(over) SERGE KOUSSEVITZKY

Next autumn Serge Koussevitzky, called the most striking figure and dominant personality in the or- chestral concerts of London and Paris, will come to America for the

first time, to be the conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

He is described as a leader of rare magnetism and forcefulness, and as an artist of impassioned convictions.

Mr. Koussevitzky's earlier career in Russia was perhaps most conspicu- ous in the famous orchestra which he organized in Moscow. He as- sembled his country's best musi- cians, subsidized them, that his hand might be entirely free, and drilled them into a remarkable organization. In Moscow and Petrograd, Beethoven and Bach festivals figured among his con- certs. He likewise championed music of genius from living com- posers. It was also characteristic of him to travel all over Russia with his orchestra, bearing symphonic music to parts where it had never been heard. He even chartered a steamer and, sailing the length of the Volga, gave concerts in town after town.

It was in 1920 that circumstances took him westward. In Paris he organized what have come to be known broadly as the "Koussevitzky Concerts" which for the last four seasons have been the most prominent in that city. In London he has made a similarly vivid impression, particularly as guest conductor of the London Sym- phony Orchestra. He has likewise appeared as guest over numer- ous other European orchestras. He has occasionally conducted opera, notably at the Grand Opera in Paris and in Barcelona.

Serge Koussevitzky will be the first Russian to lead the Boston Symphony Orchestra. He is named as the only truly great con- ductor whom as yet America has not heard.

(Born at Tikhvin, in the government of Novgorod, March 18,* 1844; died at Petrograd, June 21, 1908)

Rimsky-Korsakov wrote this overture in 1888. It was not pub- lished until 1890. The score, dedicated to the memory of Moussorgsky and Borodin, calls for these instruments: three flutes (the third interchangeable with a piccolo), two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, four horns, two trumpets, three trombones, bass tuba, three kettledrums. Glock- enspiel, triangle, cymbals, bass drum, tam-tam, harp; first violins, 20-12, second violins, 18-10; ^dolas, 14-8; violoncellos, 12-8; double- basses, 10-6. The first performance of the overture in Boston was at a con- cert of the Boston Symphony Orchestra on October 23, 1897, Emil Paur conductor. The programme also comprised: Gernshelm's Violin Concerto in D major (first time in Boston), I. Schnitzler violinist ; Schumann's Symphony No. 1 ; Tchaikovsky's Italian Capriccio (first time in Boston).

This date is given in the catalogue of Belai'ev, the Russian publishing-house. One or two music lexicons give May 21.

A programme in Kussian and French is printed on a fly-leaf of the score: two verses from Psalm LXVII., six verses from the six- teenth chapter of tlie Gospel according to Mark, and further matter written by the composer. The Biblical quotations are given in the old Slavonic tongue, which is still used in the Russian liturgy. Rimsky-Korsakov's part of the programme is in modern Russian. The French version of Psalm LXVII. states that it is a translation of the Septuagint adopted by the Russian Church; this Psalm therein is numbered LXVII. In the King James English version it is LXVIII.

Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered Let them also that hate him, flee before him. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away As wax melteth before the fire. So let the wicked perish at the presence of God. Psalm LXVII. And when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him. And very early in the morning, the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun : And they said among themselves. Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? (And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away, for it was very great.) And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment ; and they were affrighted. And he saith unto them. Be not affrighted ye seek Jesus of ;

Nazareth, which was crucified : he is risen. St. Mark xvi. And the joyful tidings were spread abroad all over the world, and they who hated Him fled before Him, vanishing like smoke. "Resurrexit !" sing the choirs of Angels in heaven, to the sound of the

The overture begins with an Introduction (Lento mystico, D minor, 5-2 time) in which a melody of the Russian Church is given to the wood-wind. The strings take it up. A cadenza for the solo violin leads to a section in which the solo violoncello repeats a phrase. The opening chant is now given to the trombones. Strings answer antiphonally. The solo violin has another cadenza, An- dante lugubre, sempre alia breve. A portion of the chant is devel- oped. The main body of the overture. Allegro agitato.

