Arens clutched it and cut the distance in two. Glichrist was summoned and went oves the line, and it did the New Britalnites' hearts good to see Arens kick the goal, “Again later Glichrist went over, and still this wasn't enough. The Hartford players were sore at heart and theree of them were hors de combat from exhaustion and the flerce onslaughts of New Britain, Time cut the visitors short, “The victory was celebrated in this city last night with red fire, fires, the blowing of horns, and the ringing of the old high school bell for hours at a time, It was a great blow to Hartford's pretensions, the New Britaln boys made the most of it.” The story was fllustrated by a line drawing of a player in the antiquat- ed costume of the time, which was the legend, “We are in it, all the while” Twenty-five years change players, customs, and news- paper English, but the Hartford- New Britain rivalry defles all time, .

It is logical to assume that if a musician can play or sing well enough, he would be a professional; but that does not work out when the musiclan already has a good paying | position and doesn’t care to embark on professional playing that might not offer greater financial rewards |and might interfere with a pleasant home life, This of course does not necessarily apply to the business of | heing a great artlst, but does apply to the average good performance of musie, | Some of the most important com- [ posers fn America today, wWhose SONgs are SUng on ever) stage,.are not professional musiclans, but they are good musiclans, know- ing more about the technics of the art than the performers of their works, and another in Philadelphia.

Few allvelihood and there $8 no great dif- ference between, teaching the | piano for a regular living and com- | posing music as an avocation, and being a chemist and composing as an avocation, as Borodin did.

One likes a change in mental vision, and the man who wrestles” with music all day or at night for a living usually has 2 hard time in adding hours more o the same kind of work to his daily fare. That's why a department It is the | store official in Chicago is such a fine § composer—he uses music as some- thing different to occupy his mind in the evening, just as some people play chess or cards. The profes- sional card player doesn’t care for! card games in his spare time. Getting back to amateur orchestra, or amateur singers in choirs and choruses, it behooves the public to give them encouragement and not be ! too eritical.
