MAX PAUER MAKES
DEBUT IN CONCERT
Noted Pianist Appears for the
First Time in Program at
the Columbia Theater.

A program of generous proportions
was given by Max Pauer, pianist,
at the Columbia Theater yesterday
afternoon. upon the occasion of his
first concert appearance in this city.
Previously he appeared as the soloist
of the Boston Symphony Orchestra
at the February performance, and
left an excellent impression, but the
concert of yesterday vas a disap-
pointment to many. While Pauer
showed no lack of muscular control,
and executed more difficult passages
with great skill and clarity of tone.
crescendos and diminuendos seemed 20
lack the gradual opening and closing
of tonal volume which is so neces-
sary. The Moonlight Sonata of
Beethoven, instead of revealing any
of the remarkable gossamer beauty
of which II is capable. was interpret
ed in an almost hypnotic uniformity,
not unpleasing, but quite different
from the usual.
Unfortunately. the closeness of the
stage setting made a peculiar rever-

"FLORODORA" GIVEN
FINE PRESENTATION
BaItimore's Paint and Powder
Club Delights Big Audience
at the BeIasC0.

Just how much pleasure and profit
can be obtained from amateur theatri-
Gals was clearly shown yesterday after
noon when the Paint and Powder Club.
of Baltimore. gave its performance al
the Belasco Theater. "Florodora," the
everla sting. was given by dashing young
men and dashing young women, with
large hands and feet and rich contralto
voices.
The principal roles were surprisingly
well acted, and the chorus, while lit
tie labortously graceful at times, was
well trained and sang with much gusto.
Without mention of Lady Holyrood. a
grievous error would be committed. for
she was the paragon of grace. charm
and vivacity. Charles Andrew McCann,
indeed. Is an artist of the first water.
and the unqualified success of the en-
tire performance was due to the eN-
ceeding fascination of Lady Holyrood.
Joseph W. Swikert took the part OF
Gilfain. and Arunah s. A. Brady was a
gladsome Donegal. His duet in act l.
.'Galloping." with Angela, was as good
as anything seen in some of the
musical comedies which have appeared
here. Dolores. by Howard Hill. was
marked more for unusual beauty than
for vocal ability, although her softly
sung songs were pleasing.
Clapham Murray, jr., was Anthony
Tweedlepunch. and Abercoed. played by
Richard II. Bond. displayed an excel
lently trained voice of rare quality. In
terpolations of original dances and
movements were received enthusiastical-
ly. word can be said for the audi
ence, a friendly and a generous one
which filed every seat and left n few
persons standing in the aisles. The per-
formance, which was for the benefit Of
the Christ Child Society. was a decided
success from every point of view.

THE HUMANITIES.
Morals and Religion DR.. Garner Tells
Of What the Modern System Of
Education Lacks.

The service arranged for by the
Brotherhood of Saint Andrew last
evening in st. Anne's Chapel was
followed by an address upon Secular
and Religious Education, " delivered
by Samuel Garner, Ph. D., the head
of the public school system of Anne
Arundel county.
DR.. Garner is himself thorough
scholar and has a true appreciation of
true scholarship. He laments the
neglect of the HumaAities"- our
modern schools, where practical
branches are studied to the exclusion
of the ancient classics, belles-letters,
rhetoric and poetry. These humani-
ties bred scholars, instilled N orals and
fitted men for religion. Their place
has been usurped by interest in ath-
letics and zeal for a practical educa-
tion.
DIR. Garner does not undervalue
athletics and practical branches of
study and manual training, but holds
the broader education is not confined
to these, but includes them. Without
the old humanities, which made our
fathers to be gentlemen, scholars and
religious, we are in danger of over
laying the soul with the flesh; we are
in danger of becoming gross and ma
terialistic.
He pleaded for moral training in
the secular schools; more moral train
ing in the Sunday-schools and church
teachings. He urged more culture of
the heart in religion and less of the
head. Taking a high position, as he
does, for the intellectual work of the
soul, he takes higher one for the
cultivation of the will and affections.
He attributes to the neglect of the
humanities the lowering of the
moral tone and the religious indif-
erence we meet, and fears lest we
be drifting towards the british,
luxurious, materialjsm of the age
of the great Roman Empires de-
cline.
1t is not often such an address
is given to thoughtful audiences.
The speaker did not try to please
his hearers, but he lead them from
the thugs they erred in. unto the
things they should love, but had not
learned to properly esteem. Di.
Garner fearlessly attacked evils in
theology and church policy, as in
secular and church schools. He is
not an iconoclast but is constru, tive
for the remedying of the evils he
attacked he had who les 1me sugges-
tions.
Underlying the whole address was
a spirit of religious piety expressed
in a sense of obligation and a spirit of
reverence for what is true and abhor-
ance of what is false.
On Thursday, at 8 p. m, the other
Brotherhood of ST. Andrew service
will be held in the Chapel. The
speaker will be Commander q. II.
