II is in a tone Of envy that the 81.
Louis writer mentions the fact that
Little Minneapolis" every year sends
its orchestra not only TO New York and
Boston, but also "to invade ST. Louis's
trade territory" There is great deal
of invasion of this sort which is as un-
wise from an artistic point OF view as
IL is Improbable from a financial. The
monthly visits of the Boston Orchestra
to New York and Philadelphia are be-
come a tradition, which fact, together
with the large clientele which the or
chestra has acquired, and the circum-
stance that the two cities are on the
road to others where the minlstrations
of the band are more necessary are
their excuses. But they could be spared
in the interests of music II the NUMBER
Of concerts in New England cities could
be increased. A change OF plan, which
would be laudsble from the viewpoint
of art, would, however, be costly Tor
Major Higginson. In Boston and New
York the concerts pay for themselves
they do not elsewhere; and the newer

Major Higginson's benevolence. Never
theless. such a change ought to be wei
coined. and it seems a pity that an or
canized and systematic effort Is not
made to lay out territories OF which

doing in music, but do not believe that
II is necessary TO follow him into the
variety theatre, nor think that he is do

Instruments which savage peoples in

musical instincts; but he is doing some
thing which may prove to be admirable
in lifting rhythm into a prominence IN
artistic music like that which it occu-
pies in primitive, In the conception OF
the classical Greeks rhythm was OF

FOR fifteen hundred years cultured

New York's most recent effort TO

six thousand persons-the six thousand

The orchestra, conducted by Walter
Henry Rothwell, is made up Of the best
men from the city's winters orches-
tras: the music is of the most pleasing
and desirable character. The soloists
are those whom one ordinarily pays
regular New York concert prices to
hear. Yet at the Garden all one pays
is from 10 to so cents.

evening, was received enthusiastically.

HOLLAND EXTENDS
COLLEGE COURSES
TO MEAGRE PURSES

THE HAGUE, Netherlands, Nov. IA.
The University Extension movement
has taken root in Holland and The
Hague in the form of a "Volks," or
Peoples University, which proposes to
throw open the doors of higher educa-
ton to the slenderest purse.
This movement early made its way
in America, and has subsequently
spread Wiley in Europe. The idea
has been in the minds Of Dutchmen for
a quarter of century, and to some
extent put into practice, but it took
definite and concrete form when the
first Dutch "Volks' University began
its courses in the capital, Amsterdam,
in 1913. This institution proved a big
success and the war brought it yet
more students, for many of those
thrown out of employment entered the
university.
The Hague has now followed Am
sterdam's example, and just inaug
urated it's Peoples University. Seven
teen hundred students have already
been enrolled.

PURCHASES SEAT
UPON WALL STREET

MEX YORK, Nov. 14-The removal
of class barrier to the stock exchange
which in the past has been considered
rather as an exclusive club with a
limited membership, was emphasized
today through the announcement that
telephone, clerk for a Broadway
brokerage firm is to be advanced to
full membership on the board, as soon
as arrangements for the purchase Of
the seat has been completed. This is
the second instance in two weeks of a
uniformed employee of the exchange
has become a full member. One reason
ascribed for the promotion of employees
is the heavy business done in secur-
tiles. Messengers and telephone
clerks of long experience at once be-
come assets to their firms without
period of breaking in"

II r. H. S.. stacked against the

game. its safe bet that Richmond will
finish its entire schedule without a
defeat. Muncie, tackled on the small

Unless the Muncie school authorities
grant the request Of the Richmond
management to book the game for
larger floor, the Richmond five is up
against real proposition in the M. H.

The Springfield Republican" admits
that "the Republican party has always
been, in this generation, the party of
power and eficiency-what there is of it
IN America" " This is indeed praise from
Sir Hubert when one regards the attitude
of the Republican" toward the Repub
lican party in this generation. It may
be unfair to infer that the Springfield
Republican" prefers a party of weak
ness and ineficiency-but it has of late
been found in opposition to the Republi-
can party, at any rate.
