In speaking a word on the occasion of
this great musical festival l wish to say in
the first place that i only hope II may be
given to me to listen long enough TO you
to make me feel that there has been atone
ment FOR requiring me to speak at all. All
that has interfered with my enjoyment has
been the fact that 1 had to make an ad-
dress; but as am to make one I want to
say just one thing moro. l feel that
the men of this association and OF kindred
associations are not only adding to the COM
mon fund of pleasure, but are doing gen.
uine missionary work of needed kind
when they hold such festival as this.
wish that everywhere In our country We
could see clubs and associations including
al our citizens, of the character that go to
make up the society which has furnished
the reason for the assembling of this great
audience tonight. No greater contribution
to American social life could possibly be
made than by Installing into ii the capacity
Tor committeeman. No greater good can
come to our people than to encourage In
them capacity for enjoyment which shall
discriminate sharply between what IN
vicious and what has pleasure In IT.
Nothing can add more to our capacity for
healthy social enjoyment than by fo-,,e Of
example, no less than by precept, by en-
couraginS the formation of societies which
by their cultivation of music, vocal and in
strumental, give a great lift to the artistic
side. the eSthetic side of our nature and
especially is that true when we remember
that no man is going to go very far wrong
IL he belongs to a society where he can
take his wife with him to enjoy It, So YOU
see, gentlemen, / hail you as missionaries
alike from the estheuc and the moral
standpoint.
Now. people OF Baltimore. in thanking
you, congratulate you upon the success
and the spirit with which you have carried
out the details of the reception given to the
SaengerfeSt Association during these DAYS
ana TO you, the members of the association,
l have to say only that / greet YOU and
that as President of the people I wish YOU
all prosperity and increasing growth from
this time on.
