Miss Hannah Crowell then made a mpst impressive forceful speech, in which she placed befors the members | gy of -the association the thoughts' and& ideas recently adopted at the last meeting of the executive committee, It had secured, she stated, that the music association would be one place where we might find relief from the|- thoughts. of war which come to-us everywhere else—that ‘we might find in music, forgetfulness for a little, from the grim realities of battle, but, now like the falsé notes in the won- derful Strauss music, like the discords, as the Huns went to battle, even though we here turned from dwelling on the war, we are forced to think of it, ‘We are an organization of 260 mem- bérs, financially strong, and thriving; an enocrmous amount of work has gone to. build up our prosperous society— and now the "question has atisen, whether we shall go about our meet- Vvear, or change our plans to meet the new situation? It means that our com- mitiees have to give themselves to the hard work of the orginization there- y taking time and labor from the pa- triotic work which, under .the war burden, they ought to be deing. It seems as though it is a time for self-denial, and. that a change of poli- to permit us all to give more time to sterner duties. Under the pressure of such sober thoughs, therefore, the executive com- mittee offered the followipZ resolu- tion Whereas, all patriotic people called upon to bend their energies di- rectly toward the ’winning of world- war, ‘Whereas, the routine work of a larger organization, such as the Nor- wieh Music association, demands the time of a number of individuals, if it is suceessfully accomplished, & ‘Whereas, many of the altruistic aims of our association can only be pur- sued by times of peace, Therefore, Be it resolved: (1) That the stated monthly meet- ings of the association be discon~ tinued for one year. (2) Tkat the present membership of the aésociation be continued, and that no dues be required during the season 1918-1919. t (3) That severa] meetings be held in the year under the auspices of the Hmlll!illllfll!lll!lflfllflllfllfllflllfll{flflff(fif annual |- ings as usually planned, this coming|inating committee nominated cy is ‘advisable for the coming year,| g, arel erick Cranston. the| hoard, Mrs, Robert Perkins, GIRLS!
