Gloucester City, n. J.-Members of
the city council are being appealed
to by taxpayers and others to take
the necessary action before the next
annual election to fix the salary of
the mayor according to the city char
ter, which orders that it shall be $50
per year.
The present salary, under a resolu-
ton of the city council, is $1,000. It
is the claim Of those behind the
movement that the salary is too high
for the office and some of the men,
bers of the council have expressed
themselves in favor of the change.

The recital given last evening int
the Methodist church by the pupils
of Miss Malen Burnett of Walla Wal
la was an artistic success. The pro-
gram was opened by Nellie Whiting
who also played modern group later
and was accompanist for Miss Simp-
son. Miss Writings playing is brill
liant but she is also gifted with a
beautiful tone and her interpretations
show careful work.
Little Wilhelmina Crawford's work
was daintiness itself and very remark
able in a child.
Miss Simpson seems equally talent
ed as a pianist and singer, her work
in both being that of conscientious
student. Miss Simpson has studied
voice the past winter with Mrs. Sell
kirk Norton and certainly reflects
credit upon her teacher. Miss Susie
Crawford's Interpretation of "Out to
the Woods" made one feel the spirit
of il. She played with a dash and
style that would have been good in
one many years her senior. Miss
Taylor was equally at home in the
more brilliant numbers and those re-
Quiring more thought. Her tone as
shown lin the "Liebristraum" of Liszt
and the Lest Hand study was exquis-
ite and her runs clear and dainty.
The program as whole showed care
full training and Miss Burnett herself
a musician having spent a number
of years abroad, should feel justly
proud of the success of her pupils as
shown by the hearty applause of the
audience. H..H
