The president today addressed his
approval TO Jimmie Bradley. Wash
ington school boy and member Of a
John Burroughs club. who headed
the Jury. in the following letter
MY dear Jimmie
Your conclusion is that the bal
ance is In favor even Of the least de-
sirable OF the birds, and I am in
clined 10 agree with you. For why
should these birds have been put
here. unless to perform some useful
service? On the whole. / think we
will grant them a reprieve. I think
your John Burroughs club must be
doing q useful work. / hope you
will continue your nature studies
and that later on. when you all be-
come men and women, you will be as
much disposed to apply the rules OF
equity and justice as you have been
I'm this case.
Most sincerely yours,
(Signed) Warren @. Harding"

partment and got official sanction
from this office in the city hall for
the improvement to be installed i'm
mediately Tho installing Of the
public fountain in the lobby of a
business house is an entirely new
idea IN South Eend and is regarded
as an cXcecdmEl! practical one by
city hall officials because Of the diff
ficulties encounter ed by the city in
the past in keeping the sidewalk
fountains in working order.
Nearly every fountain, which has
been installed on the curbs in the
downtown district has been put out
Of commission in q very short time
as a result of being struck by pass
ing vehicles. The old fountain at
Michigan ST. and Wash ngton av.
stood many such snoclls for num-
Der of years, and las finally now
been abandoned eati.sly because Of
fcials found it impossible 10 keep it
I'M working order.
The Sailors brothers fountain Is
of the angle stream type, OF white
tile and will stand So inches high.
II IS the intention of Mr.. Rose to
erect a platform along side OF the
fountain for the accommodation Of
thirsty children.

former, and AS a teacher. He played

Fantasia and FUgue," at the con-
vention of the National Federation,
held in Rock Island. Ill. on June
s, and was invited BY the conven-
ton 70 go 10 Nuremberg, Germany.
and play it. but he was unable TO
accept such an invitation at that
time. This is the second time he
has been thus honored. In 1907
/ his "Passa glia" was selected as
one OF 20 compositions, in a list Of
400, 10 be played at Tonkunstlerfest.
He will play his prize composition in
one Of his concerts at Notre Dame.
Mr.. Middelschute first gained
/ prominence when Theodore Thomas
invited him 10 preside at the organ
and referred TO him as lone OF the
/ influential minority" Since that
time his honors have grown greater
and more numerous until he is uni
lversally recognized as one OF the
greatest organ authorities. The
| concerts he conducted at Notre
/ Dame during the summers OF 1919

/ having an opportunity TO hear such

Dame.
It is expected that some OF the
greatest musicians and composers
in the country will be present at
these concerts to pay tribute TO
AIiddelscbulte and TO hear Becker's
latest Offering Notre Dame feels
that a great debt is due to Mr.. Beck
er. not only for building up great
school Of music, but for his being
able TO bring such men to Notre
Dame and to South Bend.
During the concert today, which
will begin at 4 o'clock, Mr.. Middel-
schultz will be accompanied by Rev.
Alloys Mergl. a violinist from Chi
tcago. Mergl has also composed a
