Music is made up of rythm. melody and harmony. llytlmi appeals to the physical side. Melody appeals to. the. intellectual side. Harmony appeals to the spir- itual side of our natures. Perfect music is when these parts are equally developed. Music is one of the highest, forms of recreation.

The afternoon session in Memor- ial Hall, began at 2 o’clock with Mr. Lionel Stevenson, Director of Ex- tension Service, 0. A. 0., presiding. After the communit singing, which we had all enjoye at each meeting, led by Professor Blackwood, and a duet by two senior students, we lis- tened with interest to Mr. Putnam, who is well known to-all branches of the Women’s Institute, who stated that women are the real leaders in any movement in a community. They have greater ability and more patience in organizing, and persev- ere. He urged to depend on your own ability and not, to depend on assistance from outside, where the interest was not so keen. President J. C. Reynolds, in a few remarks, stated that Mr. Putnam was his first acquaintance when he arrived at the 0. A. 0. some thirty- two years ago. To develop the up réciation of music. 1.

Neat little scrap books were made, quite simply. How often you read some splendid article, say on “Suggestions for Entertaininc-” on “Suggestions for Entertaining,’ Menus, Helpful Hints, etc. We would like to save these articles, but, have no real place for them. If we had a scrap book or just a long envel- ope, neatly labeled, we could con- tribute to our information on each subject as we came across them in our reading. THE DURHAM CHRONICLE she but takes advan e. of the many Opportunities for sel -1mprovement within her reach, she may become a most fascinating young woman. There is more natural beauty in the country, and not the artificial beau- ty of the cities, but many fail to appneciate it or_eyen see it. In the afternoon at 3 o’clock, a prOgram was planned by the Stu- dent Christian Organization, when the topic, “The Girl and Her Reli- gion” was discussed. I did not at- tend this meeting, so am unable to tell you more“ abuot it. Sunday and Monday morning saw the majority of the delegates leave for their separate homes, everyone, I think, leaving well satisfied and happy with the entertainment of the past four days in which the pro- grams were full, but which seemed all too short, and nearly everyone hoped it would be their good for- tune to attend another conference, or still better, take a full course or a short course at Macdonald Institute. At the close of the program, Miss Ethel Chapman, who had played a prominent. part in the arranging of the conference, made a few short, complimentary remarks to the staff and students of Macdonald College, and called them to the platform where they were presented With flowers and candy by the delegates in slight recognition of the splen- did way they had entertained us all. They certainly did much to make our stay the delightful enter- tainment it proved. . Sunday morning, we were taken in roups to whatever church we wis ed to attend, where we were welcomed by the different pastors. We attended Chalmer’s Presbyterian tended Chalmer’s Presbyterian Church. --- wuuV-nuou IIUU‘UUWO Miss Dorothy Frost of Walkerton was one of the hostesses at Table 35, at which I sat, and Miss Durst ofJ Chesley proved a most efficient leader of one of the discussion groups I attended.

Many scientists doubt this po’ssi- hility, although they admit that people can inherit mental as well as physical traits. But they deny that events which occur before birth can have any bearing on the mind.

After complet- ing his business, he went over to the station to see about, his reserva- Ion. “Let me have sleeping accommoda- tion to New Y,ork” he said to the man at the window “For a single passenger?” ‘No, " he replied. '"I m mairied, but Im going alone this time; a single shelf will do.” “Upper or lower?” asked the agent. “You understand, of course, the low- er is higher than the upper. The higher price is for the lower berth. If you want it lower, you ll have to 120 higher. We sell the upper lower than the lower. In other words, the highe1,the lowe1.” “Then, why do they all prefer the lower?” inquired the traveller. _ WHY THE UPPER WAS LOWER Tea as a beverage is used in nearly every country in the world.
