By HENRIETTA M. REES. O YOU remember that love- ly drama by Jerome K. Je- rome, which Sir Forbes Robertson made his own called the “Passing of the Third Eloor Back?" So re- freshing and idyllic, and like a breath of fresh air after some of the plazs one sees. Do vou remember the typical boarding house before the Third Floor Back came into it, how dingy it was and how sordid the lives of the people who lived there? Yet the very first night the stranger was in their midst the transforma- tion begun. These people were not really bad people, they were simply inarutof the unpleasant things, and instead of mastering their environ- ment, the environment was rap- idly mastering them. Then the Third Floor Back came into their lives, and, oh, what a change it made. The cad went in for decent enter- tainment, “to give pleasure without vulgarity,” the artist did not debase his talent, but lived up to his ideals of the best. The, wealthy, retired “bookie,” in- stead of spending his money on vain ersonal desires, became an “art pa- on,” and the poor relation of the nobllit{ became instead the rich h b / . from so many walks of life who hap- * for every possible occasion. aunt of her nearer but neglected rela- tives. He even brought sunshine into the life of the lonely little servant, and gave her food for thought, some- thing to live up to and to enrich her life. Everyone with whom he came in contact was influenced for the bet- ter, because he appealed to their nobler selves, helped them to look beyond the petty annoyances to the bigger and higher sides of life, and led them to think clearly and to live up to the best that was in them. He never lectured or criticised the small things; his work was entirely done by an almost subconscious sug- gestion. It is rather a peculiar play, with the principle character unnamed. He was simply called by the location of his room, and nobody knew who he was nor whence he came. I happened to be reading this over the other day, and was idly wondering about him. Who was he, anyway? Who could so easily and so remarkably effect so many different kinds of people, pened to be living in proximity to one another? E Then of a sudden this thought came. He wasn’t a person at all, ust an impersonation. Why wasn’t he the impersonation of_ active par- ticipation and co-operation in good music locally? For once this comes into a community «nd lives right with the people, it has much the same ef- fect. Could this have been the se- cret of his identity? I wonder. AL Her Omaha friends will be inter- ested in the following newspaper comments of the Boston recital of Miss Frances Nash, and which were selected for several similar ones: Boston Transcript, Nov. 15.—Miss Nash played yesterday at Steinert hall in a ‘way that proved her mettie for accomplisn- ment and her love of her art. Indeed, from present indications, the fame of Miss Nash is likely o increase in other ways than advertisement, for. she. played an introdue- tory recital with an eager warmth and an enthusiastic instinct for music whioh kept ber, audience continually and music- ally alive to what she had to tell them. She has an inborn musical understanding, and not an acquired substitute for it—an understanding which brings in patural suit, intelligent phrasing, and stressing, and generally sound interpretation. Miss Nash plays always in her own way of individu- ality, self-sufficiency, and good senee. She does mot labor over Lisatian difficulties, and, what is rarer, she does not flaunt them but alwiys plays them with some ease, with warmth, and with beauty of tone. Where others would resort to brilliant ac- complishment, she reveals engaging light- ness and taste of sturdy volume. She has a fine reserve force and never becomes so Intoxicated by it as to call upon It Miss _ Nash's natural warmth of feeling must mestgon- geal in the romantic ardors of Chopin and Lisst. Boston Globe, Nov. 15.—Miss Nash's play- ing shows pleasing qualities and denotes a musical nature. ‘There is spontanlety and freedom iu expression. It s & reller to sit before a player who does not take the plano too seriously. It is possible that its several contemporaneous inventors and its present makers Intended the instru- ment should give pleasure, Elasticity in tempo is a gift to be grateful for. Miss Nash also has an agreeable toucm, variea and expressive. She was warmly applauded. e The Auditorium is conducting a purely nebular Course of Concerts un- der municipal auspices this season. Godowsky appeared there in this man- ner in October, and last Thursday evening Julia Claussen, the famous contralto, gave a perfectly hypotheti- cal recital there before an audience composed of politicians, public and buttermilk. So far this course has been entirely successful from a con- templative and anticipatory point of view, and future announcements of great artists to appear upon this de- cidedly unusual course will be awaited with speculative and, shall one say, an astral interest? it VP “The good that men do lives after them.” The other day Mr. Simms showed me a letter written to him by Mr. Landsherg after a concert by the Musical Art society, which Mr. Simms was then conducting. It was a note of sincere appreciation and thanked Mr. Simms for the pleasure the music and its presentation had given him, A little appreciation from fellow artists often helps a long way. in the musical world, where the most that is accom- plished is done for love of the work rather than hope of great remunera- tive compensation. Mr. Landsberg | often wrote these little notes of appre-| ciation, and they were always greatly | appreciated by the recipients. Musical Notes. The cholr of All Saints’ church, under the | dlrection of J. H. Stmms, will give a big once a month, to which all | rs are cordially invited.

