From out the silence comes a during song; The great hills lift their voices, and their cry Is heard through all life's turmoil; loud and high It calls us to them, from the struggling throng. The bare, wide deserts, with their burning sands, Have poignant calls, which all their kindred bear; Their spell of desolation and of fear Has mightier lure than all the verdured lande.

The lonely prairies, where the seas of green Unbroken sweep to the horizon line, Where man has left no imprint and no sign, Call to us always, though seas intervene. The forests, stately, beautiful, which bring Down balm from heaven for every weary soulTheir voices plead in every organ's roll, We hear their call in all the winds that sing. And the great oceans from each beach We feel their salt spray on our parching lips; Their waves moan in each wind that onward elipe; By day' and night they call-call and beseech. Through all the tumult of the street rings clear Their noiseless clamor and their voicelees cry; The strong winds bring it, piercing, sweet. and high It calls -and all the soul awakes to hear.

-Ninette M. Lowater in N. Y. Sun. Judge Griscomb': Son-in-Law By BRYANT C.

ROGERS. EVENING NEWS. (Copyright, 1910, by Associated Literary Press) That Judge Griscomb was wealthy and did not care for society everybody knew; that his daughter Mabel was handsome and accomplished und a social favorite was also a fixed fact. It was observed, over, and over again, that she was not like her father. He regarded the society dawdler as a cumberer on the earth; she had a.

dozen of them fluttering around her. "Mabei," he would say as they sat down in the library in the evening, now and then, for a companionable little talk, "what do you find solid in society?" "To getting home as soon after midnight as I can," she laughingly replied. "You have many young men calling Here?" "Ten or a dozen." "And the society papers are hinting about this and that admirer?" "In every number." "You are 20 years old. You are handsome and educated; and they know my bank account to a dollar. sometimes encounter one of your admirers and callers." "Poor old daddie! But what must be your feelings when you do!" "Marriage will come, Mabel, and the son-in-law will come.

I've wondered what he will be I've wondered if a girl who took after her Lardheaded old father could find a man among these pink-tea "It's the foolish women that make the silly men. It they looked for men instead of butterflies then men could be found. The women of society do not ask if a man has done great things In finance, science, art, invention or what not. The question is: can he talk to entertain and amuse?" "And what are you going to do?" asked the father in a dubious tone. "Now daddie, don't you worry one little bit.

You shall see the man and have a chance to judge him before he becomes your son-in-law." It was said of Phillip Barton that he was a society butterfly. He was born with a gold spoon in his mouth. He had time to kill. He had never made a dollar for himself, but when he picked up a fallen fan and presented it to a lady a score of persons held their breath at the grace of it. He was just a rich young man-just a dawdler-just a butterfly! He was one of those who danced and dangled about Miss Griscomb.

He was one of the dozen who admired. He talked -rapidity and thought she was interested; he flattered, and thought she was pleased. He started to propose marriage, and she gave his such a look as not only to check him, but to set him to thinking very seriously. Way back, among Mr. Barton's ancestors, there had been a hard-headed man- shoemaker, blacksmith, banker or what.

From him there had drifted down something worth preserving. Society had insisted on the young man being a dawdler and a butterfly. It had never taken him seriously. He admired Miss Griscomb in a society way. For 'social reasons he felt it a sort of a duty to fall in love with her and ask for her hand.

When he was ready to put his ideas into words he got a surprise. She was in society, but not of it. It came to him as he looked into her eyes that she would never give her heart to a man like him. It any of his friends had said to another that he took this matter seriously to heart, there would have been smiles and laughter. From that far-back ancestor came the leaven, and Mr.

Philip Barton saw things and thought of things and didthings. It was said that he had gone to Europe. One spring day a farmer up in Conneeticut was leaning over his gate and looking up and down the road. It was corn planting time, and he was without help. Afar off he saw a man coming with sachel in hand.

"Walks purty smart for a tramp," mused the farmer, "but mebbe he's new to the road. I'll either set him to work or scare him to death. Got to get that sweet corn in or the hotel won't have any. for August. Hello, you -want a job at good pay?" "I'm ready for, work if you'll show me how, was the reply.

