Crowds that seemingly increase as Washington's second Music week pro- gresses flocked to Memorial Continental Hall and the Central High Schodl audi- torum last night, where feature con- certs were presented by noted artists participating in the week’s activitles. At the first named institution the city of Washington was presented with a bronze bust of the immortal master of song, Enrico Caruso, by the Caruso me- morial committee of Washington. Sen- ator Duncan U. Fletcher of Florida, in a brief presentation address, declared that by plastic art and modern science Caruso’s form and voice was preserved lhrou‘h]?uldlhe w:rld, although he was physically departed. Tn accepting the gift on behdlf of the city, Col. Charles Keller. Engineer Com- missioner of the District, said that be- cause the American people had been de- voted to the bullding of & continent for the last 150 years they had been ac- n7wed of neglecting the arts and being materialistic, “but,” he said, ¥wghave {VARIETY OF PROGRAMS PREPARED FOR TODAY IN MUSIC FESTIVITY In schools, clubs ard lodges, music programs today in’vonnection with llu-lerw k will be of varied charac- ter. - Foliowing are those listed: NEW MASONIC TEMPLE. 13th street and New.York avenie.

Frederick L. Stephens, chairman of the executive committee, presenting the bust, made a brief address, In which he said he hoped that musjc week would become an &nnual na- tional affair. The concert program consisted of the J. L. Hudson Male Quartet of De- troit, violin, cello and piano selec- tions by the Norfleet Trio of New York and sacred music by the Schola Cantorum of SS. Peter and Pai Cathedral of Indianapolis. A wonderful reception was extend- ed these out-of-town organizations, which have literally captivated musl lovers of the city. The more they are heard at the various concerts the more Is their work appreciated. The Detroit quartet and the Indian- apolis choristers are all business men and their work is a splendid com- mentary on what can be achleved by the true lovers of music. The Schola Cantorum of Indiana Cathedral have specializad in Cath- olic Church music, and are considered by many the greatest small cholr in the United States. The perfect di- rection of their leader, Elmer Andrew Hudson Quartet vesterday, William L. Radcliffe, head of the local Chau- tanqua bureau, declared it to be the greatest quartet he had ever heard. ‘While the Norfleet Trio have not been heard as frequently as the other organizations, they will have their pportunity tonight. when a special oncert will be presented at the New Masonic Temple. o ovation was extended the Nor- dica Mandolin and Guitar Orchestra at the Central High School, when, under direction of Walter L. Holt, a program rich with special.numbers was presented last night. During the entertainment appro- priate medals to the winners of the Music wlek memory contest of the District Council of Boy Scouts were presented. E, A guitar solo, “Valse Caprice,” was played by its composer, Charles A. “onrad. A mandolin solo by Miss A. A. Hill and music by the Hudson Quartet of Detroit were also roundly applauded. Throughout the day music reigned supreme at many of the public schools and civic betterment organ- izations of the city. At the Rotary Club a treméndous gathering of out-of-town Rotarl, and visiting guests crowded the City Club in honor of the special program presented there. ‘William Knowles Cooper, presiden of the club, made a stirring appe: for support of the music movemen and stressed the necessity for all citizens of Washington to subseribe personally or by purchasing pro- grams or season tickets in order that the expense of the undertaking would be met. Robert Lawrence, organizing direc- tor of Washington Music week also spoke briefly in response to the splendid reception tendered him by the club. Mr. Lawrence pointed with pride to the program that had just been presented by the Hudson trio, the Schola Cantorum of SS. Peter and Paul Cathedral of Indianapolis and the Norfleet trio of players, and ridiculed the claim that Europe was the only section of the world to pr: duce musical artists. The leader then conducted an elaborate program of community singing. accompanied by the entire assemblage. Special “Ladies’ Day.” At the New Willard Hotel the Lion: Club held a special “ladies’ juncheon in honor of music, program was rendered by Frederick L./ Stephens, baritone soloist, with Byron Blodgett at the piand: Miss Marguerite Carter, viollnist, accom- panied by Miss Marjorie-Davis, and the Hudson Male Quartet. James P. Schick presided, and in a brief address appealed to the me: bership for its' undivided support in the musical activities now being car- ried out in the city, and in order that Director Lawrences might finish his concert at the Rotary Club to appear in person, extended the luncheon hour thirty minutes. On receipt of a message from Mr. Lawrence that this would be impos- sible, several members of the club :gg::!nnlo blhe enjoyment of the Y _presenting numbers. Rev. George F. Dudley pleased the large audience with two English costermonger numbers, Caleb O'Con- ner sang an original composition. “For I'm a Stenographer, Too,” and Mrs. Price led with an original verse to the club’s song, “Gee, I'm Glad I'm Lion. Seven beautiful baskets of flowers presented by George Schaffer were distributed to seven woman holders of lucky numbers. Subscriptions received yesterday for musical week activities included those from Willian L. Radcliffe, $100; T. C. Dulin, $25; Arthur C. Moses, $10, and James Sharp, $25. Steffen, is a work of art.
