Mr.. Thomas for his temperament and
feeling. He is composer and his COM
positions have given him considerable
lame His long association with Mr.
Thomas has made his popularity fitted
TO lead the orchestra, for he understands
what Mr.. Thomas tries to 60 better than
any other man with the orchestra. OF
him and his work the Chicago Tribune
says:
An enjoyable feature of the last two
concerts of the orchestra has been the
opportunity they have afforded the steady
gain Mr. Stock is making in the art of
conducting. The young leader was I'M
sure of himself last season, and the ten
sion under which he worked resulted in
stiffness and lack of the power TO domin-
ate his men.
But experience and study have clearly
brought confidence; he now directs with
ease and freedom of gesture-having evil
dntly taken Mr.. Thomas ~ a model in
dignity and repose, and better could not
be found-controls his men quietly but
firmly, and begins TO show that he has
the needed attributes of temperament and
spirit.
He is given what in certain respects is
the most difficult and tricky part of the
conducting TO do-that of accompanying
the soloists. Only one rehearsal is pos
sible, the soloist invariably has his own
idea how the work should be played. is
liable to take all kinds of liberties and
is ever ready to lay at the conductor s
door all responsibility for any mishsps.
Mr.. Stock by the manner in which he
accompanied the Chopin Concerto last
week-and Mr.. Gabrilowitsh took it with
much freedom in tempo-and also by
the way in which he managed his men
yesterday. when Mr.. Steindel was playing
showed that he is capable of high class
work, and makes certain that the orches-
ira, when left in his hands for out OF
town work, will not suffer any loss In
reDrtatiOn.

Before leaving Redwood Falls
early last week Mayor Garlock of
Walnut Grove inspected our North
Redwood granite and recommended
it's use for the stone facings to be
used in the new block which is be-
ing erected in Walnut Grove, and
in which Mr.. Garlock is interested.
The block is to cost $4,000. The
specifications for the new building
require that this stone come from
Indiana, but after inspecting the
North Redwood granite Mr.. Garlock
came to the conclusion that it was
not only fully as handsome, but
was also nearer home and more ac-
cessible. Mr.. Garlock contends
that the granite at North Redwood
is not we'll enough advertised and
that if the proper publicity were
given to it three could be no doubt
but what the proprietors would
have orders sufficient to keep them
with large crew of men, busy all
the time.