"Hain't used to it, eh? You don't look up to much, but most anybody can plant corn. Five kernels to a hill, and cover 'em up well. Hope you ain't a gambler or anything of that kind, and that the police won't be after you." He was on that point, and within an hour the stranger was working in the cornfield. beside the farmer. He chopped his feet with the hoe.

several times, but soon got the hang of It, and at noon, when he sat down to the table with the farmer and his wife he felt that he had made a start. Both the farmer and his wife were curious about him, but they learned little. They came to the decision he was no tramp, and that neither WAR he a horse-thief. When cornplanting was over, Barnes, as the stranger called himself, was taken on as a hired man. He learned to split wood, milk cows, hold the plow and do other farm work.

His back ached and he got over it. His bands bite- MY LADY'S MIRROR. MODISH LEGHORN HAT. French leghorns are tremendously popular for summer millinery, and one sees them trimmed for dressy hats and again in severe fashion for wear with tailor suits. Here is a stylish model whose wide brim turns at back and rolls gracefully in front, bound all around with black velvet.

About the crown is a band of wide black velvet ribbon, caught in front with a huge pink rose, and at back are fastened three handsome white plumes. tered and became calloused. And the farmer said of him: "Never had a hired man who asked so many questions. He. wants to know all about everything.

Shouldn't wonder if he'd' a pretty good farmer in time. Mebbe he used to be what they call a confidence man, but I'm not holdin' it up him. He's seen the error of his ways. And when August came Judge Griscomb and his daughter went up to the Falls house for a month, as they had done for five or six seasons. Newport and its stupidities for July--the Falls house and quiet and rest for August.

"Well, Barnes," said the farmer to the hired man one day, "the Falls folks are just itchin' for some sweet green corn. I've been down in the field, and I guess we can pick about six dozen ears. You may hitch up the old mare in the mornin' and drive over there with 'em. Tell 'em more will be ready in about four days." Miss Mabel Griscomb sat on a bench under the shade of a tree at the corner of the Falls house. She looked up from the book that was not interesting her much to see a horse and wagon coming and aiming to drive around to the rear of the house.

The driver had on a straw hat, was without a coat, and had a four or five days' growth of beard. She glanced at him and gave a start of surprise. He glanced at her, and his sunburned face took on a deeper color. No nod of recognition- -no word. He drove out of the grounds by another way.

Four days later, Miss Griscomb was wandering along the main highway, stopping to cull a flower here and watch a squirrel there, when the same wagon and driver appeared. More green corn for the hotel. She stood aside as the vehicle came up and bowed to the man with the lines. He lifted his hat, but did not halt. Oh, yes; she was sure of his identity, and he of hers.

Every three or four days during the month he appeared. He brought green corn, new potatoes, squashes, onions, radishes and other good things to eat. Always there was a nod, but no word between the two. The judge and his daughter returned to the city at the end of the month, and society came to life. It asked after Philip Barton, but no one replied.

September and October came and went, and one evening the father and daughter sat down for one of their talks. "Father," said Mable after a bit. "Philip Barton Is to call here tomorrow afternoon. He is finished with his farm work for the season. He has no longer the wings of a so-called butterfly but the sunburn and callous- GIRLS' DRESS.

its annual meeting yesterday manifested beyond question that not for many years has its vitality been stronger or more charged with portents for usefulness than now. The president, Mrs. Thomas B. Reading, while avowedly disappointed with the results apparent, during the year of her administration, must still realize that her own broad appreciation of the hampered efforts of her predecessor were in no wise due to lack of executive force, foresight of judgment: but, instead, the enthrallment of old conditions stifling the entirely new demands of the present- and also Mrs. Reading has seen with clear vision what is needed to restore the Women's Union to the center of usefulness in Buffalo.

All this was shown in her address, which is partially given In this report. Mrs. Moot to be Next President. All through the building yesterday was heard the undenied report that Mrs. Adelbert Moot Is to be the next president, and this will give general satisfaction and assure everybody that whatever possibilities reside in this splendid institution for vital usefulness will be brought out.

