Chesterton, who = has been paradoxing his way through i] | the United States lately, came to Washington yesterday and told an audlence at the National Theater all about the “Ignorance of the Edu- cated.” Needless to say, a good time was had by all. It is hard to report Mr. Chesterton’s remarks, unless they are taken ver- batim and transcribed from steno- graphic notes. Giving the sense of his statements takes away the Ches- tertonian tinge. Judging from Mr. Chesterton's re- marks yesterday, however, the ig- norance of the educated would ap- pear to be as harmless as the au- thor's apparent delight in pointing it out. As an instance, he described at length the idea, retained by the “educated” of early man's method of witning a wife, to wit.: By knock- ing her on the head with a stout club and dragging her away to a cave. “It would seem,” sald the speaker, “to argue an exaggerated and unnatural sense of delicacy, which is certainly not self-evident in the fact of such a simple society. I could not understand why, if prim- itive man was so very rude, primi- tive woman should be so absurdly refined.” Nor is there anything in history which would substantiate the theory, continued the author, tHat primitive woman was so much more averse to matrimony than her mod- ern sister.

Mr. Chesterton deviated a bit from his theme by discoursing at length on what might be called “The Ugli- ness of Beautiful Broadway.” d The author may have been. disap- pointed yesterday in the fact that wo questions were asked following his lecture. In Baltimore, where he lec- tured before coming here, he was questioned for some time after: his talk. The desire of those pfegent.to get home to dinner before. the rain may have explained what-seemed to be their lack of interest. ’ Thurlow Lieurance Recital. One of the unique, most interesting and delightful programs heard in Washington recently was given last evening by Thurlow Lieurance, com- poser-pianist; assisted by Edna Wool- ey, soprano and interpreter; Harry ‘W. Anderson, violinist, and George B. The concert was ar- ranged by the Rho Beta Chapter of the Mu Phi Epsilon, national musical sorority, and was heard by .a large audience which filled the guditorium of the new Masonio: Temple. The program was entirely of the Indian music which Mr. Lieurance has har- monized for the ear of the modern man, yet preserved distinotly Indian, as a record of tone pictures of a race now vanishing. Edna Wooley, who is Mrs. Thurlow Lieurance, was adopted into the Chip- pewa tribe in 1916, when Peter Green- sky, a Chi he is well qull!flid to interpret these strange and fascinat- ing melodies and has a soprano voice of belllike clearness, yet with a rich- ness in the medium tones that is almost = of contralto quality. She wore the costumes of the different tribes, each made by herself, and her entrance and exits were made !mm"‘ l)lhlndl:n ‘svenl. 5 In Mirrore: aters,” she sang in Sioux dialect and “O'er the m:lan le,” a Sioux lullaby, ‘was partly in the same dislect. “The Indlan Spring Bird” (“Ski-Bi-Bi-La”) also a Sioux theme, and the famous Sioux love song, “By the Waters of Minne- tonka,” had to be repeated. They were all sung with violin, flute and piano_accompaniment, with Mr. Lieur- ance himself at the piano. Mr. Lieurance, who is dean of mu- sic at .the University of Nebraska, gave a short explanation of each Kroup of songs, and in addition gave a short analysis of Indian themes, showing that each stands for some- thing in the life of the Indian. He also told of the difference in the flutes of the many tribes and of what they were made. The Hopi flutes of four tones, the Cheyenne of five tones and the Omaha and Navajo of 8ix tones. The themes of the “Lullaby From the Taoa Pueblas” and the “Pueblo Spring Song”’ were played on & Cheyenne flute‘'by Mr. Tack be- fore Mrs. Lieurance sang them. The last number was a dramatiza- tion of a fire dance, in which a hymn to the sun god is introduced. Mr. Lieurance first explained the cere- mony,’ and Mrs. Lieurance not only sang the hymn, but played the “tom- tom™ and acted the ceremony, inalud- ing the dance. One of the most in- toresting features of last evening’s concert.was the number of Indians in the audience who stayed until the close, never losing interest, and oc- casionally nodding to each other in evident approval. Preceding the fire dance, two new songs were interpolated, “My Colly Boy” and “Farewell, Cabin Mine” written by Mr. Lieurance during a year spent in the Yellowstone with a collie dog as companion. In the short and interesting explanations which Mr. Lieurance gave he spoke of the establishment of a national school of music, but does not believe that either the Indian or negro themes can be used alone, but that each should be kept intact. He spoke of the uses to lwhlch these Indian themes could be put and of a hope that symphonies and symphonic poems be built on th!f?x‘., oty dfy At the close of the program Mr. a; Mrs. Lieurance and their ‘lnll!-ln';g received an ovation, the progressiye musicians of Washington being quick to seek the acquaintance of this mu- :lc-hlnomn.mwho is doing -s0 * much o preserve the tradition: 2 Americans. etithe flrut‘ BELASCO—Juvenile Movies. the Belasco Saturaay morning by presentin children's ‘Alms. .
