Art League Meets At Chemawa Forty members of the Salem Arts League met on Tuesday evening at the invitation of Mr. and Mrs. Harwood Hall for one of the most outstanding meetings In jnapy seasons. Probably the most instructive feature of the entire evening was the talk on Indian art by Captain Stacey. Cap tain Stacey brought out the high lights in Mr. Hall's own excellent Indian collection which is rated one of the best and most complete In the entire United States. He dwelt at some length on the in triquing study of pattern inter pretation, no design being with out Its meaning. The Indians never weave haphazardly. Cap tain Stacey explained how by' the difference in weave the devotee of the art may tell something of the Indian who completed a par ticular sDeclman 4 whether she was married, or whetfler. single. ; One of the most interesting points that Captain Stacey brought out is the fact that In dian art Is never ' perfect. In tentional errors are introduced be cause the Indians believed that an individual creating anything per fect dies. One of the most fas cinating articles shown was a basket woven by Romona. A -great many , of these objects may never be ieproduced, the Indians being one race leaving no legacy of art to Its descendents. A group of musical features made the program doubly inter esting. Numbers by the girls' octette and by the boys' quartette were followed by readings by Louis De Puis. Anna Petrovitch, an unusuajly beautiful Indian girl with an unusually beautiful voice, sang during the evening. Richard Haldene also gave ap preciated numbers. At the elose of the program the guests were invited into the do mestic science tea room . where a collation was served.

Great : 1 1 WSST IE nMi nfA n n nriu ju jn Tango May Be Last Gasp in Rhythm But Visitors Shun It PARIS. Dancing masters, and especially dancing mistresses, have decreed that the tango must be danced; that it is thelast gasp in rhythm and, the poesy of motion. But the decrees are lost On most of the visitors to" Paris. Even Frenchmen decline It, . Spaniards and South Americans make a majority ot the dancers in fashionable clubs and cafes when the tango comes on. This is es pecially true at afternoon dances, when most of the participants are not in formal Jress. Street clothes and the -tango do not so well to gether, and it cannot b done at all la Oxford togs. One American girl who refused the tango at a tea party laughing ly apologized: M have given It up; I have iecided jthat itxoald only be danced with some man one Is desperately in love with and should be done - on a secladed verandah in the moonlight. It is too hard to atage it properly' ; ' HARRISBURG. JContraets let for 4146 feet sewer line, at 14&40. ON ONE HALF OF STORE ROOM, "THE LIBERTY STREET SIDE," AND MUST GIVE IT UP BY JUNE 1st, 1926 F.
