News Notice on Community Music

| News Notice on Community Music
| One of the most unique fea-
lures of the Wisconsin Weeks
will be the daily periods devoted
to Community Music. Wiscon-
sin has been in the lead in this
movement to make America a
singing nation, and the six days
of the coming Chau tauqua
should push this movement a
step further forward. No part
of the program has received
more careful attention than that
having to do with the general
participation of the audience in
singing. Professor Dykema,
chief of the Bureau of Commun-
lty Music of the Extension
Division OF the University, bias
selected assistants with whom
he has been in touch for q con-
siderable period so that they
are fully i'm bued with his demo-
cratic enthusiasm for general
singing. Every evening from Z
lo'clock until 7:3O there will be a
song feat in which everybody is
invited to take part, and in
which if the experiences of two
years of this experiment in Wis
consin may be relied upon,
every body will joyously take
part. In addition to an inspir-
ing leader. there will be a
special chorus which will serve
to spur on a general audience.
This special chorus will meet
every evening at $50 to go over
the songs to be used at the z
o'clock period, and also to pre-
pare special mum bers for con.
cert use. The privileg of be-
longing to this chorus and
sharing without extra charge
the training of the skilled
director, is open to all singers
who posses fair voices, ability
to read simple music, and
willingness to attend regularly.
The first meeting will be Leld at
$50 p. m. on the opening day.
There will be singing at other
period in the day also possibly
at 900 in connection with the
moving pictures. There will
be slides thrown upon the
screen containing familiar songs
so that beautiful harmony will
arise-in the haIf light given by
the lantern. There will be sing
ing for the children during their
play hour; there will be a meet
ing OF a local group of in
stramentalists who will appear
at some of the z O'Clock periods
in connection with the specia.
chorus and the general singing.
Plans are also on foot, if the
musical talent displayed war
rants it, to use all of the local
talent in final grand program
on the closing day.
Miss Florence Marsh is one
Of those infectious enthusiasts
who believes that everybody can
sing, and who, by her joyous
ness and earnestness, makes
nearly every body else believe
that this is so and hence try to
sing. And singing is a simple
matter when there is a large
group of people joining in the
singing Of familiar songs as
"Old Folks av Home, "Od
Black joe, "Annie Laurie,
"Auld Lang Syne", "America"
and many others of the old
heart songs which all of US have
sung at some time in our lives,
but which many of us have not
had the opportunity to sing
lately. Unless youare deaf and
: dumb, you will find yourself
joining in happy chorus.

MODERATE PRICES AT The
EXPOSITION. fr

Effective arrangements have been
made bv the exposition authorities. at
San Francisco to keep visitors Of small
means from being imposed upon. Of
ficers have been established for the
registry of hotels and accommodations
and information on these subjects Is
impaired without charge. A person who
trusts to luck and his own astuteness
may possibly be made to pay exorDi-
tant charges for board and lodging,
but the official information bureau IS
able to suit all pockets and assure
patrons that they will not be swindled.
II Is quite possible for a married
couple to stay at the exposition

a week and remaining until late at

At the same time they need miss no

There is no reason to believe that
prices at the exposition have been
seriously inflated. Visitors will not be
robbed either in the city or on the
grounds unless they wilfully expose
themselves to imposture. The influx
of visitors will necessarily bring
flood of prosperity to San Francisco
but there is not likely to be any dan

great deal of speculation Hence
when the exposition is over. no reac-
ton is likely to ensue with period

temporary riot of speculative profits

Governor Alexanders clerical force

two women stenographers and a man
stenographer, who has been put on as
additional help. the aggregate salary
OF these three, or at least that part
OF it charged against the state, being

II Is thus seen that for this clerical
help in the governors office the state
is paying $50 per month more than
during the first year Of the Haines

than during the second year OF that
administration.

in other offices be reduced while that
