OF such sings to be held in the Ma

Under the direction of Robert Law
renee of community music the people
of the neighborhood and from other
parts of the city sat and stood in the
roped-off street and sang. The sing

The President was a keen patron

tinue his work. 4 have always been

Late President Music Lover

Under the title OF president and

torial concerning the late President
Harding. Hailing him as "a friend OF
music" the editorial said, in part:
shortly after the President was Sc
lected as the republican candidate he
granted an interview TO our Washington
representative, and on this occasion he
made clear his fondnesS for music, ex-
pressing himself in favor Of placing the

AT that time he did not feel free to
say that the bureau of education should
be expanded into department with a
cabinet official at its head. but he could
see no insurmountable obstacle in the
way of such expansion. and he appre-
ciated the advantages it offered over the
present plan. Later il was stated that

"Salomy Jane. :"
THE story OF Bret Harte's SALON.

THE story OF Bret Harte's "Salomy
Jane" opens with stagecoach
robbery.
Red Pete, the LATEST man in the
settlement, is one OF two robbers.
Red Pete's little daughter accidental
ly finds bracelet taken by her father
from one of the passengers in the
stage, and she gives 1t to Salomy
Jane. daughter of Madison Clay. This
gift paves the way for Red Pete's
conviction.
A stranger has come to town that
day, and ne is charged on circum-
stantial evidence of none too strong
a character with being Pete's partner
in crime. Just as he and Red Pete
are about to be led away to be
hanged. Salomy Jane, in a whimsical
mood, kisses the stranger goodbye.
Although Red Pete is hanged, the
stranger escapes, and Salomy Jane
can think of no one but him.
Meanwhile Salomy James father
has been carrying on private feud
with an enemy and again the stranger
is implicated in a crime.
Just how the girl and her sweet
heart are extricated from suspicion
and in turn save her father from the
hangman are pulsating elements Of
drama in the days that are gone.

He Liked The Sweetest
Story Ever Told

Wben Sophie Braslau went to
Seattle to sing in the Americanus
pageant drama she prepared an un-
usual pogram. It consisted OF an
aria from "Shanewis" and three pop
ular American songs, one of them
The Sweetest Story Ever Told"
The inclusion of The Sweetest
Story Ever Told" caused a little lift
ing OF eyebrows among those who
thought that only abstruse music was
good music. Yet Miss Braslau an
nounced this old favorite, not only
because she liked it, but because
some one else liked IL. The single
listener whom she had in mind was
to have been guest Of honor at one
performance of the pageant He was
big, simple human being who loved
the old melodies. and who. because of
the many duties which were his, had
little opportunity to hear his favorite
songs. For him especially Miss Bras
lau was to sing THE Sweetest Story
Ever Told" Yet this one auditor for
whom it was an artists supreme priv
ilege to sing never heard the old bal
lad Illness interyened and a few
days later a nation mourned him.
When Warren G.. Harding became
President many of the aspects which
had made him so many thousands of
personal friends necessarily were
hidden in background of national
and international problems. The big
hearted small-town editor had to ap-
pear before his countrymen as spokes-
man for a people. The little but i'm
portant delights Of life had to become
incidentals in the routine of q man
whose days and nights were crowded
with the questions Of country and
Of many countries.
Yet there was a music lover In the
White House. His tastes ran to the
tunes which he had heard as a boy.
Good. clear. straishtforward ,rl melodies 1enS es
these melodies was shared by his
wife, whose heroism in his last days
was an inspiration to all who were
burdened with sorrows. She, like her
husband, loved THE Sweetest Story
Ever Told" and "A Perfect pay"
Almost obscured in the whirl OF in
ternational issues that followed the
Inauguration of President Harding
were some Of the picturesque cpl
sodes Of his early life. And yet there
are some old musical amateurs In
Ohio who will recall him over the
years as a member OF the Marion
silver Cornet Band. Mr. Harding, ac-
cording to the best reports. was the
solo baritone player in this typical
American ensemble. He had not
studied the instrument. Probably
nothing seemed OF less Importance to
him than to become proficient on the
horn. But the town band needed a
baritone player. And Warren G.
Harding. the young newspaper man,
went at the technique Of baritone
playing as he went at everything else
