Children 25c l I I CONCERT PROVED GREATJUCCESS Music-Lovers of Mcdford Well En tertained by Miss Grace Brown and Mrs. Irene Isaacs Program a Classic One. Too Late to Glassify TIio concert Riven last night by Miss Grace Brown and Mrs. Irene Isaacs was a success from, every point o'f view. The house was well filled with the music-lovers of Hert ford, -who showod by their applause t that they were truly proud of tho exceptional musical talen of- the sis ters who are Mcdford's foreraosn musicians. Tho program was a classic one, lightened, however, by a few num bers in the second part. The main part of the program was composi tions from the German classics, and there is perhaps no test so severe to the vocalist, as a successful rendi tion of Schubert, Mozart and other adherents of the Sebastian-Bach school. And tho mnnnor in which Miss Brown rendered theso difficult compositions showed her beyond a doubt to be an artist. Tliero are miuiy of tho Italian singers that re fuse to sing a program of Gorman music. Caruso snys: "When I have lost my voice I will siri German opora, but ns long as I havo the bloom and freshness of tone I will stick to tho Italian and French mu sic." , One of the enjoyable numbers of the evening was Massenet's elegy, with Miss Ethel Crowell and her violin, together with Mrs. Isaacs, mndo an accompaniment that was charming. The three littlo ladies mndo a pretty picture that added to tho charm of Masscnot's master piece. , Ono of the surprises of tho ovc ning was Mrs. Isaacs. Wo havo heard her many tiroes boforo. She 4a always been regarded ns a fine pianist, but last night's performance ''showed plainly that sho has passed tho student period, got away from her teacher and put an individuality into her music that stamps her as an rtit. As a player of tho florid style, yon would havo to go far afield to find an equal of Mrs. Is aacs. Taking the entertainment as a WILL exchanse nearly new 5-passen-ger touring car for real estate.

It was not a question of money with him, and it was ex tremely .difficult to get him to namo any deflnito sum. Professor O'Gara has recently been promoted to Bccond in command in his department, but having started tho fight in tho valloy against fruit disease and succeeded in reducing It to n minimum, ho wishes to remain and see the finish, even at a sacrifice to himself. Mr. Allen had covered a greater portion of tho val ley and had interviewed tho principal taxpayers, orchardmen, businessmen and farmers and had found not a dis senting voice among them. "I would be ashamed," said Mr. Allen, "to offer a man of Professor O'Gara's ability the sum of $5000 a year for his services, but, owing to his interest in tho work and his do- sire to clean up the Job, ho is willing to work for that sum for us. Ho has saved this valley many times that amount since he has been with us and wo need him to finish up tho work." Keep Him at Any Cost. E. B. Hanley said: "Keep him by all means, oven if it costs $15,000 instead of $5000. Wo need him. Tho fruit industry has made tho Roguo River valloy what It Is, has advertised it everywhere. Wo aro now at tho point where we must olther go ahead or go back to where wo wore 20 years ago. Professor O'Gara Ib tho only man who can savo tho situation nt this time. He has taught us a great deal, but not all, and if the fruit Industry Is to survive, it is Impcrativo that ho bo retained." H. C. Kentner, speaking as a mer chant, said: "Wo can't afford to havo Professor O'Gara go away. I realize tho Importance of taking caro of tho fruit Industry of tho valloy perhaps as well as tho growers themselves, in asmuch ns their prosperity means tho merchant's prosperity. Every day In tho store I hear remarks concerning the Importance of keeping him, and tho expressions havo been more fro quent and moro forceful slnco tho likelihood of his departure has be come known." Vuluo of O'Gara. Mr. Potter spoko of his experience, ns Illustrating tho value of Professor O'Gara's work. Two years ago when ho and his partner, Mr. Gould, camo hero, neither of them know anything about the orchard business, but woro willing and anxious to learn. They saved their whole orchard from dis ease by the timely advice of Profossor O'Gara. lnont orchardlsts of tho valley, Mr. Hover opened the discussion by stat ing tho necessity of tho retention of Prqfossor O'Gara In order that the fruit Industry may be saved, as tho district has reached a point where tho services of such a man were absolute- strain, and the consensus of opinion (j1(J Oijmin(ltjon 0f (jHenH0. Wo or- was that tho valley needed Professor O'Gara, not only for his knowlcdgo of plant disease, but because It was nec essary, In order to onforco tho clean ing up of orchards which aro breed ing plnces for dlscaso nnd n mennco to all surrounding orchards, thnt a man be placed in chargo who is ab solutely fearless, honest and compe tent. Such a man Is Professor O'Gara. Committee Quizzed. Commissioner Owens Joined in tho discussion, and propounded many questions which wcro all promptly answered by tho committee. Mr.. uwens stated tnat nis questions woro i not asked from tho standpoint of op- position to tho roquest, but In order to secure all tho Information posal-l bio. Judge Noll romnrkod In tho courso of tho discussien: "I bollovo' tho mnn Is worth tho monoy. If tho I fruit men are put out of business wo , aro all out of business." j Coleman in Favor. County Clerk Coleman spoko Etrongly In favor of tho appropriatien: "If I wero a mombor of tho county, court, I would not hcaltnto a second in granting tho appropriation. It Is ono of tho most Important mnttors that has corn before tho board for, years. Tho $5000 will mako no appro-' clablo dlffcrenco to tho taxpayors and the resultant good will bo Immeasur able." ' A letter was read from E. V. Carter of Ashland, who rogrottod his inabil ity to, bo present, but wnrmly com mended tho move. Tho committee mndo It plain thnt j thoy woro not beforo tho board nsi beggars, but an a representative body j of taxpayers, who woro bearing their, sharo of tho burden nnd by reason of i the higher rates nt which fruit lands aro assessed perhaps n littlo moro. i Under Advisement. ! At tho conclusion of tho discussion tho court took tho matter under ad visement with tho promise to rondor n doflnito decision boforo final ad journment. I Tho doparturo of Profousor O'Gara I would bo n calamity at this tlmo, Al- though tho commercial orchard mnn liuvo been cd.icated to n point where i thoy can take caro of thomsolves In a' measure, the now comor must also J bo educated and tho ones who roftiso. to tako ndvlco from nnyono convinced of tho orror of tholr ways or forced to comply with tho law. E. B. Ilnnloy stated this morning that "thoro is just ono way out of this business, and only ono.
