Unless Cairo received s2.40n
worth of services from its city eoun-
sellor, it should reduce his salary
and If it is found that the city does
not require the services OF legal
counsel often enough to justify re-
tanning law representative on the
payrolls. 1t should entirely dispense
with the services of the counsellor
1t seems that the city, by following
the forms used in previous cases
when ordering street improvements,
should be able TO conduct the affairs
of the city without retaining the SER
cises OF counsel at the tremendous
of $500 a month. This
money could be used to better ad-
vantage for other needs.

The South African View.

The great and only Paderewski
has been playing in South Africa,
but will never do it again. He has
been insulted by hardy burghers,
not once but many times. He init
mates that these persons have no
appreciation of art Americans can
understand the viewpoint of the
South Africans, for the same criti-
cism has been leveled at us, though,
not so much of late years. That
Paderewski's structures have some
just grounds appears from an open
letter addressed to the pianist ap-
pearing in Pretoria News. 1t says.
What have you done for the
world? What do you do? You play
the plano am told that you play
the piano better than any other liv-
ing pianist. am not prepared to
dispute that; but, after all. what
is there In playing the piano?
We had man here the other day
who could not only play the plano.
but several other instruments, in
GLIDING the jewsharp. Nobody made
q fuss about him. 1t cost only 2
shillfngs TO hear him play all his
Instruments He did not have the
mayor to receive him, nor did he
charge a guinea (s5) for his front
seats.
This Ia refreshing, albeit a triie
brutal. The burgher cannot under
stand why 1t is more wonderful to
play only one instrument than II
Is to play that and seventeen others,
including the jewsharp. If a per-
former on one instrument Is great,
then performer on eighteen nstru.
inents ought to be eighteen times 4
great, or course the quality OF the
performance should have sometime
to do with 1t, but this the man from
Pretoria leaves out entirely. 1t Il
quantity he is looking for Perhaps
some of our American negroes who
can play on four or Ave instruments
at once would impress him still
more.
