is a song that will survive when others
are forgotten. No doubt the gentle
man from Maine has been moved by
the tuneless ragtime of today, but he
must remember that these ragtime
compositions rarely last three seasons
whereas Dixie" has been whistled
and sung ever since the days of Uncle
Dan Emmett.
Perhaps the critical gentleman from
Maine is a little old-fashicned and
looks upon a restaurant as a place to
eat and not place to sing and dance:
There ares many who still cling to
this old-fashioned idea. When our
ancestors went into the dining room
of their hotels it, was with the pur-
pose of gratifying the inner cravings
for food and not to be entertained
with vaudeville, but since the times
have changed and since the demand
of the public is for entertainment as
well as food, the gentleman from
Maine must accustom himself to the
music of today. And so long as men
play music Dixie" will be one of the
popular airs played. 1t was the tune
dear to our fathers, and it is tune
cherished by our sons. 1t is typical OF
the South and the proper song of the
nation.
