The Philharmonic Society has met the

only five concerts during the coming

Theatrical managers and owners de

t has been decided to try giving the

because of the tremendous expense and

Not Monoy-Mnhlng Ilody
,'YThe people of Philadelphia should
mot lose sight of the fart that the
Philharmonic Society is not a money
making proposition by any manner of
means. Its purpose and work Is purely
educational, namely, within reach of
those who otherwise would havo no
opportunity to enjoy It
"Last year tho membership fee, en
titling the music Ioers to ndmlsiinn
to our five symphony concerts, was $.".
The actual cost to the society, per

will go on Jast the same. In all prob
ability It will be necessary to Increase
the cost of membership slightly, as the
board of directors cannot see its way
clear to overburden the guarantors and
overtax their generosity. This, how
ever, is certain! no matter what the
increase, the proportion of the fco paid
by the memburs and the actual cost of
the concert per head to the society
will rtmnln the snme. Perhaps the dif
ference will bo greater. In other words,
the members again will get tho concerts
for half of the actual value, or less.
"Tboro is no truth In tho report,"
Dr. Iljrsh continued, "thnt tho number
of rehearsals will be cut down a pro
cedure which would lower tho stand
ard of tbe performances. Tho cus
tomary number of rehearsals will be
held preparatory to each concort, and
tho high standards that prevailed in
former seasons will be rigidly main
tained, and, if possible, improved.
"Moreover', the society will adhere
to Its origlnnl plans of giving its con
certs in the Academy of Music, nn
auditorium with a seating capacity con
siderably larger than the theatres
which have been uwl heretofore.
"This chango for the better wa
made absolutely uecessory, as It wan
found that It was impossible to ac
commodate the thousands of musts
lovers of modest means who clamored
for admission last winter.
"The services of Josef Pasternack,
whose splendid, spirited conducting

been secured. The society, too, will
be faithful to Its policy of encouraging
Philadelphia talent iy giving young
singers and Instrumentalists of promise
living In this city an opportunity to
appear in public. .
''Lastly, despite the increased wages,
the number of musicians in tho or
chestra will be increased from seventy
fivo to eighty."

The police sergeant was walking along

mobllo approaching. Both men In it
were young nnd dressed In dark clothes.
Tho rear of tho car was so filled with
tires that there was barely room for
a man to sit there and hold them in.

PAIN TO FISHES CAUSED
BY THOUGHTLESS ANGLERS
Aquarium Official Declares Inhabitants of Sea and Lakes Have
Well-Developed Sense of Feeling Asks Less Cruelty
Have fish a senso of pain?
"No!" scoffs tho fisherman, as with
flashing knlfo ho performs a surgical
operation on a catch ho haB no use for
nnd throws it back into the water, still
living and helpless prey for other fish.
"A fish is cold-blooded," this sports
man explains. "It has no nervous sen
sibilities, and it suffers llttlo If any
pain. Nnw, they don't mind being cut
up while they're still allvol"
But Thomas Mechan, superintendent
of the Falrmount Park Aquarium, who
certainly knows what he is talking
about, says this is all wrong.
"Of course fish feel pnln," ho said.
"They can suffer acutely from tho
thoughtless cruelty of heedless fisher
men. Fish havo a very senaltlvo nerve
along tho lateral lino nnd suffer ex
tremely from any injury to the sides.
"Some men scale a fish before it is
dead. This Is cruelty In the extreme
and should bo punished severely. Not
long ago 1 bad the pi ensure ot having
a man fined for doing just this thing.'
In the Delaware Bay Just now small
sharks are numerous, and arc bothorlng
the finhermcn, most of whom havo n
use for these fish. Ono method 'of
"punishment" Is to turn back the
shark's nose and throw It in tho water.
"There is little if any cruelty in
this," explained Mr. Meehan, "becauso

turning back the shark's noso breaks its

to Bwlm away, but that merely is a
convulsive movement, like that of n
chicken with its head cut off.
"Tho really humane way Is to kill the
fish by cutting tho neck Immediately
back of the head, severing tho main
nerve."
"The chief objection o tossing back
fish is the waste ot food," Mr. Meehan
went on, "for most of tho fish regarded
as non-cdlblo are delicious. Tho skate
or ray has flesh as good for food as
flounders.
"The balloon fish or puffer is eaual

United 8Utes Bureau of Fisheries, to
which Mr. Meehan referred. He went
on to say that tho Government urged
tho use of this fish as food under the
name of "grayflsh."
According to Mr. Meehan, very few
fish aro unfit for food.
"I know only two fish caught on thiB
coast which I would say wcro not fit
for food," he said. "They are tho
toadfish and tho all-mouth or angler."
OUTING FOR STORE BOYS
Wanamaker Institute Gamp to Be

The John Wanamakor Commercial
Institute, Thirteenth nnd Market
streets, will open Its annual encamp
mont at Island Heights, N. J., today.
The camp will bo devoted to boys
until August 4, and from August 6 to
August 18 girls of tho New York store
will bo cntertaineu.
Tho first detachment of boys will
leavo the Market street entrance of the
Wanamaker store hero at 1:1G o'clock
this afternoon, marching to the Market

them to Island Heights, whero they
will remain until July 21, when they

3 tests of yourself
while others are saying, "Why does
he work ? If I had as much money
as he has, I would have quit long
ago."
For a business is like a child once
it starts growing it may easily out
strip in size and weight those who
bred and nurtured it.
When your business begins to
grow, you must not only grow your
self, but you must see that those
about you grow as rapidly as their
jobs are growing. You must become
national -minded instead of local
minded. When your business reaches the
point where you must think in terms
of the whole people, you must look
to it that the whole people think in
terms of your business and its goods
or service. Unless you can grow, you
will be outgrown, and some day
people will say, "There is a new
bunch in control down there now."
To grow as fast as a big business
can grow, means that you must win
and hold the confidence of the people
of the United States of America.1
That is Test No. 3.
Of the many firms that are doing
national advertising, a few know that
