SCHOOL SONGS
EVANGELlSTlC HYMNS UNFIT,
DECLARES DIVINE
Children Should Have an Atmosphere
. of Joyous Devotion, Says Chicago
Preacher in Addressing
Institute
BY Associated Press.

CHICAGO, March 21. - That the
hymns commonly used in protestant
Sunday schools are trivial, grotesque
and frequently dangerous, is the opinion
of Rev. William P. Merrill, pastor of
the Sixth Presbyterian church, ex-
pressed in an address at the Preshy-
terrain Sunday school institute held at
Second Presbyterian church. DR.. Mer-
rll spoke on Music in the Sunday
School"
"The trouble with our church and
Sunday school music" he said, "is that
it is looked upon as a hunter considers
the meat which he puts into his trap.
We don't have any thought for nour-
ishing the victim after we have got him
in the trap.
"In these days of evolution when we
are in doubt as to whether we should
call God He or IT. we are coming TO
think it childish to feel that God wants
the worship of his children, but the at
titude of devotion is what we need.
Songs concerned with the sorrow
and pain of this life, the longing for
the heavenly home and the like are
dangerous, are grotesque in Sunday
school, if indeed they have a place
anywhere.
"Doggerel and other trash should be
ruled out of the Sunday school, and
rag time music should be strictly
barred.
"Evangelistic hymns are absolutely
unfit for the use of children in Sun
day school, The children should have
an atmosphere of joyous devotion. We
need sorely to arrange our Sunday
school music in accord with the Sa-
viour's warning against causing the
little ones to stumble"

CANTALOUPE CARNIVAL NEXT
Coachella Is Preparing for Big CeIe-

Changes
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
COACHELLA, March 11.-"Coachella
Cantaloupe carnival day." to be held at
the close of the melon season, has been
proposed as fitting way to celebrate
the event. The enormous achieve
ments of this big industry have earned
for the desert ranchers the right to
keep abreast of the times by holding
carnival on one day of the year as
a suitable termination of the year 5
toll and as a day of pleasure for all
concerned. The united celebrations held
on Thanksgiving day and on Christmas
day of 1905, held at Thermal and at
COachella respectively, given in a uni
que and enjoyable way, show what the
capable people of the valley can do.
At the last meeting of the Thermal
Cantaloupe Growers union, the resg-
nation of H. NJ. Prouty, president and
member of the board of directors, was
accepted. p. NJ. Gill was elected as
president and Jay A. Gordon as di-
rector. The association is said to con-
troll the 500 acres in the district now
set to cantaloupes, and this season will
enter into no contracts for shipping the
coming crop, either east or to coast
points. The seventy-siX members have
been satisfactorily reimbursed for all
outstanding debts and the financial con-
GitiOn of the union, as shown by the
secretary's report. is in excellent con-
Gition. The board has arranged for
improvements in icing facilities and a
new shed shade for the protection OF
the melons.
Surveyors are running lines for the
water pipes that the new toWnsite COM
pany will lay in Coachella and vicinity.
The work of laying the $4,000 feet of
pipe will be under the direction Of
j. H. Hamilton ThurstOn of Los An
geles, one of the members of the new
company.
The much needed waiting room for
passengers at the Southern Pacific sta
tion has been constructed. A gang of
railroad carpenters began the building
last week. 1t is an addition to the
old depot and will make the building
twice it's former size.
Walter j. Brown has recently made
thirty mining locations in the Eagle
mountain district.
n. B. Norfolk of Los Angeles has ar
rived to fill the position of engineer
of the town companys water plant.
Accompanied by his family, Mr. Nor
folk made the trip in an automobile.
They had no difficulty until reaching

returned the machine by the train. This
act they regretted upon learning of
the excellent condition of the roads in

SAN PEDRO. March 21.-Quite a sem
sation was sprung before the city coun-
ell last night when George II. Peck,
one of the members and the largest
property holder in the city, stated that
if the electric lines running into the
city did not change their stopping
places, where passengers are dumped
from Los Angeles and other out of
town places inside of a week that he
should offer a resolution to have the
saloons closed on Sunday after 1 o'clock

members signitied their intention Of
voting for the resolution.
Mr.. Peck also made the statement
that if the city Jail, a small building
located on his land, was not moved
inside of a month that he should have
it taken down. Whereupon an order
was made that a new city Jail should
be at once erected on land belonging
to the city. AS the building is used
jointly for both county and city pris-
oners but belongs to the county, it is
not known what the county will do.
Mr. Peck has tried for months to get
