tt isa sensible decision the cadets

It is a sensible decision the cadets
at West Point have come to, to
abandon hazing. 1t is foolish GUS
tom anywhere and particularly un-
worthy of the academy. For hazlng,
if you think of it, violates the oblisa-
tions of hospitality toward strangers
and the duty of the stronger to pro-
tect the weak, observes the Philadei-
phia Times. 1t is not quite gentle
manlike, and that ought to be enough
to condemn it. The decision to give
up hazing appears not to have been
entirely voluntary. The superlnteno-
ent has been Furnishing offenders SO
remorselessly that he has made good
behavior compulsory and after a
number of cadets had BEEN summary
dismissed the rest concluded that haz-
ing did not pay. This shows that the
suppression Of hazing was not, alter
all. impossible.

GALATIANS GRAND SYMPHONY
ORCHESTRA.

Surely Portland has every reason to be
proud of the Symphony orohestra which
has grown up In her mids. under tbs
With Its solid basis OF some of the best
Of our local talent strengthened by the
addition Of skillful musicians from
abroad. this orchestra gave q concert, the
first Of Its series, last evening at City
hall, under tn, auspices Of the Portland
lodge of Elks.
No more responsive or highly Appreci-
alive audience could have been Assem- bled
and every number WAS heartily encored.
The souvenir programme, with its cover
handsomely embossed, included an Or
der of music which appealed 70 the olsssi-
caily cultured and 70 the popular tastes
as well.
In the opening overture Raymond"
the orchestra showed srea. spirit an d
worked up to the climates by natural
and easily progressive steps. The string
work was dainty and there were delioaey
and refinement In the Interpretation OF
Love Song and 1.-The MILL" which
were gems Of the evening.
The body of tone In "Lohengrin' was
coed and large. fine shading and COM
mendable color effects marked the read
ing OF this always acceptable selection.
The brass showed to excellent advantage
In the march LA Refine da Sofa" and
IL was. perhaps. the must brilliant num-
Der on the programme. While referring
to the brass, It should 'be noted that
throughout the evening the wood wind
players sang their phrases with great
dslicaoy and grace OF ton".
The descriptive fantasia "Columbus, -
was most effectively interpreted. The sy-
tably beautiful was the moment sntitlsd
"On the Vast Waters."
Mir. Carl Oster berg's Caprice Hong
roise," was a wonderful piece OF exsou-
ton. His work has been praised many
times In this column, and his phrasing
In the Evening Star Song" from Tam
hauser-an encore number-was truly
delightful.
Malta proved to be a charming com :
set of when as u finale the "American
Republic" was given with snap, vim
and energy.
The soioist, MIR. Hastings. has pure
baritone voice and he sings true to the
pitch. The Torsador Song from CArHen
won for him a recall, and responding he
sang In pleasing way "Father
O'Flynn." His selected solo, Dream"
was rendered In good taste and the i'm
preston made By Hastings was favor
able one.
Mr.. Callahan conducted with ease and
arace and the orchestra responded to bis
every movement. The affair was indeed
a musical treat and the orchestra begins
its tour with every prospect Of . decided
success.
Thu committee OF arrangements last
evening were Elmer q. 6erriah. George
