WAsHlNdT0N's GROUND PLAN

So ACCUSTOMED is Washington to
itself as a city beautiful
that criticism Of it's development in
outlying residential sections may be
a shock. An expert Of the American
Civic Association, in a recent speech,
points to the attention now being
given in many cities to the question
of land subdivision, and deplores the
practice, prevalent in Washington,
of trying only ITO obtain the largest
number of lots from a given area
and disposing Of them in the quick
est order"
Then along comes the Boston
Transcript with the statement that
"in no other city Is there a greater
need of education along this line
than in Washington" The trouble
with Washington. as the Transcript
sees it, is that "the most beautiful
tracts have been systematically Gu!
up into the smallest slices that could
be made to hold house, and the de,
velopment of row houses instead o1
detached has been enforced upon the
last city in the United States thai
should set an atrocious example Of
how not to build a city"
Overlooking the fact that thii
charge comes with bad grace from {
city which is notorious for its lacl

ThR VANISHING SALOONS

II is announced that 600 saloons
in New York city will close with
the beginning of October. The
States retail liquor license has been
$500, making It $500,
while the city cxacts $6cO annually.
The tax is too heavy to be carried
by a great number Of saloons, and
they will quit.
This is of the same tenor as re-
ports from cities all over the coun-
Try. The number of saloons is de.
creasing by thousands; in some cases
legislation is doing it, in others the
public is withdrawing its patronage
and making business bad. 1t is need
less to say that the best results are
wrought by the latter process of
suppressing the liquor evil. 1t is
fashionable nowadays to say mo" to
the suggestion Of a "little drink

mollycoddlishness. Men who don't

doggerel, and musicians have as low
an opinion Of much Of the music.
Churches which decline to ase the
best in music, whether it bears the
stamp Of synodical approval or not,
have to face troubles with their lay
men. The people, especially in city
churches, are being educated to
good music. There 10 plenty to be
had in theaters, recitals, and con-
certs. After becoming trained to
appreciation Of good music many
find it hard to appreciate why wor-
ship is accomplished any more sure
ly by the use of poor music, rag
time, than by that which satisfies
sartistic canons.
One demonstration has solved the
problem by employing. well paid
singers for solo work, and allowing
the congregation to do - own
singing the rest Of the time. One
Washington church which broke
away from the mother congregation
on q platform Of congregational
singing only, Is now noted for tho
excellence Of it's choral music. There

MUSIC IN THE CHURCHES

The church choir, as a source Of
trouble, breaks into ecclesiastical
gatherings, provides material for
the humorists, and figures in rural
fiction. The question Of operate
music, versus what are termed the
"good old hymns" has again OBJ
truded itself upon a gathering Of
clergymen in Philadelphia.
To the musician some Of the "good
old hymns" are veritablc red flags.
Within the past few years many de-
nominations have been revising their
hymnals. Clergymen have charac-
tGyized the verse used with them a.
