State band played with excellent spirit.
The musical conception was good, the
shading particularly so. but exception
must be taken to inaccuracies In the
wood, wind and also in the brass In
struments, both In intonation and clear
execution. This was probably due. in
a measure. to imperfect Instruments
The general effect was pleasing and
good.
.'The second band, the *. Of P. had
the advantage of n fuller complement
OF Instruments, which permitted
closer adherence to the effects intended
In the score The Instruments of this
band are also of better quality. result

tnnation. The balance of parts was ex-
cellent and the shading 1udicious aod
effective. The wind Instruments were
In excellent tune. and were played with
accuracy and precision. This was gem
eralIy true OF all the Instruments, but
occasionally there were lapses from
good intonatIon in the horns. The con-
ceptIon of the dances was of high
musical order, the temDos good and the

the unanimous opinion of your adjudi-
Gators that the first prize be awarded

n TO year ever ended In Salt Lake
with musical affairs at a low
er cbb than the present one.
Nearly every musical enterprise
that has been presented within the
last eighteen months has resulted In
n financial loss and this includes the
Salt Lake Opera company. the Salt
Lake Choral society, the Orpheus
club. the Salt Lake Symphony orches-
ira, and the latest venture of all THE
Salt Lakcrs.'
Music In Salt Lake seems to have
settled down to the condition that
there Is a burning desire for every
thing in the artistic line, provided
only that it Is furnished free of cost.
1t Is to be noted. however. that such
of our organizations as the SAT- Lake
Choral society, the Symphony Orches-
ira and the OrPhcus club do not pro-
pose to be downed by the discouraglng
results of the past year. but that they
are trimming their slils to meet actual
conditions, and going ahead on sater
and more economical lines being de-
termined that the divine spark shall
not be cXtinguiShed altogether In salt
Lake They certainly deserve well OF
the public and their courage In the
face of so many backscts ought TO
receive due recognition. Here's 10 tne
hope that things musical may have
reached their lowest ebb and that the
new year may introduce a strong turn
about face on the part OF the lethar-
gle public.
Salt Lake might study with benefit
the conditions in Los Angeles. pictur-

From the New Haven Journal-COur-

of he president as the apostle OF siren

been born Of his athletic strenuosity.
But matters have changed. That man
only may be termed strenuous who
turns his -ncessant efforts to good eff
feet. Strenuosity implies in some
manner or other a h gh potentially
for great accomplishments 1t does
not at all imply irritability or bell g
erency, inasmuch as the latter quail
tiles necessarily prevent one from at
tanning the greatest accomplishments.

reason he should not longer be gener.

the best kind Of stTenuosi-y. A presi-
dent Of the United States should pre-
serve his ind viduaI ty and stand by
his guns as regards his policies, to be
sure, but it is equally as impor ant
that he preserves his own dignity and
the gnity of the executive branch OF
the government with every other de-
partment and with none more than

er's Weekly said of Mr.. Roosevelt:
He is a rash inaccurate, belligerent
a great 'butter-in' and he hates TO
own up when he is beaten. He fol-
lows the ball for all he is worth, and
when another player gets in his way,
there is a bouncing concussion." Tha.
is even more true of him today
1t is more than to be regretted, it
is lamen able, when, as now the fire
quent messages of president o. the
United States are met with open and
derieive laughter when read in the
houses of Congress. The country
has seen presidents, many Of them.
who have been out of sympathy with
the policies of their congresses, but
We doubt whether the country has
ever seen a president who. like Mr..
Roosevelt, has made himself so often

pity.
