'WOMEN'S CORNER] " SNOWFLAKES Out of grey skies they came flutter- ing down, Over the country and over the town Swiftly and silently wending their way Till over the earth a white carpet lay, They powdered the trees and bushes and things Till they looked as if brushed by fairy wings And out where the roots in the gar- den lay They wore a coverlet bright as day. Then where the summer flowers had been ' They whispered "good-night" as they tucked them in. And bade them sleep till the warm sweet rain And the robin's note should them again, They flew through the town playing hide-and-seek And lightly they check > Till he laughed with glee and tried to grasp The feathery flakes in his rosy clasp. They sped down the road and over the hill, wake kissed a baby's lone and still, They touched with white the loftv pines, And danced 'where the lamp in the lighthouse shines Then away and away through the whitening night The madcap snowflakes quite. fingers vanished --Helena Driscoll.

SPLENDID CONCERT AT ST. ANDREW'S First Appearance of Several * Artists in Oshawa Varied and complete was the program at St. Andrew's Church last evening. Some of the artists who took part are well known to Oshawa audiences having appeared on many programs in the eity, the others, all of Toronto, were until last night known here, only by re- putation. Their numbers represent- ed last evening conyinced their hearers that they wére worthy of considerable mention. Mr. Balfour, a clever magician performed most amazing tricks which were accom- panied by a continual flood of funny and witty jokes, He appeared twice on the program and the enthusiasm with which he was welcomed to the platform the second time speaks for the popular favor he won with his audience at first. Miss Evelyn Trick who has es- tablished a name for herself in the city as an elocutionist was up to her usually good mark, in the sel- ections which she gave.

MUSIC STUDY CLUB MONTHLY MEETING A Representative of Bow- manville Club Supplies Program The Oshawa held a very enjoyable meeting at Rotary Hall Monday evening. Following the successful and inter- esting demonstration of public schocl music instruction put on by the Ro- tarians and attended by some of the music club members, the regular monthly meeting of the club took place. . The president dispensed with min- utes and other business items and after a few introductory remark gave over the full time to those who to present Progra group of ladies and gentlemen Stud ere the The ning number on the program arming piano | solo by Mre. McGirr, Mrs, MeGirr's playing is always a pleasure to her listeners for they are at once aware of the sincere feeling with which | she plays her compositions. New, | to a number present, was the fact that Dr, Grant Berry was talented as a reader, His two numbers which were much appreciated were | "The Wreck of the Julie Plant" | and "Leetle PBateese." Ruby Ram- | say Rouse accompanied at the piano for both of these Drummond poems, This artist also appeared on the program in one number, a piano solo, which received a flood of applause, and was indeed worthy of it. Although the selection she chose for an encore was somewhat Jight in comparison with her first, it displayed a marked talent for playing with deftness of fingers. Ruby Ramsay Rouse although never having appeared in Oshawa before, is not a stranger to those who often "'tune-in" on her con- certs which are broadcasted {rom time to time. Last night was the first oppor- tunity that people of this city had to hear the Reiberto Quartette of which Mrs Berry is leader. The quarette consists of Mr. and Mrs, Jack Reid of Toronto, Mr, Clar- ence Toaze, Toronto, and Mrs, Berry. Miss McIntyre, Oshawa is accompanist "IMlora's Holiday" a cycle of four English melodies. It consists of four quartette numbers and four solos, This was the work given by the Reiberto Quartettee last evening, It was extremely well done and considering the fact that the quarette is very "young" all included in it are deserving of a great deal of praise. cores | Princess Silhouette For Smart Juniors A Ton Ta ay bs EE he Pr oR Sigg to dzaat sy Who Follow Paris Mode to Gain Admiration By ANNETTE You'll just love this quaint pretty dress in calico print in pale blue coloring. ; : It's a modification of the old fash- ioned mother hubbard dress, It's one-piece affair.

Burgess You'll find if you are there to see, The fiercest folk may tender be. --Sammy Jay. c------ Sammy Jay knew just where that lost baby Owl was, You see, Sammy had seen that baby pushed from the nest by the other baby. He had secon the unfortunate little Owl fall from branch to branch of the tree and finally land on the ground, Then instinctively that baby had crawled tnder a little hemlock tree, the branches of which grew very close to the ground. You might have passed right close to that little tree and not see that Baby Owl, So. Sammy knew where it was and once or twice he was almost tempted to tel) Mrs. Hooty, To be quite truthful, he didn't dare make his presence known. So he kept his tongue still and watched Mrs. Hooty and Hooty worry and hunt. "Ther'es one thing I don't un- derstand," thought Sammy, "and that 1s why that baby doesn't ery and let hig father and mother know where he is. It seems queer to me that he keeps so still, T wonder it perhaps he was badly hurt." Now the little Owl wasn't hurt, but jt had had the hreath knocked out of it and it didu't feel any too good, It had lost its appetite. All the little fellow wanted to do just then was. to keep quiet and sleep, s0 he pald no. attention to what was going on up above.

Mrs. Hooty alighted close by the nest. She was just reaching to give the greedy baby what she had brought when she heard a sound caused her to turn her head and sit perfectly still. You know she has very wonderful ears. They can hear little sounds that you and I would not hear at all, The baby in the nest continued to demand its food, Mrs, Hooty paid no attention to those demands, Instead, she spread her wings and silently sailed down to the ground. She called in a low tone, Thera was an answer, A second later Mrs, Hooty peered under ga little hemlock tree and there was the lost baby! Such a fuss as Mrs, Hooty made! She pushed that baby out where she could look him over. No hen ever fussed over her chicken any more than Mrs, Hooty fussed over that baby. She tore to i the food she had brought So he kept his tongue still and watched Mrs, Hooty and Hooty worry and hunt discovered him. Sammy hung around for some time, but appar- ently Hooty and Mrs, Hooty had given up looking for the lost baby and were giving all their attention to the one in the nest. Finally, being hungry himself, Sammy flew away to get someothiLg to eat, It was just after Sammy left-- and you may be sure that he took care to leave in such a way that he wouldn't be seen by the Owls --that Mrs, Hooty returned with more food for that baby in the nest. As usual, the greedy little rascal beggn to make a great fuss and fed the little Owl, paying no attention to the indignant cries of the baby up in 'he nest, Just about the time that the baby had swallowed "the last of the food she had brought, Hooty himself arrived at the nest. Before he had a chance to feed the baby there, Mrs. Hooty called to him. 'Down sailed Hooty and you can imagine his surprise when he dis- covered that lost baby, Mrs, Hooty took the food he had brought and began to feed the aby. Mean- while, the one up ir the nest was making a great fuss and feeling very much abused. 1 (Copyright, 1930; by T. W. Bur- goss) The next story: "One Up and One Down." that CAREFUL ABOUT THAT "What?