Thus is Fashion described by the woman of good taste.

And good taste has been for over half a century the Slattery yard- stick — the Slattery mission to serve the woman of good taste.

Good taste, like sunshine, is no respecter of persons. Today it as frequently bespeaks the woman of modest means.

Women of good taste are quick to recognize new modes of real worth; and it is Slattery's rare privilege to use such insight, taste and skill in the selection and presentation of such modes that women of taste may come here, as did their mothers and grand- mothers before them — and find Fashion made individual, service- able, truly economical!

1595 : to the violins (two of them in altissiino play harmonics) against repeated chords in the wood-wind and a triplet figure for the harp. A call is sounded by horns and trumpets. A new section follows with much work for percussion instruments. '^Note the imitation of a deep-toned bell in the gong." There is a church-like return of the second theme in the wood-wind, and then a recitative, Maestoso, for the trombone, accompanied by sustained harmonies for the violoncellos and double-basses. The first theme reappears. There is the customary recapitulation section, more extended, with very different instrumentation. The coda is long. At the end the second theme is sounded vigorously by trombones and lower strings. When this overture was first played in Boston (1897), William Foster Apthorp, then the editor of the Boston Symphony Orches- tra's programme books, wrote: "As far as this overture can be considered to adhere to the traditional form, its form is that of the sonatina, rather that of the sonata ; there is no free fantasia proper. But the development assumes, from the beginning, so much of the character of working-out that the form loses whatever of elementary simplicity might be taken to be implied in the term 'sonatina.' Upon the whole the development is very free."

Unfinished Symphony in B minor Franz Schubert

(Born at Lichtenthal, near Vienna, January 31, 1797; died at Vienna, November 19, 1828)

Two brothers, Aiiselm and Joseph Htittenbrenner, were fond of Schubert. Their home was in Graz, Styria, but they were living at

Vienna. Anselm was a musician ; Joseph was in a government office. Anselm took Schubert to call on Beethoven, and there is a story that the sick man said, ''You, Anselm, have my laind ; but Franz has my soul." Anselm closed the eyes of Beethoven in death. These brothers Avere constant in endeavor to make Schubert known.

1601 Anselm weut so far as to publish a set of "Erlkiug Waltzes," and assisted in putting Schubert's opera, ''Alfonso and Estrella" (1822), in rehearsal at Graz, where it would have been performed if the score had not been too difficult for the orchestra. In 1822 Schubert was elected an honorary member of musical societies of Linz and Graz. In return for the compliment from Graz, he began the Sym- phony in B minor, No, 8 (October 30, 1822). He finished the Allegro and the Andante, and he wrote nine measures of the Scherzo. Schu- bert visited Graz in 1827, but neither there nor elsewhere did he ever hear his unfinished work. Anselm Htittenbrenner went back to his home about 1820, and it was during a visit to Vienna that he saw Beethoven dying. Joseph remained at Vienna. In 1860 he wrote from the office of the Min- ister of the Interior a singular letter to Johann Herbeck, who then conducted the concerts of the Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde. He begged permission to sing in the concerts as a member of the so- ciety, and urged him to look over symphonies, overtures, songs, quartets, choruses by Anselm. He added towards the end of the letter, "He [Anselm] has a treasure in Schubert's B minor sym- phony, which we put on a level with the great Symphony in C, his instrumental swan-song, and any one of the symphonies by Beet- hoven." Herbeck was inactive and silent for five years, although he visited Graz several times. Perhaps he was afraid that if the manuscript came to light, he could not gain possession of it, and the symphony,

