Music Lovers to
Hear John Freund
On January )

with more interest In musical mat
ters than ever before in the history
OF Richmond, the lovers of the city
are enthusiastic regarding the appear
ance here Of John c. Freund. distin
guished writer apd lecturer and editor
Of Musical America. Mr.. Freund will
come to Richmond under the Joint
auspices of the musical organizations
OF the city. January and the address
will be delivered in the auditorium of
the John Marshall High School.
While the lecture will be free 1t
will be necessary to present a card at
the door. These tickets OF admission
can be secured from any musical or
ganization In the city. For number
Of years Mr.. Freund has been con-
Quoting a vigorous propaganda in the
interests Of the characterization Of
music.
Mr.. Freund has already spoken in
sixty OF the leading ciN'es of the
United States. including addresses be-
fore the principal universities and
other large educational institutions.
In his addresses. he has made plea
not for nationalism in music, but for
the setting aside Of the existing pre-
judice which has existed in native eff
fort in this art. Musical authorities
everywhere had conceded that the
time had come when 1t was neces-

matters musical.
The result Of this declaration has
been pronounced. 1t has created a
wave of interest In music, not only
In the large cities. but in the smaller
centers as 1t has been the means of
establishing great community chorus
es, Of starting local musical organiza-
tons; 1t has been the means Of In
teresting foreign musical celebrities In
the work of American composers, and
II has done much to place music as
serious study in our public schools.
Moreover, 1t has aroused the press of
the United States to a more liberal
recognition of music as one Of the live
issues Of the day. 1t Is doubtful IL
any campaign has been waged in tho
United States, for the recognition of
a fine art. that has stirred such wide
spread interest and has resulted In
such radical changes. as has this pro-
paganda for the cause of the Ameri-
can musician.
Mr.. Freund was born in London.
and came to the United States about
fifty years ago, when he established
the first musical newspaper In the
English language, in New York City.
He Is well-known as a playwright and
publicist. His travels In the interest
Of the American musician are made
entirely at his own expense.

Salvation Army still Lacks Funds TO
Make Up Baskets For Applicants,
Who Number Thousand.
DISTRIBUTE MONDAY MORNING.
Those Who Wish to Contribute May
stop by Army Headquarters Today

Gratefully Received.

The kettles have not boiled with
coins this year, and last night when
the nine kettles were gathered in the
S400 needed to provide the $50 extra
dinner baskets was not forthcoming.
OF the 1000 requests for baskets con-
tanning food, $50 had been provided
for last night. These $50 early appli-
cations had all been investigated and
found worthy. The other ESQ were
looked over Friday and yesterday and
found in equally as needy circum-
stances. No line Is drawn because OF
color-the salvation Army keeps no
register on this White and colored
will receive of their bounty.
Estimates showed that 1900 was
necessary with which to fill the ESQ
baskets. Last night Adjutant John
son reported that on Christmas day.
Monday, from 9 to II o'clock Mt the
John Marshall High School. between
500 and 800 baskets will be distributed.

mainder Of the 1000 needy ones will
be given their dinner baskets on
Tuesday morning. 1t Is very urgent
that none OF the applicants be disap-
pointed and It Is hoped that while the
majority will receive their dinners
on Monday. the remainder will only
enjoy theirs one day late.
The increased number of applica-
tons this year Is due the fact that
several organizations who formerly
followed this custom have discontinued
It.
