ward reform, it will doubtless brins
ABOUT good results. The suggestion OF
big free or cheap Sunday entertain>
ment at the Auditorium is a good one
and has been discussed before. Many

Audltorlum pipe organ is so seldom
heard by the public and it has FREE

concerts on Sundays would prove u
popular as well as educational attrac-

thanks of many grateful people,

federation will discuss tomorrow there
Will be brief memorial service for the
late Mrs. John Sargent of the West
Side Reading club, music and a lecture
on Carlisle by Mr.. John Macdonald
