MISSION BELLS

A New Musical Work by Marie
LOuka.
The following letter accompanies 1
musical manuscript sent by Marie
Louka, the distinguished composer,
to the Whitney Warner Company
Lakewood, n. j., Dec. Is, 1911.
Whitney Warner Company,
13i w. Forty-first ST.,
New York.
Gentlemen: | am sending YOU
with this The last Of the five teach
ing pieces that | had promised to
write This year. | have named it
mission Bells" The theme, and in
fact, the whole composition, came
to me as an inspiration while trar-
cling through California for my
health two years ago. | Travelled
most of tha time in stage coaches,
of which there are still many lett
| between SIN 1iego and San Fran
cisco. | saw The ruins of many of
! the old missions, which one hun
dred years ago were a refuge and Il
home for the worn traveller, who
could stay as long as he wished and
pay what he could afford, and when
he went away took the blessings OF
the monks, those men of God who
sacrificed their lives for mankind
in country which was inhabited
mostly by the lawless Spaniards and
MeXicanS. While almost all of these
buildings are in ruined state now,
| was very much impressed with the
bells which in four or five missions
still remained. These bells were
formerly rung at night to guide lost
travellers. One day while making
trip on horseback TO the foot of a
range of mountains with my COM
panion and a guide we lost our way.
Ii was late in the afternoon when
we discovered this fact. While
pondering what to do we heard the
Ginning of sweet bells three in
number, VIC judged from the sound
and following this, to us most well
come sound, we came upon an Ur-
Suline convent, situated in most
beautiful natural park in the foot
hills of long range of mountains
AS we came up close we could hear
the soft tones of an organ and The
singing of the nuns. 1t was veSper
time, and / was so deeply impressed
with the beautiful scene that | for
got the prcdicament we were in. We
reined up our horses and stopped
until the chanting was over, and the
whole scene made such an impress
sion upon me that | resolved to en-
body it just as it then impressed me
in musical composition. This |
have since done, and am submitting
the manuscript to you under condi-
tons that it be named Mission
Bells" and that a short description
of this event in my life be inScrib-
ed upon every copy. Kindly send
contracts and any other commune
cations to my home in Philadelphia.
Yours very sincerely,
MARIA LOUKA.
Musical critics who have heard
"Mission Bells" have pronounced it
masterpiece as descriptive work.
The sound of the three bells as pro-
duced on the piano is remarkably |
perfect. Ii is not a very difficult
composition, and will no doubt take
its place among the semi-classic
teaching pieces, such as Monastery
Bells" Cathedral Chimes" and
"DaS Glockenspiel." The Whitney
Warner Company have a splendid
catalogue and control all of Marie |
Louka's latest compositions.

The heart rendins cries that
went up from those who pcrished
with the going down of the great
Titanic, the pathOs of the srief and
suffering of the survivors, and the
courage and bravery and self con-
troll of nearly all on board during
their terrible experiences have been
such an all absorbing topic since
the accident, that II seems as though
our thoughts do not concentrate
easily on other lesser topics. But
"some must work while Others
weep" and the every day duties and
pleasures move on with a steady
undercurrent, and the baking and
brewing must be attended to with
the usual regularity.

Have you ever tried scalding the
milk for custard and pumpkin and
similar pies? If not, you will be
surprised at the betterment of your
pie when you do try it. Greasing
the bottom of the pie tin is also a
help in getting the pie out of the tin.
| know of one lady who was some
what indignant when this was sug
gested to her, and said her pie crust
would itself grease the tin. But it
is really a helpful hint, | think.
Here is a good recipe for custard
pie
To eggs and 2-3 cup sugar, add d
little salt and nutmeg and beat all
together. Scald one pint milk and
turn slowly onto the beaten mixture
and stir well. Bake in one crust.
Sometimes | add little lemon fla
voring or some cocoanut.