1603 7 like the one in C, wonld be produced elsewhere than in Vienna. Perhaps he thought the price of producing one of Anselm Htitten- brenner's works in Vienna too dear. There is reason to believe that Joseph insisted on this condition. (See "Johann Herbeck," by L. Herbeck, Vienna, 1885, page 165.) In 1865 Herbeck was obliged to journey with his sister-in-law, who sought health. They stopped in Graz. On May 1 he went to Ober- Andritz, where the old and tired Anselm, in a hidden, little one- story cottage, was awaiting death. Herbeck sat down in a humble inn. He talked with the landlord, who told him that Anselm was in the habit of breakfasting there. While they were talking, An- slm appeared. After a few words Herbeck said, "I am here to ask permission to produce one of your works at Vienna." The old man brightened, he shed his indifference, and after breakfast took him to his home. The workroom was stuffed with yellow and dusty papers, all in confusion. Anselm showed his own manuscripts, and finally Herbeck chose one of the ten overtures for performance. "It is mj purpose," he said, "to bring forward three contemporaries. Schubert, Htittenbrenner, and Lachner, in one concert before the Viennese public. It would naturally be very appropriate to rep- resent Schubert by a new work." "Oh, I have still a lot of things by Schubert," answered the old man ; and he pulled a mass of papers out of an old-fashioned chest. Herbeck immediately saw on the cover of a manuscript "Symphonic in H moll," in Schubert's handwriting. Herbeck looked the symphony over. "This would do. FIERCE-ARROW

V-IPERA, because it is the newest of the arts, need never speculate about its father. The memory of man runs back to its nativity. But of the birth of rug-making, recorded history tells but little.

However, the hill men of Persia, back through the teeming centuries, from swarthy father to swarthy son, have passed along the legend of Kasha, who, tend- ing his fiocks at the hush of sunset, the while he played upon his flute, pensive grew at the fleetness of the beauty of music, passing as the flaming colors of the sky.

And Parara, god of beauty, seeing his thoughts, stood before him.

iit 'Give unto me the flute and I will play you visible music," and as the dancing notes struck the air they fashioned themselves into a rhythmic pattern and took on shape and the colors of the dying sky, and behold! — suspended in mid air before the eyes of Kasha, a tangible, beautiful rug of the Orient.

What was this "Presfo vivace, D major," put on the programme as the third movement of the "Unfinished" Symphony? There are only nine measures of the Scherzo, which is in B minor. Neither Ludwig Herbeck nor Hanslick tells us, Hiittenbrenner's overture was described as "respectable KapelT- meistermusik ; no one can deny its smoothness of style and a cer- tain skill in the workmanship." The composer died in 1868. The Unfinished Symphony was played at the Crystal Palace, Sydenham, in 1867.

1607 The first performance iu Boston was by the Orchestral Union, led by Carl Zerrahn, February 26, 1868. The first performance at a concert of the Boston Symphony Or- chestra in Boston was on February 11, 1882, Georg Henschel con- ductor. The symphony remained a fragment, as ^'Christabel," until a Berliner named August Ludwig added two movements of his own invention. He entitled the third "Philosophen-Scherzo," in which "a ring was put through the nose of the bear Learning, i.e., counter- point, that he might dance, to the amusement of all." ''The second and tender theme conjures from the fairyland of poetry (Invention) a fay which tames and frees the bear, who pines in constraint." The Finale is a "March of Fate," described by the composer at length and in fearsome words. The motto is, "Brazen stalks Fate, yet is she crowned with roses and love!" "Truly," says Ludwig, "Fate has stalked with brazen steps over our ancient masters. A new age has awakened a new music-era." There is much more of this. The incredible work, the iTnfinished Sj^mphony of Schubert, finished by August Ludwig, was performed at the Philharmonic, , December 8, 1892. The symphony is scored for two flutes, two oboes, two clarinets, two bassoons, two horns, two trumpets, three trombones, kettle- drums, strings.

1615 to take medicine during his visit; he was very pale; and, although he now and then jested with friends, he was in doleful dumps, and when he took his leave he shed tears. The failure of the opera deepened his melancholy. Niemtschek thought that the audience, in holiday humor, was unable to appreciate the music. The opera is a return to the old-fashioned opera seria in construction and character. For instance, the parts of Sextus and Annius, the lovers, were written for women and played and sung by them. An incred- ible opera to come after "Don Giovanni" and twenty-four days before the first performance of "The Magic Flute"! The Prague correspondent of the Musikalisches Wochenhlatt (Berlin) wrote: "The music did not please, although it is by Mozart. This other- wise great composer appears to have forgotten the motto of Octa- vius, 'Make haste slowly!' Furthermore, only the arias and cho- ruses were by him. The recitatives were composed by another.

