only teaches Its active members to
sing, and not only has discovered and
trained many local musicians, whose
talent would otherwise have been
buried. but has raised the standard
of music in the community and has
educated the popular taste to appre-
ciate and enjoy the best music, and
thereby created lively demand for
It,
Accordingly the Wednesday Club
gives II great music festival In Rich
mond every spring for the past sew
eral years, and the people have had
the pleasure and privilege Of hearing
the finest chorus singing, accompanied
by grand orchestra, and of hearing
also some of the star artists of the
music world.
Among the stars this year will be
Allesandro Bonci. the rival OF Caruso.
and Miss Bette Burwell Booker, a
widely known soprano, who returns
TO Richmond, her home city, from a
successful season in Convent Garden,
London.
The feature of the festival will be-
the singing of the opera Aida with
visiting artists in the leading roles

900 voices and with the Metropolitan

1t ought to be usual. The Health De-
partment and the street cleaners and
tho Mayor and the preachers and the
people ought to make cleanliness per-
manent. 1t ought to be like three
square day; not like a circus TO a
backwoods truant. Lots get used 10
the idea of being clean. 1t isn't going
TO hurt us.
Moreover, let us get used to tho
idea of how we are going to get clean
on the high and mighty side of clean
ing-up and not enough on the plain
sweeping and shoveling. The thing is
a spectre instead of 81 job. 1t Is re-
eardcd as text, not as part of the
days work With all due respect to
the good Intentions and excellent civic
spirit of the persons who got up last
the spiritual and not enough Of the
material in 1t. We learned more Of
why We should cleanup than we did
of the how. Fresh air is good for
cleanup, but you can't put much faith
in hot air.
Look at the thing sensibly. We are
going to cleanup for four or five
main reasons: for health for safety
against fire; for comfort, for beauty;
for civic pride: for the lesson of CO.
operation and community work, and
because ii is Il good thing TO be clean
We want things to look and smell fresh
and Wholesome. II never seems to
strike anybody in this crusade, that
there are lot of Brob6inEnagian
StencheS loose In tho town that 1t
would be much nicer to get rid of
There isn't anything high falutin'
about such desire The smells are
horrible and they are TO be done away
with. Moldy old cellars: fetid shops
and markets; dung heaps, and pud-
dles-we are just going after them
with the shovel and the broom. That's
all.
Therefore, what we want is energy,
direction, what the ball players call
pep and the reporters punch
Clcaning-up means work. II is hard
TO get anybody to work. Let us come
off the high horse and get TO work at
the very simple and primitive task of
brushing things up in pile, shoveling
them into cart, and hauling them
away to be burned.

$500, disinherlted two-sc score relatives

an award OF $1,000 for his services and
most OF the remaining $1,000 went to
pay the costs of four years litiga-
