THE Battle Hymn of the Republic"
That, as everyone knows, had its
genesis In "John Browns Body" But
what was the genesis of John Browns
Body" is something that no one
knows. 1t was first sung, so far as
information runs, by the Twelfth Mas
sachusetts regiment. And, it seems,
those who sang it borrowed it from a
campmeeting melody. AS for the camp
meeting melody, its origin is clothed
in mystery. Possibly it came as re-
suit of one of the queer musical in
SEPARATIONS characteristic of the old
fashioned campmeeting singing of an
tebellum days.
The popularity of the Battle
Hymn" was immediate. Already the
army knew the tune-a tune singular
ly suitable for masculine voices-and
it took quickly to Mrs. Julia Ward
Howe's stanZas. A few weeks later,
East and West, wherever the blue
coated soldiers of the North were in
the field the new song was sung with
an enthusiasm and fervor that we're
irresistible.
Words and music were both Ameri-

they were, many even in Revolutionary

of the origin of the music.
But, if there is doubt about the Brit

there is none about the origin Of the
tune to which Francis Scott Keys
"Star-Spangled Banner is sung. It is
British beyond all question. In BaIti-
more. in 1914, "Anacreon in Heaven"
despite the fact that it hailed from
London, was the popular song of the
day-as it was abroad. 1t is hardly
the sort of song that would attain
popularity in these ragtime days, but
1T struck the fancy at any rate of our
forefathers, and Baltimore knew it

The expression worth a kings an

As the dawn advanced, he saw the
flag still flying. He has made the
world realize what the words of "The
Star-Spangied Banner" mean to us.
In the Civil war, both federal and
Confederate troops had wide roper
tory from which to select On the
northern side, for instance, the boys
in blue could sing not only "John
Browns Body" or 1.-The Battle Hymn
of the Republic" but such songs as
when Johnny Comes Marching Home
Again 1.-THE Battle Cry of Freedom"
Tramp, Tramp. Tramp. the Boys Are
Marching" "Just Before the Battle,
Mother" babylon Is Fallen" and
Marching Through Georgia"
Dixie" with Maryland, My Mary
land" was the favorite song of the
confederacy. OF the latter, nowadays.
we hear little, but Dixie" is played as
frequently as any other song of the
stormy days of the Civil war and no
less in the North than in the South.
Indeed, its vigorous, impelling strains,
wherever played, North or South, are
invariably greeted with applause A
not with cheers. No patriotic celebra-
ton, regardless of the Mason and Dix
on line, is complete without it.
Southern troops were fond, also, of
singing "Lorena," song notable, as
was Just Before the Battle, Mother"
especially for its note of plaintiveness.
Certainly about neither is there any
suggestion of martial characteristics.
Both were the favorite melodies Of
soldier quartets and were distinctly
camp songs.
pixie" can hardly be looked on as
war product. Maryland, My Mary
land" however, in words though not
in music, was inspired by the great
conflict James r. Randall, a native
Marylander, in 1861 was in Louisiana
when word was received of the attack
In Baltimore on the Massachusetts
troops. That night, alone In his room,
he wrote the words, and they were
published few days later in a New
Orleans newspaper. A Richmond pa
per copied the verses and a group Of
Richmond young women, reading them,
were impressed, and began to sing
them to the German tune of "Tannen-
baum, o Tannenbaum." So, like 1.-The
Star-Spangled Banner" this song of
the Confederacy borrows its music
from a foreign source
Still no survey Of the past. however
comprehensive 1t may be, will serve to
inform US what the new army, assem-
bled on the border. will make its cam
paign song. The only thing so far eyi-
dent is that the troops of 1916 are
slower than the troops Of 81 and '9S in
adopting and popularizing song for
the camp and for the march.

the regiment wavered. Quickly, how
ever, 1t recovered, changed it's front
slightly and went on.
brlef though that period of hesita-

the regimental band, still carrying its

ABOVE the crack of the rifles and the

made itself heard for quarter of a
