We’ll ft the music first, while we hare the .money.” Since he was discussing the homemaking problems of newly-married couples Mr. Crane considered a piano too •expensive, be said, so be suggested a priced talking machine. The next important thing, he SRid. is a picture, “not necessarily n costly painting, but at least an artistic reproduction.” At this point, the lecturer introduced a • beautiful painting in harmony with the color scheme of its other furnishings, and observed that while his proposal might 'seem extravagant, the spiritual side of home-making should not be overlooked. Next Mr. Crane took up the matter of rugs, draperies and other items and when the room was furnished complete—with good furnishings, ha pointed out—the ‘total cost was about S6OO. Miss Evelyn D. Hansen’s first demon•tration in the art of dress last night proved an entertaining and instructive feature.