. . . Mozart is dead. He went home sick from Prague, and never recovered. They thought he was dropsical, and he died at Vienna towards the end of last week." This letter is dated December 12, 1791. "Because his body swelled after his death, it is said that he was poisoned. One of his last works is a Requiem, they say, which was performed at his funeral. Now he is dead, the Viennese will indeed discover what they have lost in him. Alive, he had constantly to do with a cabal, which he, it is true, used to irritate by his manners sans souci.

The Night Has a Thousand Eyes

As evening approaches, the lamps of the sky are lighted as one by one the stars twinkle into sight. All around us near at hand the electric lamps of home are lighted. In the living-room father reads his evening paper and mother scans her favorite magazines. Childish heads are bent over school-books or over one of the exciting tales which bring sparkles to the eye and a flush to the cheek. In the boudoir or bedroom a rosy shaded lamp il- lumines the dressing of the girl so happily preparing for dance or theatre. So when night comes, lamps take their place in

family life, which might be said to cluster around them. On our fourth floor you will find a collection of desir- able lamps electrically equipped—floor lamps to stand behind a wing chair or beside the bridge table, twin lamps for either end of the library table, small lamps for desk or boudoir, big comfy lamps for the living-room table. Some are made of pottery exquisitelyglazed, with indescribably

changing hues ; others are of Chinese porcelain ; all are at- tractive, wired for electricity and with matching shades.

© /iz.l s.. c. &• i. c% had any luck in Vienna ; the more conspicuous their success at Prague. Peace to liis ashes." Metastasio wrote the original libretto of "La Clemenza di Tito" at Vienna in 1734, the year in which his dearly beloved Marianni Bulgarini, called Romanina, the greatest female singer and actress of her time, died and bequeathed to him, after the death of her husband, all she had, to the amount of 25,000 crowns. Smug Dr. Burney remarks in his "Memoirs of the Life and Writings of the

Abate Metastasio" : "It seems as if the character and court of the emperor Charles VI. had directed the muse of Metastasio to choose a virtuous prince for the principal hero of most of the musical dramas that were represented in the Imperial Theatre. The em- peror Avas a religious prince and a rigid observer of decorum him- self, which constantly kept licentiousness at a distance from his court. And the poet, naturally a friend to virtue and morality, seems to have gratified his own feelings by conforming to the serious sentiments of his Imperial Patron." The story is practically the same, with change of characters, as that of Corneille's "Cinna; on, la Clemence d'Auguste" (1639) Metastasio took for his hero Titus, "the lovely dearling and delight- full joy of Mankinde." Titus has unthroned Vitellius, whose daugh- ter Vitellia is sore vexed because Titus does not woo her. She con- spires with her lover Sextus, friend to the emperor, the latter's downfall. Titus exiles his sweetheart, Berenice, and prays Sextus to give him the hand of his sister, Servilia, who is already promised to Annius. Servilia tells the truth to Titus, who abandons his pur-

There is a report that Titus has been assassinated. Sextus, about to escape, is imprisoned, but out of love for Vitellia is silent. Vitellia, to save him, declares in the amphitheatre, as Sextus is about to be put to death, that she alone is guilty of in- stigating the plot. Titus pardons all.

Zelter wrote to Goethe : ''Such a Titus, who is in love with every woman who wishes to kill him, is yet to be born." This text Avas set to music by many besides Caldara and Mozart, Leo, Hasse, Wagenseil, Pampani, Perez, Gluck, Adolfati, Jomelli, Cocchi, Naumann, Bernasconi, Anfossi, Sarti, Holzbauer, Guglielmi, Apell, Ottani, Mccolini, Galuppi, Grua, Mazzoni. There is a curious passage in the "Osservazione sopra i Drammi deir Abate Metastasio," published at Nice in 1785 : "In the 'Clemenza di Tito' as in some of his other works, Metas- tasio has dared to beat down the idol to which modern music has ofifered so much incense, namely, the Duet. We applaud his bold- ness. The fierce and furious Vitellia was not permitted to warble along with the foolish Sextus or the gentle Titus. But if this opera is again brought on the stage in our time, who knows what non- sense may be introduced into it by the tribe of stage-poets, here to supply a duet, there to introduce a rondeau, now in compliance with the dictates of caprice, and now to satisfy the demands of ignorance !''

