Kimball, tabernacle organist, in a talk before the Rotary club at the Hotel Utah Tuesday, urged that a national advertising campaign should call attention to Salt Lake as a cultural center as well as an Industrial and central scenic community. He said there are three agencies which make for culture. They are religion, education and art, and Salt Lake has all of these, he declared. Besides telling outside people of the money that can be made here, effort should be made, he said, to Impress upon their minds that this Is a city to raise children In, where they will be surrounded by an environment of culture. Surely the people of Salt Lake have an excellent conception of home life, he said Mr. Kimball also pointed out that the younger generation of Salt Lake should be better educated In music,. He said: "Our children are growing up without appreciation of traditional and standard music. The music they do her Is through a group of substitutional Instruments and they are losing all ability to recognise the dlf- -ference between Jaxs and the excellence of the classical gems "In Salt Ijtke there Is no supervision of music In the Dubllc school system, and there should or be a law all music to regulate examinations teachers." He also stressed the need of an auditorium that would seat at least 10,000 for large civic functions. Besides this, there should be another auditorium for smaller meetings, and also a building to house the different organlxationa and auxll-arles. The musical program waa furnished by Miss Lllas Johnson on tne piano and by Harold Bennett, who sang accompanied by Miss Becky Almond Spencer Cornwall, the director of this year's "The Messiah," was Mr. Kimball's guest.
