E A BY HENRIETTA M. REES. LL of you young pupils who 3 A have appeared and are appear- ; ing upon your teacher's annual program, gather around fro a moment and lets take a little inven- tory of your stock on hand? What have you learned in the year which has just gone by? Have you anything to show for the money and time that has gone? Was it invested and did it bear interest, or was it wasted? Do you recognize intervals and do you know anything about scales, except that they are? Have you learped to play or sing them smoothly and evenly, with every kind of touch or expression and in various combina- tions? Have you practiced seriously L and diligently upon the exercises | piescribed by your teacher? Have b you played them in all the keys you l© know? Have you done these blindly * and while bored to death, or have you I asked for and been given a reason for I doing them and become so absorbed in learning how that the time has simply flown? Have you found out why the reasons given are good reasons, and | have been proven the best and easiest in the long run? Have you had . studies for phrasing and velocity and L all sorts of useful training and while KO“ have spent your time upon them ave you really obtained the desired training? Or have you just skipped over them, done them half wrong and made {our poor fingers or voice try to work all alone whil alyour wits were woolrnthenn(? And Has your teacher {:u et it go when it was wrong, or has he checked you up and marked it and a’iven it back to be prepared more adequately? And then at the next lesson, did you bring back the , same old mistake, and perhaps for still another time? You know you paid the teacher three times for doing the same thing for you, if you did and it has cost you three times what it little phrase correctly. Perhaps you P out three other points that he con- sequently didn’t have time for. e Have you learned how to practice e most thoroughly and correctly, 80 as to accomplish the best and most in the least amount of time, and not to miss any of the manifold little I points which are likely to slip by, qr you just practice any old nly until your one or two hours are killed? Have 'you learned to read notes rapidly afid correctly? noting their time values at the same time gntl any other marks or fi(urh,)? ave you learned to count and to feel the constantly recurring rhythm? Do the meanmg of all the words and signs which you have met in the year's work, or do you just re- member the last two that you had last week? Isn't it easier to remem- ‘ber them than to look them up again :‘hen next you meet them? And meet em you surely will, and several more that will have to be looked up and added to them, Have you a dic- tionary of musical terms, or do you let them you? t. _happen to you. . you were walking nlon' the street and saw a si saying “Danger, ,&M‘v t past’ > ch are would be run over by a tfain or in or fall into a coal hole, and all the bystand| """ ers would think you were either craz; There are mu; gs, and musical it pays to know 1 doing.

The' Monday evening program will open | up with that grand and tuneful “Hear Un Svea” (Sweden) by G Wennerberg. This | Ia the same number that took Paris by | storm in the year 1867 when the Swedlsn Student Chorus was awarded the grand prize. When sung by a large chorus this composition is in & class by Itselt, and will leave a lnsting impression with its hearers. “Prayer in Time of Battle” by O. Lindblad in another wonderful tone picture, With its majestic and prayerful ‘endernoms und when the mecond basses bring forth thelr power- ful solo part you are carried away with its | beauty and strength. A number somewhat different in its conception is “To My Home" by Kromer in which the longing for home is most clearly plctured and beautifully | brought out. A _modern compouition by Korling. “On Guard,” has a swing that is inspiring and attractive and when the first tenors atrike the high “B" at the closs of the number you will admit with us that a modern composer can write music. Space will not admit to mention All the different numbers to be sung by the mass chorus of 500 men, but two more selections must not overlooked. What musiclan don’t know G s “Landsighting?” But we are mure very few, If any, have eard this grand compsition sung as it will at these concerts, The original will be used and when we think of with an orchestra of fifty piéces we commence to grasp what a treat is in store for us. This number alone Is worth the price of admission. The other number is a Swedish folksong. “Thou Anclent, Thou Glorious, Thou Fjell Crowned North" (Du gamla, du tria). The large mass chorus will “hum'" the Accom- paniment and Mr. Albert Lindquist will sing the obligato solo. This is n very deligate number and when sung with true conception ofdlh meaning a musical gem of the firat order. When it s recalled that all the #ongs sung by the mass chorus or the individual choruses, no music is used, you &t ofice realize the pomsibilities of a director when all the singers’ attention unhindered can be had. It may also be mentioned that .about twelve indfvidual choruses will appear on the program with select compositions, Of the thirty-six different socletles bclnn‘ln‘l to the western division of the union these twelve have bees for solo appear- ance and we can re red that they will give the very best h chorus naturaily wishes to be the Burely a musical i “al.l( is In store for Omaha, June 10 and 20, —— Muntesl Notes. ) The men of the Mendelssohn cholr wili have & rehearsal at the Army buflding this wfternoon at | o'clock.

There are ‘'war plays and war plays, just as there are dumdums and Maxim guns. But ever since “Secret Service,” the real war play that thrilled was not the one that shot off the most guns or reddened the most gore. No siree! It is the play with the spy that gives you the thrill and the. shivers, and is worth the price of admission as a piece of patriotism and detective mystery all rolled in one. Jt's curious how the current plays reflect newspapers. Now the'.obses- sion of spies is just current. When one is discovered in New Jersey an- other crops up in Missouri, and every one of them makes good reading mat- ter and may or-may not be getting too much information on coast defences or gun factories or the wireless. You can’t be too careful. This is just the point of “Inside the Lines,” first and most famous of the crop of war plays that have followed hard on the Euro- pean conflict spies. “Inside the Lines” is full of them, It specializes on spies. The New Yotk csitics called it “the best war play since “Secret Service.” That's why: Spy for a hero. Edward Lynch is the chap who plays a regular William Gillette spy role in “Inside the Lines” and gets away with it in regular Gillette fash- ion. Spy for a hero. But that's not the only spy in “Inside the Lines.” Not for a minute. It looks like all the cast were spies, from time to time. Spy for a villian, too, All of which is to indicate that this Euro- pean war news, where they arrest the royal family as spies when the stray princess or the unwary prince is ap- prehended without a passport, is get- ting on the American dramatists’ nerves and producing war drama with the punch in it, g There is big time stuff on the bill at the Empress this week. The man- agement has secured “The Happy Hottentots,” a musical comedy ex- travaganza that is not usually seen at the prices charged by the Empress. Maidie De Long is said to be the craziest base bafi bug ever captured. August and August, comedy jugglers, have time to be funny while doing difficult and clever jug?ling. The Musical McDonalds fill a one-da special engagement here. Harry !! Gardiner, the Human Fly, will be at the Empress Monday and for three days domg an act new in vaudeville, and at the same time telling how.and why he climbs the loftiest” skyscrap- ers with nothing to assist him but his will power and strong muscles. Also, starting Monday and continuing three days, will be Cl{arlie Chaplin in “The Fireman® his latest comedy.

The play will be “The Little Minister.” '?'his is the comedy in which Maude Adams established herself as a star and en- tered on a career that has been so wonderfully successful. —— “Too Much Married” is to be North Bros. Perpetual Stock company's of- fering for the week, beginning today at the Krug theater and to continue for ten performances. “Too Much Married” is a comedy with a kick, and was written by Mark Melfort for Nat Goodwin, who successfully played it. Sport North plays a doughty sea cap- tain called “Captain Midway,” while Roy E. Hilliard plays an up-to-the- minute stage undertaker, called “Car- raway Bones.” These two characters are the fun promotérs and Mr. Moody, Grandi, Roy and Steinel are all seen in good supporting roles. The femi- nine members are to be seen to none the less importance, for the characters enacted by Hazel McNutt, Ruth s TodayKlEfl Tonite “2:30 ARUM 8:20 For Ten Performances, E: .