''Memoirs of the Musical Drama," vol. i. pp.' 838-340 (London, 1838). "La Clemenza di Tito" was the first of Mozart's operas to be performed in England. It was produced at the King's Theatre, London, March 27, 1806, for Elizabeth Billington's benefit. Honest

Mr. Parke, oboist and gossip, wrote : "In this charming opera Bil- lington, who was ably supported by Braham, made a display of talent rarely witnessed; and the music stamps the composer of it as the greatest musical genius of the age. Mrs. Billington, with whom I had lived on terms of friendly intimacy for several years, sent me a ticket. ... I was highly gratified with the refined science, elegant taste, and natural simplicity displayed in this fine produc- tion." * * *

These airs from "La Clemenza di Tito" have been sung at these concerts in Boston "Parto, parto" (Rosa Olitzka), January 1, 1896; "Recitative," "Ecco il punto," and Rondo, "Non piii di fiori" (Mme. Schumann- Heink), October 27, 1900, and December 4, 1910.

The list of subscribers to the operating deficit of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Inc. for 1923-24 was first printed in the programme books of November 16 and 17. Two weeks later, with the names of many new subscribers added in the interval, the pledged amount of $58,706.00 was published. Since then the total has been increased to $81,998.34 This has come about through a greatly extended cooperation in the support of the Orchestra on the part of its patrons. The Trustees, with much appreciation of what has already been done, would be glad to have it generally understood that subscriptions of small and moderate amounts are warmly welcomed from those who cannot make such contributions as they would like to offer. The widest possible distribution of support is as much to be desired as the support itself. Subscriptions to annual deficit and to the Endowment Fund should be sent to E. B.

1629 ' "Song op the Sp:a- : Tone Poem for Orchestra after the Poem BY Walt Whitman "On The Beach at Night" from "Sea Drift" Frederick Shepherd Converse

(Born at Newton, Mass., January 15, 1871; now living in Boston)

Mr. Converse sketched this tone poem in the winter of 1922-23. The scoring was completed in December, 1923. "Song of the Sea" was suggested, Mr. Converse writes, by the poem of Walt Whitman which is here printed. "While it is not in any sense a literal interpretation of it, it follows the spiritual and emotional sequence of the lines. Beginning with moods of mystery and sadness, it culminates in elation and joy. I have not attempted a realistic picture of the sea; only something of its spiritual suggestion."

On the Beach at Ntght On the beach at night. Stands a chikl with her father, Watelling the east, the autumn sky.

Up through the darkness. While ravening clouds, the burial clouds, in black masses spreading. Lower sullen and fast athwart and down the sky. Amid a transparent clear belt of ether yet left in the east. Ascends large and calm the lord-star .Jupiter, And nigh at hand, only a very little above, Swim the delicate sisters the Pleiades.

1631 From the beach the child holding the hand of her father, Those burial-clouds that lower victorious soon to devour all, Watching, silently weeps.

Weep not, child, Weep not, my darling. With these kisses let me remove your tears. The ravening clouds shall not long be victorious, They shall not long possess the sky, they devour the stars only in apparition, Jupiter shall emerge, be patient, watch again another night, the Pleiades shall emerge. They are immortal, all those stars both silvery and golden shall shine out again. The great stars and the little ones shall shine out again, they endure. The vast immortal suns and the long-enduring pensive moons shall again shine.

Then dearest child, mournest thou only for Jupiter? Considerest thou alone the burial of the stars?

