It occurs in the third act. as a dance given for the entertainment of guests at a masked ball.

The dancers typifying the "hours" are also symbolic of the moral forces of darkness and light. The bewitching music is justly TODAY'S SOCIAL CALENDAR Rummage Sale, Altoona Council of Jewish Women, 1006 Bridge Htreet, closes this afternoon. Afternoon Semi-annual meeting Eastern P. R. R.

WOMEN BOTH MEET TODAY It seems a pity when two big social affairs like tho Spring meeting of the Women's Aid of the Eastern Pennsylvania Division, and the monthly meeting of the I.eugue of Women Voters must occur simultaneously. Probably nt least halt the women in either audience would like to attend both affairs. But the occurence Is duo purely to circumstances over which neither organization had control. Owing to the illness of Mrs. John O.

Miller, state president of the Leaguo of Women Voters, and the hope of a speedy recovery, the League postponed its meeting one day, changing the date from Wednesday, April 9, to Thursday, April 10, which happened to be the day set for the Women's Aid spring meeting. Mrs. Miller did not, however, recover sufficiently to address the League, and so Mrs. Mc-Cauley, of the State board of Women Voters, and who was booked for the May meeting, will be the speaker, as announced yesterday. The League will meet in the Logan room of the Penn Alto, where a.

luncheon to Mrs. McCauley, by the Executive Board and cabinet, will precede the meeting. Special music for the occasion will be furnished by the League Glee Club, under direction of Mrs. Mont Burley. Major King and J.

Banks Kurtz will be on hand to take part in the program in response to an invitation from the ladies to hear congressional candidates express their platforms. MR. AND MRS. KARL HAVE LINEN ANNIVERSARY Mr. and Mrs.

At any rate, an old Spanish Habanera melody with a striking lilt was used by Biiet aa the foundation of the famous song in his opera, "Carmen." which had first performance in Paris on March 3, 1ST5. and is now one of the most popular operas in the world- It Is the song which introduces "Carmen." and curiously enough, it is the thirteenth which Bizet provided for the purpose before he found one to suit the first Carmen, Madame Galli- Marie.

The new pleating, known as because it stands out from the garment like a cartridge belt, and rool trims of self fabric struck a new note in popularity for spring wear.

Sometimes it would seem that the spring costume cannot be too light in shade. Turquoise blue and pink tan. apricot, lighter shades of brick, light jade green and powder blue were favored by th? more youthful types for coats, frocks, suiu ar.d hats. The youthful type, by the way, have adopted the very short jacket effect, and double breasted fastenings as tre last note in spring suits. A NEW note in tailored frocks is ithe frank design in imitation of suits with mannish details and trim.

That, again, may be offset by the renewed interest you get in your job of preparing the family food by your trip. You iray decide that regular trips to the market don't pay but occasional ones do.

Her own ultimate wants are still uncertain: "none of us an really state them until the moment of their possible execution is at hand." she rays, "of one thing 1" am sure, that this independence will bring me the power to choose only such work as I feel will bring out the best I have to offer. Nobody can hope for more." Sada Cowan'a own experience stands back of her ideals and her utterances.

Why? The answer, says Sada Cowan, who has won success as a writer of original stories, adaptations and titles for the screen, is the desire for independence. Xot mere financial independence but the power that comes with standing alone. Her views on the subject are interesting, for Sac.a Cowan is one of those women who doesn't have to work, but does. 'The modern woman plans her fu ture just the same as n-a. has done through all the centuries when ne nas ibeen recognized as the family pro vider.

The woman who succeeds does not look forward to a life of ease after she has accumulated a certain amount, because the urge to do is too strong within her. and she realizes that lite is uninteresting without work. Many men succumb tj this delusion, but women never do. The avernsr who starts to work for a does so, not because she likes jt especially, but because her salary enables her to buy clothes and otherwise to prepare herself for marriage, the ultimate desire of most women. To her.
