MUSIC REPUTATION LOST,

Boston, Oct. 2S.-Bostons reputation as a music center has not been sustain ed during the past summer so far as attendance at summer resort band con- certs is concerned.
 In his annual report Ellerton P. Whitney, director of parks for the Met ropoltan District commission, which provides the concerts, asserts that he is convinced the public has lost interest in band concerts. For a number of years, the report says, the attendance at the various concerts has been de- creasing and this summer the only place where the concerts seemed to be en- joyed was at Nantasket Beach.

''BOBBED BRAINS"
Baltimore Physician Says They. Are More Vital for a Girl in Business Than Bobbed Hair.


 Baltimore, Oct 2s.-Judging a girls fitness for business by the length of her hair as an employment standard, has little more to recom- mend it than the selection of man because he wears bow tie or four in-hand, in the opinion of Dr. Will liam w. Guth, president of Boucher college of Baltimore. While a little vanity is good for any woman, "bobbed brains are a more vital subject than obbed hair according to Presi- dent Guth.
 Tt is difficult to see why this harm less feminine whim has aroused such widespread discussion,'' Dr. Guth add ed, unless, perhaps it is true that we delight in making mountains out of molehills. For, all the evidence visible from a college office points to the fact that the young girl of today is aiming toward a standard not to be compared with uniform coiffures the standard of real usefulness in the home, in the community and in the world of business.
 "So much has been said about the vanities and frovolities oi sfo mod ern girl that it is only fair to point out that the average girl of today is far better equipped mentally than the girl of a generation ago. The girl of today wants to be useful as we'll as ornamental"

IN Q speech which was given very
close attention and was frequently an.
plauded.
AT one Time" said Commissioner
Cabaldon. Congress had before 1t no
less than thirty resolutions expressing
sympathy with the aspirations Of the
irish people. II not actually urging Eng
nnd to grant independence to ireland.
At that time, also the Filipinos were
knocking at your door. Out Of the
womb Of war, many European repub.
Hes were born, and America has re.
@siced to uphold the same. And yet
the claim Ct the F!lipinos is still un.
needed. Must there be exceptions,
then. in international Justice?
my plea, gentlemen Of the Ameri-
can Congress. is that you ignore NO
longer the repeated requests Of a de.
serving people for an independence
that rlghtfully belongs to them. The
granting Of independence now affords
the United States. a golden opportunity
to give to the world unanswerable
proof of its sincerity, its consistency
and Its altruism. 1t will be the great.
est, example Of square dealing in the
history of the ages.
DO not think we are not appre.
ciative Of all you have done for us.
We are. America has truly treated
the Filipino people as no other nation
mas ever treated an alien race in all
history. The high points of the Amer.
lean policy in the Philippines have
been consistently inspired by altruism.
We Gnow that you were actuated in
: your labors by the desire to contrib.
ute to our own welfare.
"And we love you perhaps most Of
all Tor your solemn promise to grant
us that which we hold dearer than life
itself-our freedom. Independence is
our national ideal. It is our all alb
sorbing aim 1t grows stronger every
hour. For the spirit of nationalism
never dies. Much less can 1t he sub.
dued. We believe that we can never
hope to be sturdy nation II we are
to rely forever on the magnanimity of
the United States,
Americas task In the Philippine
Islands Is finished. What you have "a.
sumed as your sncred Obligation In
that part at the world has been full.
filled. A people with a medieval sys-
tenn Of institutions has Eeen trans.
formed into a conscious nation, Inn
bued with all thai. is modern in the
activities Of nations. And II you give
rs Independence our gratitude to you
will increase . thousand fold; II will
last forever II you keep faith with US.
s'There Is but one issue in the Phil.
ippine question, and that Is: IL there
