AN experienced drummer. They start
ed a campaign to educate the patrons TO
know good music.
The people began to come from all
over the city. Today this theater has
both better music and better films. Tor
the manager had to improve the stand
ard of his films to suit the music
Moreover, the price of admission has
been raised to 10 and Is cents, and the
musicians are drawing big salaries:
Another illustration that the moving
picture public enjoys good music is
found in one of the favorite stories of
Marcella Craft, the operatic singer.
Miss Craft had few hours to spend
in small western town. so she went
to moving picture show. Presently,
she was astonished to hear the pianist
playing a medley of Shubert songs, in
Guiding "Erlking." Die Forelle, Ave
Maria and others.
Miss Craft glanced at the faces of the
audience and, to her amazement. every
body was
Music Listened to listening
and Well Applauded.. the e n d
there was a loud burst OF applause.
After the show was over the prima
donna went forward. She found 4
young girl who believed that the NOV
ing picture theater afforded a great op-
portuhity for educating the public
taste in music. and who was proving
it with her own audiences
Thus with the moving picture pro-
ducers enlisting the aid of music to
intensity the artistic effects of the film.
and with the musicians of the country
enlisting the aid of the movie to edu-
cate the public taste in music, the days
of the rickety piano appear to be num-
bered. In Europe the poor people are
furnished good music when they
haven't enough bread. but in America
the raucous melody of the hurdyGurdy
is the ideal of the masses and grand
opera is only for the affluent. Now this
is going to be changed. 1t doubtless
will not be long before the inimitable
Irving Berlin is heard only in select
drawing rooms. the proletariat having

Better Music in the Movies
By Frederic J. Haskin.

NEW YORK, October 5.-Some time
ago a young man who had inherited a
sum of money invested it in small
moving picture theater in a middle
western town. The price had been low
and the young man felt elated until he
took possession.
Then he discovered that there were
town having much better locations and
getting the majority of the business,
and that the prevailing opinion among
hte townspeople was that he had made
a bad investment.
To resell the theater was out of the
question. and 1t was up to the young
man to make 1t pay. How could he
make his theater so popular that peo-
pie would go out of their way to pat
ronize 1t?
The young man succeeded in answer
ing this question. Today his theater is
one of the best paying investments in
the middle west. What he did was to
hire an orchestra of eight pieces and
raise the price of admission to 10
cents.
This happened about three years ago,
when the big feature, films were just
beginning to make their appearance,
and when people were just beginning to
realize that the music which accompa
MED the film was an important factor.
Now almost every moving picture the
ater of any pretensions has a good
sized orchestra.
There are still many small nikelo-
dians where the music is of the crud-

STORM DAMAGE
IN MINNESOTA
IN MILLIONS
Northwestern Section of the
State Hit by Violent
Tornado.
(Herald Special Service }

Crookston, Mimi, Aug. "A tor
nado, with cyclonic outcroppings,
swept seven counties in the Red River
valley last night, doing enormous
damage to crops, farm buildings and
city property. The storm was the
most destructive and covered the
largest area of any ever experienced
in this section.
In Crookston, the plate glass fronts
of the c. o. D. Clothing house, The
Golden Rule department store, Bray
& Halvorsen's department store, The
Slocum Francis Grocery store. The
places. were blown in, signs were torn
down, trees uprooted in Central park
and throughout the residence section
OF the city, and at.yast amount OF nh
nor damage was done.
In the, rural districts, the damage
to farm buildings was widespread. Big
cement block silos were destroyed,
barns turned over and outbuildings
scattered.
The Great Northern flyer from Win
nipeg ran into a barn which had been
blown across the track. a distance
of half mile from the John Bull
farm and cut it in two. The train was
delayed but few minutes.
The crops between Crookston and
Grand Forks and north to the Cana
dian boundary through Northern Nor
man, Polk, Marshall and Kittson
counties are as fiat as though a steam
roller had passed over them. Por-
tions Of Pennington, Red Lake and
Roseau counties were hard hit.
Where the grain is not extremely
vigorous, it will not straighten up and
will be thirty per cent or forty per
cent loss. Grain that is rusted badly
will be practically total loss, as it is
broken off and crumpled up.
1t is estimated that in the territory
referred to above, the damage from
the storm will run anywhere from
$5,000,000 to $10,000,00O.
No loss of life has been reported
but many sustained minor injuries
from flying glass.
