Public Society Clubs By Clara Mary Davis INFREQUENTLY but occa sionally somebody around our place gets to wondering why since the Standard Sym phony Hour reaches so many people and, after all, costs us a certain amount of money we shouldn't accompany it some times with a wee plug for our products or our business. Every body else, he argues, uses com mercials. We-e-11, it always develops that the spirit of Barbara Frietchie is still abroad in the land. "Who touches a hair of yon gray head (aged 13, now, and still going strong) dies like a dog . . ." So shouts the public in letters, telegrams and telephone calls which practi cally pound the table. Now, it's mighty pleasing to know the public can get excited about something you're doing. And we're always particularly pleased to know the public wants the Symphony Hour as is. For, as we've told you be fore, we never meant it to sell anything only to say "Thank you" to our friends and patrons, www The Standard Symphony Hour and its corollary, the Standard School Broadcast, are entering on a new Fall season of the finest music man can make. Every week, we hope, they'll come to your home, not in the spirit of "Gimme" but In the fairplay spirit of turn- bdouc.
