Relations" This is the second lecture in
course of five given by Miss Frank on
social ana literary topics
AS prelude 10 the lecture yesterday she
spoke of legends concerning the coming OF
music among men, and she told the pretty
yet sad story OF Jubal, who, after bringing
music into the world, wandered away in
search OF greater things than he had al

returned 10 his own people, who were

clared himself, told the peop who he
was. and they, not believing him, killed
him. She then reviewed the well-known
story Of Orpheus and spoke OF ST. Cecelia.

and satisfies one, and surely of ali arts
