Now children didn’t want to work, but they got tired waiting for somebody dse tp do it. If they would just put through an amendment to MAKE grown people all work, there would be no need to have this children one. Grown people stop ped working without an Amend ment or even a reason, so it will take more than an Amendment to start them. It will take a Miracle. The^ are going to pass another Prohibition Amendment, some body mislayed the rules of the Other one. The 19th amendment made Women vote,* some amend ments make us do something and some keep us from it. No. 21 will give men with Knee Breeches the vote. About the 25th Amendment will prohibit smoking and when they do, ‘Bull’ Durham will boot leg for a dollar a sack. (I knew. I would get that Ad worked in there somewhere.) THE CATBIRD The Catbird is very common over its entire range and is to be found wherever there are thickets and shrub bery to provide shelter. It is distin guished by its' dark gray or slate- colored body and black crown which give it a sombre appearance. The nest is made of leaves and twigs lined with rootlets and is usual ly placed in • thickets or trees from eight to fifteen feet above the ground. Catbirds prefer nesting near running water, or at least in damp localities. There are usually four greenish-blue eggs which are laid during May and June. When hatched, the young are fed worms and insects. The older birds, h wever, also eat fruit in sea son, which somewhat lowers them in the favor of fruit-raisers. Its song slightly resembles that of the Mocking bird in its great variety of notes! though its pleasing qualities are sometimes interrupted by catcalls from the which the Catbird gets its name. Although it is a well known songster, it does not rank so high in vocal ability as the Mocking bird, which is foremost among our common song birds. THE MOCKINGBIRD The Mockingbird is unusually grace ful. Its slender body and long tail are gray, except for several white parts, as the outer tail feathers and a bar across each wing at the base of the primaries. When the Mocking bird is in flight, the white feathers are very noticeable and add much to its general appearance. Its bulky nest of twigs, leaves, paper, and rootlets is- usually built from six to ten feet above the ground in trees or vines. Fivp greenish-blue eggs, heavily blotched with different shades of brown, are closely guarded by the courageous parents which do not hesitate to attack marauders. Their song has been so highly ap preciated that Mockingbirds were of ten in cages, until this practice was prohibited by law in recent years. Besides its characteristic song, the Mockingbird is expert in imitating other birds, from whose sdngs it com poses a medley which is indescribable, but long to be remembered. One can hear its beautiful song throughout the day and often on bright summer nights issuing from the tree-tops. Although the Mocking bird is America’s foremost songster, it is a native of the South and is often called the Southern Nightingale. AT FESTIVAL Gifted Artist To Be Heard At Spar tanburg Oiv Afternoon of May Seventh. Spartanburg, March 24.—In the years of his advance the art of Ossip Grabilowitsch, famous pianist, who will appear at the Spartanburg Music Festival Thursday afternoon, May 7, has acquired a patricial distinction that has placed him as one apart from the crowded ranks of contemporary artists, and as the possessor of an artistic dignity especially welcome in these latter days of tyrannous technic and shaggy sentimentality. Mr. Gabrilowitsch was bom in Pet- rograd in 1878. His musical educa tion had its beginning at the Petro- April A ] RE YOU PREPARED TO LOOK YOUR BEST WHEN THE LADIES ASK YOU TO HELP THEM SHOW OFF?

PITS. grad Conservatory of Music, where he came under the personal supervision of Antom Rubinstein, and was con tinued in Vienna, where he studied under the great master-pedagogue, Leschetizky. In 1896, Gabrilowitsch made his professional debut in Berlin. Although only eighteen years old at the time, so decided was his pianistic individuality that he immediately won both audiences and critics to unreserv ed enthusiasm. Following this ap pearance, he made extensive tours throughout Europe, and in 1900 came ;o this countijjr. Here, as elsewhere, le exerted the same viuatity of power which has since carried him to the onely height of artistic preeminence which he now occupies. Since his marriage in 1909 to Clara Olemens, the daughter of Mark Twain, Mr. Gabrilowitsch has identified him self more and more with the life of America. The last step in the process of his Americanization came in 1921 whep he became a citizen of the Unit ed States, thus forging the one final x>nd of his allegiance to the ideals and musical future of this country. The New York Times says: “Per- laps the most beautiful and poetic of iis achievements in this festival was his performance of the Beethoven. His translucent beauty of tone, the clearness of his articulation, the beau ty of his rhythm and phrasing were transportingly united in it." The New York Tribune says: “In spite of a rival program of pianb mu sic by another eminent player at Car negie Hall, Gabrilowitsch played to all seats sold’ at Aeolin hall. The E. major Nocturne and the C sharp minor Mazurka were interpreted as exquisite, tone-pictures, representing the best of this musician’s art and skill.” The Spartanburg Festival will be held this year on May 6th, 7th and 8th.
