Farrell, who is soon to give | a piano recital in this city, A. A. Van De Mark, struck the following patri- otic note: : In my work along musical lines recognize as a citizen what I owe mj fellow citizens: in other words, if I wish to he deeply and broadly patri- oleT it is my duty to show preference to the American artist rather than to to the foreign.” Shrewd manipulators and overzealous methods used in pro- moting concert activities favorable to the foreign artist and against the rights and privileges of the American artist should be corrected by a greats er infusion of devotion to the princi- ples of citizenship. The average American forgets ‘that it was not ‘Wagner, Verdi, Mozart and Beethoven who made their respective countries musical, but rather that these coun- tries prodyced the composers. We Americans’ have been neglecting our own talent to chase the will-o’-the- wisp of a foreign label. We have paid to the foreign artist thousands of dollars which might have been used to better advantage on developing our own musicians. America will become truly musical when it cares more for the art than the artist;swhen it be- comes democratic enough to give true credit to ability wherever found; when it is loyal enough to support art for art’s sake. ‘We need to keep continually before our own eyes and ever flashing before the public eye and ringing in the pub- lic ear the fact that we have a coun- try to be proud of. It is ever more necessary for us who are by birth and descent Americans not to throw away our birthright and wander back to bow down before the alien god that our forefathers forsook. True patri- otism means America first, last and all the time. I take great pleasure in announcin the first American series of concerts by all American artists, I WILL RAISE COMMUNITY CENTER FUND TO $6,000 The mass meeting held Wednesday night at the Community Center for Girls on Main street proved one of the most enthusiastic gatherings ever hel at the club.
