TOPEKA'S MUSICAL NEEDS
BY DANIEL MULLER.

We live in a world of the masses.
People organize more clubs and fra
ternities than ever before. Colleges
and universities collect millions of dol
lars wherewith to build stadiums of
fabulous seating capacity. A number
of religious creeds have initiated
movements with the ultimate aim of
consolidation. All of which points
clearly to the fact that we are living
among conditions that stimulate mass
activity. Locally speaking, may re-
fer to the recent consolidation of the
Chamber of CommeTce and the Mer-
chants association, to a triple charity
drive just concluded and to the annual
Christmas tuberculosis seal drive now
in progress.
When we go in great numbers to
churches to worship and when we as
semble by thousands to listen to music
we are but enforcing the elementary
law that every human being seeks
companionship in his activities
These many activities of the masses
bring benefits to individuals. from
places of gathering We return TO our
homes and places of business with new
ideals, fresh inspiration and stlmu-
lated ambitions and as we participate
in these activities we become more
intelligent and better equipped Tor Iu-
ture activities. Thru these mass ac-
tivities it of necessity follows that au
times we are away from our MONIES
attending club meetings. business
meetings, concerts, to. some or Wnlch
we cannot take the whole tamlly Ior
the good reason that at some of these
meetings some of. the members of our
families cannot be benefited or pc
cause the cost would be too great OF
even because some of them are not
wanted.
I think mass activity is absolutely
essential for the upbuilding~ and Tor
the cohesion of a community morale
but 1 regret that too much OF this
mass activity is confined to grown-ups
only.
Healthy intelligent children who
have sufficient general educatIon 70
manage successfully in emergencies
are the community's greatest assets
No corporation can prosper perma-
nently without safeguarding ana en-
hancing the value OF its assets no
business concern can enjoy heaithy
growth by making sufficient sales put
insufficient collections NO commun-
ity can raise its moral standards thru
activities that do not entirely balance
as to ingredients that make 1or sue
cessful and agreeable happy com
munity life We must become con-
vinced of the usefulness of an idea
before we can successfully convince
ottprS th1t II is beneficial.
have for some time been con-
WINGED that in spite of much activity
by Topekais young people there Is
room, and haunting need Tor, an
organization which by virtue of the
character of its activities can stimu-
late more musical mass activity
among the hundreds OF children who
are growing to manhood and woman
hood IN our city. Business and pro-
fessional people must bear in mind
that their success depends upon mass
contribution
