BLAMES PURITANISM.
Thomas Beecham's View of Back
wardness in Musical Art.
Foreign Correspondence of The Star.

PARIS, July O. 1913.
Ihat the puritansm of the English
people is the cause Of England's baca-
wardness i'm musical art is the opinion
or Thomas Beecham of London, who has
been conducting a series of concerts here
In an interview here Mr.. Beecham said:
1t is puritanism which has killed our
art You cannot imagine the terrible
raVages which this malady has caused.
Until within quite recent years only the
most austere standard works were APP
preciated.
A piece which produced a feeling of
ennui in its hearers was accepted as a
thing of beauty. If the reading of a poem
or the execution of a musical piece sent
the audience to sleep people hailed il as
work of genius.
Fortunately We are shaking off this
puritan lethargy. We used to be as sor-
rowful as a rainy day; r0w we are al
most gay. Perhaps this is one of the
many good effects of the entente cor
dale. Our composers are rouslng them
selves, and today the new school shows
signs of marked vitality. You will see
that the harvest will be soon.''

The Japanese woman, compared to her

been held greatly in subsection. But
advanced opinion agrees that the Jap

hitherto has been allowed her.

Hospital System Inadequate.

Sir William Osler, regius professor of

opinion of the medical profession at the
inadequacy of the hospital accommoda-

with the system in America and Canada
where all hospitals accept pa ing pa
tients. Throughout the United hlngdom
the hospitals accept no pay from their
patients, with the result that the, are

Curious Pedigrees Brought Out.

A discussion as to whether Londoners
die out with the third generation. as Sc
often asserted, has been taking place in
the daily papers. One paper suggested
that it would be difficult to find a Lon
doner of the fourth generation and as a
result has received many curious pedi-
grees. Some of them date back = . years,
with great-great- grandfather born in
the place where the descendant hopes to
die. Most of these come from districts
where trades are handed down from
father to son, and in almost all of them
Ii was found that the present generation
was carrying on the businesses estab-

who make London have been drawn from

not last long.
