OVER HUNDRED YOUNG INDIANS
ATTEND FORT APACHE SCHOOL

Something like III young Indian
children were brought in to Holbrook
from the Navajo Indian reservation
at Ganado Monday, in charge Of Su-
perintendent Parquette. They re-
NAMED in the hotels over night and
were taken up to the Theodore Roose-
velt Indian school the following morn
ing by Dave Udall in his automobiles.
The young Indians are to attend the
school that the government has con-
verted from the old Fort Apache.
Superintendent r. L. L. Daniel
brought into Holbrook about 80 young
Indians from the Hopi Indian reserya-
tion the day following, and these were
taken up to the school as well. Both
lots of young Indians are a bright
bunch, and it goes without saying
they will learn rapidly under the tute-
lage of Uncle Sam.-Holbrook Trib-

APACHES AT WORK!

Two hundred Apache indians have
furnished most Of the manual labor
needed on the new Clifton-Springer-
vile highway through the rugged
mountains north of Clifton. The road
now is ready. for use to point about
SO miles distant, carried on an eleya-
tion Of 8400 feet.
In the next ten miles will be reach
ed an elevation Of 9400 feet, believed
to be the highest point attained by
any Arizona highway. Shows are
heavy and it is expected that con-
struction will have to- be abandoned
for the season in November. So there
Is little expectation that the highway
will be complete before the fall Of
1926.

PACT OR DEMOCRATS WILL
HAVE TO PACK THEIR GRIPS

The Colorado River compact as an
issue has been definitely settled in
Coconino county.
Col. Fred S. Breen, republican, and
pro-co- -packist, has administered a de-
cisive defeat to his democratic oppon-
ent. The compact was the main fac
tor of the special election in which
Breen was named as a successor to
Senator Hugh Campbell, deceased.
This means that Coconino county,
which was overwhelmingly democratic
in the last election, has adopted the
pact.
Regardless of their political affilia-
ton this shows that the people of that
county WANTED THE COLORADO
RIVER COMPACT as it was original
ly written.
Is fact, the pact viii be the issue in
the election next year, unless a special
session Of the legislature is called by
the governor and the pact is adopted
before that time.
There are times in the history of
every state when politics cease to be
the controlling factor and the people
rise up and demand certain things
which mean much for the welfare of
the commonwealth. Arizona is now
facing one of these periods. The peo-
pie are doing their thinking
Many democratic readers favor the
Colorado river compact. Congress-
man Carl Hayden openly declared
months ago IN favor of it, as well as
other prominent men Of the demo-
cratic party.
The issue, therefore, is not demo-
cratic nor is it republican. 1t is pro-
pact and anti-pact. How do you
stand ?-Nogales Herald.

pP PEsCOTT HIGH SCHOOL BOYS
WANT TO COME TO FLAGSTAFF

The sterner sex will not be heavily
renresented in the graduating class at
Prescott high school next June unless
the hazers decide to accept the school
boards discipline and return to school
under the conditions imposed. The
senior class now stands at 80, OF
whom 8 are boys. About half OF the
bows who left the school at the be-
ginning Of the term would have been
members of the class. The 1924 class,
however, will be larger than the ay-
erage graduating class.
Some of the boys who defied the
orders of the board and engaged IN
the task of shearing the locks of the
freshmen are planning to go to Flag
staff normal when it opens. Two or
these boys have already applied for
their credits, Superintendent Martin
said.
The bows are firm in their deter
rnination to enter school with no re-
structions or not at all, it IS SAID,
while the school board is equally de-
termined 10 stand by its rules and dis
cipIine those boys who violated the
hazing edict. 1t was rurnored tliat
several Of the boys who are con the
outside 2 are planning to ask for their
credits and transfer to Flagstaff.
The removal of these boys will have
a serious effect on the school athletic
program, it is feared, and may result
in Prescott dropping backward in in
terscholastic events.
Al member of the school board ex-
pressed the opinion that several Of the
boys would come back into the fold,
rather than transfer to Flagstaff, or
give up their graduation. Even 50,
however, the athletic and social life
Of the school will be curtailed, as the
punishments decided upon by the
board, it was said, would be carried
out to the letter.-Prescott Courier.

