TAKES OPPOSITE VIEW
One Who Thinks Church Music Not
 An Essential.

To the Editor oe The Republican, >rr: Your correspondent has read with considerable interest the views of some of the clergymen of Phoenix on the subject of the importance of having good music in the churches. one gentle men going so far as to state that the music is of as much importance as the sermon. It is stated that if t Were not for the music the attendance at church services would be cor siderably less than it is now. In other words, we take it. that the attendance of people who do not make it a point to attend church regularly would be considerably less. We do not apprehend that the ar gument will be advanced that the at tendance of church members would be any less on account of having a less elaborate musical programme.
 The interviews published in your columns have been from clergymen~ the pew has been silent. Let us look at the case from the point of view of the pew. A good many of those who sit in the pewS attended Sunday school when young and have children now fol- lowing in their footsteps. It is pleas ure ito the older persons to attend Sunday school and the clergymen, on the other hand, are disappointed iG the young children do not attend church services. One proposition is certainly as fair as another. Can a person, how ever. attend both services? The SuD- day school is an hour in length and is followed. after an intermissiOn ranging from five to twenty minutes, as the cus~ tom may be, by the church service proper. The latter, where there is an elaborate lnusics programme, is very often an hour and a half in length, and even then the sermon is cut down to q very moderate length. The total time consumed in both services is very close 10 two and three-qudrters hours. Is il a wonder sometimes that the childrer do not like to go to church and the elders arrive at the conclusion that ona service in the morning or for the day is sufficient?
 There are other features connected with this subject that do not need to be touched upon here. They may be bare ly mentioned, however. in the form of interrogatOries. somewhat as follows: Is it really true that church attendance would diminish if the music were cut down so as to give a preaching service of one hour in length? Is the music of as much real importance as the ser mon? Does it pay to cater to the float ing public when thereby the attendance of church members and workers is dis couraged? etc. Furthermore, let it be understood that this communication is written without malice and only for the purpose of discussing the question.
 Respectfully.

is devoted to the department. must be taken after his regular work is done.
 "The office has been a source of pleasure to me-" said Mir. Fromm, but man shouldn't attempt to do more than he is able to do. and that's the position I've been in
 Friends of the fire department are loath to lose MT. Fromm and are cir culating a petition to be presented to the city council to attach a salary to the fire chiefs position. They state that the city is large enough now to support full paid department and if the council will not create the place, they will ask that the work of chief and the superintendent of the streets be combined, one man to attend to both and draw such a salary as may be fixed by the council.
 A new and better alarm system is another fire department matter which is before. the council. On his recent trip to San Francisco Chief romm in vestigated the system used there and has recommended that a similar sys- tenn be instituted here. The alarm plant now in use in Phoenix is the Gamewell and has been in Use for four years. Advocates of the proposed new system state that it is much better adapted to the requirements of Phoe- nix and that-for $22OO a system can be had which will be sufficient for use here until the city reaches a size of 30, 900.

PLAYED GOOD BALL
DeMund Team Defeats the Tempe
 Crimson Rims.

Flushed with the defeat of the True 10 Phoenix Sunday with the Gvowed in tention of fguratively wiping up the earth, at the ball park, with the De- MUnd team. Thay were sadly and badly disappointed and at no stage in the game were the Tempe men given any hope that they could solve the diff ficult problem presented by the D. Munds A cmall. but enthusiastic Cl Owd saw the Crimson Rims defeated by a score of 10-2. and literally ap- plauded the really surprising work of the Phoenix team. It has been said frequently that there were too many attempts at s;ar playing and lack of tam work in the DeMrnd nine, but yesterdays game was d flat refCTation of this theory and the manner in which they played together and the total ab- sencs of that common fault in ball teams, individual playing. was most noticeable. Indeed, such a good ar ticlc of base ball was set forth that the fans can sec no reason why the De- Mund men should not be able u play winning ball with the Los Angeles team n the s,ries to be played here next week.
 Collins, the DeMund pitcher was in- vincible, only allowing two safe hits to be made from his delivery. Long, catcher, played an errorless game, as did also all the players in tho outfeld, and the Improvement in batting was so grea: as to be worth special men, ton.
 Iempe was sadly lacking in battery work and to that their shortage in team work were due many of the runs made by the DeMunds.
 The DeMunds and the Indian school team will play the first of a series of three games on Saturday next. Sun- cay they play the Crimson Rims" and Tempe, wh@h will be the last game until they cross bats with the Los An geleS team.

