NOTED. PIANIST
HERE NEXT WEEK
PaSquaIe TaIIariCO to Enter
tain for Civic Music
Lovers.

The first Of the series of artist
concerts to be presented TO South
Bend music lovers by the Civic Mu-
sic association will bring Pasquale
Tallarico. Through a misunder-
standing, it was announced in the
daily papers that he would be here
on Wednesday night Dec. u. but
the date for the concert is Thurs
day night, Dec. IS.
Some confusion seems to exist
concerning the concerts given by the
association Mem bers are entitled
to the regular monthly concert given
by the local artists and a reduction
of so cents on the $3.50 ticket which
is charged for three artist concerts.
Aim is Good Music.
South Bends Civic Music associa-
ton is making a desperate effort to
popularize good music and their ul-
innate success is already assured.
The aim of the association is TO give
the public good music for just what
it costs the association.
The regular monthly concerts are
always interesting and entertaining
and the c. w. Best artists enter
tanments are not surpassed by any
lyceum course or any company in
any city.
1t is the duty of every music
lover i'm South Bend TO support this
movement as the city is sadly neg
ligent when it comes to anything
pertaining 10 art.
Will Please Any One.
Tallarico will please anyone
whether musician or not. Although
an Italian by birth. he is justly
proud of having received all of his
musical education i'm America, his
adopted country. I'm October, 1914,
ne entered the contest for Ameri-
can trained pianists playing the
Mcdowell A minor concerto in
competition with 80 pianists from
10 states of the Union, and was
given the unanimous decisions Of
the judges. He has been the sue
/ cessful sOloist with the following
Orchestras: Philadelphia Symphony
Chicago Symphony. St. Louis Sym
phony and Los Angeles Symphony
His program for Thursday night
Will be as follows;
l. Sonata, A major. ..... Schubert
Allegro Moderate Andante AL
legro.
>. Prelude. Choral and Fugue.

Farmer Jim" he came to town
with some men Of great renown,
Wanting to give out a school,
But we think he's played the fool.
For no money and no price,
Nor political device,
Was to lead them into sin.
As II has so many men.
But the merits Of the town
To these men Of great renown,
Were to tell the reasons why
They should not pass snyder by
But another Jim" you know
Who had awful lots Of dough
Went down to that Austin town,
And we think he planked 1t down.
But II this Is not the truth,
Some new plan that 1t his tooth
Was arranged, as we may see,
BY which they could "haw and gee
Yes, they went up very high,
SO that no one could be nigh;
To the fourth floor they did go,
And they planned II all "iust So"
But some people Of the west
Who have always done their best
Want to know where all the dough
Raised by Abilene did gol
And snyder people are not beat
They have never known defeat
For their rights they now will fight,
And will fight with all their might
And We think old Farmer Jim
And the Jim" who planned with him
win soon know they've lost a school
And they both have played the fool.

TO THE PEOPLE OF TEXAS

they do not tell all the truth for the reason that
they do not show the other expenses of the rail-
road, such as taxes, ETC.. These other expenses,
taxes, hire and rent of equipment, rents of joint
facilities, rents accrued for lease of roads and
miscellaneous rent will, for the year ending
June 30, 1917, amount TO about seventeen
million five hundred thousand dollars. Taxes
alone will amount to over five million dollars,
These expenses are just as legitimate and neces-
sary as the expenses OF running the trains.
When these other necessary expenses are de-
Quoted, il will be seen that the railroads of Texas
have earned during the year ending June 30 not
over per cent upon the value of their properties
that are used exclusively for transportation pur-
poses for your benefit.
For the eight preceding years the railroads of
Texas had been operated at net loss of over
twenty million dollars. RI
While other legitimate business is paying div
idends of from ten to fifty per cent per annum,
surely no just man will object to the railroads
occasionally earning such small return on the
value of their property. Surely they ought to
be permitted to earn per cent once in nine
years without being complained at, or abused.
Out of the aforesaid returns, the railroads
must pay the interest on their bonds and other
Indebtedness and make betterments, etc
Unfortunately, the inability of the railroads to
earn anything like adequate returns makes rail-
road investments very unattractiye and accounts

for the almost complete cessation of railroad con-
struction
More and better railroads are needed, but I'M
til the business and earnings of the railroads
improve so as to favorably compare with
other business, men with monev will
not invest in railroads, there being so many
other avenues of investment where the re-
turns are much larger and much more certain.
Whenever the operation of railroads become
reasonable, money will be readily obtalnable
for building additional lines
An analysis and understanding of the
conditions of the railroads, physical and fin
ancial, will convince any falr-minded man
that they cannot stand reduction in either
their freight or passenger rates, and give to
the people anything like adequate service. II
passenger rates were reduced, freight rates
= would necessarily have to be increased. Every
one who buys anything, shipped BY fa has
to contribute to pay freight rates Only those
who travel extensively would want passenger
rates reduced and freight rates increased.
These few are more able to pay the present
reasonable passenger fares, than the masses
of the people to pay greater freight rates.
To you who pay the expenses and are entit-
ed to know the facts, this simple statment OF
the condition Of these public service utilities
is submitted and we most respectfully and
earnestly ask your fair and intelligent con-
sideration
