Al.l. peace that will hold its northwest con ference in Portland, February 16 and QUZZ' By GERTRUDE ROBISON ' ' . THERE -was a man once who play & fcli wife .up out of hell re Bomber f There was the great god JPan and the greater god Apollo. There ,tras Taeoctiteg and Caecclia, anil Jen ny Lind. And last night there was the tApollo club concert and Madame Win oifrod Lugrin Fahey. Madame Pahey of the Irish name and Canadian origt aa and. tne voice that is of no nation ality or country, ibirt the interpreta tion of the emotions of every age and people since time began. There are get terms and special idioms that one is supposed to use in describing an artist's" triumph; but there is no phrase or expression in the .English language that can quite por tray the qualities jaf Madamo Fahey 's woioe. Perhaps the" compilers of the standard dictionary and the author of toe Thesaurus, never having had the privilege of hearing her sing can be fceld excusable. Somewhere elso in the paper you will find a detailed and elaborated account of the marvellous access of the Apollo ehib concert last evening. It will, no doulbt, be filled with subtle compliments to the mem fcers and well deserved tributes to Mr. Todd, the efficient director. My di rect toneera is with the audience. Boing thing of 'beauty this audi oce it was according to the logic of oet, a joy forever. Surely no gayer r mom brilliant assemblage ever gath red in the golden days at the court of the Tudor queen or thronged to a performance in an Elizabethan theater to listen to those works of the great waster that the diary writers of the Ayr pronounced rubbish and posterity ado famous. - iColor, youth, gaiety, combined with intellect and apprecia- tiou, made the company one not easi-, Jy surpassed. Tbnre was laughter and happy ban ter; thore were glances of admiration nd looks of shy envy half concealed liehind dainty fans or frankly exchang ed between groups. There was a dark kaired girl thnt looked like a poppy i hor gy crimson gown. There was slender girl with yellow hair and a pretty green dress for all the world like a daffodil in an early spring gar den. There was a little maid in a shocr white frock and a halo of auburn curls who reminded one of palo saiuts in kigh cathedral windows. And fcnn- - Let us your I ; k JFmmmmh I'll I .

Their gnllantry would have made the traditional knights errant turn in their tombs were it not that those bedeni zened lordg have been dust theso many years. But society columns aro essen tially for women so mere man must needs be content with a brief mention. If there is such a thing as the trans migration of souls, I am quite certain that all society editors change at death into living, "breathing adjectives. Nev ertheless, looking around at ha people gathered in the opera houso last night the only word that could make itself recognized was one that would make the hair of a self -respecting English professor stand on end. "Beautiful nessl" Sheer out-and-ont "beautiful nessl" Than the lights went out in the pit and the curtain was raised and all the world became a magic woof, woven through with the golden thread of woman 's " voice. The "light fantastic" is about to come into its own iu Salem again. Close upon the removal of the prohib itive ban Ion ehurches, schools, thea ters and social gatherings comes the announcement from health , headquar ters, that the order forbidding dances has been revoked.. Lacy, frilly dancing frocks are being cheerfully exhumed lrom oedar chests and lavender scent ed closets, young matrons whose "win tho war" habits have not wholly left them, are developing temporary wrin kles over such weighty problems as how to make last season's pink char mouse linto tho latest Vanity Fair cre ation, or the number of yards of new material needed to remodel a . party dross into a semblance of Mrs. Vernon Castle's newest gown. Cinderella slip pers and dainty silk stockings are be ing put in readiness, and the entire dancing public is literally holding its breath awaiting tho announcement of the first ball of tho season. 4 tttttttf ttttttttttttttTT funis home- 'VE heard that the that day And a distant storm was droning, And the men that man the bfe boats say That the harbor bar was moaning. others speak of the swell and Oip Of the waves, and the storm clouds pilings But all I saw was a painted ship And his brave lips smiling.

