PROMINENT CLUB MOVES
TOWARD EQUAL SUFFRAGE

Resolved, that we favor the sub
mission to the qualified voters of the
state of a constitutional amendment
providing for the extension of suffrage
this club would pass suchc a resolution.
passed yesterday morning by the mem
bers of the Friday Morning club.
1t had been greatly doubted whether
this club would pass such resolution
as it has been always considered as
very conservative. and although nearly
every one of the other clubs has
passed the same resolution the action
will come as a surprise to many
Great encouragement Will be given to
the cause of equal suffrage by this
move of the largest and one of the
strongest clubs in Los Angeles. Mrs,
Shelley Tolhurst, a former president of
the club and an eloquent speaker,
gave the address on the subject and
she spoke so we'll that the motion at
the end of her speech was carried with
only three nays.
Mrs. S. S. S. Frackelton gave the
club a delightful morning, telling them
of her work in pottery and American
ceramics, and molding, as she spoke

WORK
FOR INSPECTORS
STREETS WILL BE WATCHED
SYSTEMATICALLY
Public Work Oversight In Each Ward
VIII BE Arranged and Respon-
slbllity win Be Fixed
Hereafter

For better inspection Of the streets
the board Of public works yesterday
adopted a new scheme of districting the
city and making one Inspector respOn-
sble for given section.
The oversight will be divided as fol-
lows under the jurisdiction of ID. K.
Edwards, Inspector of public work:
Business center of the city-Inspector
Patrick Doyle.
Wards 1, and 9-1nspector quinn.
Ward 2 and all street sweeping-1n-
spector Moore.
Wards s, and 7--Inspector Werdln.
Wards 3 and 4--Inspector Kane.
Thse men will pay special attention
to excavations, to note when started
and completed and to see that the sur.
face of the street Is put back in it's
original condition. Most of the uneven
surfaces and ruts are due to the inn
proper restoration of streets due to the
work of plumbers, sewer, gas, wire,
conduit and construction gangs.
I'm the past the inspectors have lost
much time by being unsystematic in
their work." said Inspector Edwards
yesterday. "One man would look after
q sewer in Boyle Heights, for instance,
then jump over to East Los Angeles,
then maybe near Ascot park. Another
inspector would pass him perhaps on a
car looking after some street work.
Now we assign n given district to
one man and he looks after all kinds of
public work, saves time in travelling,
keeps closer watch on the work and
saves the city and the taxpayers money
by so doing, and we know where to lay
the blame when there are kicks"
The new rule went into force with
the beginning of the month yesterday.

MUSIC AND DRAMA
English vioIinist Gets Ovation

Amid veritable rain of violets Miss
Otie Chew last night received such an
ovation at Simpsons auditorium as
falls to the lot of but few musicians.
Several hundred of the little English
violinists friends turned out to hear
her, and each one seemed brimming
with enthusiasm. Among this number
was a large delegation from the wo-
mems orchestra, and several well
known violinists of the city
The audience beheld a fluffy head
that lay lovingly on the violin, and a
face that possessed personal charms of
drawing power.
1t was a particularly heavy program
the young Violinist had chosen for her
SELF and one calculated to test the
abilities of a master Her superb bow
ing and her clear cut high notes, as
well as a perfect command of the tech
nique of the instrument showed that
II was not in the least beyond her.
In the Dvorak "Romanze" her playing
was positively brilliant. Sjogren's
heavy "Sonata for violin and piano,
op. 24' was particularly severe test
of her power, but she came through
with flying colors
The rest of the program consisted
of Beethoven sonata for violin and
piano, op. Al, in three movements; c.
Sniding's one movement, Concerto for
violin, A Major" op. As; Frederick
Stevenson's "Air Pathetique;" Ave
Marie" by Schubert-Wilhelmj, and
Saint-Saens' "Caprice Andalouse," said
to have been produced for the first
time in America last night.
At the close of one of the numbers
the ushers brought to the musician
great armfuls of flowers in bouquets
and baskets. AS she stopped to re-
ceive them a shower of violets thrown
from the balcony fell upon her and
covered the stage.
Miss Chew was accompanied by Peje
Storck.

Chorus Makes Hit

The eight girls of the Fischer chorus,
good or fair at all times, seem to be
making a particularly big hit this week
in "a Legal Jag" Every chorus has
been encored two or three times each
night, but as the week draws to a
close even three repetitions do not seem
to satisfy the audience. Last night in
the moonlight scene, Miss Bessie Jar
diniere, a member of the chorus who
took the leading lady's place. owing to
the latter's illness, was recalled four
times to sing 1.-THE Moons Got His
Eyes on You" The chorus, dressed
as elves. made a beautiful picture in
the moonlight, and each succeeding
time sang and danced their part better.

A Story Of Comfort.
CHAPTER Nv.

Ycu have owed that old friend OF
yours a letter for more weeks than you
like to remember. Finally, you have
decided to write the long overdue let
ter you get out your stationary, and
let your ideas begin to form.
You begin to write, or rather you
fain would begin to write, but, alas
that old fountain %pen-none too good
to begin With, and long past its best
days, goes scratch, scratch, over the
paper, and splutters over everything
in sight.
You put the pen down gently,-or il
you happen to be a man, gentle reader,
you put it down, but not gently, and
relieve your mind of quite a variety Of
"Sunday school words"
Dear friends, don't neglect your cor
respondents, or ~jeopardize your i'm
mortal souls by trying to write with 6
worn out old pen made on ANTICIPATED
patterns, but get "Sterling Fountain
Pen" and know what solid comfort
is.
To be continued.
