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 AIDED BY EXHIBITS •it J ‘ * - • ‘ i •• • > ■ ..2 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.

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.