INVITE VETS To
HEAR CHORAL
SOCIETY
Motel Organization Prepares
70 Give Benefit Concert
Tonight.

Eeventy-five ex-service men from
Walter Reed Hospital have accepted
the invitation to attend the benefit
concert to be given by the Motel
Choral Society at Memorial COntin-
entail Hall tonight.
Invitations also have been .ex-
tended to a number OF patients at
the National Blind Library. 1900
% street. through Miss Giffen. Six
Boy Scouts win act as ushers at
tonight's concert.
In view Of the regulations OF the
Daughters Of the American Rev0Iu-
ton no tickets are permitted to be
sold at the door of the hall. All
tickets must be purchased at
Drops, or from members Of the
society. Observation, of this request
will avoid possible embarrassment,
officials said.
The concert will be for the bene-
fit of the Foundlings' Home and
the Summer Camp for Babies
The concerts OF the Motel Choral
Society. now in it's twelfth season,
are well remembered by the music
lovers Of Washington.
Artistically, the presentation of
it's programs stands for a school
Of subjective choral singing, evolv.
ing through definite technique and
voice adjustments TO the polished
phrase and to the repressive and
beautiful element Of tone, in con.
trast to its more rugged sorority
and intensity. The attainment of
these more delicate effects would
seem to encourage the selection OF
inspirational moments Of shorter
compositions rather than the some
times monotonous continuity Of an
individual longer work. Considera.
ton liz also given to the literary
value OF text and to the subdued
lighting Of the hall.
The Motel Choral Society presents
the program tonight as peculiarly
sensitive to these ideals. It includes
two contrasting motets Of impress
sive significance by Vittoria 154O-
1909, List (1811-1886;. two choruses
of evening. suggestive Of the tran
guilty of twilight awakened
through vision, hearing and the
sense of perfume; To the Evening
Star, for female voices. words by
the English mystic. William Blake:
Star That Bringest Home the Bee,
by s. Coleridge-T Taylor; two choruses
by Granville BantocK; On Himalay,
an exquisite setting Of Shelley's
1dylle, and The Tiger, powerful In
moods and contrasts; Joshua, as a
finale, by the Russian composer,
Moussorgsky. is a descriptive chorus
of the martial note of battle, the
paean of victory, and the homage
and prayers Of his people.

Composer OF Operas
Courted Music By
Drinking Coffee

The Italian composer Doni.
zetti courted inspiration by q
means which proved so injuri-
Gus that it caused the prenna-
ture decay of his faculties.
He was accustomed to shut
himself in q room with guam
tity of music paper, pens and
ink and three or four pots Of
strong coffee. He would then
begin to write and drink, and
when this supply Of coffee was
exhausted he would order more
and continue to drink it as
long as he wrote.
He asserted that the coffee
was necessary for his inspira-
ton. The result of this per-
nicious habit was a yellow,
parchment-like complexion with
lips almost jet black and a
nervous system which soon
caused his breakdown and
death. Is.

Boys Harmonica Club
Arouses Interest
In Melody

Public School 81, in the Bronx,
New York city, boasts q unique
organization, the Harmonica
Club, composed Of boys who play
the harmonica. The membership
6f the club numbers about 80.
It is said several Of the boys
can play several songs on the
harmonica, which is also known
as the mouth organ or Pans
pipes. The club plans to give =
concert later in the season.
The Harmonica Club was or
ganiEed at the suggestion Of the
principal. Edward r. Mcguire, to
arouse interest in music among
the students. It is believed the
club will stimulate interest in
more advanced instruments than
the harmonica and help to bring
the students in closer touch with
music.

HUMAN WRECKS
ENCOURAGED
BY MUSIC
Results OF Concerts at RoWery
Mission Discussed by Pastor
IN Charge Of Work.

