The War Moth ers rummage sale Wednesday, and Friday the annual Harvest Home festival for the benefit of the Old People's home are among the outstanding events.

Roaming Bard Here On Monday A poet is coming to Salem Mon day night. A poet that booms about lions, antt darkles boom lah-boom-lah-boom-lah-boom, the ghosts are coming soon, and so on ad infinitum. Strange, too, he Is a popular poet, and he has been the sub ject of more lion hunts in Eng land and America, that any oth er American ' poet. He has been the honor guest at pink teas, and men's smokers, and he still re mains unspoiled. Vachel Lindsay Is Vachel Lindsay, and everyone loves him. Probably, too, its the "him" in his poetry that they love Lindsay has been coming to Salem twice before, but Monday night at Waller hall Vachel Lind say, "the Amercan Tramp Poet," will be with Salem people. But remember that Lindsay is human; he is no wild eyed, unin teresting poet. He is a man that everyone will "fall for." For lov ers and lovers to be of Lindsay, The Bookman, a current maga line, puts forth the following de lightful morsel: : "Vachel is ruddy, sandy haired. middle sized, with eyes the color of a gren twilight, and pale eye brows . . . First he bows very low, with excessive politeness; then he throws his bead back, like a lion at bav, to show you that no matter who you are, he is not afraid of you. When he is excit ed, he closes his eyelids and push es his ecstatic phiz toward you. "Vachel has endured as much adulation, female twitter, and homage, as any other five Amerl can poets. He is the only living American poet who has been lion ized in England. None of this business can spoil him; he is per manently simple, and permanent ly shrewd and sane; there is not a gram of bunk in him ... He is a glorious guest. He will plav games on the floor with the chil dren, give a hand in the dish washing, yell with laughter, and talk Oriental philosophy: by the fireside until dawn."

From-his first number! the magnificent fantalsle and fu gue in G minor of Bach, his work was brilliant, forceful and orig inal, and above all musical. And Noel avec Variations was played with an exquisite delicacy of conception, marked by subtle tone colorings that were a Joy to hear. His playing of the fifth sym phony of Widor, the Chimes of Bourdon, all were memorable and played with a masterful touch. Twice be played his own prelude and fugue in G minor, because as his manager stated It was better the second time. The prelude was full of originality and fine tonal effects. The last number, a test of a musician, the improvisation on impromptu themes, was superb. several themes were handed to the artist who improvised a sym phony In three movements from the themes. It was remarkable, and left one with the sense of having been privileged to listen to something very rare and fine. Among those who' handed in themes was, Bruce Putnam, Lu cille Ross, Margaret Fisher, Pro fessor T. S. Roberts, Florence rorresi ana James Banford of Portland.
