Because OF the manifold ways In which the
ironworker has made modern life more rapid.
more strong and more vast and. most OF all. be-
cause America has now outstripped all other
nations in the product of this craft. the people
of this country will take peculiar interest in
the monument soon to be erected In honor of the
pioneers of this industry. After delay of sew
eral years a design for memorial has at last
been chosen. and 1t is expected that within a few
months the money for fits construction will have
been raised. 1t will stand In Taunton. Mass
The monument win be called the Leonard me-
morial for It is not only to commemorate the
beginnings OF the iron industry in this country,
but also to emphasize the devotion to Il from
generation to generation of the Leonard family
1t was In Taunton that two members OF this
family established the first successful iron works
in the New World. Most OF the money for the
monument IS being contributed by the present
members OF the family. four hundred of whom
now engaged In the business in various parts
Of the country.
Although earlier iron works than those OF
Taunton were established elsewhere. none at

This work Of improvement in the
city is to be done under a resolution
recently passed by council calling up
on the property owners to repair thei,
sidewalks Immediately. II the pro
perty owners refuse to abide by the
resolution the city authorities will en-
force the law and then make the own
ers pay for the work.
AS a matter Of fact, nearly every
side walk in the city needs repairs
and in majority Of cases the owners
have decided to erect new sidewalks
laltogether and use the petrihed brick
which will last much longer and make
a better looking walk.

OTHER PROPOSED CHANGES
Process of Substituting Male Singers
For Women in all of the choirs
viii Necessarily be Very
Slow.

Regarding the proposed change in
catholic churches-one of them being
the debarring of women from the
choirs-The Savannah Morning News
publishes the Following, which will!
be Of interest to Brunswick Catholics:
Figured music, too, will be aban
doned and nothing but the plain chant
OF Gregorian music, as it is properly
known, will be allowed in the churches
during the celebration of the mass. OF
during benediction and vespers. This
means practically revolution in the
church music, barring nearly all the
crest masterpieces of the last hall
century.
The magnificent Twelfth Mass Oh
Messe Solonelle will all be abandoned
one OF the most famous of all musical
compositions. Bach Festival Mass
Bcethoyen's Mass in C, Mounod's
Me3se Solonelle win al be abandoned
IN course of time. and in their places
will he heard only the chanting of the
male voices and the boy choirs. Much
OF the music has entranced the large
congregations in the different Cathe.
drals on Easter Sundays. and other
occasions viii have to be dropped
hereafter
Rev. Father Kennedy, rector Of the
Cathedral of st. John the Baptist
ldoes not believe that the women will
be debarred at once from Savannah
chcers. The action of Bishop NC
Donnel of Brooklyn in putting the
wishes of the Pore into immediate eff
feet concerns only the Brooklyn dio
cese. Until some further word than
! the Motu Pr0prio" has been received
the question win rest with the indi-
yidual bishops.
The process of making the change
said Rev. Father Kennedy, is bound
TO be a slow one as we must train our
boy ohoirs and the male singers. In
the cities very creditable choirs can
be secured with Comparatively little
ldifilculty, but in the small parishes.
in little towns, the new arrangement
will be an exceedingly hard one with
which to conform. In such PLACES all
music is largely dependent on the lady
singers.
4 suppose that the figured or pro
fame music has been carried to ex
Itremes in Rome. and other old world
countries and that it was rapidly ap.
proaching the operate style. In order
to avoid ali this. and to keep all the
services in strict conformity to the
rurics Of the church the Holy Father
has taken this ground.
"As yet l believe, the latter rests
with the bishops of the separate dio
lceses, and they may take what action
they wish on the matter Bishop Nc
Donnel has seen fit to put the rule
into effect at once. No especial ac
ton has yet been decided ON for this

Brunswick may yet witness profes
sional baseball this season.
A new league is being organized in
south Georgia, and from reports is
already well under way and will open
the season at the same time that the
big leagueo begin playing ball.
In Sundays Savannah News, in an
article on the interest of baseball in
this section, we clip the following:
baseball interest throughout the
south has never been so intenre as has
already been manifested in the game
this eany in the season, and all over
Dixie preparations are being made for
the teams, both independent, and in
the two leagues which are represented
in this immediate section,
There is, perhaps, no more enthu
iastic baseball section In the country
than is to be found throughout Georgia
The establishment of the South At.
lantic League covers a territory that
for the last few year. has been de-
priyed OF professional ball and inter
est in the game has Jagged to more or

now proposed to enter the circuit arc

THE season in the smaller towns
will open some weeks earlier this sea

Iparations that are being made by the
leagues. In the South Atlantic the
season will open on April 26, Memo

will probably be ready on the field to
commence contests even that early

toned in the Savannah papers, but
liz such league is being organized as
is referred to in the article, Brunswick
would most certainly be invited tc
come in, as this IS one of the best
ball towns in the state for its size, and
then it is near all the cities that are
mentioned
The baseball outlook was much dis
cussed by enthusiasts yesterday and
they all were greatly in favor Of or
ganizing such a league, and it is be
llieyed that there are men in Bruins
wick who would be willing to form an
association and put up money to OBJ.

could get a team that woald keep well

If such league is organized Bruins
wick would be the largest city in Il
and naturally would be expected tc
have good team. We have seyeral
here at pre ent, who with enough prat
tice could make good in fast com
Ipany.
Local fans will take up the matter
and if meeting Is held this city will
in all probability be represented.