Mrs. Moot is a woman full of Ideas, self-resourceful and able to enlist the co-operation of others. Mrs. Henry C. Fiske, honorary dent, was one of the most conspicuous women at the union yesterday, speaking in the annual meeting for the drinking cups to be used in the library and on other topics where her splendid judgment and years of union work made her words of value.

Luncheon and Tea. The chairman of the social affairs committee, Mrs. Anselm J. Smith, most admirably arranged for a pleasant social part of the annual meeting. Luncheon was served buffet in the library from 12 to 2 o'clock, and tea and coffee during the afternoon from a table decorated with spring flowers by Mrs.

Smith and her committee, including Mrs. M. Emmet Taber, Mrs. Edward B. Lynch, Mrs.

B. Alice Arnold, Mrs. Charles H. Stolzenbach, Mrs. John MacGlashan, Mrs.

John McGregor, Mrs: Alonzo Clarkson, Mrs. M. G. Benjamin, Mrs. George W.

Bingham, Mrs. George E. Lundquist, Mrs. M. Barger and Mrs.

R. W. Miller. Mrs. Thomas B.

Reading, president of the Women's Industrial and Educational Union, called the meeting to order at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, when the annual reports were presented. Mrs. Reading has irrevocably declined all re-elections, and therefore her admirable address was a farewell as well as a resume of the past year's effort, and work and suggestions for the future. Among other things, she said: are just closing a strenuous and most trying year. We have surmounted many difficulties and accomplished some good; but to say that we are satisfied with the result would not be true, because it is in no way commensurate with the possibilities of our building and the strength of our organization.

"What has been accomplished will appear in the reports of the varlous committees, but in- reviewing that work it will be seen that our greatest effort has been spent in the endeavor to meet the expense of maintenance. and that the philanthropic effort with its ethical value, has been small in comparison. years ago the Women's Union was the social center of our city. Strangers coming to make their home here joined the union that they might become acquainted and have an opportunity to enter into the charitable and philanthropic work of the city. Financial aid of public spirited and benevolent citizens was generously given because the good work being done was easily recognized, and bequests for the various departments were so frequent that the financial side was never a burden.

There were no other clubhouses or settlements, nor Young Women's Christian Association with all its departments. Domestic science was not taught in the public schools. There was no city federation with its 6000 women interested in civic improvement. "Any thoughtful person must see how the work, pioneered go splendidly by the women who founded this institution, has gone from us and been scattered throughout the various other channels, and that since the city schools are teaching domestic science, there will eventually be no need for us to do so. That the officers and board of.

directors have realized these conditions is manifest in the efforts that have been made during the year to find the right channel umong the many needs of our city for our energies and power. That there is a great work for this union to do no one doubts; and when that work is settled up the members will rally with the old energy and enthusiasm to accompiish it. "An industrial school for girls, for which our building is particularly adapted, could be started here, which would eventually become a part of the city school system. I am very confldent, and I have in mind a workingplan by which it could be accomplished, but this is a matter for the new board of directors and officers to take up. "Another effort of the past year has been that of centralization and co-operation.

"The union is now the headquarters for the Suffrage Society, numbering 00000000000000000000000000 0000000000 Light, Yet Strong Summer Furniture There is something more than the mere name to look to when buying summer furniture. appearances are deceptive. It must be unusually strong and yet have lightness both in effect and reality. Above all it should be cool looking and finally it certainly pays to be sure of the quality. Hersee productions have stood the test of time for three quarters of a century and they will so continue to do in the years to come.

Even the smallest piece must meet their rigid standard of factory quality or it does not go on- sale. Owners of summer homes that are equipped with Hersee furniture are certain of satisfactory wear because the maker guarantees each individual piece, By all means let whatever you buy be light yet strong. of the maker' -and save. Factory, 303 Ellicott Street. Branch Store, 662 Main Street.

200 members, the Western Division of the International Sunshine Society with its 400 members. the City Federation, has held three meetings here, and the District Nursing Association reception for the -day workers. "The Political Equality Club. the Mothers' Club and the Association still the continue their monthly meetings, and Gounod Choral Club meets weekly for practice. "We predict that it the Elmwood extension is ever completed it will bring our building in closer touch with the up-town people, who now complain of the inconvenience of our location, and more organizations may come to us.

