Plea For Furnishings
For Bethesda Mission
The women of the various churches
of Harrisburg who have set them
selves to the task of furnishing the
new bedrooms in the enlarged quar
ters of Bethesda Mission are organ
ized under special committees repre
senting special kinds of furnishings.
The heads of these committees met
yesterday at the mission to "take
account of stock" gathered through
the individual donations of the gen
eral public.' The reports were en
couraging and the women sanguine
of greater success ahead, some an
ticipating additional material from
their own churches which had
scarcely got started in giving.
Bureaus are needed more than any
other article of furniture, and pil
lows, blankets and small rugs are
much desired. All sorts of wash
able furnishings have been slow in
coming in, from the thin goods, like
curtains, to the .heavier bureau
scarfs, towels, pillowslips, sheets
ami bedspreads. It is hoped that
willing donors who fail to iind these
articles available for gilts, wilt re
member that the committee will
gladly receive money to furnish
what is lacking. It is essential in
carrying on the growing work of our
City Mission that the bedrooms for
the men the mission desires to help,
be*furnished respectably. This will
attract the men and encourage them
I to lead clean, honest lives.

Y. w. C.TNOTES
Miss Elisa Cortez, secretary of the
j South American Y. W. C. A., at
j Beunos Aires, who works with Miss
liene Sheppard, general secretary,
will speak to-morrow afternoqn at 5
o'clock vespers at the local Y. W. C.
A. The service is in charge of the
Harrisburg Spanish and Bible Clubs.
Mrs. Melvin Menges, instructor in
Spanish, will preside and Mr. Canier
er, president of the club, will be one
;of the speakers. The Spanish Club
I will sing "America" in Spanish. A
social hour, in charge of Mrs. J. B.
Carruthers and Mrs. Blair, will fol
low.
Miss Cortez gave an interesting
talk last evening at open forum of
the industrial clubs. She told about
her work in South America and of
the help the Y. W. C. A. is to the
business girls of that country. She
has charge of work connected di
rectly with the Latin-American girls,
I v. hile Miss Sheppard superintends the
| work of the English, French and
Swedish departments.
The United States is divided into
eleven Y. W. C. A. tields. each one
supporting a secretary in foreign
lands. The East Central field, which
includes Pennsylvania. Delaware and
Maryland, supports Miss Sheppard.
Miss Cortez asks Pennsylvania to
support Miss Sheppard, so that Mary
j land and Delaware may support an-
I other secretary.
In telling about the manners and
customs of the girls in South Amer
ipa, Miss Cortex said that, contrary
to the usually accepted theories,
there are blondes and even red-head
ed girls in South America. Of course,
: brunettes predominate, but the fair
■ er of the species have a good show
ing. As for the dress of the girls,
it is more up-to-date than that of
the North American girls; in fact, it
is six months in advance. Since sea
sons "down there" are the reverse of
ours, they are now wearing the pat
tern of garments that we will not
kr.ow until next fall.
Miss Cortez corrected another pop
ular misconceived idea that South
America is entirely a tropical coun
try. "In Buenos Aires," she said,
"one wears furs and has chilblains."
Club Supper Well Attended
The usual Friday club supper was
served in the Y. W. C. A. clubroom to
the following guests: Misses Mae
Patterson, Ruth Arnold, Edna ICess

IMPORTANTEVENT
ON APRIL FIRST
Trio dc Lutece Will Be. Pre
sented in Concert by the
Wednesday Club
In bringing to the fare the Trio de
Lutece, that combinaUon of artists
which will appear on Monday, April
1, in Fahnestock Hall, the Wednes
day Club presents an organization
of the highest type. In the first
place, his now famous trio boasts of
three great artists, George Borrere,
die most prominent flute virtuoso of
this generation;- Carlos Salzedo, the
most noted harpist of to-day, and
Paul Kefer, the eminent 'cellist who
was for five years soloist of the New
York Symphony Orchestra. Each an
individual-artist, these men present
in their ensemble work an equal per
fection.
The Trio de Eutece is so named
in honor of the native city of these
artists, namely, Pfcris. Paris in the
early days of conquest was known
as Lutetia, or Eutece.
The niusical literature upon the
programs offered by the Trio de
Lutece embraces the works of the
earlier masters such as Mozart, Han
del and Hayden and the ultra-mod
ern compositions of contemporary
writers as Debussy, Ravel, etc. And
although, in every sense the pro
grams are of a classical nature, they
are not conducive to weariness for
the layman in music who finds it im
possible to spend time in the study
of harmony. Almost all of the mu
sic titted for the interpretation of
the Trio de Eutece, is of a happy,
joyous nature, Imbued with elegance,
giving each artist the opportunity
to reveal his art as soloist.
PRAISE FOR CANTATA
Harrisburg, Pa.
To the Musical Editor of Telegraph:
Noting you have a special page in
your paper every week about the
music given in the churches of your
city, as a retired musician and friend
of all good music. I yish to state that
the cantata "Gallia," by Gounod,
given by the choir of St. Stephen's
Church last Sunday evening, was
without a doubt one of the most
beautiful numbers given in Harris
burg for some time. The story of
France's sorrow could not have been
sung at a more appropriate time and
think this work of art should be re
peated at a time when all the music
loving people of Harrisburg could
hear the story of afflicted France
during the Franco-Prussian war.
Mrs. Gobin Vallercliamp, who assist
ed this yonderftil choir of men and
boys, may indeed be called an artist,
for her interpretations of the solo
numbers and the beautiful obligato
which gradually led the choir to one
of the most wonderful climaxes ever
written, was indeed a work of art.
A FRIEND OF GOOD MUSIC.
