Mr. Brouwer graduated from the Royal Conserva tory o f Music at. the Hague and Mrs. Brouwer is a graduate, o f Utrecht. The children, all o f whom are grown up now, were raised in an atmosphere Of music and at the time of the Great War .they were ordered to play fo r the soldier's in the iifferent camps along the Holland border. Their work attracted the attention o f Queen Wil- helmina, and Her Majesty was so in terested that she invited them to • give . their performance before the Royal family in the palace at the Hague, Following their appearance before the Royal family, they came tp the United States, where they have been extremely successful during the past few years. . During the entertainment, Mrs, Brouwer gives two very interesting and instructive talks abqut Holland. Several unique instruments are used, including, the Cathedral Chi pies, three sets o f Swiss handbells, and'the glass- ophone. Mr. Brouwer is considered an expert bell-man, having played the big bells in the tower at the Hague. For three months he played for radio station WSAI at* Cincinnati, and he has also'performed on famous Ameri can Chimes-in other cities where they have radio connections.

The appearance here soon o f the era will mark an Unusual event among entertainment lovers o f Cedarvillo, The Company consists o f a group of full-blpoded Hopi Indian dancers, from their cliff and pueblo dwellings, located 175 miles northeast of Phoe nix in thej state o f Arizoni, This is the only group of Hopi Dancers to leave the reservation since the treaty with the government in 1863. In this group* we have five of the most important clans o f the Hopi represented, fo r they are the ones se lected to. go to Washington with Edith Sterling Billingsley, interpreter, to make the plea before the United States Congress! to retain their an cient ceremonies as handed down through the centuries and in which there is no trace o f present day civ ilization, for Congress had been peti tioned to prohibit them. No white man or Indian has ever witnessed these strange ceremonies of the-Hopi, unless they have been a member of the secret Snake Clan o f the Hopi. A ll these and more is revealed in the program given by this group. Indian Play Is Given M„ W. Billingsley, the custodian of these, Hopi, selected an ancient Hopi legend and constructed a genuine Hopi playlet, taking great care to avoid directing these Hopi in the ideas o f white man's stage technique, per mitting the Hopi to re-enact their an cient legend as handed dpwn through the centuries. This is the first time such a spectacle has ever been pre sented to present-day civilization. The Hopi •have a natural sense o f humor as evinced in the many comedy situa tions during the.action o f this Hopi legend, -The most elaborate industrial ex hibit o f this little known tribe is car ried with their attraction. Aside from being the largest collection of museum pieces, some among them many hundreds o f year's old, the Hopi before your eyes weave their blankets upon hand looms, exhibit their basket Work, bead work, silversmith's work, pottery, etc. In short, as the Hopi are the only North American Indians who still live in the primitive and are entirely different from all other tribes, this highly entertaining pro- grant under the personal direction of Edith Sorting Billingsley, herself from the Hopi. country, is a revela tion, * . * Many Costume Changes DIVORCE SOUGHT Suit for divorce, on grounds o f wij- I ful absence from home fro more than three years, has been fifed in Common Pleas Court by Clarence Tracy against Marie Tracy.

Only a feeble spark of life is there which' can again be coaxed into flame when conditions be come favorable, but to all appear ances, the cocoon is as lifeless as the deserted cottages o f a summer resort, with -their shuttered windows and locked doors. For many species o f insects, this seasonal change is more serious and can only mean death. The egg clusters have been deposited and the old generation now makes way for the new, Parental care, which is common among birds and mammals, is not characteristic o f the insect life, except insofar as the parent deposits the eggs in or on a supply o f the necessary food substance. In this regard the insect exhibits a remark able instinct, whether the needed food be plant or animal, and thus the new- hatched generation awakes to activity in a world o f plenty,.
