moisture. The acreage in both rye and
barley is in excess Of last year. while

MUSIC AND
THE DRAMA
oratorio "EllJah"

"f1lijah," the second oratorb given
this season by the Los Angeles choral
society, under the direction OF Julius
Albert jain, was heard by a good
sized audience last evening. Simpson
auditorium was gay with light-holored
gowns, and It was evident that the
performance Of Mendelssohn's great
work was welcomed as a Lenten social
event. 1t proved to be noteworthy in
a musical way, even though the season
has been crowded with concerto ora
torios and operas.
The Philomela Ladies' quartet the
Euterpean Male quartet and the ladies'
double quartet of the Church of the
Angels contributed much to the sue
cess of the performance. These uuar-
tets, made UP of voices of extraordi-
nary quality were admirably trained,
and the Angel music was exquisitely
sung by the young women of the dou-
BILE quartet.
There were times when the chorus
work was little rugged. and when
there appeared to b. slight uncer-
tainty but 1t was evident that Dlrec-
tor Jahns three months drill had been
faithful and scholarly. The results OBJ
tained were above thelaverage, and all
who heard last nights performance
appreciated the sincerity of the man
that held the baton.
Mrs. Catherine Collelte, to whom
was intrusted the soprano part made
a deep impression, for she realized the
best hopes of those who have enjoyed
her singing in the las year. Her
voice was exquisite in tn, purity of its
tone, and her phrasing was always
good. She sang with tie reverential
feeling. which made her Interpretation
most satisfactory. Miss Julia Heinrich
In the contralto part won frequent ap-
plause by the sweetness md richness
of her tones. She has tie charm Of
personality that wins an Audience; and,
although there is much Il be gained
in her conception of oraorio work,
she was most acceptble. Max
Heinrich was, as usual fivorite. He
was not in as good voice IS when he
sang in "1he Messiah" AMI he chose
to ignore some OF the traditions of
oratorio. Joseph Dupuy embodied
in his Interpretation of the tnor part.
the deeper meanings of the @mposers
music. He was acceptable, although
his is lyric tenor.

LrGISLhTlVn SCREENINGS

Governor Pardee deserves credit either for good per
sonal judgment for wisdom in hearkenins to the voice
OF public opinion This conclusion relates to his action
in killing mass of bad legislation some Of which was
execraby bad.
All of the grst from the legislative mill which the
governor had not acted prior to the passing OF
Wednesday at the midnight hour went to the dump.
Some grave fears allayed when Thursday morning
disclosed the fact that particularly vicious bills
had not been approved by the governor.
Two bills of especial viciousness in their bearing on
Los Angeles interests in the legislative debris.
one the scheme for blocking the operation of a
plan for municipal lighting service, and the other max
ing provision for the division Of the county Strange as
it may seem both measures fathered by legis-
ators representing this county-Repubcans, of course
The bill relative to municipal lighting was in the In
terest of the gas monopoly and the county division bill
said to have been the interest of the railway COM
panies The purpose of the former to prevent the
installation of municipal plant without the prior
chase by the city Of the present plant at price prac
tically be fixed by the monopoly. The county divi-
sion scheme claimed had for Its object the secession
of part of Los Angeles county facing the ocean, with
the port of San Pedro as the nucleus.
Among the measures approved by the governor near
the last moment is commendable in the line of the
good roads 1t provides for he formation Of
boulevard districts under consent of supervisors and by
petition hem and copcerning collection Of money for
construction Of boulevards."

ing and loan associations approved, providing for

good deal of bad legislation approved by the
governor from first to last but there comparatively
little for fautfndng with his work in the hurry
of closing it. It is satisfaction to know anyway, that
the outcome might have been much worse

A PUBLIC SCHOOL INNOVATION

feature of the bond election last Tuesday makes
provision for obvious necessity in the public school
system. The of $4,000 is provided for building
and the equipment of parental school, which is to be
the starting point in the effort to restrain public school
pupils who are inclined to be incorrigble.
At the present time there intermediate institution
between the common school and the Detention home.
Attendance at the latter is absolutely compulsory and
hence it borders closely penal character. 1t goes
step too far therefore, in the treatment of class of
pupils who merely show inclination to waywardness
requiring something than ordinary school dsci-
pline.
The parental school will fill the gap between the
school and the Detention home It's most impor-
tant function will be the arrest Of early waywardness
at the point Of truancy The average youngster may
show his her prediction amenabe to such restraint
the parental school will afford but he she may
not have reached the point where is desirable to
sort to the Detention home
There is doubt, The Herald has often pointed
out that ruancy the foundation of large part of the
vice and crime in Los Angeles. 1t is proved by state
prison statistics in fact that large percentage of
vics trace their criminal back to truancy
the first STEP If boys and girls be turned from that
first temptation and brought to realizing of their
danger the pathway of their lives may thereafter be
upward instead of downward
1t is hoped that along with the establishment of the
proposed school effective for rounding up
truants will be provided The fact that boys and girls
of school found iding in school hours, in many
parts of the city, is evidence of laxity in ruant super
vision. No man. of course, reasonably be ex-
pected to watch for all truants in city of nhab-
itans and covering of about fortyhve square
miles.
