They arrested ME in Aberdeen
for taking photographs. They
had no right to do this, but they
did.
The particular gunman who
took me to police headquarters
told me quite frankly why it
wouldn't do for newspaper men
to take pictures of the picket line.
Take me- he said. Strike
breaking is my business. If my
picture gets in the papers, I'll be
recognized and somebody will get
me.
When I was booked, he gave
his name as Burns" He ad-
mitted this was not his right
name. / tainted him with being
afraid to give his true name, and
he told me with bravado that he
was an ex-convict and fugitive
from justice-and that was | GO
ing to do about 1t?
They held me several hours.
The chief of police-his name was
Templeton, l MISUNDERSTANDING
the city ordinances. He had an
idea that there was an ordinance
making 1t an offense to take pho
tographs without a license. OF
course there was no such ordi-
nance, and he had to let me go.
Get out of town" he said.
1--WE don't want reporters here.
I've set out to break this -
- strike and I'm going to do
1t, or kill every - - striker
in Aberdeen!"
Which seemed to me mighty
queer way for an impartial police
officer to talk.

What kind of an animal is a

newspaper reporter, | have met
the creature many times. | have
encountered him in the east and
in the south; and | have crossed
his path on the waterfront. He

You would not care to meet the

is just as we'll that you should

strike in the Grays aHrbOr
country. The Films were the
backbone of that strike, and
the Films are wise, cau-
tiOus, dOgged people.
The men stayed AWAY from
the picket line. The women, with
their babies and their knitting,
did picket duty.
That was clever. The mill op-
orators knew, as well as the strik-
ers knew, that the side in an in
dustrial quarrel which has public
opinion with it has the strike
half-won.
If men strikers had been on
the picket line, those strikebreak-
ers and guards, armed with Win
chester rifles, would have picked
fights with them. And the word
would have gone out that the
strikers at Aberdeen and Monte
sano were a lawless mob.
But the gunner dared not at
tack the women. Public senti-
ment would turn against the OPP
orators if they did. And the wo-
men used moral suasion Oh the
picket line.
So the gunner were furious

In pursuing this hobby l
haunted u certain notorious
ly tough saloon known as
the High Ball" I came TO
know everybody there-the
bartenders and the habitues.
l came to know that every
man there was a criminal of
the "yegg" type.

lively that nearly every burglary

off in Cleveland and the sur
rounding towns was planned over

Most of the "High Ball" crowd
were ex-convicts and not a few
were murderers.
There was a strike of ship
builders at Lorain, 80 miles from
Cleveland. covered that strike.
The shipbuilding company lost
no time in bringing from Cleve-
land trainload OF professional
strikebreakers.
These men were sworn in as
deputy sheriffs. Each was given
badge of authority and the
power of arrest. Each was given
a Winchester rifle, a revolver and
a club.
If you had asked the superin-
tendent of the shipbuilding COM
pany what those men were for, he
would have told you that they
were to enforce the law, protect
life and property, and keep the
peace.
And he would have told you
this without batting an eye.

thing: As those "peaCe Off
GERS" piled off the train, l
recognized nearly all of them
as old pals of mine-from

The establishment OF the Boston
Opera Company's season a few years
ago served 70 emphasize the craze
among vocal pupils in the city to
study FOR grand opera" Since the
abandonment of the enterprise the
craze has subsidized to degree, but
there are still too many among vocal
pupils in the city yearning for a place
in the sun" of grand opera. In the
nature Of the ease, not many are
"caIled" TO this work, and still fewer
can, in this country, have the oppor-
tunity 70 enter upon such a career.
Nine. Cup made deep and valuable
impression upon Boston's voice stu
dents by her demonstration that the
song recital offers an opportunity for
the exhibition Of a higher type OF
vocal and interpretative art than does
grand opera. There is room foT en-
couragement among those who value
true vocal art because Of the wide
spread appreciation among Us OF the
singing of such brilliant opponents Of
that art as Mme. Sembrich and Nine.
Culp.
Recently a movement has been start
ed in connection with the teaching OF
vocal music in the public schools OF
Boston looking toward the development
Of the musical nature and taste of the
child by giving him music OF better
quality to sing, and paying more at
tention TO the use Of good tone quality
and to "self-express through
music, than to the acquisition OF the
ability 10 read by note, though that
rabject is not neglected. The change
ig one welcomed by vocal teachers, who
appreciate how much Of good or i'll can
come TO the voices OF the young
through public school singing.
Another forward step IN connection
with the teaching of singino in Bos-
ton was taken when the Boston Vocal
Teachers Association was formed
Frank +. Morse is now president and
Clarence +. Hay secretary. The ex-
presidents are Stephen Townsend,
Charles A. White and Frederick W.
Wodell. The membership comprises
about thirty men who arc looked upon
~ leaders in the profession in the
city. The printed constitution says,
"Its object shall be the furtherance OF
the interests of teachers OF singing"
Presumably it is understood that the
interests Of the public will he ad-
vanced whenever the interests of the
teachers Of singing are furthered. If
the organization can do anything to

will organize similar club of their
own, for some of the most success
full and brilliant vocal teachers in
the city are women.
A few years ago it appeared that in
terest in choral music in Boston was
waning. OF late, however, the Cecilia
Society has taken new lease Of life
under the presidency of Henry l.. Ma
son, of Mason & Hsmlin, and the
Loyola Choral Society, made up OF
members Of the Roman Catholic church
ohoirs, has made a successful first ap--
pearance' with performance OF
Gounod's Redemption" in Symphony
Hall. The Boston Choral Music So
ciety, q small chorus OF selected voices,
has recently made good record with
presentations of unusual and little
known works by ancient and modern
writer's. The Choral Union also has
been presenting modern works and
some by American composers. There IS
yet room in the choral field in Boston.
Among the native born population OF
New England there is apparently re-
luctance TO join IN choral singing "A
soloist or nothing" may be said TO be
the motto of 700 many young persons
here who have taken a few vocal les
sons. The community chorus idea,
which is slowly taking hold in this sec
ton, may be helpful in this connection.

the evidences of genius balanced with
full comprehension Of compactness and
clarity Of form (as seen in Mozarts
works. are often lacking, and many
works of undisputed inspiration are
forbidden place in popular esteem be-
cause of evident marks of imperfect
balance.
When Paganini found himself pos
sessed Of all that the schools knew Of
violin playing he withdrew from the
outside world and. not content with
what had gone before him, which he
had conquered, he entered into private
communion, as it were, with his genius,
and evolved from the depths of his
spirit and his learning those wonderful
original devices of technic which won
for him the name Of demon of the
fiddle" List did the same thing, and
many others who have reached artistic
distinction won the crown of success
by building upon a foundation of clas-
sic schooling a superstructure of high
er knowledge, evolved from the spirit
of the individual self, through severe
labor.
What, then, are we to conclude other
than that genius Is ''the capacity for
unlimited intelligent work.? We find
that the fire of inspiration may also
be the fire of truth. But TO bring it
to the human heart as a message Of
beauty and delight it must be put in
thorough control, SO that its express
sion may be fully ineligible TO the
masses. II this be true of creative
force it is no less true of executive
