HOLLAND ON MUSIC
Editor State Journal:

Editor State Journal:
A great many have the idea that
a concert manager is bringing artists
here simply as a -blooded money
making proposition, which is not true
in the full sense of the meaning. In
a way we are teachers the same as the
piano, voice or violin teacher who is
training your child along one of these
lines of music. In the studio you get
the technical side Of the training,
which you must have, but in the con-
cert hall you get an entirely different
angle, a deeper appreciation of what
results can be obtained and what you
are really working for yourself, in
fact it is as much a lesson to you as
the hour you spend with your teacher
in the studio.
Do you think that the music teach
err who is teaching your child or your
self to play or to sing, is doing so for
the mere money making part of it 4?
No, you don't think so. You believe
that the teacher has the interest of
the student at heart. The concert
manager has the interests of all the
students at heart just as much as the
individual teacher. The teacher can
not afford to bring these great artists
to his or her studio for an individual
concert for his students, even tho
this is as vital a part of the education
as the actual technical training that
has to be given individually. So when
a concert is given by an artist, re-
eardless of, whether they be a vocal
ist or instrumental.st it is really a
music lesson for you.

find MANY EXCEPTIONS
Railroads and Express Company OBJ
serve Perfect Package MONTH

Railroads and Express Company OBJ
serve Perfect Package Month"
A summary Of exception reports for
the third week of the Perfect Pack
age Month" for the four Topeka rail-
roads and the American Express com
pany, covering local shipping for the
six days commencing November Il
and ending November IS, shows a
total of 1911 exceptions, divided as fol-
lows: Errors on receipts and bills of
lading, So; errors in marking pack
ages, 81; errors in packing, 68.
This, the railroad and express COM
pany officials believe. is a slight i'm
proVement over the week before when
a total of 189 exceptions were re-
ported covering a week containing
only five shipping days. Shipping the
last week was also some heavier, the
officials say. These officials also state
that they are receiving a hearty CO.
operation on the part of the shippers
in general toward making the cam
paign a success and that there Is
much interest in the work, especially
on the part of the employees of both
shippers and carriers on whom most
of the responsibility for the better
handling of packages Is placed. The
object of the campaign is to make
Topeka 100 per cent in the Perfect
Package movement which is being
observed nationally during the month
of November.
One Of the common causes for ex-
ception is that more than one address
is found upon packages when they
are turned over to the carriers for
shipment. This is especially true
among the smaller shippers who use
boxes or cartons that have been used
for the same purpose before and the
shippers neglect to remove the first
address.
