Mr.. Dooley, Jr., the creation of a

Concerning Grand Concerts.
Twas a gr-reat musical festival they
mad over at tn Hall last week, Mr..
Hennessy. | was ther-re the otherre
night and heer-rd it and know. IT
had tn CANINE of SeVen-up skint a
nile AN tn manager looked at each
)ne that came i'm in n way that seem d
to sa another dollars in me pocket, .
m he just walked about an look d
is big as he could FIR he knew that
he was winning all tn time an he
wasn't afraid of bein' STINT to Jail f'r
{ neither.
They did lots of advertizin'. so as
tlet us all know it w'd be a
gr-rand concer-at and ivry body
was ther-re. TIL big muck
tide mucks an all tn others, too. An
her-re wasn't music that WASH
classical. All tn wur-ruds wer-re
sung in Dutch and in Italyun, which
TO a chune better when he don't have
% trouble with tn Wur-ruds. An
.Vry one listen'd an tr-ried to look
ike he was enjoyin' it, f'r folks will
make a mighty lot of fun of one an
say he don't know anything about
music, if you don't look like you ar-rc
enJoyin a rand Concer-rt, so we all
looked as knowingly as we could. An
when the gr-reat Basso numbered
nH fl
brought their gals along, listened in
wonder, an thought if they cd hollor
ike that, how much walking cd be
saved fr they Wd only have to go to
tn pastur-re gate to make ivry COW
IN pig f'r miles away hear 'em. An
IN gaIs-why they just went crazy
over tn Supranno part They had
aever-re hollorred like that, not even
when q mouse was bout.
An tn chuneS was gr-reat, but
then all chunes that ar-re chunes ARE
good chunes. Chimes amt like poly
ticks. When a man gifts out of poly
ticks he can live quiet and have
'r-riends. but if you git out of chune
in a Great OPERA, you lose your job
m ar-re apt to be put out tn hall.
Then, too q POLITICIAN wants iVry body
to sing tn same chune, while Mr..
Manager let them all sing a different
chune. an sing hard or sing soft, sing
one at tn time or all pitch in togeth-
er-re, until shingles on tn roof did
trimble. FIR he knew the pot was his,
an he knew ther-re was not a one
ther-re that wd dare stop lookin' or
w'd go out an say il was not fine. One
lady play'd fiddle in tn sweet ol'time
way, it was too sweet, so tn crowd
stop'd lookin' SO hard, FIR they knew
that want imported goods, but tn
kind thy'd been raised up with, an SO
they just sit back in ther-re seats,
crossed ther-re hands in their laps,
shut their eyes an let the good Of
chune STRIKE upon their hear-rt
str-rings. 1t did 'um good, but they
c'dnt talk about it afterwards. FIR
they had to do all their talkin's q re-
commendin' tn Imported article, so
as to show up all right.
Did it ever-re str-rike you, Mr..
Hennessy. that these musical concer-
rts ar-re like tellin' fr-rog stools firm
mushrooms in the country? You
know when you ARE lookin' mush-
rooms in tn countr-ry an come across
a doubtful one, tn way to do is to eat
it. If it makes you feel good an grow
fat, it was q mushroom all right, but
if it makes you sick and you must die
you will know it was a frog stool
and that you ought to have Thrown
IT away. just SO--lNTy Illlle one sees
TIL bill posts tellin' of musical concer-
rt, they wonder which it is tn kind
that livery one enjoys, or tn kind that
makes you sit up straight and try to
look like you ar-re enjoyin' it, an all
tn time you ar-re wonderin how
muchc longer tn programme is, an
what they ARE dom at home, an
wishin' you had stay'd at home your
rself, sayin' nothin' of havin' tn dol
lar back.
TIL Good Book says that Heven is
filled with music, an that tn angels
ar-re always singin' But I've been
tninkin' that it can't be classical
music they have uD ther-re an that
all their wur-ruds won't be imported
FIR we never hear tell of any of them
comm back dissatisfied.
Music is a great thing to make one
feel good an kind an happy Some
like rag-time while other-rs take a
softer soundin piece, but when it
comes to tn Grand Concer-rt Music
with all tn wur-rds impor-rted, we
ar-re all in tn same boat. You ought
to try it once, Mr.. Hennessey, FIR
ther-re's no teacher like experiences
but remember this-when you come
ava don't forget to sd it was Simply
grand, Fl that is the way to win out
as a PATRON of fine ART.
