excellence in merilorious reproductions. It is one thing to "hang" paintings, it is quite a dif ferent and in many respects far more difficult tak to arrange properly two thousand unframed reproductions. Mr. Eaton's assign ment was all the more difficult be cause these prints had to bo ar ranged according to a well-defined educational plan. He suc ceeded admirably . in taking the untutored in art in hand and guid ing him by easy stages through a "gallery" containing such sharp contrasts as. for instance, a St. Gaudens' "Lincoln," which every American can Instinctively under stand because ot his reverence for the subject, and Da Vinci's "Mona Lisa. . appreciation of which pre supposes a certain amount of aes thetic understanding. The practi cal picture and art dealer will ap preciate tho difficulties encoun tered la making of two thousand unframed prints a finished, co-ordinated exhibition, not a sample collection such as Is frequently seen in commercial display rooms. At a showing of original paintings those who arrange it have, more over, the great advantage that the untutored and tyros In art, though a painting may in itself be mean ingless to them, are impressed be cause they behold the work of hu i man hands. But, in the case of re productions, they do not respond to this spell because direct asso ciation with' the artist is lacking.

As field secretary of the Ameri can Federation of Arts, a position which he baa held for about three years, there is much of interest In Mr. Eaton's work, particularly the exhibition of art of the homelands contributed by American citizens of foreign birth. Mr. Eaton is al so employed in special work for the Russell Sage Foundation. Mr. Eaton is the son of Mr. and Mrs. J. It. Eaton of 869 South Twelfth street, and has a large ac quaintance in the Capital City, where he spent many months dur ing various legislative sessions, at the time of his last session being known as the dean of the houce. He is a graduate of the class ot '02 of the U. of O.. and for some time held a chair In that institu tion. He was always actively iden tified with Oregon's art life and his wife was known as a miniature painter. , In 1218 bewas calledTa Wy oming a second time to teach, aft er which he was appointed to a place with the Emergency Fleet Corporation, his duty being, the adjustment of labor disputes. His territory comprised' New York. New Jersey and part of Connecti cut. In this work he was excep tionally successful.
