Final arrangements having been COM
pleted, the Omaha May Music Festival as
ISOLATION announces its plans for the COM

that dates could not be secured in a fitting
auditorium when the orchestra was avail

favorable circumstances next season, the
May Festival association will give one con-
cert on Wednesday evening, May 3. at the
Brandeis theater. introducing the Oratorio
society under the direction Of ]. II. Simms

In other words, and with the opening
paragraph in view, It is no wonder that
musicians, or rather prominent musical
people should have peculiar mental dis
tortions at times because of the way In
which they are deifled fattered and CON
fectioned. Not that they all get spoiled
or get their mental paths confused but
every one knows that there is a tendency
to consider the bigger musical people at

sign which marks the future pianist or

Young medical students and young law
students do not seem to be obliged to re

does not seem so. Is 1t because there is no

We seldom hear anything or read any

LUTHERAN LEADER
URGES CHURCH TO
Be PROGRESSIVE
DR.. Remensnyder Says 1t
Must Adopt Itself to
the Times.

The Rev. DR.. J. B. Remsnyder, the
new president of the General Synod of
the EVANGELICAL Lutheran, churches in
the United States, preached at the
morning service at the Luther Memo
rial Church today on the necessity of
the church adapting itself to modern
conditions. zone of the most impor-
tant things TO be considered today is
the adapting Of the church to the con-
dttions of modern civilization" he said.
THE Catholic church has lost ground
IN France. and is losing It in Spain. to-
day, because that church refuses TO
adapt itself to modern conditions"
There are many changes today in. the
world, the speaker said, and the church
must take them into consideration, hav-
ing a due reverence for things Of the
Of the present.
The truth remains in all things un-
changed, and on this foundation Of the
old things we must build the new. and
thus assemble with the old the things
Of the present day. SO the church will
be on the march and keep up with the
progress of time.
I'm Jesus Christ the same yesterday,
today, and tomorrow must the church
place her trust, and in this trust the
church need be afraid to meet no con-
ditions," said the preacher.
The delegates to the Lutheran synod
will attend service on the lawn of the
National Lutheran Home for the Aged
this afternoon. DR.. John Weidley will
preside. and addresses will be made by
the Rev. DR.. S. p. Long and Mr.. I. S.
