Mayor Malone’s Address “Mother Superior, Sisters of the Convent, Ladies and Gentlemen: “I wish to / congratulate this young lady who constitutes the graduating class in music, and I congratulate the instructors in this sthool in the proficiency of their teaching. It is an honor to re- ceive a diploma from this institu- tion. It is one of the oldest and outstanding institutions of learn- ing in this state. It is a pioneer in the education of the womanhood of our state. The schools that are mow scattered hither and yon throughout the land have patented after this institution. It is the foundation upon which the great educational. superstructure is rest- ing. Our mothers and grandmoth- ers are among its alumnae, Its de- votion to the cause of education of the womanhood of Florida is one of the bright lights in our his- tory. That certificate of profi- ciency should be prized above all Your possessions, It represents not only your own studious efforts 2, * but it is the evidence of the un- selfish sacrifice of your parents and friends and the untiring and patient efforts of your instructors. “I want to’congratulate you on the subject of your choice. In this commercial and mechanical age, too little attention is paid to the finer arts. We have few great painters, sculptors or musicians, They are not among the profes- sions that bring the monetary re-, munerations. And yet they are the only things in life that sur- vive. David, the great singer and musician of Israel, has contribut- ed more toward the world’s hap- piness than all the wisdom of his gifted son, Solomon. We do not know who were the rich men of daughter} will continue to hold control of the trained minds of the world long after the wealthy Fords and Vanderbilts have been forgotten. “There is another phase of this subject upon which I wish briefly to touch. We have arrived at a stage in our industrial life when we can no longer utilize the pro- ductive labor of all the people. The machine is doing the work that men and women formerly did, And in order to readjust our economic life, men and women will work fewer and fewér days. This in turn will leave long hours of leisure on our hands. Did it ever occur to you what we will do with that leisure time? Shall it be spent in idle frivolity or in wick- ed sloth? The person who is train- ed in music, the person who has a talent for painting the person who can catch the poetic muse will in- deed be the favored among men. “It was because the ancients had a leisure class who were ambitious to stamp their personality upon the culture of the future, who were ambitious to live after the casket had hidden their faces, that we have masterpieces of art and muséic today, In the Palace of the Holy Pontiff in Rome, there hang the great paintings of Raphael. In the Sistine Chapel, the Last Sup- per hangs as an altar piece, a tri- bute to the Christian ‘piety of Michael Angelo. All made possible because these men had leisure time, ambition to work and the inspiration of genius. It would bankrupt the Vatican Treasury if these masterpieces had to be pro- duced and purchased today. “The art of music is even great- er than that of the brush, or of the chisel. Music charms the sav- age as well as the sage. It is }sweet to the illiterate as well as to the intellectual. It is soothing to the poor and weary, as well as the affluent and athlete. It brings a smile to the pallid face of the dy- ing and its martial strains impel the vigorous soldier to battle. “I would rather be a Chopin than Napoleon. I would rather be a Beethoven than a Kaiser. I would rather be a Wagner than be a Croesus. “Young lady, may I again con- gratulate and commend you. You have chosen a lovable art. Your training will always be a souree of happiness to you and to those about you. I trust that you will continue to pursue your studies until you fully arouse the genius that is within you, which has urged you on to attain your graduation. And may you ultimately shine among the great musicians of your day. Remember your art is a pleasant one. It is a privilege to give pleasure where there is pain, to soothe where there is a discord. ancient Rome and Greece, but we Congratulate yourself, therefore, know the great artists. We can see the wonderful pictures they paint- ed and the statues they carved. The choirs of the world still delight in chanting Beethoven’s masterpieces and Chupin’s lullabies, and they | as being one of the most fortunate. Give freely of your talent as you have freely received, always cher- ishing in your heart gratitude for the sacrifice and patience of your friends and instryctors.” Benefit Bridge-Luncheon Yesterday Grand Success Sponsored by the house commit- tee of the Club, the benefit bridge-luncheon attracted a large number of club members and others to the club house, 1307 Division street yesterday, where luncheon was served at 1 o'clock followed by bridge.
