motion picture composers write their
score from the scenario, but Mr..
Schertzinger did rot start writing his
music until he had seen the picture
out In California in almost its com.
pleted form. Then he set about the
task Of timing and phrasing his com.
position 30 as to suit 1t perfectly to
the action on the screen. He wit
messed the picture twenty times and
wrote twenty different compositions
before finally selecting bits from each
one and putting them together to make
the final score. Although the press
and public have commented particular.
ly favorably on Mr.. Schertzinger's mar.
tial music, he himself considers his
pastoral solo, which accompanies the
scenes of Peace and Plenty at the
opening of the story, as his best work.
"The day is fast coming" says Mr..
Schertzinger, when motion picture
audiences will resent any musical &C
compartment that is not especially
written for the story they are witness
ing on the screen. Whenever selec.
tons are played from comic opera
or popular song that has been sea-
sons hit, 1t presupposes to one whose
ear is unsteady trained another pic
ture on the Aim than the one being
Witnessed; that is to say, II a pretty
love story is being shown on the film
and the music of a popular love song
is being played, enc naturally thinks
of the scene in the operetta from which
the song is selected.
1T is the same when airs from grand
opera are played. Ones mind wan
ders from the scenes of the screen to
the scenes Of the opera from which
that particular part Of the music is
taken"
Mr.. Schertzinger, before combining
himself to motion picture scores, was
identified with several Oliver Morosco
productions of comic operas. He con.
Quoted pretty Mrs. Smith," in which
FRITZ Scheff starred, and also wrote q
great part Of the music.

COLLEGE OF ST. THOMAS.

COLLEGE OF ST. THOMAS.
The College of St. Thomas reopens
Tuesday, September 5th.
Professor Richard Purcell, Ph.D., of
Yale, has been added to the st.
Thomas staff. DR.. Purcell has for
three years been assistant in the De-
partment of American History at Yale,
and will have charge of the Depart
ment of Constitutional History and
Political Science at st. Thomas. Rev.
E. Alphonse Gutierrez, who, until re-
Gently was a professor at the Univer-
sity of Pueblo in South Mexico, has
also been aggregated to the st.
Thomas faculty. He has been ap.
pointed in charge of the Department
of Spanish. The new commandant,
Captain Robert /. Rees, Third Infan-
try, U. s. A., has entered upon his
duties at the college. Captain Rees
is distinguished graduate Of the
Army School of the Line and also of
the War College. During the past
two summers he was Adjutant of Bril-
gade at Plattsburg, where he planned
the maneuvers and formulated the
problems. He has seen a good deal
of service abroad, figuring promi-
nently under General Pershing in the
Moro rebellion.
A recent act of Congress has given
increased recognition to military
schools and colleges throughout the
country, and st. Thomas will be bene-
ficiary of the privileges which it pro-
vides. Every cadet over fourteen
years of age will be entitled to re.
ceive from the United States Govern
ment complete uniform free of
charge. Other privileges of more
substantial nature have also been pro.
vided by the act of Congress, but
the regulations which specify their
application to the schools have not
yet been issued by the War Depart
ment. Several St. Thomas students
are preparing to undergo examination
for commissions in the army. Fifteen
hundred vacancies in the grade OF
second lieutenant will be filled by com
petition in the near future.
The new chapel designed by Mr.. E
L. Masqueray will not be completed
this fall. The plans show that it will
be, in general style, an adaptation OF
a suitable scale of the Byzantine bas
ilica found in Ravenna and some othe
cities in Northern Italy. The strue
ture will cost eighty thousand dollars
The St. Thomas grounds have beef
further beautified by considerable
amount of planting and grading. Al
indoor target gallery modelled on plan
supplied by the Dupont Powde
Works, will be in operation early il
October.
