Gilman takes all these things and himself
very seriously, and sometimes he Is right.
He Ia. like most OF the critics who expend
their entire force on the present. deficient
in a sense Of proportion. He writes too
little about Bach and Beethoven to realize
that Mr.. MacDowell is not nearly 30 great
a parsonage as the music critic of the Even
inc Post says he is, and that 1t matters not
at all what Arnold Dolmetsch thinks he
thinks about modern music. 1t seems to
indicate the presence Of pefervid imagina-

.splendid fantasies and 1t argues want
OF the saving sense Of humor to heap praise
on De Lara's -Messaline' as music
drama But there is much readable mat
ter in this volume. and Mr.. Gilman writes
with sincerity. His best essay, because it
pleads for a fundamental idea In music
