Review of the Week.


Little of unusual note has occurred in society
circles, except the coming and going of people
who have just ended just begin
ping their summer vacations. Many are
still absent and many yet are preparing
20 depart. A few basket picnics or moon
high: expeditions, together with an occasional
concert or evening party, given in honor of some
esteemed guest. seems to embrace the social
festivities of the past week To these may be
added few weddings, past or soon to be, which
create the usual interest among the friends and
relatives of the contracting parties.
There is a prevailing opinion among musicai
people that the coming winter will be filled with
much activity among the older societies. Inc
organization of one or more musical Dodles Is
contemplated While numerous concerts anu
operas will be given, much hard preparatory
work will be required. Raise the Standard IS the
motto casual consideration of the muslcal
status of indianapolis as it is now and was
years ago, will, however, show marked improve
ment The advance, though at times not rapid,
has been constant and of permanent nature.
1t is well; for, perhaps, no single influence has
more civilizing effect upon people that musical
culture. 1t elevates the thought, touches the
heart, recreates the:mind. While we boast of
Dur commercial, educational, and religious
opportunities, we should also be able to refer to
sur musical culture and advantages.
