GRANDLY GIVEN THEM BY THE
', MONMOUTH NORMAL VISITORS
j ENTERTAINED AT THE MARION
HOTEL AND GO HOME IN AUTO
MOBILES. In iptta of many local attractions,
the second of a series of meetings to
promote the establishment of public
playgrounds for children was held at
the High School assembly Wednesday
evening. President Ackerman, of the
State Normal school, at Monmouth,
came over with Senator Hawley and
. about 30 of the faculty and students,
with a class of children from the train
log school to put on folk songs and
dances, and some of the games taught
the children In playground work. Rev.
P. F. Schrock, of the First Congrega
tional church, made the opening ad
dress and heartily endorsed the un
dertaking to establish playgrounds at
Salem. Ex-Mayor Geo. F. Rodgers
made a strong plea for a better chance
for the children of the city to have an
opportunity for normal development
along modern educational lines. The
remarks of both gentlemen were well
received. The subject of "Folk Songs"
was formally presented by Miss Mln
ette Harlan, musical director of the
Normal school, as follows:
What Are Folk Songs!
Some one said: "Deep In the heart
of a people lie many wonderful and
beautiful things. Fragments of great
poetry, traditions of godlike heroeB
and legends of many a noble deed are
enshrined In song and story. Every
race has an accumulation of"tradltlon,
which, as It has passed through many
minds and been thereby unconsciously
moulded, can bo said to express the
spirit of the people, rather than that
of an Individual.
Running like a golden thread
through this mass of tradition are
many beautiful melodies; melodies of
rii elemental simplicity akin to that
of the wild flower and having a direct
ness of appeal which touches our
hearts at once. These are folk songs,
the song of a folk or people.
As to the origin: The true folk song
has traveled a long way. Its begin
ning dates back to 3000 B, C, and has
been caught up by some of Its hearers
and treasured as a dear reminder of a
happy time, Music was handed down
by transmission, and as It was sung
by the people to one another It lost
much of its original character, but In
turn gained some charactorlstlo com
mon to all the minds through which It
passed. Dimly and often Inaccurate
ly remembered It passed from genera
tion to generation unconsciously al
tered a little here and there. Gradual
ly It was perfected until every note
became golden In Its melodlo value.
Only those notes of the niolody were
retained In the popular mind which
were absolutely necessary to express
the musical Idea. All superfloiiB ones
dropped silently away. Thus Is a true
folk song; and the secret of Its won
derful appearance and heart-touching
power lies In the fact that It has been
practically composed by the spirit of a
people which Is deeper and more sin
cere than the spirit of the Individual.
Robert Schumann has said: " List
en carefully to all folk songs; they
are a storehouse of most beautiful mel
ody, and unfold to the mind the Innate
character of the different peoples."
"But who wrpte these lovely songs?"
asked Elizabeth. Reinhordt. said:
'They are not made at all ; they grow,
they fall from the clouds; they fly
over the country like gossamer, here
and there, and are sung at a thousand
places at once. We find our very own
doings and sorrows In these songs.'
It seems as If we had all helped to
make them. Therein lies the reason
for the revival of the songs: They are
taking hold of our country and will
soon be sweeping It full length from
East and West, and, If you please,
from West to East. And why Is It the
folk songs have lived until now? Be
cause In them Is pictured the life of
the heart, from great estatlc Joy to the
deepest depth of sorrow that the sym
pathetic heart can reach.
In other words, my dear friends, we
all love the folk song, because It is in
ub .around us, and It is us.
Three parts to program.
First ,a Russian song, depicting a
home scene between mother and
daughter, Miss Blanch Frldd and Miss
Florence Tate.
Second, a Scotch song, "Calle Her
rln,' 'which depicts the Scotch fisher
women, Misses Lynn, Mickelson, Ellis
and Davis.
Third, scene In an Irish home, In
troducing characters and songs of dif
ferent nations adding Misses Peery,
Stark, Dunsmore, Dunlap, Copeland.
Great Enthusiasm Prevailed.
Miss Harlan Is an enthusiastic work
er with young people and children In
music, and her remarks were received
with great approval, and the most
pleasing entertainment ever put on In
Salem was then given to an audience
of about BOO people. Principal Kirk
and Janitor Lowrey and a bunch of
high school seniors were on hand to
act as curtain raisers, and the program
was put through in fine style. The
folk songs were encored, and when a
minister's daughter, who Is a normal
school student, wound up the Irish fair
scene with nn old-fashioned Irish Jig,
the applause grew uproarous. She
was recalled, as were others, and when
Miss Gertrude Wilcox put on her
trained class of playground children,
with their games and dances, there
was no disposition to grow weary on
the part of the audience. The children
enjoyed It as much as the adults.
There was a large attendance of Sn
lem ladles and young people and chil
dren, and the normal program delight
ed them all.
Hon. P. II. D'Arcy closed the even
ing's program with a strong appeal
for better playgyround facilities for
the children of Salem. He told of the
good old days when the boys of his
time played ball where the court
house grounds are now laid off, and
enjoyed the hospitality of the old
swimming hole on North Mill creok,
where fine residences now stand.
