The first choral number was the psalm
CL. and the volume of sound which was
called forth at the bid of the baton wielded
by Prof. Adolf Edgren fuifihled the antici-
vations of the audience. Time chortis was
well balanced amid the manner in which the
selection was rendered spoke volumes for the
capabilities of the sitigers and the vigorous
training required to produce such unison
of execution in the short time the mommy

This was objected to by Mr. flosewater ,
who contended that some distinction should
ho made between the daily amid weekly pa.
pers. The co-operation of the dailies was
undoubtedly more valuable for advertisimig
purposes and if two passes were to be Issued
to each weekly , then the number issued to
the .daihies should be proportionately in-
creased. In thIs connection he read copies
of circuhars his department is now sending
out to the various daily and 'weekly news
papers , assuring them of the appreciation
of the department of tlmeir past services and
submitting a liberal proposition for future
exchange of courtesies.
Mr. Rosewater oleciared that there was a
ettiuhied effort on the part of certain people
to convey the Impression that time country
lurces was opposed to dealing with the He-
partmnent of Promotion and was personally
hostile to himself , lie was heartily tired
of being confronted with timis petty per-

basis and it would be exceedimigly bad policy
to stmllenly change time entire system.