Among the smaller meetings which will not be noted in any of the reports were the eighth district meeting of the State Federation, the Round Table meeting of the Western New York Federation, and three open meetings of the members for the consideration of union plans. hall rentals have fallen off considerably because of the new smaller halls which have been built in other parts of the city, but we have supplemented this loss by renting other unoccupied rooms in: the building as studios or offices and to transients who wished a quiet place to stay while in the city. "Looking at the future next year promises better results than last. Monthly rentals will be received for the hall and other rooms seldom occupied. Before, during the summer, the expenses of the Noon Rest have been curtailed and the handiwork department promises a paying investment in its new venture.

"The work before us of opening a free kindergarten in the Polish district shows that the small end of the wedge has been inserted for the out of a greater work for the union. "In closing, I thank every one who has been faithful, and loyal and true to their work and to me. What little I have accomplished has been mada possible only by the willing and loyal support of those about me, but it is through their service; coupled with united effort, that success will come." The president's address was followed by the reports of the various officers: Mrs. Edward William Butt, recording secretary, reading her own and the report of the corresponding secretary, Mrs. Charles E.

Selkirk; Mrs. Walter S. Jenkins reported the receipts in the general fund $8532.09 and the disbursem*nts $8195.85 and the balance $336.24. The balance in the permanent fund is $9969.44 and in the Cora Bullymore Fund, which is used for the kitchen garden work, $3000. Mrs.

W. F. Small wood gave the report of the finance committee. Mrs. Anselm J.

Smith reported the many entertainments arranged by her committee and a report was made of the noon rest by its chairman, Mrs. Frank B. Hower, stating that 8384 patrons have been served during the year. Mrs. Truman C.

White, chairman of the committee, announced a membership of 983, including 187 life and 796 associate and sustaining members. Mrs. Edward Gaskin gave a brief report of the civics committee, Mrs. Walter C. Nicholls of the protective committee.

Mrs. -H. E. McClure reported the work of the library committee. Mrs.

John E. Andrews gave a fine account of the social features of the union and Mrs. B. Alice Arnold gave the report of the publicity committee, of which she has been the efficient head the past year. Mrs.

Henry Wertimer, chairman of the educational committee, gave a splendid report of the educational features of the union and Mrs. John McGregor reviewed the success of the enterprise, which put out a Union periodical the past year-The Lantern. The two most important departments of the union, the domestic science department and the exchange, were Mrs. reviewed by their chairmen, Leonard B. Dodge and Mrs.

Walter W. Steele. Mrs. Dodge made a splendid ment report and of to demonstrate what has the domestic science departbeen done there this year a fine display suits. coats and evening gowns were of bonnets, hats.

The kitchen garden, under the supervision of Mrs. Cornelia Marcy Green and Miss Weisner, had also a fine exhibition of its class work. Miss Dodge told of the proposed summer work in the Polish neighborhood.

Mrs. Steele in her report of the exchange showed she had accomplished far more In one year than has been heretofore accomplished in many. The returns have been satisfactory, although restricted, she said, by the whatever this 1s-that has done so much to hold things back at the union. Mrs. Steele is to have an opportunity of trying one of her in an uptown.

where her beautiful art and utility goods may be displayed. The Election. The annual election of 12 directors was held in connection with the presen-tation of the annual report, the polls being open from 10 o'clock in the morning to 6 in the afternoon--the inspectors being Mrs. Amelia D. Loebrick, chairman; Mrs.

Irving Devereaux, Mrs. Henry Altman, Mrs. Franklin J. Barrows, Mrs. L.

M. Kenyon and Mrs. Charles H. Stolzenbach. There were only 12 names presented, the result of a cultivated thought among those having the matter in hand that women are not willing to take the chances of defeat on this board, hence for two years the nominating committee has instituted Itself an election committee and hence the casting of the vote by members is merely a matter of form.

There is much objection to this form of ballot-which will in time regulate Itself. The result of the election announced the following women as directors: Mrs. John E. Andrews, Mrs. B.

Alice Arnold, Mrs. Marcus G. Benjamin, Mrs. E. C.
