What was the cause OF his aberra-

He is German musician. He was
in Hackensack once, playing the
piano. Mosquitoes were thick; they
got on his music sheet and he unob-
servedly played the mosquitoes for
notes. The harmonies resulting were
more beautiful than any he had ever
heard before. He became enraptured,

repetition was impossible. Ever since
then he has been seeking for the
