There were six ele phants in the hand. “Do you know when you piny what you’re playing?” asked Jim. “I know I'm playing the same tune as you are,” said Jamie. "Do you know what that Is?”. "I too know I’m playing the same tune as you are, or that I am sup posed to,” said Jim. "But I am sure I don't know what it Is.” "Do you know?” they asked Norton. "Well,” said Norton, "I know we're supposed to play a number of tunes. The thing I am always afraid of is that we may each he playing a differ ent tune at the same time. But I don't suppose we would be, as we have good memories.” “It's a jolly'good thing we have, too,” said Jim, "for if we hadn't, 1 am sure I don’t know what would happen to the music. It would he pretty funny music.” "That It would,” said Jamie. "To be sure, I can remember which tunes we play and how we play them—I mean In what order and which of us plays which Instrument. I could nev er forget the queer Instrument I play and the weird sounds that it makes.” "Nor eould I,” said Jim. "Nor could I,” said Norton. “I think that is the great thing that helps us,” said Jamie. “If it weren’t for memories, just think what a ter rible time we would have. We would simply have the worst time im aginable, getting all mixed up in in struments. tunes and notes and all. As it Is, we do pretty well.

Carolina Branch of the National Musical Fede ration a new organization, in Colum bia, among others. The Club also pledged an amount to aid the other Music Clubs of ttie state in endowing a music scholar ship. Mrs. J. D. Smyser, the delegate to the State Federation in Rook Hill, gave a most interesting account of the meeting. She brought back with her several new ideas and sug- gestions which the Club expects to put into operation witli the opening of the new year’s work next fall. Plans were also made to raise the •money to finance the opera .which the Club expects to present next fall. At this meeting, Mr. Robert Lee rendered a violin solo which he ex pects to play before the Columbia Music Society next week. Mrs. J. (i. McMaster sang a beautiful vocal se lection.

J. don’t really think, even considering our fine memories, that we’re as great musi cians as the performing seals. They play with more spirit and tliey are fine at all their tricks. "Yes,” continued Jamie. ‘Tliey play an excellent game of hall, though we can do that, too. But they look so fine ami funny and slippery as they play and as their heads wave about. "They seem so clever because they haven’t our trunks or great legs to help them out. “Yes, they’re a great addition to the circus and as clever as any creatures can be." “Do you know,” said. Norton, "I’ye heard that people tit the circus have noticed our serious and solemn expres sions?" , “Why do you say sergms and solemn when one word will do the trick?” asked Jamie. "Oh well,” said Norton, "It is all right. I have time. I’m not due to go in the ring for quite a little while.” "That’s so,” agreed Jamie. “Pray continue what yoti were about to say and which I so rudely inter rupted.” "I was going to say that I had heard that folks had noticed how serious we looked when we were playing,'and that they had spoken about it.” “Good,” said Jamie. "Then they may thluk we're great musicians and that we have great elephant souls and that we would be in big city orchestras and perhaps play In operas were it not for the fact that we had promised ourselves to the circus for a good cum ber of years. “Yes, they may think that, for we mustn't tell them that our great and wonderful memories ‘are the things about us ‘that makes us musicians. We can remember what we're to play and how we're to play it rather than being aide to play because we are mu sical to our finger tips, as the saying goes. “It would be better In our case to say •musical to our trunk tips. I sup pose. But we’re not that, we’ve only good memories. No matter, we're part of the music of the circus and folks listen to us and e’ap at us, so as that's all tliey seem to want us for, let utr not worry over our shortcom ings, musically.” Poesn’t Get Ahead.
