ARENS PROPOSED FOR
PORTLAND ORCHESTRA

Portland, Or, just now the fastest
growing and most prosperous city on
the Pacific coast. has been casting en-
vious eyes on Seattle, San Francisco
and Los Angeles because of their per-
manent orchestras, and now proposes
TO have one of its own. Ii was at first
suggested that several members of the
orchestra should alternate as con-
ductors but that foolish idea was soon
abandoned. It is more important to
have a great conductor than a great
orchestra, just as it is more important
to have a good pianist than a good
piano. A city so wealthy and aristo-
cratic as Portland ought to be able to
secure one of the leading conductors in
the country man, for instance, like
Frank X. Arens or Frank Van der
Stueken, both of whom were among
the pioneers in breaking ground for
American music and musicians. New
York Evening Post.
Mr.. Arens, who is proposed as a
conductor in the above article, is well
known here. having spent two sum-
mes in the Valley and having recently
purchased ranch in Central Vale.

publication in the papers stating that
he was responsible for the loss of an
eye was entirely unfounded. The pa
tient has since died of heart failure
and post mortem examination showed
the eye, the brain. an their arteries
