advice is Choose your vocation, 50
that as far as possible the earnings
as we'll as the spending hours shall be
eontented ones
Be slow about the choosing. Try and
you have chosen that, within the range
of possibility, you are doing the work
YOU like the best.
Let your own fitness for the work
be the ll-important factor in your
choice. If you would rather do house
work than work in a factory or office,
by all means wash dishes. Do not al
low any foolish feeling that people
consider houseWork degrading to drive
you to uncongenial work.
Next to love, the joy of work is the
greatest thing in life. I have found
that the two things that give me the
most satisfying happiness are converse
with a congenial friend and the joy
of doing good work. No material pos
sessions have ever been able to bring
me as much pleasure.
1t doesn't pay in the end to let the
dollars dazzle. Best remember when
you covet them and would sacrifice
your tastes and abilities to win them
that you must be at the disagreeable
business Of earning them four fifths
Of the day and will have but one weary
dfth in which to enjoy them.
Work for the works sake, paint or
sing or carve
The thing thou lowest though the Body
starve.
Who works for glory misses oft the
goal.
Who works for money coins his very
SOUL
Work for the works sake, then, and
it may be
That these things shall be added unto
thee.

NO UNIFORMS FOR
THE CONCERT BAND
Six Hundred Dollars Badly Needed to
Enable Band Boys to Make
Good Appearance.

With one of the best musical or
CARNATIONS in the northwest, and with
every open-air concert attended by
thousands of interested muSic-lovers,
the members of the Walla Walla Con-
cert band are forced to appear in pub
lie without uniforms, the old ones
having been discarded after having
done duty for many an important oc-
casion. There are 33 musicians in the
band at the present time, and with
such an organization, the boys feel
kindly the absence of the necessary
garments to give the proper appear
ance.
ut will take approximately $500 to
furnish the boys with uniforms" said
Manager Edgar L. Smith this morn
ing. TT seems almost an injustice to
expect the players to supply their own
when they are playing in
these public, concerts for no remuner-
alton other than money with which to
pay for the music, and this goes into
the treasury of the organization.
Unless the citizens manifest a
greater degree of interest in the well
fare of the band, it will be up to the
players to secure their individual uni
forms. Money is also needed for the
erection in the city park Of the $4,000
band stand, for which the park COM
mission has planned. Some of the
funds secured by the ladies of the
Park club will be used for this purpose
and believe the work will be started
this season, although there is not
much money in sight for financing it.
MANY of the people of the city,"
continued Mr.. Smith, "do not recog
Eize the Importance to a city of a good
band and of a proper appearance Of
the same. Outside of the reputation
and advertising Walla Walla has Sc
cured through the work of the Concert
band, we have been instrumental DUR
ing the past year, in bringing here
some IL or Is families, all of them be-
coming permanent residents. Nearly
all of the players are now married
men, and this insures the permanency
OF the organization, as they are
az erse to leaving place Where they
can secure musical employment in adj
dition to their regular work. But we
would like to see people take more in
terest in the welfare of the band" :"

that England, France and
all of Venezuela's neighbors, European

HONORING HIS SERVICE.

Flags hung at half mast throughout
New York city today. City officials,
prominent citizens, delegations of po-
lice and a vast array of Italian So
cieties walked in a solemn funeral
procession. The funeral was that of
Joseph Pe.rosino, lieutenant of de-
tectives in the New York police. He
was assassinated by members Of the
Black Hand at Palermo, Sicily, March
-. Four thousand New York police
men, city officials, tens of thousands
of citizens and all the Italian societies
joined in doing honor to the dead de-
tective. 1t was an occasion that will
attract interest throughout the coun-
try and will be the subject of notice
throughout the civilized world.
Though the occasion was a tribute
TO the notable achievements of the
dead detective. there is an incidental
accompaniment Of protest against the
influences that laid him low. He came
to his death while on a secret mission
that it was hoped would free his
adopted country Of the deviltry known
as the Black Hand. More than any
other man in the country Lieutenant
PetroSino battled against these des-
peradoes. His Italian birth and
singular talent for remembering faces
and penetrating DISCUSSES, made him
dreaded by them. He had brought
many to justice, and at the time of his
assassination was in pursuit of a gang
that had been compelled to flee from
the United States.

effect arrangements between the
United States and Italian authorities
for CO. operation in eliminating Black
Hand outrages and the vandals who
perpetrate them
The problem is one that has given
the police authorities Of both coun-
tries infinite concern. A co-Opera-
tive system of espionage and infor-
nation was planned as an aid to the
solution. When forced to flee from
Italy it is the habit of the criminals
pacities on board American-bound
steamers. BY that means they gain
entrance here and remain until their
crimes again compel them to fee
abroad. Again they ship as stokers
or otherwise, and their absence again
serves the purpose of these birds of
passage in escaping justice. His in
innate knowledge of their devious
ways and his dauntless courage in
pursuing them caused Lieutenant
Petrosino TO be marked for death.
Fate fell on him at Palermo when
he was close on the heels OF gang
that had hut racentlv fed from New
York. It lost to this country one of
it's ablest and bravest detectives, one
whose fearless battle with the Black
Hand is the admiration of brave men
the world over. The demonstration
in his honor is a just tribute to his
achievements and is shared in alike
by the people of his adopted and Of
his native country.
