It was when he had finished singing before the British royalty the queen was weeping; the king was touched, too. And that is the way Fanning' s voice af feeted them. It was a glamor ous day when the young baritone sang for their majesties. The feature article in connection with this story progresses as follows "With all the glamor and bri lliance of that occasion, there was yet an amusing aspect that struck Fanning, though' he Is not the sort ot American who laughs at royal grandeur. The fun came in recalling that, about to sing before their majesties, he had been a $15- a-month stenographer a few years am ' When tha haritnriA and his accompanist were ushered into the I music room, the queen and other ladies were awaiting them. His colorful emotional singing ot negro .spirituals seemed to touch the king greatly. He asked to have the singer presented and, shaking hands, remarked, 'I had had never heard negro spirituals before. They are beautiful.' And It is this great baritone who sang before the king and queen themselves who is to sing the first Friday night in April be fore a Salem audience. The following are the rules gov erning the contest for the musical setting of the $100 prize poem, "The Circuit Rider." written by Mary Carolyn Davies: 1. The contest shall be limited to contestants residing in Oregon, Washington and Idaho. 2. The prize winning setting is to be the property of Mr. It. A. Booth, donor of the prize of $100. 3. The setting may be for (1) chorus or (2) solo voice , and chorus. It should be suitable for singing out of doors, as It is the desire of Mr. Booth to have the setting, sung at the unveiling of the statue April 19th. The setting Believing with President Cool ldge that "the American home is the foundation of our national and individual well being" some of the foremost women of the United SUtea are affiliated with Better Homes In America, recently in corporated as a national public service institution, with Herbert Hoover. Secretary of Commerce, as president, and James Ford. Mas WILLIA it was suggested to her by a speech of the late President Hard Ins;. Mrs. John I). Sherman. Chairman of the Department of Applied Kducation of the General Federation of Women's Clubs, is a member of the board of directors of Better Homes in America. Dr. Louise Stanley, chief of the new Bureau of Home Economics of the United States Department of Agri culture, is a member of the organ- widely known housing epecialist, as i ization's advisory council. executive director. Here are three of the women who. although engrossed in other work of vast importance still find time to devote themselves to what they regard as the most important work of all the betterment of the American home. Mrs. William Brown Meloney, nationally known editor is vice president of Better Homes In America, The movement which has to-day grown into an educa tional force throughout America was initiated by her in 1922, when Better Homes in America an nounces as among its aims for 1924 the following purposes: To show the advantages of thrift for home ownership, to overcome our nat ional shortage of homes, now es timated at 600,000, to introduce freater efficiency into the homes of the United States, where fully 90 per cent of the home women of the country do their own work, to make American homes more at- home environment, to stimulate judicious purchasing for home Im provement, and to mobillxe com munity pride for a common object pride of home. , Better Homes week will take place from May 11 to May 18, when hundreds of communities throughout the nation will foster the public education in the funda mentals of home-making by Bet-t ter Homes demonstrations. Com munities in every state in the Union have already signified their intention of taking part in these demonstrations, the purpose of which is to sow seeds which will reap a harvest of better homes throughout the United States. Ap prOximately 1000 such demonstra tions were held 1923, and it is ex pected that the number will be greatly increased this year.

A signal was sent from New York to War saw and . came back . on a lower wave length from Warsaw, com pleting the circuit of 8500 miles in a little more than one-twentieth of a second. The time was meas ured by the distance between pho tographic impressions on a film in connection with a special timing device. Why is it that a "jars hound" will write or telegraph his appre ciation of a pleasing radio pro gram, while a musical highbrow will remain mute as an oyster? Jazz Is more tonic perhaps but anyhow one who appreciates good music would do well to write a word to that efifect to the broad casting station sending out a pro gram which he enjoys for that is the only way the taste of the radio public can be ascertained. In the southern winter resorts on the Atlantic coast radio is the popular fad. There are radio beach parties. Fashionable water nymphs gather around a portable receiving set and form a nucleus for the jolliest of radio parties. Since broadcasting stations have been notified of a long list of copyrighted music which they may not send out from thert studios without liability of suit, indepedn ent composers are beng encour aged to write music for these sta tions to try out on the listening public. Of course the music is first passed upon by competent critics but it seems extremely like ly that a composer who i9 at all gifted will now attain financial success without waiting for years in order to secure a favorable hearing. The winning copositions in the radio news music contest are now published and on sale. The prizes offered were two of $150.00 each Lindsay McPhail composed the winning song of which Jack Nel son wrote the words. Bert Green received the other cash prize for his Radio March and "Listen In' leceivedsuch' favorable comment that it also was published. This contest was of national interest Radio clocks are all right as far as they go but what this coun try needs is something that will lift a man right out of bed when the alarm goes off. New aircraft are now being con structed with an equipment that is altogether complete (for sending and receiving. A radio compass by means of which location can be exactly established is the new est item added to this equipment. England is the first country to build a radio lighthouse. A re volving aerial shaped like a four- pointed star, takes the place of revolving light. The impulses sent out can be picked up by ships at sea. One Salem man says his brain has a calloused spot from receiv ing so often the same impression in the same spot: "Pa, buy me radio set." The boy's idea worked Why not try out the same idea with "Trail 'em to Salem?" If we say it and write it often enough it's bound to work. By all means use the slogan in connection with stickers so there will be no doubt about which Salem we mean. nifles "Lovers of Troth." The membership la made up of the old er women of the church. About 30 members of the two classes gathered for the evening Refreshments were served in abundance- The Fourth birthday of Mar garet Mary Huckestein was , very prettily observed on Friday after noon when a group of the little girl's friends gathered at her home.
