I 1 Tabernacle Choir Returns I IA A AFTER A TER a triumphal trip through the east the Tabernacle choir returns to Salt Lake covered covered cov coy ered cred with glory and with the consciousness that it has done its best and as well as could have been hoped The music lovers in many cities of the United States have been given gien a glimpse of the best and most talented residents of this commonwealth commonwealth common common- wealth they are arc now in a position to judge for themselves whether the people of this state have horns and cloven en feet feet n idea which an might easily have been inculcated by the slanderous landerous magazine articles concerning this state and its people which have been published in most of the eastern magazines magazines mag mag- and in many of the newspapers There seems to be doubt whether the tho trip has bas been a financial success it may mayor or it may not have been so The people of this city care oare little whether the returns from the various con concerts have bave equaled the expense Under the modem modern touchstone human endeavor in all lines Jines must show a balance on the tIle right side of the ledger or a failure is reckoned Itis It Itis Itis is good to know that the people have heard such enthusiastic enthusiastic enthusiastic en en- reports s from those cities in which the choir has been heard that they are willing to come forward and make good whatever is lacking All the commercial agencies in Utah that are arc interested in the development of tho the state all nIl those citizens who realize the necessity that this commonwealth commonwealth commonwealth common common- wealth shall have good repute in the sisterhood of states in order that and investors may maj maybe maybe be attracted to cast their fortunes with Utah have hav been striving for some years to remove the unfortunate unfortunate condition t that at was created br by the damaging magazine articles It is doubtful whether all the money expended has lIas had the salutary effect which has been accomplished by this trip of the choir Those who have attended the concerts have heard excellent music have learned that the choir is the peer of any musical organization of its kind in the United States that means refinement and and- culture and arouses the belief that the people of this state cannot be guilty of the fhe lie charges made against them by their traducers They have seen well-gowned well women and courteous men clothed and aud in their right minds presenting an appearance equal to that of the tho caste of Vere Yere de Yere that means prosper prosper- ity I Th They y have hae talked to members of the choir and found them aCl active ve intelligent and well in informed informed informed in- in formed that means education and active mental mental- ity The They have found that they average well with the people of their own acquaintance casual mingling mingling min mm- gling with the Utah visitors has lIas but impressed upon tho the people of the cast east the belief that the people of Utah have nothing for which to apologize Because Because Be Be- Because Be- Be I cause of that the trip was was' worth much more than it cost I A worthy reception is to be given them and all the thc citizens of Salt Lake irrespective of religious I belief should join in the welcome me to their homecoming home nome coming Whatever changes or modifies the preconceived I I opinions which the people of the east seem II to have formed about Utah and its people is well worthy the best effort oC or the citizenship of thi this tate state The trip of the choir has done much to change this opinion I.- I.
