FARGO CONSERVATORY
Notes About Bertrand Alan Orr, Who
Has Been Appointed Director of
the Well Known institute.

AS already announced by the truss
tees Of the Fargo Conservatory of Mu-
sic, a department of Fargo college,
Bertrand Alan Orr has been elected
permanent director, succeeding Wal
lace w. George. who severed his con-
nection with the conservatory several
months ago.
Professor Orr was born and re-
ceived his early training at La Porte,
Ind. After leaving the public schools
he took a commercial course and was
engaged in business for several years.
His first work in the direction of
music was in connection with orches-
ira and band work and after several
years experience with organizations
OF this character ne devoted his whole
time to the study Of music, especially
voice, theory and harmony. 1t was
during this period that he was under,
for five years, that eminent voice
builder, ID. A. Clippinger of Chicago.
Professor Orr. for four years was
member Of the famous Chicago Ma
drigal club, and was soloist, en- tour.
for two seasons, with that organiza-
ton. He has had marked success as
q conductor, his early training with
band and orchestra being a valuable
asset in that branch of his musical
pursuits. All of the great oratorios
have been rendered under his direction
with orchestral accomplishments.
Before coming to Fargo, Mr.. Orr
had been teaching voice culture for
ten years, in and near Chicago and
four years in Cedar Rapids, Ia. AL
though he has only been in Fargo a
few months he is well and favorably
known, not only as a baritone--than
whom there Is not his equal in the
state-but also as modest, well
praised christian gentleman, who has
the happy faculty Of making friends
and holding them when made.
His pupils-among whom are some
of the best soIoists in the city-speak
Of bis singing as the work Of an ar
tist.' and his teaching as the work of
master Under the direction Of
Professor Orr and his able staff OF
teachers the college trustees anticf-
pate that the Fargo conservatory will
have larger enrolment than ever
befores and will do work OF grade
equal to the best schools OF music in
the country"

WEDDING WAS
MARRIED BY DEATH

Mandan, N. D., July 29,--Andrew
Thorhers. who, accompanied by mis-
son, Harry, made an auto trip to
Deapolis to attend a wedding there,
reports a sad accident which occurred
10 mar the wedding festivities.
While the guests were coming from
the church someone reported that
John Swanson had been drowned. His
sister. who was just leaving the church
heard the news and tainted. The
guests rushed 10 d pond nearby and
found the body of the young man. He
had been raxing up weeds ON his place
and burning them, and was engaged
In this occupation during the wedding
ceremonies. When he put on an extra
large pile OF weeds he lost control of
the IRE and his clothes were ignited.
Swanson ran to the pond which was
not far distant and plunged In to ex-
tinguish the flames. When he was
drowned.
John Swanson was the son OF Mag
nus Swanson. an old timer In North
DAKOTA. Both were very well known
in Manoan. The deceased was about
80 years OF age. He leaves d
father and mother and several broth
ers and sisters to mourn his sad end.

Never before did those who handle
grain and other staple products OF the
farm plantation and orchard, take 80
much interest in long range weather
forecasts. This Il highly appreciated
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1911-07-29

by the writer, for they are the best
judges in the world as to the real
value Of long range weather forecasts.
Good news to them is the fact that
soon these forecasts will be given out
much longer In advance.
A great detriment to this progress
has been that orthodox scientists in
Canada and the States take so little
interest in weather records, particular
ly back of 1871. Those records are
hid away in Canada and the States
and hard to reach. The Canadian and
American government are paying out
large sums of money to their observa-
tories for making records of terrestrial
magnetism, and the chargeable heat
output Of the sun. These records can
never be of utility in forecasting the
weather. The only true basis for
knowing future weather is found in
weather records covering many years
and these are neglected by scientists
who unfortunately hold all the govern
ment offices.
Our u S. weather bureau neglects
the old records made by army posts
and by long continued efforts of pa
triotic humanitarian private individ-
.uals and compiled by the Smithsonian
institution. Many OF the old records
made In Canada are buried at Ottawa
and i'm London, England, and to get
to them is difficult. When will the
Rip Van Wrinkle orthodox scientists
wake up? When will will they stop
their useless fifty years observations
Of the suns heat. and take up the
only true basis, the weather records
covering 100 years, now lying idle and
To them, useless.

Individual pursuit of music means
the development OF mans musical
ability in accordance with his personal
talent for music, and his share in pro-
noting public musical performances
according to his general education.
The duty of developing a musical
atmosphere as civilixing factor de-

All these institutions should use in

means of education In general use as

Every individual pursuit Of music is
OF value only as the result Of strong
impulse and not as a fad. All coer-
cion is an evil. 1t Is not personal ac-
complishment which counts. but the
comprehension and appreciation OF
works Of art.
Whoever wants to contribute to the
public pursuit Of music must not only
attend good performances; he should
also take an active part In perform

Musicians and the Community.

Music is a positive force for culture
in community, says The Musician.
The musician is therefore a represent
|ative Of this force and should be a
factor in the community life, espe-
cially In its culture aspects. But the
fun force of music as a social or COM
munity asset cannot be realized ex-
cept when the musicians and music
lovers get together and pool their ideas
and energies for the common cause
and for the public benefit.
This is one Of the reasons why we
believe in the organization OF choral
societies. choir unions. and music festi-
walls. They draw together persons
who would otherwise stand aloof from
the public activities, and fail i'm their
duty to others. The fact is that ones
best talents and abilities show them
selves when brought into contact with
the energy and power of others. Make
yourself force in your community
and do it by organization.
