TIMES MONDAY MUSIC.
OUR FIRST fine
SING SONG"
BY JESSIE MacBRIDE

=
A "Sing Song''-an innovation
was q big success at Wilson Nor.
NAL School recently. Eighteen orig
final songs, with words and melo-
dies absolutely new, have been
composed by students Of the school
under the direction Of Bernice
Randall Angelica, director Of music.
Mrs. Angelica urged that some
s'nchool songs" be written, alma
matters, knocks, serious songs,
humorous songs, and the result was
astonishing. They also produced
eight parodies and one or two
~pop" songs.
Students and teachers met one
afternoon to hear them, with each
section presenting its song for the
rest OF the school. There were
three judges, Mrs. Frank Byram,
Edith B. Athey and William G.
Pierson from WCAP.
The first honor went to Marie
Miller Of section BIS: second place
TO Rosemary Martin of 13BK "a
kindergarten student), whose words
were written by Gertrude Niemeyer;
third mention to Dora Currfe on
an alma Mater Song"
Goucher College has had great
success with these ''Sing Songs"
Mrs. Angelica says that never has
anything generated such splendid
school spirit as this challenge to-
make songs" There was q fervor
and warmth OF enthusiasm almost
Incredible.
'sThat indeflnable spirit OF youth
was I'm the air. It's q great move
ment that Is only just beginning.
Here's to the Wilson Normal an
nuaI Sing Song!-as q big move
ment In the Washington public
schools.

TOM MARQUAM FOR

 My hat is in the ring" declared Tom.
 Yes, Tom, but wasn't it in the ring when Charlie Wilcox democrat of Valdez introduced his bill to repeal our primary laws? We were not quite so innocent as not to know the real purpose of Char lies. Your nomination has been the sole object of John w. Troy, Tom Donohoe, Charlie Wilcox and such Democrats, as we'll as R. E. Robertson, H. L. Faulkner and many others, who being ashamed to call themselves Democrats, claim to be Republicans.
 How was this "request" engin- eered?
 On February 18th last, the bi partisans of Juneau held a secret meeting in the city hall of Juneau, for the mother of the proposed child was now heavy having carried the political baby for nigh unto a year. R. E Robertson was the attending physician. "Stroller" White acted as grandma. H. L. Faulkner held the bed-pan as usual, while Mayor J. J. Corners acted as nurse, and there was then borned unto them this "Marquam for-Delegate" child without father. At least no one yet has come forward to claim it's pattern ity.
 They then prepared long wind ed christening statement, setting forth the many virtues of the brat, demanded in the name of public virtue that the recent attacks upon our commonwealth BY suppressed grand jury reports and the Wash ington Methodist preacher be de- nounced in fitting billingsgate, and that the virtuous Tom be "called" to carry the banner of civic virtue. good government and law enforce ment to Congress.

They thinl then that all the Democrats an many Republicans will vote fol Tom, who is such regular republican that he dare not ente the party primaries, but will TUT as an Independent to beat who ever represents the Republican, ticket.
 Toms reply indicates that hd has reformed and reads; "I would indeed ungrateful if I did no express my appreciation of the| compliment implied by the action of the Independent Citizens of Juneau in extending me an invit1 ation to become their candidate for Delegate to Congress, pledging| their support. Your wire, together with many other communications of like import from other parts of the Territory, has induced me to put aside my natural (hear hearD disinclination to become an office seeker and to comply with your request. My hat is in the ring and it is there to stay. Should victory perch upon our banner, I can assure you and the members of your club that the people of Alaska will never have the occasion through any act of mine to lombard Washington with telegrams in order to uphold the fair name and good reputation of our Territory"

 Up around Fairbanks, the brat has been very busy generating spontaneous" calls and demands that he answer "the call of duty". Joe Ulmer, a candidate for the Legislature on the Republican Ticket, is one of the most active in getting this Independent Candid ate to run against any regular Republican that might run. Joe to the cannery baby, for Joe has promised to "deliver' all the votes in the Ketchikan district one time lived around Ketchikan.
 Such a baby, born in the woods as 1t were, of course is the kind that appeals to John w. Troy who now declares (why should any Democrat worry so) that "His candidacy is certain to appeal to conservatives of all political beliefs. He is a regular Republi can in everything that the term implies. His candidacy as an inde pendent marks the initial step of his party to free itself from the domination of the Sutherland Paul alliance which has delivered it to the radicals for the past four years. As such it will be widely supported throughout the Territory, for until it is free from that domination the party is Re- publican in name only"

rosy days of 1914. This year 1t
should be even better. All the
stalwarts are back and they will
be helped by some good incoming
material.

Last season Gray won 10 out OF

Slim Harriss, winer of 10 games
last season, has acquired the
aplomb and confidence OF a star
and ought to repeat.
Everybody looks for reformation
in the left handler ranks. Lefty
Grove, skittish at times last year,
is looking better and apparently
learning control.
WaIberg pitched far better than
his record indicates and he ought
to be helpful and there is every
reason to believe that Heimach has
recovered from his injury. Baum.
gartner never looked better. An.
other southpaw comes in 33-year'

spectators down in Fort Myers with
his impressive flinging.

The honor that went to Columbia
when Roland was selected a. q
walker Cup player Is just q fitting
reward for the "golfiest" club in the
city. Columbia has q string OF
steady golfers who play daily.
There il always activity in the
grin and locker rooms. For years
Columbia has stressed golf. while
not neglecting the other things that
are supposed to be IN the curri-
culum Of country club. The cIup
members figure that golf Is the
major attraction OF the cluD ana
they therefore very properly spend
most Of the clubs money on the
course.
Freddy Mcleod, recently APP
pointed custodian Of the golf
course i'm addition TO being the
club professional, has decreed that
the eighteenth green, scene OF
many a bitter ending, shall be
changed.
The encomiums that he earned
through the single Improvement
were loud and long and lingering.
The bunker that used to grace
the green to catch slices has been
done away with. The confoundins
that made the 18th D
putting hazard OF the first magni-
tude have been ironed out and two
deep traps have been placed hole
high to catch hooks.
The entire green. one OF the
largest on the course, has been re-
sodded and by the time for playing
use will be in fine condition.
Fourteen, the hole that has green
right across from the 18th green.
has been changed only slightly.
Freddie decided that the green
should be protected and also the
players, by providing bunker, or
