with a grain OF salt but a single visit
to some of the native churches during
a service, would doubtless change
these ideas.
The fact is that the Hawa!iaHs are
one Of the most musical peoples IN
the world. Almost every individual
seems to be q torn musician" wFh
splendid voice and a passionate fond
ness for music. Most Of them have
had some musical training In the
public schools, and come are accom-
plished musicians In the higher sense
Of the term. For many years there
has been a sentimental idea that the
Amedican negro is a musical animal
but to one who knows. the true ca
pacity of the negro. ami then hears
the Hawaiians sing there is no room
for comparison. The average negro
has not much more than q sense OF
rhythm, and sometimes q pleasing
voice, while the Hawaiian understands
what he produces. and no expression
Of sentiment or feeling in music es-
capes him.
II Hawaii could have the services
for a few years OF some really big
musical director-One with the fac
ulty or organization and capacity for
hard work well developed-there is
scarcely a dorbt that most mag
nificent chorus would he the result.
Whether such an attempt world prove
a financial success is a matter oi
some doubt. but there Is little question
of IT'S artistic quality.
