Farewell for McClellan
H PROF. J. J. McCLELLAN
mW The Press club, pursuing a couise
B as old as the club Itself, gave a fare
H veil "jinks" for Prof. J J. McClellan
B the other night at which many of Salt
B Lake artists joined with the scribblers
B to do him honor. Pie is to leave
H shortly for a long stay In Europe to
B put another finish upon his musical
B i education, or to "recharge his batten
fl ies'1 as Harry I. A. Culraer expressed
B ij;. A tender tribute was paid to Prof.
H McClellan by Mr. Culmer, and this Is
B nearly what he said:
IB! "Our Press club has had amongst
wM its members 'more than one genius,
B but none greater than he whom we
HI honor tonight. We meet to say a torn.
B porary farewell and the wish for a
H i happy return of the beloved John J.
H f McClellan, our veriest own, whoso per-
mW sonal qualities have endeared him to
WM ( us and whose artistic abilities have
HL stampod him as one of the world's
H great masters.
B "For fifteen years he has presided
WM over the far famed Tabernacle organ,
an instalment gigantic, delicious and
unique, housed in the most wonderful
sounding board that was or ever will
be consturctod, and during that period
not less than three million people
from all parts of the world have list
ened spell-bound to this master of the
keys this magician of melody.
"Out of that endless concourse he
has brought tears to millions of eyes.
Others have brought tears to as"raany
eyes. They have been great generals
and commanders of slaughter and
wounds, bringing tears of agony and
pain; but this kind commander of
sweet sounds has only brought forth
tears of tenderness and relief relief
from the strain of the outer world,
sobs that mean but the surcease of
pain.
"How many aching hearts have been
brought to rest and quiet by the
soothing strains he has evoked; how
many dull souls have found their
awakening under the glorious pas
sion 'of his compelling touch;

how many people of our own
country have been stunned by the dis
covery, through him, that there is
genius and culture in tho west; how
many Wandering thinking men and
scholars from remote countries have
thought better of America because of
him; these measures are impossible
to compute because they are so
large.
"Looging and admiring him as I do, I
am glad that I have been chosen to
set to words the Ode to McClellan
that we all chant in our heart of
hearts."
SHRUBBERY AND THE
CHAUFFEUR.
(Christian Science Monitor.)
IN ORDER that ornamental shrub
bery interfere with a clear view
of street intersections for drivers
of trolley cars, automobiles and other
rapidly moving vehicles, it is proposed
that ornamental shrubbery generally
be removed from street corners and
other points where It may prove a hin
drance. It Is contended that while
ornamental shrubs contributed to the
city or suburb beautiful in other days
the advent of the automobile has now
made it necessary that such ornamen
tation as may obstruct a clear per
spective be done away with. This
strikes us as being every whit as un
reasonable as some of the restrictions
proposed by those who are unfriend
ly to the automobile. A now condi
tion has arisen and the thing to do,
as we regard it, is to bring about a
readjustment of other conditions so
that they will harmonize with it on
lines of common sense. The average
automobile owner and the average
automobile operator will agree with
us in holding, we are sure, that it Is
palpably the duty of the operator of
a machine to slow down on approach
ing an obstructive clump of shrubbery,
whether he believes it Is concealing
an approaching vehicle or not, and
that it is the automobile operator who,
regardless of such view obstructions,
rushes his car ahead, rather than or
namental shrubs, that ought to be
abolished.
The things that are making for a
more esthetic America, the -trees and
shrubs that lovers of the beautiful
have been struggling for years to
popularize in a material age and a
material country, the efforts that have
been put forth to restore and conserve
tho glories of nature, too long sacri
ficed to commercialism and industrial
ism, should not now be abandoned or
destroyed or neglected so that the
heedless chauffeur shall have a Dare
and barren earth before him. What
is needed Is that the person who
drives an automobile shall be a per
son possessed of ordinary judgment.
Such a person will not go flying past
a clump of shrubbery that hides his
view, or recklessly around a corner,
or wildly over a street Intersection or
along a crowded boulevard. The per
son who does not exercise good judg
ment should not be permitted to drive
a machine.
Stlckney's cigars are above criticism
of most exacting connoisseurs.