SCHOOLS OPEN TODAY
City Pupils to Lose No Time Getting
 Into Action.

From o'clock this morning. until some time in June the larger part of young America will hope for the com ing of the time when he can throw his books into the corner and get GU. into the open, free from the arduous asks incidental to the wearisome | hours spent for five days each week in school. It is right and good for the theorists to de- clare that the average boy is happy when the time comes for him to re- sume th7 school work, but his averaga lad is the exception rather than the rule and i, is indeed an extraordinary youth who will begin his labGrs this morning in joyful mood
 Happily. though, the school boy is an evolutionist and as he acquires the added wisdom of years he is swung into a. belief that his younger ideas We're in the wrong and he comes into the knowledge that his you thful days spent with mathematics. grammar spelling, etc. were not wasted.
 There are no features of unusual in terest 10 mark the opening of school this fall. A. the teachers will be in thelr places at o'clock and the en- rollment will begin. Usually the first clay las not been devoted to work on the part of the pupils and heretofore they hS"e been dismissed after re- ceiving instruction as t7 the course of study to be followed cut. Superintend- eni Creager said last night that the studies would begin this morning, however. and thus no time will be lost in settling down to hard work No gr at changes have been made at any of the schools. a few minor improve ments especially at the Central build ing. being the only work done during the vacation.

HOW ABOUT THE CARNIVAL?
Movement On Foot For a Festival
 This Winter.

To give or not to give carnival is the question that should De agitating the Phoenix public mind. Under the belief that a repetition of the winter fete would be of very great benefit to the city and to the Salt River valley, members of the board of trade will at once begin the agitation for the festi- val. The last carnival brought many thousands of people who left many titusand dollars. a much larger amount than the outlIy for the fete, and advertised Phoenix as nothing else has done in years. The social feature, too. was of great moment and In it. self was sufficient to repay the cost of the carnival. All in all, it seems req sonable to the gentlemen who are seeking to promote the fete, that there should be no opposition to their efforts.
 It is likely that this winter will sed a larger number of visitors to the city than ever before and if a flrst-class fes- tival can be given during. the winter they will spread it's fame through the country in a manner that will be of incalculable worth to this city.
 Another matter which makes it de- srable that a carnival be given is the fact that rate may be secured which will induce mny people to come from Colorado to Phoenix. As has been noted previously, MT. S. P. Clark, rep resenting the local board of trade, has been in Denver, engaged In an effort to arrange a plan whereby an inter- change of tourists can be effected be- tween Phoenix and Denver, securing rates such as will induce winter resi- dents of Phoenix to go to the Colorado metropolis In the summer and, vice versa, scheme which would help both Arizona and Colorado, to the det- riment of California. There has been some difficulty experienced in securing the cooperation of some of the rail- roads in the plan, but MT. Clark said last night that he had receiVed a letter from the Santa Fe general ticket and passenger office stating that a rate would be made If Phoenix would pro- vide a drawing card of sufficient strength to attract a large enough number to make the reduction profit able.

THE FLoUR-MAKING INDUSTRY

Minneapolis. Minn., Sept. 9-The great flour mills of Minneapolis whose year ended last night, have eclipsed all the previous performances in the history of the industry that has made the city famous. There is no doubt that IA 500. COG barrels of flour have been manu- factured. It is entirely probable that the amount will be higher than that. The mills required between 62,OOO, 900 and 65,000.O0O bushels of wheat during the past year.

THE new spring fashions
in footwear are arriving
daily, and the selling
has begun in earnest. We
must admit that the new
styles are handsomer than
ever. The variety of exclu-
sive effects is much larger be-
cause of the increased space
for their showing. But every
style is exclusively different
from any shown elsewhere,
and this is because we control
the output in Washington of
a dozen or more makers
whose creations are sold only
by two or perhaps three of
the leading New York shoe
shops.
