thing for business men to take any
recreation as class that it is worthy
OF note. They are generally useful

more fun other people have the hard

Nxtionalism In Music.

It is a curious fact that 10 great na- uOnal music has ever been written among people living under a repub- ncan form of government The Swiss are, perhaps, the oldest example of a people living permanently under that regime. and there has never been a Swiss composer of any note or of even moderate ability. Against this 1t nGsy be urged that the American democ. facy IS unquestionably sui generis: that nothing like it has ever existed before. and that for this reason. being in position to make precedent for ourselves we need not necessarily con- fider democracy per SC as inimical to musical development. On the con- trary, the very variety of the clements which are now forming the American nation would argue In favor of tie possibility of the foundation Of na- tional school of music, which, in unit Ing the characteristics of many peo- pies, might in time develop into some thing broader and stronger. fresher, more vital and more spontaneous than anything the world has hitherto seen. Reginald de Koven in North Ameyi- can Review.

Skinny Boys and Chunky Girls,

In referring to thin boy it is all right to call him skinny" but you must call thin girl "spirituelle." It means tbe same, but sounds better Never call any one but boy "puny." A "puny" girl should be called frag- ile." It sounds more like delicate china, and all of that sex like to b. compared to fine Dresden.