Something there is, (With my lips soothing thee, adding I whisper, I give thee the first suggestion, the problem and indirection,) Something there is more immortal even than the stars, (Many the burials, many the days and nights, passing away,) Something that shall endure longer even than lustrous Jupiter. Longer than sun or any revolving satellite, Or the radiant sisters the Pleiades.

MORGEN (Op. 27, No. 4) Und Morgen wird die Sonne wieder scheinen; Und auf dem Wage, den ich gehen werde, Wird uns die Glticklichen sie wieder einen In mitten dieser sonnenatmenden Erde; Und zu dem Strand, dem weiten, wogenblauen, Werden wir still und langsam niedersteigen, Stumm werden wir uns in die Augen schauen Und auf uns sinkt des Gllickes stummes Schweigen. John Henry Mackay. TO-MORROW

To-morrow's sun will rise in glory beaming, And in the pathway that my foot shaU wander, We'll meet, forget the earth and, lost in dreaming, Let heav'n unite a love that earth no more shall sunder; And towards that shore, its biUows softly flowing, Our hands entwined, our footsteps slowly wending Gaze in each other's eyes in love's soft splendor glowing Mute with tears of joy and bliss ne'er ending. Translation by John Bernhoff.

This song was sung in Boston by Mme. Strauss-de Ahna at Richard Strauss's concert in Symphony Hall with the Philadelphia Orchestra, March 8, 1904. Elena Gerhardt sang it at a Symphony concert in Boston, January 4, 1913; Julia Gulp sang it at a Symphony concert on April 6, 1917. The accompaniment is scored for solo violin, strings, and harp.

Mr. Schelling began the composition of this work in New York in the spring of 1922. He completed it in Switzerland in the fol- lowing summer. The first performances were by the Philadelphia Orchestra in Philadelphia on February 23-24, 1923. Mr. Schelling then wrote

BOi — ; to Mr. Lawrence Gilman, the accomplished editor of the Philadel phia Orchestra's programme books :

". . .1 had come back from Europe still very much under the impression of the cataclysm, much troubled for the future, and Avas amazed 'to find that so few seemed to remember what the war really had meant, with its sacrifice of life and youth. I had won- dered, when watching the seething mass of humanity at some cabaret, what our boys would think of it all, and I had a sinister vision similar to the one that made me write my '1914' Impression [in the Variations for piano and orchestra, 'Impressions from an Artist's Life']. I came across Alfred Noyes' poem, 'A Victory Ball,' while in this mood, and was impelled to use it as the basis of an orchestral fantasy.

''I have used two army bugle-calls : the 'Call to Arms' and 'Charge,' which ominously usher in the War Vision; and at the very end of the piece I have used 'Taps.' The work is a perfectly free fantasy, with, however, a certain amount of thematic development. "I had occasion during the war to hear the Scotch Pipers, and to observe the extraordinary effect their music had on the troops and at the end of the work I have tried to make the whole or- chestra a huge bagpipe, perhaps the most pagan and primitive form of music. The piece is scored for full symphonic orchestra " and bears this inscription : 'To the memory of an American soldier.'

1641 —

The verses* by Alfred Noyes that suggested this Fantasy are as follows:

The cymbals crash, and the dancers walk, With long silk stockings and arms of chalk. Butterfly skirts, and white breasts bare. And shadows of dead men watching 'em there.

Shadows of dead men stand by the wall, Watching the fun of the Victory Ball. They do not reproach, because they know. If they're forgotten, it's better so.

Under the dancing feet are the graves. Dazzle and motley, in long bright waves, Brushed by the palm-fronds, grapple and whirl • Ox-eyed matron and slim white girl.

See, there is one child fresh from school. Learning the ropes as the old hands rule. God, how that dead boy gapes and grins As the tom-toms bang and the shimmy begins.

, "What did you think we shovild find," said a shade, '"When the last shot echoed and peace was made?" "Christ," laughed the fleshless jaws of his friend. "I thought they'd be praying for worlds to mend."

"Pish," said a statesman standing near, "I'm glad they can busy their thoughts elsewhere We mustn't reproach 'em. They're young, you see." "Ah," said the dead men, "so were we !"

