PROF. BEACH TO SPEAK
ON SOCIAL FATAL|SM'

What will doubtless be one of the
most attractive lectures of the year
will occur in the Auditorium on Fri
| day evening of this week. Professor
w. G. Beach of the U. of w. and
formerly head of the Department of
History and Economics of this insti-
tuition, will speak under the auspices
of the Twentieth Century Club on
the subject of Social Fatalism."
To a Pullman audience it is GER
tainly not mere formal praise to class
Professor Beach as one of the most
attractive speakers of the country.
Clear cut logic expressed in an earn
est, convincing style, is the basis of
effective public speaking. And for
this Professor Beach is noted Above
all else, he is profound thinker He
is keenly alive to the spirit of the
age, and has a broad and comprehn-
siye appreciation of the social, politi-
cal and economic problems of the day.
A rare breadth of view. keen an
alysis and an impartial recogni ton of
all elements concerned characterize
Professor Beach's treatment of the
topics of the day. While always a
supporter of progressive movements
and an avowed antagonist of worn
out systems and practices which have
become a burden to society, his judg-
ments and opinions are always sa-
vored with a degree of conservatism
which discountenances all reckless
and fanatical innovations.
Perhaps the field in which Pro-
fessor Beach has studied most and
has a most comprehensive view of is
that of sociology In his treatment
of social problems he reflects the
qualities and characteristics of an
able social scientist. Under the title
of Social Fatalism" he will treat
some of the leading social problems
of the day and their relation to So
cial progress.
1t is needless to say that anyone
who fails to hear this lecture will
miss rare opportunity for awaiting
themselves of a highly intellectual
and cultural entertainment.

Canon ... Theo. Salome
Scherzo .......... Eugene Gigout
Cantilene. ......G Gabriel Pierne
lSerenade. ......... Gabriel Pierne
Finale. ............ Cesar t'ranck
Widor's Symphonies are pre-emi-
nent among organ compositions, not
only on account of their extreme diff
ficulty, but for the originality and
worth of the musical matter contained
in them. The Prelude is very massive
and dignified. 1t is the first number
of seven which form the Premier
Symphony.
The Intermezzo is quite the oppo-
site to the Prelude, being one of the
daintiest possible creations. tbs COM
poser, Joseph Callaerts, is organist of
the Grand Organ in Antwerp Cathe-
dral. He was born in that city in
1898 and taught by Lemmens, a well
known composer Of organ music.
Cesar Salome, organist of
the Chancel Organ in Trinity Church,
Paris, for more than 25 years; pupil
of Benoist and Bazin, also Ambrose
Thomas; wrote charming music.
Eugene Gigout, organist of ST. Au-
gustin, Paris. His chief teacher was
Saint-Saens. He has founded in
Paris a school for the study of organ
playing and plain song. He was born
at Nancy, France, in 1914.
The Cantlene. and the Serenade,
both by Pierne, are splendid examples
of this masters work-charming, me-
lodious and well constructed. The
composer is organist of Ste. Clotilde,
Paris, where he succeeded that great
master, Cesar Franck, in 1891. He
studied with Franck and Massenet at
the Paris Conservatory and during
that time took four first prizes.
The last selection on the program
is the Finale of six pieces for the or
gan and is a fitting conclusion to any
program. Majestic in its conception,
it nevertheless contains passages of
tender beauty, and the composition
must convince all of the master mind
of its composer. Franck's playing on
the organ inspired all who listened,
but because of his modesty he was
k and is stilD unknown during his life
time except to a few cultured and
thoughtful musicians. His religious
tendencies, his great and profound
thought, have, however, influenced
his pupils, friends and admirers, not
ably Guilmant and Saint-Saens. He
will always be a giant in composition
to the musician. To the general pub
lie he will never appeal in any great
degree, because of the deep religious
feeling and a certain mystic quality
which pervades his work, and because
of the lack of sensational and dra
matte effects. Saint-Saens says of
his music that it is best described by
the word "Cathedralesque.
