Germany of a hundred wears ago was
very different from the Germany Of to-day
1t was a mass OF little kingdoms and
duchies, each one Independent OF the other,
and each one trying 10 keep mp what royal
state il could on an income smaller than
many Americans. who are not thought 10

whole world must be grateful 10 them. for
In them was Graded the wonderful music
Of the fatherland
In those days people didn't have so many
things 10 amuse them as they do to-day
and the means of communication were very
bad, so these little isolated courts cut of
from each other and from the rest OF the
world FOR a great part of the time, had to
create their own amusements To this end
they employed bands OF musicians. and

Here. too. lived. the time of Iummei
and Haydn. one Adam List, who, though
he was. not one OF the hired musicians
could play almost every instrument, and
often filed vacancies in the court band.
Adam List belonged 10 the Hungarian
nobility but his family had been greatly
impoverished. and as his father had had
twenty-six children he naturally couldn't
do very much for them, and all had TO
shift for themselves just az soon as they
were old enough. Thus poor Adam. with

accountant in the service of Prince Ester

up columns OF figures and doing other
things that he hated But whenever he
