With High Success by Children of
Immaculate Conception School.

That vessel Of comic opera fame,
III M. s. Pinafore," designed and
equipped melodiously and cleverly by
those master craftsmen, Gilbert and
Sullivan. set sail with great success
at the Immaculate Conception School
last night to the enthusiastic cheers
of a large audience. Harry Wheaton
Howard was the guiding spirit of the
occasion and the choir boys and girls
sang we'll and seemed to get the spirit
of the work remarkably well.
Especially good was Florence Yo-
cum, the youthful prima donna of
this group of ambitious young anna:
teurs. In the role of the charming
Josephine, Miss Yocum was particular
ly pleasing. Her voice is naturally
lovely and seems to be constantly i'm.
proving. Frederick Nolan, perhaps
the most gifted dramatically of the
youthful group. was another outstand
ing character as Dick Deadeye.
Irene Bontz, the leading dancer OF
the organization, gave fine sailors
hornpipe that was received with
hearty applause.
The chorus of uncle and cousins and
aunts sang the old music in delightful
fresh voices. All the roles were well
taken, and it is anticipated that an
other large audience will gather for
the second performance Of this work
by the boys and girls at the school to
night at o'clock.
Thursday and Friday nights. Mr.
Howard's own operetta, Rose of the
Prairie" will be presented.

NJ u S &c
NOrdica Clubs Concert.

Walter L. Holt, who has been eS-
tablished here for some time as an
authority on the fretted instrument,
and who presented a group of about
100 students in three distinct clubs
in his twenty-seventh annual recital,
is a musician who has done much
in comparatively untried field in
Washington. To those who are con-
slant concertgoerS, yet hear little
music on fretted instruments that
does not suggest an amorous Span
lard or a hula hula dancer on the
beach at Waikiki, Mr.. Holt's program
and it's presentation is a genuine rev.
elation. He uses transcriptionS of the
best there is in classical music, not
only familiar, comparatively simple
melodies but ambitious orchestral
works, and presents them effectively.
1t is small wonder that the large
ballroom of the Raleigh Hotel was
filled to capacity last night with sew
eral hundred people to hear this
latest program.
The most pretentious work gwen
was LISTS LES Preludes," which
will be heard in orchestra form at
Polls this afternoon as played by the
Washington Symphony Ochestra. Al
though the arrangement as made by
B. w. De Loss for mandolin ana
guitar orchestra seems clever piece
of work, the fretted instruments hard
lv are equal to the task of producing
the tremendous effect that the com
poser intended in this work. which
deals with the basic theme of life as
a series of preludes to death.
The fretted instruments seem more
in their element in pastel tone poems.
If a transcription of Richard Strauss
It'll Eulen Spiegel' were possible. the
singing quality of these instruments,
il would seem. might be extremely ef-
fectiye. The overture to Nerdi's La
Evening star., 1926-04-20

F'orza del Destino," which opened the
program, was remarkably fine. There
was a delightful harpsichord quality
that suggested that Mozart and Bach
should be composers whose works
could be used to advantage by these
instrumentalistS. A theme of hymn
like chant quality also was emphasized
in the Verdi work that usually escapes
sion.
itself graciously to adaptation for
fretted instruments was Tschaikow-
skis "Andante Cantabile," from
String Quartet, Opus H." This num-
Der as presented by Mr.. De Loss and
r. A. Koontz, mandolin players; Philip
F'loria, tenor mandola, and Raymond
A Hart, mando-cello, was the high
light of the evening, judging both from
music. Interpretation and the apprecia-
ton of the audience. Boisdeffre's AT
the Brook" was the other attractive
quartet number.
The Banjo Club played a "Popu'
lar Medley" as arranged by Mr.. De
Loss, and Fred j. Bacon. played his
own "Silver Bell March," his arrange.
ment of a medley of Southern airs.
and Beethovens "Minuet in g." He
was enthusiastically received.
Another soloist was Annabel Bird,
who played two Hawaiian guitar
numbers with accompaniment by Mr..
Holt. She seemed quite dexterous
and got some lovely rounded notes
| from her instrument. Alice e. Hill
and Charles A. Conrard gave Drdla
duet and encore Elizabeth Stewart,
soprano, accompanied at the piano by
Burrus Williams, was the only vocal
ist. She has a sweet lyric voice with
pleasing pianissimo tones, but not yet
quite sure in some of her louder high
notes,
The final group of the evening was
the Nordica Guitar and Ukulele Club,
which numbered several youngsters
who seemed hardly in their teens.
Their group of three selections was
heartily received and seemed we'll
done. with clean, decisive attacks,
good rhythm and fine teamwork .

Particulars About
State Employees

Statements are frequently made
either in ignorance or falsely, that
the state Of Arizona has several
thousand employees on the pay roll
Such, however. Is not the case.
The total number Of persons en-
ployed by the state, for all pur-
poses, exclusive Of the educational
institutions and the highway de-
partment, is 607.
The average number Of employees
of the Arizona highway department.
exclusive Of contractors, is about
ESQ.
The number Of faculty members
and employees at the university, the
Tempe Teachers college, the north
ern Arizona Teachers college, and
the Deaf, Dumb and Blind school,
Is 619.
It will therefore be seen that
these four institutions employ as
many persons as all other depart
ments of the state, not including
the highway department.
The total number of persons en-
ployed at the state insane asylum
to take care of 672 inmates is Il.
1t must be remembered that this
institution requires nurses and
guards to be on duty "a hours a
day, so three shifts of employees
are necessary.
The total number Of employees
at the state penitentiary to guard
an average of $50 prisoners "a hours
day is 33. This institution is on
a. three shift basis for employees
also.
The total number of employees
at the Pioneers home to care for
rs guests is 49,
Fhe total number Of employees at
the State Industrial school, which
also requires "a hour service, is 49,
The agricultural and livestock in
dustries utilize the services of 40
Of the 607 state employees In the
work Of eradicating tuberculosis in
cattle, in the offices of the livestock
and sheep sanitary boards, of the
state veterinary, Of the commission
OF agriculture and horticulture, of
the dairy commission, and the
effice Of the force to eradicate pre-
datory animals and injurious re-
dents. A considerable percentage
of these employees work in CO.
operation with the federal govern
ment and are chosen by the gov
eminent.
Work being performed by the
United States government and paid
for in part by the state OF Ari-
zOna in connection with stream
gauging and the investigation Of
the possibility OF the development
Of the Colorado river, accounts for
4S of the state employees.
The supreme court and the county
courts use 25 of the total number
OF state employees.

pense with and how much would
be saved in taxes by doing with
out them?
