WESTERN MUSIC HAS
FOOTHOLD IN JAPAN
The demand in Japan for nil kinds
of western classical musicals in
striking contrast to the condition in
China, Where native music is still pre
eminent and’ where foreign melodies,
either classic or jazz are not welcomed,
declared a representative of an Amer
ican gramnphone company, after com
pleting a tour of the Far East re
cently.
Up until 30 years ago, he said, the
Japanese were almost entirely ig
norant of foreign music, but during
this time they have rapidly become
i educated to it and now there is a
large demand for music by Beethoven,
Mozart, Brahms and Wagner. This ap
preciation of western music is genuine
and not the result merely to be like
other countries, it is agreed.
Foreign music, whether rendered h.v
local artists or those from abroad, is
received with groat enthusiasm. The
appearance of stars such as Galli-
C.urci, Elman and Heifetz always
.bring packed, houses, while many are
turned away when visiting opera com
panies play “Carmen” or “Aida.”
WORK OF EDUCATION

The Department of Agriculture is
taking the government to the people
in a, way that will give a better under
standing of v;hat Jim department is at
tempting to do in bettering agricul
tural and home conditions, says the
Washington Star. Requests have been
received ’ f I*olll approximately fifty
state fairs and thirty Interstate fairs
for exhibits of some phase of the
department’s work.
By means of pictures, diagrams,
charts and motion pictures the vari
ous exhibits are giving demonstra
tions of the best methods in live stock
arid- poultry falsing, dairying, forestry,
marketing, road development, boys’
and girls’ club work and other activ
ities. The various exhibits total from
1,000 to 1,400 square feet each and
make an impressive demonstration of
Uncle Sam’s interest in his children.
Approximately twenty carloads of ex
hibits were sent out altogether to
make the'circuits of the various fairs
which requested them.
Wounded Indian Brave
Made Quick Recovery
The neighborhood was resounding
with blood-curdling yells as the young
braves of the warpath engaged in a
heavy Indian battle. When one of
the young warriors was officially shot
by the other side he must “play dead”
and cease his hostilities until one or
the other side had vanquished their
enemy. •
'■’Boom, boom, you’re dead,’’ one
youngster shouted to a brave on the
other side.
The victim ceased bis activities, but
it was too' much to sit on the side
lines and watch the others.
“Hy, you’re dead; I shot, you a min
ute- ago.”
“Yes, I know, hut I’ve been to the
hospital since then,” he shouted, as
he plunged into the Imaginary smoke
and heat of battle again.
Other Timet, Other Manners
They were looking through an old
b6ok of snapshots, the mother and her
two little girls, and they stopped at
a lecture bf the mother, taken at the
age of sixteen, in all the glory of long
skirts, tight high collar, and hard
rolled porppadoured hair. The mother,
tenderly reminiscent, looked at the
picture with a fond smile for the girl
she used to be, and waited with in
terest the comments of her small
daughters. Then up spoke Ann, the
eider, “Gosh, mother, it’s a wonder
anybody married you!”
Prof. Dunlap of Johns Hopkins Un
iversity believes that future wars are
inevitable , If the earth’s population
continues to increase at its present
rate.
Most of us get a kick out of life,
but from behind.
