A concerted effort toward the
preservation of music ami other
arts as a vital community force
ical assets, the music week is to i
the main objective of the twelfth
annual National Music week, to,
be celebrated May 5 to 11.
In conserving of the local nms-.
ical assets, the music week it to
focus interest in such matters as
keeping up the standard of music
instruction in the schools despit«'
lessened finances; the obtaining of ,
necessary instruments or other e- j
quipment for school work: an agi
tation either of the need for a1
music supervisor in the schools--
where there is none—or of more '
music instructors; and the forma-j
tion of a special chorus of «church
choir singers which may function
after music week as a permanent i
choral society.
The music week concerts are ■
not to be mere musical events, but
are to be preceded by original
musical research, later embodied in
programs illustrationg, for exam
ple, music in its relation to other
arts, such as literature, the drama,
the dance, the cinema and radio.
Similarly the music week pro
grams are to set forth the part
played by music in world history,
in religion, as an aid to work and
in leisure time.
The first movement of national
music week was set by Calvin
Coolidge.
More than 2000 cities and towns
are expected to participate in the
music week May 5 to 11, which is
sponsored by a national committee,
composed of the heads of nearly
30 leading national organizations
and by an honorary committee of
Governors, headed by President
Roosevelt.
Wimer 3-C’s Busy
Building 75 Miles
Truck Trails, Lines
CAMP WIMER — (Special)—
Dustin A. Dalrymple of Jackson
ville became a leader in this Med
ford district CCC camp when the
new ratings were announced here
this week. Dalrymple was recently
assigned to this company from a-
mong the newiy enrolled members.
Other Jacksonville boys now with
this company are Walter Ander
son, Merritt Beard. Clifton Chil
ders. Albert Johnson, Lewis Meek,
and Lloyd Norman. Camp Wimer,
a state ECW forestry camp, is
located 11 miles north of Rogue
River.
Company 964. stationed at
Wimer, are engaged in building
75 miles of truck trails and tele
phone lines which will connect
Sexton Mt., King Mt., and Battle
Mt. lookout stations with Medford
as a nerve center. When the sys
tem is complete in 1936. four north
Jackson county townships will be
brought under the fire protection
of state forester Lynn F. Crone
miller. When a fire is discovered
by a lookout on one of the three
mountains, it will be reported im
mediately by telephone to Medford,
Rogue River and Grants Pass
from which points flying squad
rons of trucks and men can im
mediately dash to the scene of the
fire.
Tom Hudson has a remarkable
cane. It is made of sections of
cows' horns of contrasting shades
strung on a spring steel rod and
turned down and polished. It is a
thing of beauty and was given to
Tom by Jesse H. Jones, head of
the RFC, when Tom worked for
that gentleman over a quarter of
a century ago in Dallas, Texas.
It reminded the writer of Jie
Waupun cane popular in Wiscon
sin half a century ago. These canes
were made of washers of sole
leather forced on a steel rod and
turned down. The head was of cop
per loaded with lead. They were
so named because the guards at
Waupun penitentiary used them
as weapons.
The writer’s brother-in-law has
a cane which is made of the jaw
bone of a whale with a whale’s
tooth for a head. It was made by
his great grandfather, a whaler
captain sailing out of Boston a
century or more ago.
