his present political opponents fol

were doing at that time and as

great credit of the Republican party

The city-wide music week has

Music was intended for all the
people, and music week arouSes the
consciousness of the general public
to this fact as has never been done

1t expresses itself in all the as

There are particularly strong rea-
