Then he got work driving a wagon and wont to hauling dirt. Pretty soon he bought the wagon and the horses that he drove. At the end ot a year he owned several wag- ons. purchased with hi; profits. After another year or so he had a large and prosperous transportation business with runny wagons and trucks.

The composer persisted. and to get rid of her and her song Bloom married her.

The result was that the organist was asked it he could put on a series of recitals during the year. He agreed, and the result was that every two weeks since, a popular organ recital has been conducted for the benefit ot music lovers generally throughout the district. in nddition a twetttymve minute or- gan prelude to each Sunday evening service in given. It would be a gross exaggeration of the truth to say that the church is packed at either the tortuiqlttly organ recital or at the evening service, but the fact remains that enough music lovers attend both to more than Justify their existence.

The extraordinary thing is that Mr. Scat drew the plans tor this great cathedral when he was only twenty-one years old. One hundred and three. architects submitted sketch- es in competition. and live at them were invited to submit complete plans and drawings. The judges were unan- imous in selecting the designs of this lad of twenty-rne. and for more than twenty years he has been the super- vising architect of the great building. The cathedral is now less than half fttlirahe;1, but the plan is to complete it within totty years from the laying of the corner stone. and Mr. Scott may well luuk forward to the unusual experience ot seeing in his nhl ago the drevzm of his youth tronrplevly realized.
