RUSSELL COOK,
Formerly of Belfast, Who is Scoring Sue
cess in Music.
belfast Cor. Bangor News.


Belfast Cor. Bangor News
A former Belfast lad, Russell Cook, IS
years of age, is the conductor of the So
piece orchestra of the Somerville High
school, one of the largest and best known
mus ical organizations connected with any
of the schools of Greater Boston. Hav-
ing played in the orchestra during his
course in the school, young Cook was
elected conductor at the close of his
senior year and returned to the school
this fall to take postgraduate course
in order to accept the position.
The orchestra, unlike many others in
connection with schools, is very fortu-
nate in having players who are efficient
on the instruments which are often lack
ing in such an organization, and which
greatly handicap such. 1t has its full
quota of violins, 'cellos, wood wind in
struments and a strong brass section,
together with bassoons, tympanlse and
bass viols. 1t is very evenly balanced,
and, under the conCuctorship of Mr.
Cook, is making rapid progress.
The annual concert IS given In M ay
and this years work will include the
Military Symphony, Hayden; a concert
overture and other numbers. The con-
ductor hopes also to give pop concert
during the season, with music of liz hter
nature. During the winter the orchestra
will give concerts in the suburban cities.
In addition to his work with the S. H.
S. orchestra, Mr.. Cook also holds the
position of concert master Of the Y. M.
c. A. orchestra in Boston, studies with
l.. H. Saigen OF Boston, violin and viola;
gives private lessons on the violin; is
playing his sixth season in the fremont
Temple Brotherhood orchestra, besides
doing outside concert work.
When he was graduated from the
Somervile High school last June, he
wrote the class play, Fooled, and took
part in the production, which was most
successful.
Mr.. Cook began the study of the vio-
lin in Belfast at the age of eight years,
his first teacher being Percy Sanborn,
who has studio in Phoenix Row. To
his first teacher young Cook attributes
much of his success and inspiration. He
was started right and his old teacher has
been great help and source of encour-
agement in the years of work since leav-
ing Belfast
While his plans are as yet undeveloped,
Mr.. Cook will, of course, make music
his life-work. He thinks of taking a
course at Harvard in harmony, counter
point, theory and appreciation.
Mr.. Cook is well remembered in Bel
fast as young boy with big violin
case, and as youngster he took part in
many local concerts. His people moved
to Somerville some eight years ago, but
are frequent visitors here, and it is hoped
that the young musician may be heard
again in his native city. He is the only
son of Mr.. and Mrs. Freeman Cook.

1t requires no consulting of The oracles
to see where Colonel Bryan will fetch up
four years hence He is the logical nom
inee of the Prohibition party. He has
practically re ad himself out of the Demo
cratic party already. His inconspicuous-
ness in the campaign indicated his slight
party hold, and its triumph is not his
victory. If is curious, by the by, that
he figured large only in party adversely.
As soon as his party met with success he
began to rscede in prominence, and now
he has proclaimed his intent to head an
other political movement.
