enormous salaries received from this
college, amounting to about 100000 a
year.
Il have thus proven" said he, "a
grand total of $1,540,000 per year with
which to swell the Golfers of our mer-
chants; but even this large sum is
merely a trifle when compared with
other benefits coming from such an in
stitution. For instance, take the thou
sands of people who are perhaps at
this moment contemplating trip to
Southern California Reading advertise
ments in the great magazines stating
that we have one of the largest col
leges of music in the world, which has
as instructors the greatest artists from
Europe, people would naturally enough
become convinced that there is more
her than merely the best climate and
citrus fruit. The inevitable result would
be additional influx of people,"
Numerous letters received by the Won
Stein academy from prominent bust
ness men and from DR.. e. c. Moore,
superintendent of public schools clear
ly indicate that the intelligent classes
realize the need of such an institution,
and nearly all these letters offer to aid
the institution, If needed.
To all such inquiries the management
of the music college has replied that
no subscriptions of any kind are So
licited, and that the only desirable help
must come in the form of legitimate
patronage. If, out of $4,000 music stu
dents who are now actually taxing
music lessons from private teachers IN
this city, only 1900 would add their
patronage to the 400 students already
enrolled with this conservatory, Los
Angeles would have within six months
a college of music that would attract
attention throughout America. Inc
1000 students would enjoy the best IN
struction and advantages which private
instruction makes possible; at the same
time the cost to parents of such stu
dents would be actually less than at
present.