Various commit tees are being formed for the purpose of making the recoption a grand suc cess, and giving the boys a welcome they will never forget. . Acting as a grand finale to the Apol lo club festivities last evening was the delightfully informal reception given by Mrs. W. T. Jenks at her home on Summer street. Without a doulbt this was one of the largest and most elite gatherings of the present social sea son, between sixty and seventy five mombers of the club and their imme diate frlonds being present. A beauti ful and artistic note, wholly in keep ing with the occasion was realized in the lovely decorations of sedate hot house plants and brilliant carnations. At a late hour dainty refreshments were served by the gracious hostess. Madame Winnifrod Lugrin 'Fahey, idol of the northwest mustca world, was the guest of honor. Her accompan ist, Mrs. Grace Soltau was also pres ent. Miss Hazel Price and Miss Marie Bennett loft for Portland th)s morning to visit with frionds and attend the performances of "Fuust" and "II Tro vatore" at the Auditorium.

Mrs. Castner -will appoint delegates for Oregon, and all elub women of the state and city are urged to attend the luncheon and meet the distinguished guest. Madame Winifred Logon 'Fahey, who sang 'with eueh phenomenal suc cess at the Apollo club concert hist evening, was the guest of nonor yes terday afternoon at a charming lunch eon given by Mrs. John KODerts at ner home on State street. A delicate and artistic elffect was achieved in the dainty decorations of pale yellow and lavender, prettily accentuated by the individual favors of tne same unpre tentious coloring. Overs were laid for eight guests, including Madame win nifred Lugrin Fahey, Mrs. David I. Soltau, Mrs. John Todd, Miss Margar et Gosper, Mrs. T. A. Livesley, Mrs. William Burghardt, Jr., Mrs. Lincoln Van Doren and Mrs. Koberts, the host ess. Mrs. David I. Soltau is a resident of Taeoma, Washington, and is Ma dame Fahey 's accompanist.

Father O'Hara, who is an active and import ant member of the Knights of Colum buii order, has recently returned ifrom France. He took part in the world fam ed battle of the Argonne, and had many interesting and instructive stor ies to relate about the Yank soldiers and their wonderful ability. He also gave some vivid word pictures of tie plac ewhere the "Lost .Battalion" was entrnmied. and the "wood they call the Eouge Boquet" made immortal by Joyce Kilmers magnificent poem. Fath er O'Hara, is also director general oi all the Tarochial schools of Oregon and his visit to the Capital city was strictly an Official one. . -i Madnme Winnif red Lugrin Fahey is Irish only by marriage. Therefore there was no touch of iblarney at ail, at an, in the pretty speech she mado at Mrs. W. T. Jenks reception lasc evening. Speaking directly to Mr. Todd she said in part, "it was a periect wonoer iu me to find in a town of this size an Apollo club of such marvellous abil ity. The blending of the voices and the wonderful harmony of the entire concert would 8o credit to cities many times the size of Salem." It must be remembered that Madame Fahey nails from Canada where ities have been growing and expanding since the timo of Marquette and Joliet, and thiB fact adds greater weight to her tribute. Sho complimented Mr. Todd on his direc tion and the entire club on. its singin lar triumph. 'WW.

Mr. Pearson had two pairs of shoes re soled with Neolin Soles, and after wearing them for twenty months writes "I will have to get new shoes sometime, but so far as the soles are concerned, that time seems as far distant as when they were new." This is typical of the experience millions are having with Neolin Soles. Created by Science to be durable, flexible and waterproof, these soles are an important factor in cutting shoe expense. You can get them on new shoes for the whole family, and for re-soling.

The meeting was in charge of President Mills of the company, who spoke briefly of the object of the eon ference. He then called upon Mr. Jenks who presented to the growers the great need of getting down to a busi ness basis in the matter ef handling their product. He emphasized the fact that they needed to have their' business figured out as closely as to costs and orofits ns the manufacturer and dealer.
