President Somers has called upon the principals of all schools to set aside next Monday, April 8, on which to call for a contribution of one cent from each child to help relieve the 100,000 cases of French soldiers who are too ill to work and whose lies are in want. "They need our help." says the letter to the principals, which was received this morning. Mr. Somers also says: "French soldiers returning from war, who have been wounded, are entitled to a pension or A renewable gratuity; but the heroes who return from the front broken and dejected.

"Large sums of money are required to provide the necessary moral and material assistance, to find suitable employment for those who can still work, to teach new trades to those who can no longer follow their former calling, to supply medical at. tention, to care for families in distress and to provide sanitary housing and vacation resorts for the ailing children. The Committee for the Protection of French Soldiers Retired Disability (La Protection du Reforme No. 2) feels confident that by revealing this dire distress in its vast proportions it will enlist the sympathy of all."

Vicarino Shows Luscious Voice in Arias and the Elsa Fischer Quartet Plays, The Mundell Choral Club's concert last night in the grand ballroom of the Bossert was a delightful musica and socia occurrence. The club sang several "first time" numbers, besides a song by one of Brooklyn's composers, Bruno Hurn, the "Invictus." arranged by Paul Ambrose. This noble choral, sung by the Mundell forces with broad and fine phrasing and effect, contrasted with Tschaikowsky's "Ye Who the Longing Know." with its beautiful melodic form. The club sang it well, also the "Nocturne." by Mary Helen Brown, which instanced one of the best settings of the program. Clarity, surety and expression characterized the work of the ensemble.

"A Garden Courtship," by H. Waldo Warner, was sung with appreciation of its buoyant phrases, and its humor. The Spross number, "Sweet. Sweet Lady" (new, manuscript), was voiced in A charming manner. fitting its ballad-like style.

(to 1 the soldier girls at home), by Anna R. Fisher, sang itself into all hearts with its alusions to the soldier lads who go "to win the fight; to die, if need be for the It had a lilting swing. "Sheena Van" (new: first time), by Mrs. H. H.

A. Beach, made a strong impression through the able interpretation given it. It is a charming song. The Elsa Fischer String Quartet played with much artistry by Bruno Oscar Klein; "Astec dauce," by Frederick Preston Search; "Canzonetta," by Victor Herbert, and "Adagio," by Becker; "Adagietta," by Bizet, and "Scherzo," by Ippolitow Iwanow. Their tone, nunancing and musicianly handling of the numbers was unusually fine.

Mme. Regina Vicarino, American prima nonna soprano, gowned in black satin, sang for her Important numbers "Caro by Verdi, and the "Bell Song. from "Lakme," by Delibes. She disclosed a clear, luscious voice, colorature in style, and very expressive. In the song group she gave were Bemberg's "Chant Venetian," Faure's "Apres un Chausson's "Pipillons." and Bachelet's "'Chere Wilhelmina Muller accompanied ably.

Persons Attending the Concert. Last night's concert at the Hotel Bossert was a fitting close for the Mundell winter. season. which has been a notably brilliant one. With Mme.

Regina Vicarino, American prima donna soprano, the Elsa Fisher string quartet and the Mundell Choral Club, with Miss M. Louise Mundell directing and Miss Wilhelmina Muller at the piano, nothing short of pure enjoyment could have resulted. The club members in the pastelle colorings of their evening gowns and grouped before the palms and artistically draped flags decorating the grand ball room, were most attracitve.

Her colorature work was again in evidence in an aria from "Il Trova.

ni, also of the Chicago company, sang well the "Eri tu" aria of Verdi and joined soprano in a splendid duet from Verdi's opera, "Luisa Miller."
