Cooperation Has Aided Work.

Both the Office corps and the pat
ent attorneys are cooperating in fine
spirit, and with a few changes in
methods we have been able to make
the showing previously referred to
largely because Of this cooperation.
AS an illustration of how these old
cases are being disposed of. the num-
Der of those in the fifteen-year class
has been reduced rs per cent In the
last year.
1T has been the practice of many at
torneys, for years. to secure delays
from time to time by fling amend
ments to their applications, many Of
which have been inconsequential and
intended only to create delay. Under
an order made several months ago no
amendments to cases more than eight
years old are now accepted until l
have passed upon them personally. The
result is that there have been fewer
of this class of amendments accepted,
and action on these cases has been ac-
tolerated After December l, unl1A an
order recently issued. the same rule
will apply to all cases more than Ave

FAVOR TRADE COMMISSION.
Business Mems Position Cited to
Members of Congress.

The Chamber of Commerce of the
United States today sent to every member
of the House and Senate a letter con-
tanning an analysis of the referendum
vote recently taken by the chamber rel
ative to the proposed interstate trade
commission bill. Analysis of the whole
vote shows that business men generally
favor the measure. A scrutiny of the
vote cast shows. however, that there is
wide divergence of opinion between the
organizations of different localities.
The analysis by states shows the east
ern states voting IS in favor and 81
against the commission; the southern
states 81 in favor and 2 against; the
central western states ITO for and IL
against, and the western and Pacific
coast states 81 for and 10 against Ma
tional trade organizations cast 9s votes
in favor of the commission and but 8
against it.

 Bispham said to me on one occasion when
 we were discussing the fact that so many teachers give up recital work entirely
 for the quiet of the studio Said he: "A singer ought to know how to teach, and a teacher ought to know how to sing?

 My father used to laugh and wonder where I got my love of musie-if it was inherited" said MT. Lawrence reminis- gently, 'and after a long resume of all the ancestors on both sides of my family he laughingly told me one day that my musical talent must have been inherited from him, because he had once played the base drum in a campaign band"
 Don't you sometimes find teaching tcdious?' I questioned
 Never" he said. T believe however, in mixing work. I find that when I've been concentrating that I go back to my studio filled with renewed energy and n more delightful sense of the responsibil- ity of my duty toward my pupils than ever defore. Public appearances in re- citals of song, spur me on to tremendous, ambitious heights that emphasize my studio work more than I can say. I real ly love teaching.

"has the advantage of cov- ering up many defects both physically and vocally. by orchestration, costum- ing and other accessories. whereas the singer who gives a recital Of song, has but the piano and his audience, hence the test is tremendous as to his total accomplishments and his musical education"
 Take Atlanta, for instance, and New orleans; both towns support grand opera, and support it gor- geously," MT. Lawrence went on to say. "I had the choice of locating in Atlanta-fla ttering offers, too. but I declined them. It wasn't what was looking for"
 And why-Birmingham?" I asked.
 Because it Is the logical center for a great conservatory in the south, such as the Sherwood Musical school, pro- poses to establish said MT. Lawrence quickly. "It has not suffered from the effects of opera--nothing but opera and 1t Is a new town--its musical taste Is forming and the opportunity for results is tremendous here.

 The other man nodded.
