IL is noticeable on many occasions
especially when music of the higher

desire TO enjoy the music and should
not be allowed. Not only do these
sinterruDtionS annoy the listeners, but

practice of getting UP and preparing

ration Of the feelings of others would
be shown Dy remaining seated until
the last number Is finished.
