Promptly at 8.30 the large audience which filled the City Hall on Friday evening to hear the dramatic recital given by the pupils of Alida V. Telg- mann, B. felt amply repaid, and showed by their rapt attention and generous applause throughout how much they appreciated the excellent numbers presented for their approval Mrs. Telgmann deserves the highest praise for her efforts which were so well directed and which were the re- sult of Friday's recital. , Perhaps the outstanding number of an excellent programme was the play in three acts, in which Mrs. Latta im- personated the five different characters of the play with a mastery of speech and interpretative power which reach- ed such a degree of perfection as to cause most favorable comment from those who heard her. A violin and pia- la Telgmann was the opening number of the programme, and which was most favorably received. The address of welcome, read by a young pupil of Mrs. Telgmann who shows promise as an elocutionist, was a particuldrly good number, as was no duet by Master Jack and Miss Leo-| 4 TOMORROW'S MENU Breakfast Stewed Dried Apricots Cereal Creamed Dried Beef on Toast Prune-Gems Coffee Dinner Rib Roast of Beef with Brown Gravy Franconia Potatoes Spinach Pineapple Salad Raspberry-Lemon Sherbet Coffees Supper Celery Spanish Omelet Hot Biscuits Nut Waifers Jam Iced Tea Is Your Sewing Room Attractive? Why need a sewing room be pain- ful to the sight? Why need it neces- sarily expose to full view its ugly dressing form, its sewing machine, its cutting table and its ironing board? The housekeeper who de- corates her sewing room artistically will find that she uses it frequently for other purposes than sewing--for the "specially private" corner in which to chat with her dearest wo- man friend, for ad hour's "read with a good novel, sometimes as an addi- tional bedroom in which to put an unexpected guest. I am going to de- scribe what I consider The Ideal Sew- ing Room: ~ If the room has a Northern expos- ure its color scheme is buff and a warm orange; but if sunny a cool gray-and-old-blue is best. The floor is painted and varnished, and almost entirely covered with a washable rug of the patterned-linoleum type. It the room has no closet in which to hide the dress-form, when "she" is not actually in use, then one corner is curtained off for this purpose. A large bookcase is an indispen- sable plece of furniture. Its shelves behind which one finds the porcu- pine-like pinchushion, the patters, an electric iron and holder, and all those other odds and ends which of- tend the eye in the average sewing room. Attached to one end of this bookcase is an ironing board (on hinges) which can be propped up with a stick when in use, but which hangs down flat against the book- case when not in use. Obviously, the bookcase must stand near an electric light plug or fixture, for the iron's use. ! The sewing machine may be hid* den in two ways: either by a screen stood around it, or as follows: Hang 2 mirror en the wall. Beneath this mirror stand an open-faced packing case which is entirely covered with cretonne and which has a cretonne front curtain. When not in use, the machine slips into the packing case, the curtain drops over it--and pres- to! We have simply a dressing table with its wall mirror. Two candle- sticks stood on the case will com- plete the delusion. The rest of the furniture consists of: a coueh heaped with pillows, two easy chairs, one straight chair, a small table which will hold a tea tray when the tired sewer needs re- freshment, and a pier-glass. The cutting table, of the folding type, is kept in the closet. All inquiries addressed to Miss Kirkman in. care of the "Efficient Housekeeping" department will be answered in these columns in their turn. This requires considerable time, however, owing to the great number recéived. So if a personal or quicker reply is desired,"a stamp- ed and self-addressed envelope must be enclosed with the question. Be sure to use YOUR full name, street number, and the name of your city and state. violin numbers, with Mr. O. F. Telg- mann at the piano, the programme was brought to a close with the sing- ing of the National Anthem. | The Family Market Basket The threatening weather of Saturday morning did not dampen the ardour of the marketers and there was the us- ual Saturday morning rush although the buyers showed more tendency to hurry through with the result that pro duce offered for sale by the farmers was taken up with very little delay or dickasing. The prices prevailing this week varied little from last week. Greens were in much demand and onions, carrots; beets and other vege- tables were, quickly disposed of. Ber- ties occupied a prominent place on the market and were somewhat better in uality than those offered thus far. They brought 18¢ and 20c. Fowl was selling at $1.25 but there was a scar- city of it on the market. Butter again sold at a general rate of 40c while eggs hovered about the usual 30c a dozen mark. hoe also a comic logue in cost by Miss Eva Newell. Little Isabel Sargent played Beethoven's Minuet and a Ma- surka by Bohm in excellent tone. A violin duet by Master W. Baker and Master Jack Telgmann most pleasing, and a recitation by Mil. dred Lee in costume entitled "The Gy- psy Flower Girl" was an excellent num ber and heartily encored. One 6f the best things seen in a long time in the way of musical-group work was the Dumbell Drill, in which five clever little girls kept perfect time to the "Anvil Chorus" from ll Trovatore. Their gestures were splendid and this number is des: g of special mention The children taking part were Misses Helen Mylks, C. Fraser, F. Robinson, N. Newell and Isabelle Sargent.
