Opera

Wherever, whenever and however pop

Giuseppe Verdi, born near Parma, Italy.
His true name was francesca Fortune.
He received his musical education from

whom he composed marches at an early
age. His first opera was presented at
the La Scala, Milan in 1893 and rev
years later on the pronounced success OF
"Ernani' made him one of the popular
operate composers of the day. The arias
from III Trovatore' were sung and Wills
tied upon the streets whenever opportuni-
ty offered and We're rendered wherever
and however one might desire music
whether in opera, symphony, oratorio,
concert, or street hand organ. He COM
posed the popular melody. "Ah! Have

skies remain But when he wrote Aida
and his later operas he proved that he
was in fact a master of modern music.

construction and orchestration. In every
collection of songs touching the heart a
number of the arias from Nerdfs operas
will always appear. He died at Milan In

of Verdi is one of the notable chapters
in the history of music of all time.

Amongst the Jewish sects of our Lord s

loyal to Go dand His law. The Sadducees
professed no faith in a future life. They
We're infidels and politicians. The Es-

little faith and confused by mixing pagan

Himself especially to the Pharisees
pointing out wherein, with all their boast
ed holiness, they came far short of what
would be acceptable to God.
A Pharisee invited Jesus to dine with
him. The invitation was promptly ac-
cepted; and Jesus passed in and sat down
at the table with the others, without the
Journalism of washing customary to the
Pharisees. The host thought of Jesus as
a holy man, and remarked that 1t was
strange that He had not performed the
usual ceremony of washing. Jesus point
ed out that much of the religion which
even the holiest of Jews practiced was
merely ceremony, and not true religion.
Outwardly they were clean. but inwardly
their hearts were unclean-given to extor-
ton, spiritual wc1edness. The Lord
sought to show that in Gods sight the
heart is the important matter, and the
outward cleansing quite secondary. The
inside Of the cup should first be attended
to. and afterward the outside.
Those who come into heart harmony
with the Lord, and who are cleansed by
obedience to His message and it's spirit,
are thereby made clean--outwardly as
well as inwardly. Every one who is pure
In heart will seek to be clean in person,
in speech. in every way. The principle
working in his heart will influence all

1.-The song, 'Katusha,' in which the
lover Of Katusha tells how much he
regrets leaving her, was taken up by
the boys and girls of the schools, as
we'll as by the geishas. and was
spreading rapidly. when the authori-

about the song. 1t is merely a pretty
little love tale with an attractive air.