Omaha musical circles were very deeply apd sadly shocked at the death of Sigmund Landsberg. He had lived many years in Omaha, and was widely known in the state and abroad. He was constantly compos- ing, and his work was published and sold. It was played alike by stu- dents and artists. Hardly any of us, his friends, but have a song with his ornate and original autograph, which we treasure. Sigmund Landsberg might have been quite a rich man if he had not sold “Dry Yo' Eyes” for fifteen dol- lars to a publisher. Thousands of copies have been sold, and the attrac- tive air has been arranged for almost every combination of voices and sung far and wide. Strange to relate, this song lay for cight years before it came into the ranks of the best sell- ers. Mr. Landsberg used to tell about it, and he called his little story “The Physcology of a Song.” It in- terested him to observe how the whimsical thought of a morning could rise to such a burst of popu- larity. He could never quite com- pass the exact explanation of this particular happening, but would shake his head and laugh, and say, “Well, that's the way it goes!” I have the pleasure of remembering that on two Saturdays this summer he gave little picnic parties at our place in the Florence hills. He said he enjoyed the grass, and the green trees. He played through a score of “Parsifal,” which was lying on the piano in the music room, and looked at several books on musical subjects, but it was the great out-of-doors that he reveled in—the air, the area of space, and the great gniet. 1 am particularly indebted to him for helping me arrange Wilbur N. Nesbitt's “Flag Song,” which was sung by a quartet at the unveiling of the Fontenelle portrait. The Co- lonial Dames of Nebraska appreci- ated his enthusiastic and kindly ef- fort. The hymn added greatly to the ceremony. The Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben were grateful to him for many tuneful hours. He told me that he enjoyed so much conducting his opera on gala occasions, He had many threads of friendship woven in various pat- terns, and it is hard to understand why he chose suddenly to leave everybody and everything dear to him, and go out into the great un- known. He was a jolly, sunny, little man. Certainly gri¢f did not seem to belong to him. I suppose he got to the place where he couldn’t smile any more; tears and depression he couldn’t stand. Well. we wish him peace and a haopy issmne out of all his difficnlties. He will be missed bv those he left behind who are still marching along the dustv road. MARY LEARNED.

It was the bravery and devotion of this man which has saved to the world the greatest violinst of our time and one of the finest artists of all times, Kreislér's regiment was sent to the front August 19, 1914, and immediately went into battle. They were holding a line of trenches near Lemberg. Telling the story of how he was wounded and rescued, Kreisler has said: “Without doubt, I owe my life to my orderly. The trenches my regi- ment was holding were rushed by the Cossacks on the night of September 6. The cavalry only dares attack en- trenched infantry st night when they have some protection from rifle fire. It was about 11:30 when they at- tacked us, “I can remember being hit by one horse and knocked down. While I lay I saw a second Cossack reach down to finish me. He wot me in the hip, but as he struck me I' fired m revolver., I remember seeing him (afl and the riderless horse gallop on. Then I became unconscious. y or- derly retired with the rest of the com- pany. After the fighting had moved on he came back and started to look for me, using a pocket flash lamp to examine the faces of the dead and wounded. He says that several times he was nearly caught by Cossack pa- trols, but escaped dropping to the ground, where he was taken for wounded or dead. He found me about 3 a. m, so I must have been lying there about four hours. “He says 1 was lying on the dead Cossack who had wounded me, and that T must have grappled with him and then used him for a pillow. He gave me some brandy and revived me and then assisted me back to our lines o e Operating Plans Of the Bankers . Realty Company Continued From Page Eight—E.) ‘The buying public, which has seen practically every other line revolu- tionized by the injection of modern and efficiency methods into its busi- ness, has wondered why the builders have been so slow in meeting the de- mands for better building service. They had come to the conclusion that the building business-could be entirely revised by means of an adjustment | here and a rearrangement there. Such, however, 1s not tne case. If| it were the builders would have long ago eliminated the waste and the methods of inefficiency and uncer- tainty of 'an older-day building method. Finally, builders making a study of the situation recognized that the two important elements to be considered were co-operation and organization. From the careful study of the difficul- | ties was evolved what is known as| “The Modern Building Organization.” And those concerns which were in a position to adopt this plan have dem- onstrated to hundreds of satisfied building owners that there is a way to conduct a large building operation, or a large number of smaller building operations, that is both efficient and economical. : The difficulty, the investors found, | was in the fact that so many different | professions and trades were necessary | to the construction of a large building. Of the former, eight or more are re- quired, while forty-six or more differ- ent trades are necessary to Ithe com- pletion of a large building. To these must be added the services of men intimately acquaifited wtih the many kinds of materials, products, devices, etc. It can be seen, from this, that the building business, as a whole, is prob- ably one of the most complicatéd in existence today. AN The Modern Building organization does not attempt to weld all these into a whole; it does not attempt to equip itself with the facilities for construct- ing everything in the way of a bu)ld-i ng. When the Bankers Realty Invesl-‘L ment company adopted its plan of| Modern Building organization, it did not equip itself to do marine building, nor buildings peculiar to the Atlantic or Pacific coasts. But it did study the needs of, and place itself in position, ~—~Flowers— Dinner Our “mums” are excep- tionally beautiful this sea- son. They will add much to the pleasure of your Thanksgiving dinner.

Its Field Grows. Originally conceived as a purely local company, the business of the Bankers Realty has now spread to half a dozen of the trans-Mississippi states. The head offices are in the Bee building in Omaha and here the general officers of the organization are to be found. But there is also a big office in Kansas City from whence the company’s business in Kansas and Missouri is handled. The Nebraska and Jowa business is handled from Omaha, as is also the business of the company in South Dakota. For the Ida C.
