SUNDAY, JUNE 8, 1924. ‘Ever So Humble—Have Music at ome.” “Nowadays there is no mt against this statement— is an accepted fact and not only ecepted, but carried out ulmost ithout exception. It is rare, indeed to find anything hat can be properly addressed as lome, Sweet Home" that does not Naim some sort of musical Instru- hent and some strong adherents to s inherent call. ‘To be sure much if it is of. the “canned” variety, but evertheless it is music and its juality depends on the taste and ducation of the family; and far be It from me to criticize even the jazz id less refined brands of musié— ecause I feel that each and every jemperament must be satisfied and very impulse find expression in ome musical form or another. I aintain that it is better for a amily to be listening to “Yes, We ve No Bananas,” “If I Don’t Get etie I Want, I Pity the ot Get," or ‘It Isn't the ‘sagh That Carries. You Off, But he Coffin They Carry You Off In,” to be wrangling about the imily budget or gossiping about heir ‘neighbors; and better for the oung folks to be fox trotting to meopated jazz in the parlor than epping out to some questionable sort to find enjoyment. They will jo it—and the best thing for parents do is to furnish the proper sur- oundings for their pleasure. And lease be reasonable and not expect ‘imiriation in their selection of music as you who have years of aining and cultivation and tradi- jon- back of you. You were not orn, unless you come under the rodigy class, with a fine sense of usical discernment, so) that only © high brow, classicai soit ap- ealed to you. If you are entirely onest you will admit that “My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean,’ and ‘The Spanish Cavalier” were de- idedly your favorites and about as Hassical as you could well compre- end, if you were of that period: Bien, “Little Annie Rooney” and Ta Ra Ra Boom De Aye” and sly a Bird in a Gilded Cage” o; somewhat Inter time; then, “Hot ime” and “In the Shade of the Old pple Tree,” and hundreds of others later periods completely satisfied Pour innate desires and musical de- lopment, - just as these later pediocrities satisfy and meet the eavirements of our bobbed haired appers and their male partners, ie “snakes,” shieks and “fussers” today. Musical taste, after all, is sort of vacillating, changing, vari-colored hedium whereby to express all the hases, moods, and fancies of the fimes in which we live. Every con- ion has its effect upon the music reduced at that time, and) that pusic is the consequence of some use or condition. The same old theory of cause and (ect that governs the laws and estiny of the whole universe—even r arts, amusements, music, and in t all our living is controlled by at law. You could not well ex- tthe post-war temperament to “Wd, or commonplace, placid or “S.«@ «The horrors, tragedy, and Wve racking experiences of those > ing years was bound to be fol- bwed by a relaxation of spirit; an extreme of hilarity even to the point ff hysteria; a letting down ‘of com- osure; and an insanity of galety; abandon, exhileratidn and extor- Mion of passion expressed in futurist t, free verse and jazz music—not p mention our slip in fashions, Semusements, etiquette, and even our porals—so some alarmists claim. The musicians who have our best pterests at heart, have been terribly jorried and concerned as to the ture, when they saw we had de- riorated so far in our preference rw “The Blue Monday Blues,” “The at's Whiskers,” “Bdrney woe a other. lively saxgphonic thrills “The Fifth Nocturne,” “Sym- hony in B Minor,” Overtures, gues, Preludes and such. They Ht like there was no redemption us, but I believe the fever has Meached its crises, the epidemic lecked, and the patient on the road i recovery.

Music, music everywhere! It is,a universal lan- guagé, a common, understandable, sentiment; a human appeal; an in- herent impulse. To be sure, we don’t all like the same kinds—thank heaven for that—for such monotony of sound, even though of very su- perior kind would eventually kill the liking. I warrant that the Lord has been to it long ere this that there is a great variety of musical instruments in the choirs of heaven —for even harps played by angelic harpists, who are supposed to be ultra fine masters of the art could and would grow deadly monotonous in eons of time. “Variety “is the spice of life," and of heaven too, we presume to infer, and even a Jew’s barp playing some old, fa- miliar tune would sound far sweeter to some soul far, far away from earthly haunts and “kin folk,” than the most wonderful music sung by celestial choirs, Don’t deplore the fact that your next door neighbor has only an old, cheap talking machine with a cracked horn and @ few mediocre records which he persists in play- ing at inopportune times—and over and over again. Rejoice with him in his possession; be glad that he has even that much love of music in his soul. Or, perhaps, it should be reversed and say, a loye for that much music, anyway he is not of murderous intent when he is wind- ing up the old Vic. He is not likely to be beating his wife or cursir his children when “Papa Loves Mama and Mama Loves Papa’’ is being reeled off at a 2:40 clip by the family interpreter, or do dishes and frying pans fly to the accompani. ment of “Somebody's Little Tootsic Wooste Is Oo.” People usually are in either a sweet, mild, pleasant, agreeable, gay or humorous—sad, reminiscent, lov- ing or sympathetic mood when listening to music. The old quota tion, “Music hath charms to sooth the savage breast,” is hot just poetry, it is an axiom—an adage— so let's have music in the home where the savages are perfectly natural, when the zoo is not open to the public and the animals not on exhibition. Have music, if it Is only an old wheezy organ. or a bit of the canned variety—put up a cheap, home-made radio, even though the intermittent, blatant and scratchy or squeaky, faint tone of @ wave length, you can listen in on some fine. long distance concerts; besides the “Home of Tea Pot Dome Variety” as the announcer of the Casper broadcasting station aptly puts it. This new medium whereby to dispense music is a most wonder- ful adjunct to the cultivation and uplift of musical acumen. We can't, as yet, begin to, realize its bene- ficient and far reaching effects and to the credit of all broadcasting sta- tions, Jet it be said that they only put cut good stuff, To be sure, they cater to all tastes as much as pos- sible, but generally it is the best of its kind and whove the average in production. I believe, generally speaking, that where there is music in the home there is more love, more interest, more companionship, and more enjoyment.

It can't help but have an uplifting, benefitial effect and family jars are not likely to be fomented at such a time. Have music in the home. If you can't have the best, have the best you can.
