NIGHT and to-morrow night in Central Park the New York| Community Chorus treats the city to a second Song and Light Festival. The first, held just a year ago, has already gone down as one of the bright, particular memories in the annals of New York's favorite ‘playground. This time, besides the singing of the regular choruses, including one thousand specially trained children, and the extraordinarily beau- tiful lighting scheme which, it will be remembered, turned the park by night into a place of wonders, there will be the added interest of a soldiers’ chorus made up of men from the Seventy-first and Twenty- third New York Regiments, now in the Federal service. What the Community Chorus has done in the city is well known. Since the nation went to war, however, this society of communal singers has been busy with far-reaching plans to bring the joy ahd) inspiration of their kind of music to the men in camp and to the armies we send overseas, Organized as the United States Committee on Music for the Army and Navy, directors of the Community Chorus movement are putting song leaders to work in Uncle Sam’s great camps and wherever possible among the sailors. ‘i Whether among men bound to the dull monotony of training, or among those nearer the front, it is plain that music of this sort is certain to be a constant comfort and blessing. Furthermore, when the war is over the singing habit of the nation’s soldiers should turn naturally into the greatest impetus ever given to popular musical expression in the United States. The Mayor’s Committee on National Defense has recognized in| the Community Chorus a powerful aid in the task of Americanizing | alien elements in this city. ¥ Along with all this, the Community Chorus is one of the best | and biggest entertainers going.

Speaking of music, the Times notes that nothing has been heard of late from foolish persons who would have German works barred from the Metropolitan Opera stage the coming | ‘season. We hope all such folk have found something better to fret about. Why, in the name of reason, because a Prussian dynasty | has played the devil with Germany, should the music of Richard | Wagner, who died thirty-one years before the present conflict began, suddenly become hateful in American ears?
