MUSIC IN JERUSALEM

The Jerusalem Musical Society would like
the gift OF grand piano. Don't all Otter
at once Yes, it is true.
There is a thriving music school Ill ert-
salem, established by Governor Ronald StorrS.
with the permission OF Cen Allenby to take
certain musicians ON vi the trenches to get
il going" Gov Storrs is very enthusiastic
about the musical education that is being
spread among the jewellers III Iersualen and
about the school as fine gong concern.
The Hebrew community has taken a great
interest in the school founded by the Eng
lsh musician and soldier, and has contribute
most OF the teachers Piano and violin are
the only instruments taught 50 lar, but the
school is young.
Gov. Storrs. who was interviewed on the
subject during brici stay in New York,
SAYS the Iertl>aiem Music Society-which
needs the grand piano-is not directly con-
nected with the school, but it, too, is doing
good work He promised that ii American
composers would send their works to him, ne
would see that they got chance At per
Torrance. Put it must be good music. We
don't want jazz and that kind OF thing Tell
them to send their best scores, especially CON
trapuntal music Md don't forget the p-
ano."
Whether it is the Bach-lo>ng disposition
of Gov Storrs which calls Tor the contra
puntal music, or whether there is a certain
titeness OF counterpart to the soul OF the
ancient East. it would be hard TO say In
any case, music education seems to have ar
rived in Jerusalem.

GOV. SMALL DENIES
| M|SUS|NG FUNDS
Declares State Was Not De.
prived of Zone Penny"
in Handling of Treasury.

BY the Associated Press.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. June S.-Denial
was made by Gov. Len Small that he
ever deprived the state of one penny
of any interest or profit resulting
from his use of public funds in an
answer filed today by his attorneys in
the. suit for accounting brought by
Attorney General Edward J. Brun-
dage
Direct denial is made by the gov
ernor that there was at any time. as
alleged in the bill of complaint. any
combination between Small as state
treasurer and Edward G. Curtis and
Vernon S. Curtis to use for their per-
sonal advantage any moneys in the
possession of the defendant as state
treasurer. The governor also AYERS
that there never existed any unlaw-
full or fraudulent plan between him.
self and the Curtis brothers to mis-
use state funds.
Admits Bank Charge.
The only material allegation of the
bill admitted by the governors an
swer is that deposits were made in
the Grant Park Bank, which the bill
of complaint alleged was fictitious
bank
To this the governor replied that
the Grant Park Bank was in existence
twenty-five years prior to 1917. when
Small became state treasurer for
the second time. and that he pursued
toward this bank the same course he
followed toward every other bank in
which state funds were placed. name
ly, that he required all banks carry
ing state funds to provide high
grade of commercial paper as collate-
raj security. He points out that the
security provided by the Grant Park
Bank could have been sold upon the
open market in Chicago. and thus the
deposits of state funds We're rendered
entirely safe.
The governor denies the allegation
that books and accounts in the otflce
of state treasurer during his term
Of office, 191T-19, were so kept as
TO conceal the fact that deposits were
made in the Grant Park Bank. lr
this connection the methods of pass
ing drafts in accounting, mainly
through the Fort Dearborn Nationa
Bank. is fully set out. He AYERS tina,
certificates of deposit were regularly
issued by the Grant Park Bank fol
all moneys received, that all were
paid in full and that they were ade'
cuately secured by collateral security
The answer directs attention to the
Armour and Swift collateral notes
which Small. as treasurer during HI!
last term, required the Grant PARK
Bank to deposit to secure state funds
adding that at the time these securi
ties were considered as highly desir'
able. He denies that any state money
during his term as treasurer wa!
loaned the packing interests or tha
any plan with Curtis or others fol
making such loans existed.

Living Prices in Munich.

From the Adventure Magazine.
In Munich it would cost about fifty
cents per day for a room with bath
In the best hotel and the same amount

There is no fixed standard for living
costs in Germany for the foreigner.
A dollar bill. of course, will go a
long way. You must consider, how
ever, that the decline of the mark
brings with it an increase in the cost
Of living.
You can spend just as much money
over there as you can here. If you
are content to live at a moderate
hotel and take your meals there, S5
TO $40 will keep you for month.
1t is impossible to state exact costs
at all cities, because rates are diff
ferent in Munich from those at Ber-
lin or Leipzig or Dresden. In smaller
towns the cost of living is only one
half of that in larger cities: because
the products of the country are avail
able and you may buy almost any
thing directly from the farmers.

VISIT SHRINE IN BARE FEET.
Tourists Entering Rangoon Pagoda
Cannot Wear Even Stockings.
ram tbe ADVENTURE MagazinI

From the Adventure Magazine.
The spectacle of wealthy American
women removing their silk stockings
in the streets of an oriental city has
attracted much attention in Rangoon
in recent weeks. The occasion for
these crowd drawing incidents is a
rule, enforced since the fall of 1920,
prohibiting footwear upon the plat
form of the Shwe Dagon pagoda. one
of the most important Buddhist
shrines in Asia.
Although the Burmans themselves
always have removed their footwear
before ascending the pagoda steps,
until recent years Europeans have
been allowed to visit the pagoda
without taking off their shoes. The
present ruling, made in connection
with the nationalist movement, re-
quires the removal OF stockings as
well as shoes.
Due to the after-war revival of the
tourist trade, about 1880 American
travellers have visited Rangoon the
last few weeks.
The Shwe Dagon. with it's great
spire of plastered gold flashing in the
sunlight for centuries, has been an
object of great veneration to thou
sands of pilgrims.