The Bowery Mission, one OF the
largest missions on New York's
famous Bowery, has for tWenty-one
years been giving weekly concerts
for the benefit OF the human dere-
lets who attend It's meetings.
I'm our work music plays q great
part" said DR.. Hallimond, super
intendent OF the mission. The
men who come to us are fighting q
big fight. To them music is as
stimulating as to soldiers on g
battlefield. They come to us. many
OF them, tired; discouraged, dis.
heartened. The concerts cheer them.
the music renews their courage; It
gives them q great uplift.
Music liberates the Imagination.
It makes q man dream dreams and
see visions. 1t renews hope. It Is
q proved fact that concerts have
g spiritual and therapeutic value
in our work.
No Appeal in Jazz.
Strangely enough Jazz and popu-
lar music make no appeal to the
thousands Of down and outs" who
drift into the Bowery Mission.
They prefer to hear the great
classics and seem to appreciate and
~ aA1GtpSA ny pEO8K61nS Lk1aC WOu4u
appeal to thorough musicians.
To a typical Bowery Mission au.
dience, 1t has been noticed, the
subtle strains OF the violin and the
mellow notes Of the piano make q
stronger appeal than the. voice and
words. no matter how beautiful.
Music is the one thing one can
give without being patronizing,'
DIR. HaIIimond explained.
Music Not Charity.
No matter how kindly ana tact.
fully one gives food, clothing,
money or shelter there Is always
the suggestion Of charity in gift
to the unfortunate. Not so with
music. It is a gift that can be
given to rich and poor alike. Then,
too, music is impartial: for 1t Is q
direct gift to everyone in a large
audience. And for those two rea-
sons. II for no others, it has in.
estimable value in the work OF the
mission"
AT present DR.. Hallimond has
more than 500 famous names on his
list Of great artists who have given
music 70 the men at the BoWery
Mission and with few exceptions
those who have been there have
asked to be permitted to come

PARENTS
STFLE ART
OF PUPILS
Il. lie Roy Lewis Pleads for
Encouragement Of Young
Music Students.

Are parents, by their lack Of APP.
preciative understanding, responsible
for destroying the musical ambitions
Of their offspring?
I'll. LIE Roy Lewis, washington
vocal teacher. believes they, are. In
the following communication to the
Music Editor Of The Washington
Times, Mr.. Lewis sets forth his
views on the subject:
How often are teachers Of artistic
subjects called upon to explain to
their pupils and students questions
pertaining to the lack OF appreciative
understanding on the part OF their
parents OF their ambitions and
talents?
II speak particularly OF the stu.
dent who wishes to follow an artistic
musical career, especially the voice.
for 1t seems that only those who are
unusually gifted with this great gift
that God alone can bestow seem to
meet with this disastrous situation In
their homes.
''Why viii q father or mother,
when e. son or daughter wishes TO
learn, persist in destroying that am
bition with ugly and harsh criticisms
thinly yelled, sometimes, as 'puns?'
Genius and talent alike gnaw at
the doors of ambition In the heart
Of the individual, and nothing but
individual experience through years
Of study and careful practice can
open the door and the developed
talents give vent to the expressions
of it's soul in the world in which 1t
came to perform.
So all talk on the part of parents
or relatives is useless to try to dig
courage ambition in the son and
daughter for the child will succeed
IN spite Of the parents.
My opinion is that the average
parents of talented people know abso:
lutely nothing Of music or it's value
to the life Of the individual possess
ing the talent.
Let us all give to our talented
relatives encouragement in spiritual
and financial support. Try in every
way to help make easier the path
which leads to q road of success. and
not be guilty of placing one stone
for the weary feet to stumble over.
Much talent lies dormant in
American homes due to discouraging
child or young person in its gifted
and chosen career"

There are less than bakers dozen
OF really worthwhile Lenten can
tatas within the range of the average

written not by American composers,
but by Englishmen.
It is, therefore, a distinct relief to
find that two Americana and (won-

which breathes the penitential spirit
0f Lent without becoming stodgy.
They have named it 1.-THE Atone

These gifted Washingtonians are
r. Deane Shure and Rossel Edward
Mitchell. Mr.. Mitchell has carefully
selected from Holy Writ an excellent
assortment Of Scriptural texts,
around which he has built poetry
admirably telling the story Of the last
