The University Club deserves the thanks of
the community for its plan to encourage anna
teur and professional artists in series Of ex-
hibitions, the first of which begins tonight.
Some day, let us hope, the city will have fine
arts building or some other structure with
galleries where may be hung products of local
pens and brushes as we'll as worthy specimens
from artists elsewhere. For the present the
city must depend upon the public spirit of such
as the University club to provide
wall-space and arrange for the exhibits. En-
enlargement of art will hasten the day of a
public building part of which may be devoted
to painting and statuary. The University club
begins this series tonight with display Of the
oil paintings Of A. r. Gurrey, Sr. IlonoIulans
who have seen his work appreciate his tech
nique and taste, and those who have not by all
means should 60 to the University club some
morning or evening between now and sSepten-
Der % and learn what talert is almost unknown
except to his friends and to those who used to
intend the Kilohana club exhibits. sssI

WHAT OTHER CITIES HAVE ACHIEVED.

The letters from mainland city executives
which the Star Bulletin is publishing from
week to week furnish rnanswerable arguments
~ favor Of the short ballot city government.
These cities have tried for many Years to at
tain efficiency under the old system of many
elective Offices and detailed division of duty
ana responsibility. The theory that the city
government would thus be more representative
q the people was plausible, but in practise it
fsid not Sc work out. Responsibility was too
Nldely scattered, blame for mistakes too easily
fKaded, opportunity for doing city business on
INC patronage basis too easily seized. So these
rites, after bitter experience with waste and
neompetence and in certain cases scandalous
corruption have come to more progressive
md efficient form of government. They have
eliminated many elective offices, concentrated
responsibility in the few that remain, and asa
Inither step some Of them have appointed city
managers and held these managers responsible

| One of the largest and most enthu-

AS the result Of the meeting, 1t Is
certain that the crop of canteloupes
in the Culleoka district next year will
be the largest ever grown in Maury

pledged and it is believed that the
crop will 60 to 400 acres before the

means that a crop OF not less than
seventy-fve cars is expected. The
largest crop, that Of last season,
amounted to twenty-five car loads.
