The most interesting news is such
news as this, "We had fine rain the

ing movement Is shorter and quieter. and
the theme isNCeligious, as church music
comes TO the fore with its many special
services for Christmas. and with its spe-
ciai anthems for the New Year.
So much real music has been inspired
by Christmas, OF a kind which contains
both the Christmas spirit and the spirit
OF music as well. The Christmas spirit
is spirit of gladness which evidences
itself in spontaneous acts Of kindness 20
friends and fellowmen and OF Joy which
results therefrom. The inspiration al
ways comes from within, never from
without. and the only reward expected Is
the accomplishment OF these acts. Yet
how often. year after year. do many peo-
pie give gifts TO one another and miss
the Christmas spirit entireiE
The spirit Of music Is a spirit OF en-
thusiasm. one might say. which evidences
itself in spontaneous melody and har-
mony, and the joy one feels at having
been able TO give expression TO II in
sound The inspiration always comes
from within. never from without. The
music Is written for its own sake. be-
cause the composer felt II. and his satis-
faction comes from the beauty OF II.
rather than from the worldly reward Il
may bring to him. Yet composers 90 on
year after year composing, and perform
ers go on performing. and many Of them
miss the spirit OF music entirely.

Christs birth, and perhaps even before
It. All over the world at about this time
in the winter solstice popular festivities
were held. Tho ancient Persians opened
the New Year with agricultural festiv-
tiles. which had their counterpart in
China. The Athenians had three sacred
plowines. and the old Druids chose this
season OF the year 70 march In great
solemnity TO gather the sacred mistletoe,
inviting all the world 20 assist, Music
was as closely related Co the religion OF
the ancient pagan nations as II Is today,
and no festival was complete without

celebrate Christmas on December %
seems like concession to paganlsm.
However. Christ's birth seems to have
always been celebrated by the Christians.

DARK.

The dark came as a comforter, For was tired of day. I slipped my working robe and fled Into her arms to play. She batbed me in the springs that
 ran
 From cool crystal sea. And with Q waving peacock fan She scothed the heart of me. She told me tales of pine groves
 deep,
 or cold snow nights of moon. She rocked me to the drOwsy hum Of bees a-swarm in June. My thoughts they wandered agile,
 far,
 Like children on a beach. The gleams, the cares, the frets of
 day
 Dropped far beyond my reach. Far off my airy spirit sped, While in the street below People intent on nothingness Ran chattering to and fro! Laura Benet, in The smart Set.
