WINS PRAISE
As ORGANISE
De Witt C. Garrstson Scores
at Utica, n. Y.

Local music lovers will note with
interest the successfully rendition OF
Memberships fEiftah," in Grace
church, Utica, by q chorus under the
direction OF Dewitt G. Garretson,
who was formerly organist- of st. Pc
ter's Episcopal church of this city.
One of the Utica newspapers has the
following to say about the occasion:
Hundreds of persons heard Men
d~elssohn's Elijah which was sung
last evening In Grace church. every
seat In the auditorium, as we'll as
all the available standing room, be-
ing occupied. The o~ratoria was
given by a chorus of sixty voices,
made up of the men and boys choir
of the church. and was under the d.
direction of Dewitt C. Garretson, Or
ganist.
UNLESS it be the Messiah" there
is probably no oratorio SO well
known as this one of Mendelssohn's,
which Is one of his best works, and
to give it a worthy rendition requires
not only a strong chorus and capable
soloists, but a large amount OF train
ing and a clear understanding of
the theme. The way In which 1t
was sung last evening reflect only
credit upon those who participated,
for it was given with beautiful In
depreciation, and from beginning to
end no flaw was apparent to those
who listened. To direct such a cho-
rus it, in itself, a sufficient task, but
to direct while at the organ, as Mr..
Garretson did last evening, and as
is his custom with the regular work
of the choir, is a tremendous piece OF
work and deserves especial recogni-
ton. The organ is especially beau
ttful in the overture, which follows
the reeitatiye pronounefng the curse.
Beginning with the faintest piana-
missimo, 1t gradually becomes more
impressive, picturing the need OF the
people and all which is to follow. and
finally leading into the chorus Help
Lord, Help" The ensemble was re-
markedly good, the chorus, He,
Watching Ger Israel" being partic-
ularly effective. The closing chorus,
"Then Shall Your Light Break
Forth" was a brilliant climax to the
work.
''The ~soloists were Mrs. e. r.
Comstock, Miss Helen Winant and
Miss Louise Day, sopranos; Mrs.
Russell Wheeler and Miss Emmeline
Munson. altos; Edward Lloyd, tenor;
William Stroble and r. o. Morris,
The solos we're given with
all the beauty and expression which
they demand, and were a most i'm
pressive part of the oratorio."

PUBLIC OPINION

EDITOR EVENING NEWS
Much criticism has been express
ed by the autoists of the county re-
xarding the defeat of the Edge Bill
In the Senate especially the portion
relating to Reciprocity, In as much as
no n owning an automobile, who
may sometime care to so outside the
state can see the fairness of such re-
fusal, the point of the entire matter
Is this: ANY one licensed in any
other states of the United States has
the right and privilege to travel
through practically every other state
without fee Or annoyance, excepting
New Jersey, where $1.0O is charged
for that privilege which entails nc
end OF red tape and annoyance.
But the New Jersey auto owner
must pay at least $1,000 in addition
To his home fee for touring outside
the state. 1t sounds very we'll theo-
reticalIy to say that the visiting auto
must help pay the road tax. Last
year under the. present conditions
they contributed the vast sum of ST.
000 out of ~S1,000,000 to be spent,
but $50 autoists living In MiddleseS
County paying taxes, and a good fan
proportion of the road tax must pay
S18,S00 for the privilege of driving
= a in New Jersey and New York.
In other words the present law makes
b man living in New Jersey pay $40
to travel in any other state, while q
member of any other state can come
to New Jersey for $500. Who's be-
ing stuck; and why? Because OF
good roads 1t is mentioned but does
anybody who has toured the other
states compare the narrow poor
roads we are supposed to be enjoy
Ing to-day with the magnihcently
built and kept roads of Massachusetts
and Connecticut New Jersey has
had for years q reputation for good
roads and Il has been deserved but
the time has come where today a
plumber of states are on an equal
IL not az advanced plan Of road-mak-
ing and maintenance.
1t is very well for the $50 a~utoists
In this county to complain and be
discouraged at the pills they are be-
Ing made to swallow, but By organi-
cation and unity only can things be
brought to bear which win give them
a right TO be heard and some fair
consideration which at present they
are not getting. The next meeting OF
the Middiesex Auto Club win be in
New Brunswick on February 20,
1911. Already a large number of