Those days were ovor and the greater
demnnds of growing cities must be
met. Mr. D'Arcy put the meeting In
the liOBt of spirits and great results
are expected to be accomplished. At
least one piny ground will be estab
lished In this city this summemr, and
an effort will be made to secure the
same In each district of the city.
Meet Friday N ight.
The playground extension workers
will meet on Friday evening at the
Englowood school where a fine pro
gram will be put on for the neighbor
hood. - Mrs. Wheelock, musical di
rector of the Salem public schools,
will put on a program of children's
musical exercises at the high school
assembly on Saturday night of thlB
week. A committee will be organized
this week to finance the playgrounds
movement.

ALL FAVOR
PURCHASING
THE PLANT
VARIOUS MEETINGS WHILE
SHOWING A DIFFERENCE OF
OPINION AS TO METHODS,
SHOW SENTIMENT IN FAVOR OF
CITY OWNING THE WATER
PLANT.
Another water meeting was held
last night at the city hall and it now
appears as though there will be no
more such meetings, at least for the
present Chairman Itigdon of the
special water committee, decided Inst
night that on account of the luck of
Interest In such meetings, that it was
useless to call an more. At the meet
ing last night of First ward citizens,
less than a dozen persons attended,
the sentiment of that meeting beini;
ti use all honorable means to ac
quire the waterworks by agreement
or arbitration, and although the vole
was not unanimous, It passed by a
good majority.
Mr. Rlgdon Is of the opinion that
an election must be called to vote on
the question of bonds before condelil
natlon proceedings can be commenced
and with this thought In mind it is
his Intention to make a report next
Monday night to the council, favoring
such a step.
While not discouraged over the re
sult of the meetings held In the var
ious wards, Mr. Rlgdon feels that
proper Interest has not been luken
In the matter. A question of so
much importance as that before the
ptople should have the carefd con
sideration of every citizen, who
should let his views be known and
the meetings were for this purposa.
At some of the meetings a large mm -ber
were present, and the sentiment
was to acquire the water works; but
at most of them the plan of arbitra
tion as championed by Alderman H. O.
White, waS favored. At all, the senti
ment was almost unanimous In fnvor
of purchase, the only difference be
ing the method to be pursued.
TOMORROW
CIRCUS BAY
If! SALEM
The Sclls-Floto Conrolldated Cir
cus, which comes here tomorrow is
a combination of two of the most pop
ular bIiows which have heretofore
toured this country. For many years
now and almost at the same time
each season, this attraction has vlBlt
ed this city and it can be truly stated
that at no time have they given a
performance which has not been fully
up to the highest Btandard set by the
biggest traveling tent shows and
thoroughly satisfying In every way.
This season tho management prem
ises to bring back a circus which Is
greatly enlarged and possessing many
new features heretofore unknown to
the sawdust ring or hippodrome track.
These will embrace a horse that goes
up In a balloon, a man shot from the
mouth of a loaded cannon, 40 clowns,
the Troupe De Louvre In poasog In
mnrble, the Rhods Royal Company of
educated horses, Mlos Emma flick
nry, greatest of all equestriennes, the
Onliiranio Sisters, an elephant which
runs a race with a pony, thoroughly
schooled hunters in high Jumping
foals, tho Smith Troupe in a very
novel revolving trapeze act, the fa
mous educated elephants which have
no superiors, and added to all of this
will bo the conventional fea'uros of
the circus which have pleased and de
lighted thousand from the bi'dnivug
of time.
The historic street parade, without
which even a circus of this magni
tude would not be complete,' has been
announced to commence at 10:30 to
morrow morning. This will give
prospective patrons an opportunity of
Judging the consequence of the Sells
Floto circus. It might be added that
even the parado Itself will present
ninny novel features.
The circus will arrive here on three
special trains and will probably be
gin to unload about daylight, and
long beforo most of the children arc
out of bed.
The regular ticket wagons will be
opened on the grounds as early as
9:00 o'clock so that those who wish
to secure tickets without getting In
the crush may do go. '
The management further an
nounces that their policy of popular
prices will remain the same as In
augurated three years go. Twenty-

ROTH COULD NOT
LIVE ON THE SALARY
San Francisco, Ma 29. Because
both could not live on one salary of
$4 a week earned In a bakery and
both repudiated a life of shame, Til
lie Calden is dead here today, and
her companion, Catherine Anderson,
Is recovering from an unsuccessful
attempt to drown herself in the bay.
The two young girls arrived here
recently from Finland. Miss Ander
son frankly admitted that she and
Miss Calden had formed a suicide pact.
"Tlllle is better off, I guess,"
sobbed Miss Anderson in the hospi
tal. "When we came here we thought
there would be plenty of work for
willing girls, but we found we were
wrong. It was $4 a week In a bakery
or ease and plenty with disgrace.
What can I do now? Go back to the
bakery? I guess they will take me
tack."
