The jobs of nldermen and mayor, By MILDRED BYNON j The worth and .quality of an or- j phentra depends upon the proper balance of three things. First, the excellence of the personnel; sec- j ond. the number of years of en semble playing, and third, the char- j acter and worth of the conductor. ( The Philharmonic Orchestra 01. Los Angeles has been fortunate In these three things. To begin with W. A. Clark. Jr., founder of the or canization. Instructed the late Wal ter Henry Rothwell that only the finest musicians were to be sel ected for his hand. He gave this great conductor a free-hand In hi selection of men. For more than ten years this organization hs been playing together an a unit and It has not only profited by the master-hand of William Henry Rothwell, but more than a dozen of the most distinguished living conductors have at some time or other played upon this respective Instrument. In Rothwell, who con ducted the orchestra the first eight years of Its artistic life, the orches tra was fortunate lu having a most distinguished and really great or chestral builder. The results of this unity of achievement and pur pose has produced one of the first class orchesras of tho world and the great conductors who have led this orchestra on many occasions have frankly rated It one of the erontest now in existence. When I the orrhestra is heard here It will be under the direction of Alfred Hertz, who Is thoroughly In sym pathy with the idenls of W. A. Clark. Jr.. In making this orchestrn one of the chief artistic assets of the West. . $ & Mrs. J. Erwln Page was hostess Thursday to the Garden Valley Wo men's club at her country home.

FLOOD WATERS OF MISSISSIPPI ARE STARTING TO DROP (AwenefatM 'r?w Iutw Wir) ST. LOl'IS. Mo., April 29. Troubled waters have moved down the Mississippi, transferring the strain from levees In the Quincy, III., territory to the strength from St. Louis to Cairo. In its muddy movement toward the gulf It has lost some of Its menace. The river's level was two feet below the top of the lowest dike between Chester and Cairo, engin eers for the Missouri Pacific rail way reported. A break in the south Grand Tower levee system Saturday has covered 24 square mues wan 1 the lowest on record, averaging only 7c to 13c per quart in the larger consuming markets. Acre age is slightly reduced this year and. If average yield per acre is no greater than the rather moderate 1928 figure of 1.C00 quarts, the total crop should not be much In excess of the market requirements. Most or the difficulties hist year resulted from the large acreage, the record-breaking production and the serious concentration of ship ments during last of May nnd early June. A total of nearly 3,500 cars during the seven days ending June 2 probably established a new high record for strawberry movement. More than 11,000 cars were shipped between May 13 and June 1, l!28. This was about 60 per cent of the are much sought, tne citi zens taking a certain pride In aee lnr how well thev may serve the city. Candidates for mayor have spent as,, much as $500 in their campaigns for mayor. Donald J. McFerren, Hon or ttie town's1 first mayor, retired from office this week, nnd the council solemnly anproved his hill of 50 cents for the year's mayoral services.
