When l began compiling statistics
about music clubs in the South l ask
ed number of club women for advice
and information, and one and all they
replied, "Ask Mrs. ,Lupton!" "Mrs.
Lupton can tell you. Don't write
anything until you have seen Mrs.
Lupton"
"Wherc is she-and what does she
do? What can she tell me about?"
"Why Clarksville, Tennessee, of
COURSE" came the chorus. "She is
the woman who walked Clarksville up
about music. Don't you know that
all the Clarksville people 60 to Nash
vile and Memphis every time there is
any grand opera to be heard? Don't
you know about the Monday Club of
Clarksville-and how all the Univer-
sity people belong, and the students
come to the concerts? All that is
Mrs. Lupton's doings"
| So "asked Mrs. Lupton," and when
she began to tell me about her twen-
ty-two years of unselfish service for
music in her COMMUNICATING of it
as ungrudgingly as though it had been
twenty-five days-and when her fine
face kindled with enthusiasm, I real
lied that had come upon one of those
rare spirits whose personality abides
and inspires even after the work it
self is finished. Some day am hop
ing that you shall have her own words
and judge for yourself what she has
accomplished.
Art and music are our neglected
children" said one state federation
president, but she said it before Mrs.
Wardwell became chairman of the Mu-
sic Department of the General Feder-
alton, and she will tell you trium-
phantly that she doesn't have to say
it any more. Wide musical knowl-
edge and experience and rare execu-
tive ability make Mrs. F. S. Ward
we'll peculiarly fitted to develop this
department of Federation activities.
The fact that Americas foremost lee
turers and artists responded to her re-
quest to appear on the music pro-
grams at the recent biennial proves
how seriously the work Of this great
organization of women is valued in
America by the foremost teachers,
composers and artists.
If Mrs. Chester Deering could bring
together three thousand voices in Tul-
sa, Oklahoma, and Mrs. Lupton go
about like the Pied Piper with Clarks-
vile singing at her heels, why then
what can we plain ordinary mortals
do to quicken the millennium of Am
erican music? One thing-we can
encourage.
If your church choir gives you an
especially fine program on Sunday
tell them so!
! Visit your children's school at mu-
sic hour and see what they are doing.
If you have victrola or a phono-
graph, see that the records are things
you want your child to remember, for
count upon it, he will never forget
them, and the very tunes you hum
about your daily tasks will go down
with his memories of home and of
you ng after things and affairs that
seem now more important have been
thrust aside and forgotten.

Chinese Tithers Shame American
Christian,

The Presbyterian Christians of the
country churches in the Tsingtau field,
China, have gone on to the tithing
basis. The missionary calculated the
average income of each family and
posted the result on the church wall,
together with the amount each family
was giving, and then contrasted it
with one-tenth of the income. The
contrast in some cases was startling.
The people had not realized they could
90 so much. In the mountain regions
the income from frewood was also
estimated.
Imagine in the home churches the
assets Of each member being posted
on the church wall, together with the
amount he actually gives to the evan
gelization of the world. And con-
trast this with his share as it should
be on the basis of the 1.-THE.
A wonderful old woman of seventy
five, of mighty praying power, who
cannot read a character, and who has
been prosecuted by her family for fif-
ty years, has been used to break down
the opposition in several villages
praying faithfully for her own perse-
cutting family. About sixty people in
one village have been baptized
through her efforts, and a school of
twenty pupils started in another
heather center. This old woman out
of an income of about SIS gold gives
three tenths of it toward new church
which will cost the munifcent sum OF
500 gold.

these buildings with an addition $2,50(

John NJ. Lontz acquires what is
known as the tractor building or
Washington avenue, where the auto
mobile show was held, and a triangle
of vacant property to the east of this
building, south of the line of vacated
F street and fronting Eighth street on
the west side. For this property Mr.
Lontz pays $17,500, of which amount
$4,000 represents a bonus.
Foundry Gets Land.
The Reliance Foundry company has
secured all the property north of the
paint shop (Which is just north of the
tractor building and which has been
acquired by the Shirk interests), and
between Eighth street and the rail
road switch which runs north and
south. This property was secured by
the Reliance company for 100000.
The United Refrigerator companies
will have all the property north OF
Bridge avenue, and the line of vacated
f street, between the river and the
railroad switch which is the dividing
line between its property and that
acquired by the Reliance company
Also the United Refrigerator companies
take over the paint shop building front
ing Eighth street, as mentioned above
1t was learned today that after the
committee had contracted for the sale
of $685. 900 of the property it held option
on it was represented to the Shirk in
terests that the successful consum
nation of the deal depended upon
them. The Commercial club had
agreed to pay the Rumely company
100000 for it's local plant but only
SIS, 1000 was in sight. Officials of the
United Refrigerator company were in
formed that the committee was mind
full of the fact that the company hao
originally been promised factory build
ings without cost to the company, as
an inducement for locating their fac
tories in Richmond, but we're reminded
that there was grave probability OF
the entire deal collapsing unless the
company contributed the difference be
tween the amount the club had to
apply to the purchase of the Rumely
properties and the price demanded by
the Rumely company, this difference
amounting to $4,000.
The Shirk interests were also
promised the paint shop building
valued at $4,000, if they contributed
$4,000 to swing the deal. After con.
sidering this proposal for,two days the
United Refrigerator companies accept.

made plain 10 them that under no con-

seek to raise this amount by popular
subscription,
The Reliance Foundry company has
informed the club officials that the
building it is to use as a foundry is
not large enough for its business and
it will at once construct another build
ing of the same size. The officers of
this company are greatly pleased over
their success in securing a section OF
the Rumely plant as the buildings the
company now uses are owned by the
Pennsylvania railroad company and
can be rented only month at a time,
the railroad refusing to give a lease
on them.
Some of the property secured by
George Miller will be used for storage
purposes by the Miller Brothers Hard
ware company. Other buildings will
be offered for sale to manufacturing
concerns seeking locations. 1t Is said
that Mr.. Miller has already secured an
offer for one of these buildings.

REV. KENNY TELLS
MISSION OF CHURCH

Membership, meetings and the mis-
sion of the church were discussed Sun.
day morning at the regular service of
the First Baptist church by the Rev. F.
G. Kenny. "The Building of the
Church" was the subject of his SER
mon.
Membership of church is different
from that of any other organization,
he explained. Membership is based on
faith. Meetings are different, for their
is a peculiar presence of an unseen
one who has the same power to bless
today that He had many centuries ago
while He was on earth. The mission
of the church is to teach men to live
and work with their fellowmen toward
the betterment of conditions.