Victory ! Victory ! On with the dance Back to the jungle the new beasts prance God, how the dead men grin by the wall, "Watching the fun of the Victory Ball.

We quote Mr. Oilman's comments on the Fantasia. He observes that in the English edition of Mr. Noyes's collected poems, the text of several of these stanzas differs from that of the American edition quoted by Mr. Sclielling in his score, and then remarks "Mr. Schelling has conceived his tone-poem as a bacchanale trav- ersed by a vision—an apparition of troops 'marching on irresist- ibly, inexorably. Nothing stops them—not those that fall by the way, not those whose fate is written in fiery, stormy skies. On they march to victory or disaster, with—in either case—desolation, suffering, death.' ''The music (after an introductory section, Moderato) evokes the ballroom and its heedless, swirling crowd. There is a brilliant polonaise, and the rhythms of the fox-trot and tango are suggested.

Then comes the dramatic and poignant interruption : the vision of the marching hosts—those valorous and forgotten dead who

We hear (as in the Variation entitled '1914' in Mr. Schelling's 'Impressions of an Artist's Life') the 'Dies Irse' on the brass. The tramping of the soldiers is momentarily drowned by the wild tumult of the dance; the lights flare up, and we see the revellers waltzing through the melee. But the vision reshapes itself. The Scots and their bagpipes pass. There is a great climax, a long drum-roll, diminuendo ; and then, from a distant trumpeter, 'Taps.'

Mr. Schelling's first teacher was his father, Dr. Felix Schelling. The boy at the age of five appeared in public to show his technical proficiency and unusual sense of pitch. He entered the Paris Con- servatory when he was nine years old, and continued his studies with Hans Huber at BMe. As a lad, he played in London, Paris, and in cities of Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, and Denmark. Mr. Paderewski became interested in him and taught him for some time. Mr. Schelling has played in cities of South America. TJie list of his compositions includes a symphony, "Impressions from an Artist's Life" in the form of Variations on an Original Theme, a Violin Concerto, Symphonic Legend for orchestra, Fantastic Suite for pianoforte and orchestra, chamber music, and pianoforte

1650 "Excuse lue. Miss Hills, my head aches. It is bad all the time. What shall I do?" '"Miss Hills, Nick's shoes are no good. All broken on the bottom. He can't go to school." "Miss Hills, Nick is fresh, awful fresh." "Miss Hills. Mary is sick. She is nervous. Nervous all the time. Shall I bring her to the doctor?" "Miss Hills, what shall I do? I can't buy clothes for the children. It costs too much. They must look nice for school. The teacher sends them home if they are dirty. Nick has only one shirt. What can I do. Miss Hills?" "Miss Hills, it is cold. Too cold. I have only a little coal. It costs too much. My mother is old. What shall I do?"

What answers can a Social Worker in a busy hospital out- patient clinic find for these questions? A hospital is a place where people go when they are sick in mind or body. This poor Italian-born widow, trying to bring up four little children, care for her aged parents and make both ends meet on a scanty income, has come to feel that it is the place to go with all one's troubles, whether of mind, body, or estate.

First those headaches : Poor Mrs. Vincenza, along with all her

other troubles, has epilepsy ; the "spells" were very bad, especially for her who had so much to do. But God is good, and modern scientific medicine has found what seems like a cure, or at least a help for this mysterious trouble. The pills must be taken for a long time, however, the patient must often be seen by the clinic doctor, and (hardest of all when one has barely suflScient money to pay rent and buy food for seven hungry mouths) these wonderful pills cost lots of money.

Well, money was found to buy the pills ; "Miss Hills" saw to it that Mrs. Vincenza came to the clinic two or three times a month, sometimes oftener, for two years, and now it is three months since she has had a "spell." Outside relief agencies were called upon and have helped out on some of the other needs. It takes endless time and patience and real human sympathy, to say nothing of training and experience, to keep track of the indi- vidual patient among the scores crowding the clinic. However, incessant oversight and much advice have at last started this foreign-born mother on a sensible way to bring up her little American brood and to support them and her old parents.
