MT. MAX bdufnelSJer IN a recent
- copy of the Council Bluffs
Nonpareil. The editor of the Nonparen evil
IDENTIFY thought the article worth serious
consideration, for he gave 1t a most prom
inent top-of-column place in the paper and
set the heading in large and attention
compelling type. The title was whats
the Matter with Musical Council Bluffs?''
Mr.. Baumeister has always been known
to the writer as a vtolinst and teacher of
pronounced standing. but judging from his
literary effort. his talents along that line
are being hidden. He should be writing
regularly for the cause of music. He is
logical, analytical, comprehensive in his
style, and his words glow with the warmth
Of life. Speaking Of the musical depart
ment OF the Woman's club OF Council
Bluffs he alludes to the fact that its leader
recently impaired the sad news that at
their last musical offering. after securing
the services of good talent, they were re-
warded with an attendance of eight per-
sons! These recitals," saith Mr., Bau-
meister, ARE free to club members!"
.
Mr.. Baumeister then proceeds to ask
What excuse can an organization like
that advance for its existence? Does an

cause of music? He states that he is of
the opinion that the influence OF an in
stitution, when 1t has so little virility
within itself that It cannot create more
earnest enthusiasm for classic music than
our Woman's Musical club appears to be
able to effect, it loses its very right TO an
existence"
He continues with the remark THAT this
J musical club In its nraaant oopdftton oots
as before stated in a demoralizing manner
insofar that 1t cheapens good music. It
has drifted to where good things must go
begging for an audience. People pay dearly
every day in the week for trashy, mean
ingless music. and music that requires
talent and brains TO interpret is offered
gratuitously to empty chairs. The next
thing that will be in order is to present
a souvenir to all patrons of art who kindly
eondescend to grace the performance with
their presence. 1t is a human trait that
things which can be had for the asking
are not appreciated"
The above remarks deserve very earnest
consideration. as do also the following
For Mr.. Baumeister lays the blame on
others as well as on the aforementioned
club. He says; Right here I would like
TO ask, why do artists who nave spent
years in attaining their proficiency per-
form at all under any circumstances (un-
less 1t be for a humane purpose) without
remuneration? Certainly, there are many
mediocre players who are always anxious
to spring into Publicity, and who like 10
see their names in print, who will play
and sing for a dish Of ice cream and cake,
but why do musicians Of ability ever in
eTiminats themselves with this class OF
mountebanks2"
.
How do you like that? That sounds Xix

to Council Bluffs and is obliged to play to
an almost empty house. Think of it!'
o.
Yes, Mr.. Baumeister. we have thought
Of It. Not this case only, but many
others. In the still watches of the night
we have thought OF 1t. We nave sor-
rowed over 1t. We lave had heartaches
over it. And something tells US to re-
member that when the strife is fierce
the battle long, Comes on our ears the
distant triumph song, And hearts are
brave again and arms are strong;
Allelulia." We have thought over 1t, yes.
and we are thinking over it now, and we
hear the words:
Be strong! We are not here to play, to
dream. TO drift;
We have work to do and loads to lift;
Shun not the struggle, face II, tits
Gods gift. Be strong!
Be strong! Say not the days are evil
shame! ~
Stand up, speak out, and brayely. in
Gods name. Be strong!
For the encouragement Of Mrs. Mary
Learned, president of the Tuesday Morn
ing Musical club of Omaha, MI. Baumeis-
ter's allusion thereto is given: Before
/ conclude, I would further like to say
uAoN SASA WGdluly ORGANIZATIONS as the
Elks club of this city and the Tuesday
morning Musical club of Omaha ought to
begin to realize that 1t is not proper to
ask professional people to take part I'm
their programs without compensation. I
read with much satisfaction In last Sum
days Bee that the moving spirits OF the
tuesday Morning Musical have de-
clded that the club must be reorSanized
In order to raise more funds, so that
artists can be engaged and paid in a
commensurate manner"
The musical editor Of The Bee rejoioes
with Mr.. Baumeister that there Is an
awakening. He himself has suffered
from this attitude OF people towards pro-
fessionals.
while his writings have been always con-
sistent with Mr.. Baumeister's position. II
Is also true that his professional attitude
has been a constant protest against the
musician running into all places where
there was a platform and an audience
merely to get before the public"
For this he has received his share of
oaiumny, abuse and Misrepresentation
publicly and privately. but he has stood
firm. Those who know" have stood with
him, the GLORIOUS God-Given Noble Few.
and he who cares for the opinions Of
others is a guileless. but none the less eff
fectual fool.
MI Baumeister closes with a tribute To
those who have held out and refused 10
degrade themselves and their art. "
These musicians" he says. have done
a notable service In raising the standard
Of art and a rising vote of thanks is due
them" THOMAS j. KELLY.
