AN AMERICAN VI0LINIST
Successful Appearance Of Louis
Persinger.

Louis Persinger, a young American
violinist, who has been playing recently
in Germany. gave his first recital In New
York yesterday afternoon, and succeeded
In arousng in a goodly sized audience
NOR than n unual amount OF interest, dis
closing a talent and a technical facility
that will probably make him a welcome
factor in American concert rooms. II
would, perhaps, be too much TO say that
the young man Is as yet an entirely ma
ture artist There were, for instance,
beauties in the Bach prelude and fugue
for violin alone, which he did not appear
10 discover, but on the whole he proved
himself an artist Of sound musicianshlp
and sincerity OF purpose, and one who
was exceptionally free from Alterations
OF manner
Mr.. Persinger's tone was warm, pure.
and even, II not large, and his lyric
style, his grace. his delicacy were shown
most pleasantly in the shorter numbers,
notably in Haydn's "Capriccietto," Hum
mel's 'Deutscher Tanz' and Nonsigny's
.cRigaudon." The last, in particular.
brought warm and well won applause
The Bach prelude and fugue and Nor
dlni's concerto in r minor called for a
broader and deeper style than Is per-
haps as yet the fun possession OF the
Young violinist, but even In these no
plaved with fine spirit and with admirable
technical accuracy.
Other numbers were Bruch's concerto In
G minor, op. 2s, and selections by De
Grossi and Nachez. Samuel Chotzinon
was most capable accompanist.

AVERY HALL OPENED
Newest and One of Most Com.
plete of Columbia's Buildings.

The newest and one Of the most COM
plete of Columbia Unlversity's buildings,
Avery Hall, was formally opened yes
terday afternoon at a reception given
by the trustees. The new building stands
In the inner quadrangle, In front Of
Fayerweather Hall. The first two floors

library and the remaining two by the
School of Architecture. A pair Of lions
rampant. each five feet in height, occupy
pedestals at either side Of the entrance.
The building was erected as gift OF
Samuel p. Avery. of Hartford, in memory
of Henry Odgen Avery and his parents.
Mary ogden and Samuel Putnam Avery
The estimated cost OF the structure and
its equipment Is in the neighborhood Of
half n million dollars
An interesting feature at the reception
yesterday afternoon was an exhibit of en-
larged photographs taken by Professor
Goodyear, curator of the Brooklyn
Museum OF Fine Arts. The pictures were
mostly OF the Milan and Notre Dame
Cathedrals, and by the use of a camera
containing plumb lines Professor Good
year proved the hitherto unknown facts
that both structures have parallel bends
in plan, rising from the floor in the lines
OF the piers; that both have bends in
elevation In the gallery parapets, and
that both cathedrals have facades whose
upper stories are perpendicular and
whose lower stories exhibit forward in
clinations which diminish in the rising
direction.
The photographs were taken in 1910, but
yesterday was the first time many of
them had ever been exhibited

had met, not only his match, but
his master
But 1t was a dearly fought vic
tory for the Swedes, for in win

great commander and king. In the
thick of the fight, just as the last
line Of the Imperialists was being
broken, Gustavus received the
wounds from which he was to die
in the field he had so gloriously
won.

Enterprise in Politics b Charles Ferguson Ferguson

IMMERSION says in one of his
essays-quoting from the
Persian poet Hatiz-that "ou
the brow of the young man there
sparkles no jewel one-half 50 gra-
cious as Enterprise"
Now, democracy is the spirit Of
youth. 1t has made. its difficult
way over the thrones Of monarchy
and monopoly, not by the caution
of age, but by the valor of youth.
Perhaps it is not too much to say
that democracy has never won a
battle by Fabian tactics, never
gained an inch by the exercise Of
that passive and balanced intellec-
tualism which is called the Judi
cial temperament"
AS a matter of history, democ-
racy is in its very nature a revolt
from the rule of cold and passion
less intellect. 1t is the protest of
humanity against the scribes and
doctors
This protest has been justified
in philosophic terms by the pro-
foundest Of modern thinkers-such
as Kant or Goethe These have
tried to teach the world that the
abstract intellect is barren and fu-
tile, and that men are truly wise
only when they give up the attempt
to think out way to right living
and determine to commit them
selves TO the current OF experiment
and adventure-to live and learn.

that of Mazzinis Young Italy" and
Young Europe" a kinship to the
vision ana venturesomeness of
Lammenats.
Wilson is keen eyed and inqul-
sitive to discover the exact fact
He has the discretion that belongs
to builders and craftsmen. He saws
he knows nothing Of agricultlre
but he has the patient foresight Of
farmers.
1t is because Mr. Wilson is an
ut-of-doors man in his habits Of
thought, man conscious of the ir-
refragible laws Of chemistry and
physics, that he strikes hard when
he is ready to strike. He knows
that there is in nature no mercy
for motionless things. no safety for
driftcrs and derelicts. If one womb
sail and be safe in collisions ono
must sail faster than any other
craft. 0'''''
It Is to be confidently expected
therefore, that Wilson will put no
heT" slhkef ~ his cabinet ana no
cork-jacket to float with. He viii
surround himself with counselIors
who understand that the secret ~
success in modern politics ia ta
Keep IN modon-that the higher tbe
momentum the greater the securitv
and that the inviucible standard,

get farther by any other means.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-11-20

Thus Democracy is 40 fool in it's
striving and daring, its urgent
pressure for progress. 1t is on good
terms with the best that has been
thought.
Perhaps Thomas DeQuincy was
not quite right in. saying that the
intellect is the meanest of all hui
man faculties" But he was a real
democrat in his perception Of the
truth, that the intellect should be
the servant, not the master. Of the
creative will Of man-that the will
must bride and bestride the intel
lect if 1t would ride to its hearts
desire.
The present point of these re-
Elections is that the Wilson admin
istration can not succeed by the
methods of caution, Circumspection
and delay that have brought such
pitiful ruin upon the Taft admins
tration. Indeed. there is ample
warrant in the character of the
president elect, as shown in his
past career, to say that he will
not try TO succeed by such methods.
Wilson IS a sCholar-but not a
pale scholar In him the native
hue of resolution" has never been
"sicklied DER by the pale cast OF
thought" He loves action and
events
In all of Governor Wilson's say
ings and doings there ts an accent
Of youth and faith---a spirit like

without reproach," guileless. hon
orable, kind and true And like the
victor OF Leuctra and Mantinea
again, he was matchless as a dis
ctpiinarian, organizer and tactician.
Among the battle winners of the
ages he holds a supreme place. He
created a new dear' in the game of
war, and may be said with perfect
justice to be the father Of modern
warfare.
1t was GuStavus who first taught
cavalry the most effective way of
charging; he revived and gave new
emphasis to the idea of Epaminon-
das-that Of the heavy column
brought suddenly and powerfully to
bear upon some single point of the
enemy's line-and he completely
revolutiOniAed the artillery arm OF
the service
That God moves in a mystic
rious way His wonders TO perform"
was demonstrated to perfection
when Gustavus AdOlphus fell at
LutZen. Could he have lived. let
US say. even ten years longer, he
would in all likelihood have chang
ed the whole course of Europe9n
htStOry-and changed it in q way
that would have been a blessing to
the whole world for ages to come.
