former MishawaSa boy. now located at
Los Angeles, Calf. The letter was
dated Oct. Is, and was written while

Their Threats gashed from ear To

The officers were injured when the
automobile which Fisher was driving
crashed into barbed wire fence near
Huntington beach.
The top wire of the fence shat
tered the wind shield and caught both
men across the throat, lnfiicting Sc

the machine. The pair had wander

others wounds and started in search
of medical attention. Weak from the
loss OF blood and bewildered in the
fog, IL was several hours before they
found the road. Dr. Hitler, who
dressed their wounds, said that their
knowledge Of first aid was all that
saved their lives"
They drove 45 miles before they
reached the hospital.

NORWEGIAN COMPOSER
TOPIC OF MUSIC DEPT
Mrs. Williams Gives interest
ing Paper on Grieg'S Com
positions - Illustrations by
Prominent Musicians.

An interesting and entertaining
meeting OF the music department of
the Mishawaka Woman's club was
held Monday evening in the enter
tainment parlors Of the Methodist
Memorial church. The general topic
OF discussion was Norwegian music (;
the famous Norwegian composer Ed
ward Hagerup Grieg, by Mrs. George
Williams. and current topics by Miss
Carrie Grimes
Mrs. Williams talk on Norway, it's
beauty and it's composers. was the
chief feature Of the gathering. In
part she said: mo such music as
Grieg has given us, could have origi-
mated from any other country than
from the Scandinavian country, and
Grieg has called the attention of the
whole outside world TO his native land
and brought its distinguishing char
acteristiCs clearly into view 1t would
be impossible 70 talk of Greig with
out saying something about his coun-
try. 1t would be impossible to spea k
Of Grieg's music without referring to
the felix songs and traditions Of Nor
way, for his music differs from that
of any other composer. His feelings
and imagination were intoned with
the legends and poetry Of the peas
ants, folk songs. traditions and the
scenery or Norway.
Grieg lived between the years Of
1913 and 1907 and was about 81 years
Of age at death. He was short in
stature and had a large imposing
head man who was genial and I'M
affected. Grieg had a keen intellect
and cheerful disposition, notwith-
standing the necessity of the constant
care of his health. He led a very re-
tired life, was patriotic, public spir-
4n1 No.
the political changes of Norway. His
wife was a charming woman OF bright
cheerful disposition, an excellent mu-
stefan and often accompanied Grieg
on concert tours.
Chopin ended his brilliant career
when Grieg was but six years old.
Grieg loved 70 play his music and was
an ardent admirer Of Chopin but new
er initiated. He was truly original
Both composers belong to the same
type and genius and both have writ
ten exclusively in the smaller art
forms. But the individuality and per-
sonality Of both is distinct. Grieg is
ahead of Chopin in the matter of in
strumentation for orchestra.
Mrs. Williams was followed by
Mrs. W. L. Butterworth who gave a
review of Ebsen's drama Peer Gynt
Suite" which was set to music by
Grieg. Grieg's compositions for this
drama are In the Morning" Death
of Ase," "AnitraS Dance" "In the
Hall of the Mountain King" The
drama was illustrated by the numbers
of the Peer Gynt Suite" on the vic
trola. The different classes Of
Grieg's music were illustrated by
songs by Mrs. Demester Beatty, 'Ich
Iiebe Dich" and Sunshine Song"
violin solo by Mrs. Violet Shy
Parks, Dance Caprice" Piano Sc
lections were given by Miss Helen
Guilfoyle of South Bend, ''To Spring"
Dance Of the Dwarfs' and Itch
Lebe Dich." One of Chopin's com
positions was used to illustrate the
difference between Chopin's music
and Grieg.
