house made simple. business-like an
nouncement and the applause that fol-
lowed it would have justified him in
pause of two beats occurred in the
Polonaise from "Mignon," and while

clapping of hands here and there over

with a banner, or placard, bearing the
motto: Now is the accepted time" or
Loud applause" or This is fairly
good-4oft pedal enthusiasm" Other
wise we are likely to fall into the
habit of cheering the crying babies TO
make them feel that they are not
sighted, or, as it threatened to happen
