MUSICAL AT GRAMMAR SCHOOL.
A 8ensfit for All Concerned Nexl
Tu sdaF Jan 20.

There are many comments afioat
regading the coming recital at the
Grammar School Hall on Tuesday.
January 20, and that ali facts may
be known. the true ones are here
stated.
First Of all the recital is for the
benefit of the Presbyterian Church,
the idea being originated by q faith
ful worker in that church and Miss
Schsefer. II is also fer the benefit
OF Miss Whelan and Miss Schsefer,
both Of whom have spent and still are
spending, much time and money for
the development of the talents which
God has given them. SO there are
two good reasons why the recital
should be pstronIzed. First TO help
a worthy church to pay some Of its
debts, and second, to help two young
ladies starting out 10 their chosen
profession.
"Ycu won't make you expenses, "
was one Of the comments. Anna
polls isn't oue bit musical. What do
they care about a recital. The
same is said about Baltimore, yet il
is the home Of the Peabody Conservs-
tory Of Music, and even supports a
choir and a concert bureau.
Music was once upon time cOnsid-
cred an unnecessary luxury, but il
has since been proven to be as essen
tial to education to hear good music
as it is to see good pictures and read
good books. And as for Annapolis
not sppreciating good music-thst is
too sweeping a statement 10 argue.

CHANGE PROPOSED IN
THE STATE BOULEVARD
Roads Commission Makes Sug-
gestiOn in Annual Report.
WOULD GO THROUGH BROOKLYN
Highway Could be Completed First
Class at Cost Of $1,000, 900. it
Is Urged.

Proposing an important change in
the route Of the Annspolis-Bsltimore
boulevard. the report Of the State
Roads Commission for 1879 and 1913
was presented to the Legislature yes
terdsy afternoon.
The Legislature Of 1910 sppropriat-
ed s.. 600, 600 Of bonds, part Of which
was TO go 10 the construction Of a
boulevard from the foot Of King
George street. this city. via Glenbur-
ME. to the foot Of Ridgely street.
Baltimore. This boulevard is now
finished from Annapolis 10 Glenbur-
ME. There is q fine macsdsm State
road fIom Glenburnie TO Brooklyn,
and the Commission suggests that
the boulevard be diverted north st
Glenburnie to pass through Brooklyn
70 the Light sire ct bridge.
II is shown that Baltimore city L.
spe ndings250, 00o 70 provide q smooth
highway from the north end Of Light
street bridge over Light, Cromwell
and Hanover streets TO Baltimore
street. The proposed $1,000, 600
copcrete bridge across the river to
Brooklyn is also cited as another
argument in favor Of the change Of
route
This would give a complete5 boule-
ward from this city to the business
center Of Baltimore at q cost of about
2,oCO, 600, including the cost Of the
new Light street bridge.
To build now from Glenburnie
through Anne Arundel and Baltimore
counties 10 Ridgely street, as con
templated by the act Of 1910, would
mean the construction Of q parallel
boulevard from Glenburnie 70 the
Baltimore, and would stop at q dead
end on Ridgely street says the re
port This extension. it is shown.
would cost 1925, 600, and the report
adds:
"The Commission feels that this
would be an Unnecessary and uuwise
expt nditure Of the States money,
and recommends that the General
Assembly Of 1914 enact such legis-
lstion a. may be necessary to relieve
il from the obligation Of spending
any more of this fund n the next
two years in the manner specified by
the act Of 1910. but TO set aside
theTefrom the sum Of $50, ,242.5s for
the purpose of keeping the Severn
river bridge in repair during that
time. for taking care of the $4,000
Of the Couowingo bonds and for other
miscellaneous purposes, and that the
Commission be clearly relieved from
any obligation take over the Col
lege creek bridge in 1914 and 1915. "

NEW YORK WILL HAVE
. LONG RACING SEASON
Ponies Will Open Campaign
May 20 and Close in
Late August.

NEW YORK, Feb, l4.-Arrange-
ments have been completed by the sew
eral associations and the Jockey club
for renewal of racing this year. While
the dates have not yet been given out
officially, it is learned from very re-
liable authority that the opening day
of the season will be Wednesday, May
20, and that racing will continue with
out intermission from then TO the end
in Saratoga, which will run through the
month Of August. This means racing
six days in each week,
According to the present schedule
there will be fifteen days racing at
each Of the four tracks, Belmont be-
ing allotted the first fifteen. From
there the scene will move to Jamaica
for fifteen days, to be followed Gy
Aqueduct and Empire City, from
whence an exodus will be made TO ssar-
atoga. There will be a lapse of day
or two during the Jamaica session to
make room for racing nj Piping Rock,
but that will be the only break from
continuous sport on Old association
tracks until The end OF August. IN the
meantime 1T Is possible that some ar
rapgements may be made for some ra-
cling during the autumn.
When the official schedule is pub
lished it Will read something ike the
following:
Belmont Park. May 20 to June 6.
Jamaica, June to 26 or 81. 1.-TWO
or three days will he cut from the Ja-
maica meeting to make room for Pip
ing Rock).
Empire City, July l6 to August |.
Saratoga, August 3 to 20 or 81.
Prior to the racing in New York
state il is probable that the sport in
the eastern part of the country will be-
applied for as many days III April as
the Jockey club can justly assign. This
meeting will be followed by Havre de
Grace, which will probably hold fiji
teen davs' session Pmlco will then
come in with about fifteen days, which
would fill in the time between the OF.
ening of Norfolk and the first day at
Belmont park.
1t was proved last year that the
sport of horse racing is appreciated IN
this city. Never was there such dem
onstratou as that at Belmont park on
Memorial dav, when 10000 persons
arose as one man when the horses pa
raded to the post for the first race,
and the applause lasted until the horses
had walked to the starting point half
mile away.
From that moment until the close of
the season at Saratoga the patronage
at all the tracks spoke more than
words for the popularity of horse rae
ing.
All things considered the outlook is
pleasing for all concerned The sport
last year was conducted in n dignified
and elevating way and foundation
IL. ll.% EoI ~
the future. The Jockey club and the
several associations are determined TO
foster the sport Of racing and hope
in time to bring il back to the days
when this country boasted of some os
the greatest thoroughbreds in the wcrld.
