Handy's Ambitions
For "BLues" High:
Plays At Lyric

To create in the blues an Amer

this country of the position of Euro

the ambition of Handy, Beale avenue
musician, whose fame since going. to
New York several years ago, has
reached point where he is not un-
known abroad. Handys music is dis
tinctive, entirely different from any
thing in music today. Many people
have confused it with jazz. 1t differs
from the wild syncorated strains of
jazz as much as some of the classics
differ from ragtime.

lee songs nave been Incorporated by
this negro musician into a medley
which he has named Blues" Played
soft and in lifting fashion it con
tans all the rag qualities, but with n
soothing strain that might wei lbe com
pared with some OF the lighter operate
and orchestral selections by masters
Handy will give a concert at the lY-
rio Sunday night, for white people. His
program includes all the well-known
''blues" pieces to be topped by The
Memphis Blues" originally known as
mister Crump." There will be but one
performance Fourteen pieces are in
cluded in the orchestra, which Handy
is taking over the South.

cared for, as it failed to cry. 1t was
just a few hours old, and perfectly
healthy and strong.
The negro sexton at the CHURCH who
accompanied Brooks and Griffin to the
police station, said he saw two we'll
dressed men attempt to leave the child
on the church steps, but they hesitated
when he turned on light at the en-
trance. Thy moved on few feet and
left ii in the auto. He said he could
not identify them, The baby was placed

TAXPAYERS WILL /

Mayor Paine has made such progress
upon the department budget estimates
that he will soon he able to announce
within few thousand dollars the low

He expects to receive a revised esti-

work out the details of the increased
salaries granted the teachers at the last
meeting of the school board Original
estimates by the board were that $685.
900 more would be needed this year
than last. Probably the new salary
schedules win bring the increase TO
$500 900 additional.
Mayor Paine has in mind, as soon
as the total assessment figures are
available, which will not be before
June, calling a series of public meet
ings, at which citizens interested will
be asked to express their views upon
the tax rate. The mayor also, may
issue several statements, analyZing the

he did in the street car rate hearing

An Old Law That Will Be
Revived.

Problems not unlike the oncs that
disturb the nation at present confronted
the settlers at jamestown In the earlier
days OF the country.
Capt John Smith, being man OF
practical methods and endowed with a
goodly amount Of common sense. saw
through the difficulty at once
Perhaps being devout man. he read
his Bible. In the old days when there
were serious problems and great trials
to be borne 1t was not unusual for the
pioneers 10 seek comfort and aid in
the inspired Word.
II he did read his Bible he didn't
read very far before he came upon the
passage that decrecd that man should
cat bread by the sweat Of his face
Thereupon Capt. Smith Issued an
order OF his own. It was quite as sim
pie and quite rs effective and in line
with the orthodox teachings of the day
The order read: NE that does not work
shall not eat"
There were a few who stood upon
their rights and resisted the order as
an invasion Of their personal liberty"
Capt Smith sent them into the wilder.
for admittance.
Then they went to work They raised
corn for bread and nodded bullets with
which TO Kill their meat or an ocea-
sional skulSing Indian. Health i'm
proved and the settlement was rcvoIu-
iionized into a happy family.
The situation today Is not more COM
plicated. without an official order the
economic law is gradually working to
the end that Capt Smiths decree shall
again prevail
