A NEW MASTERPIECE IN MUSIC

Paris. Feb. 14.-Many soldier
artists continue to pursue their art
at the front. Music, as well as paint
ing and sculpture, is being cultivat-
ed NJ. Gheusi. director of the Opera
Comique, has found no decrease in
the number of scores which reach
him from all quarters, even from the
trenches. But there is this differ
once tha whereas the Cicilian re-
wells in martial themes the soldier
musician sounds the pastoral note
and seeks inspiration from nature in
her country aspects. Some of the
latter contributions are of no mean
order and there is notably one score
an opera in three acts-which
hears the hallmarks of masterpiece.
The production of this work VIII
nrove anything but costly as there
are only two scenes, the sea and a
mountain pinnacle, and three char
acters.
NJ. Gheusi was so struck by the
dignity and mastery technique Of
the score that he suspected the anon
vmous author of being possibly one
of the luminaries of his profession
who by this subterfuge wished 10
test the merit of his work on its face
va,ua and to compete on equal terms
with his less known rivals. Accord

mans was convened to hear a recltai
Of rbe work, but none of them could
recoznize the style OF any OF their
contemporaries. All agreed that a
new masterpiece had been created
for the glory of French music.
None of the works submitted al
nresant will be definitely judged be-
fore peace is declared.

nor Mrs. Given and her work, Satur-
days st. Petersburg Independent says
Eeditorially:
Children of ST Petersburg this
week are being taught how to play
under the direction of Mrs. Grace
Lamkin Given and much good is ex-
pected to result from the work she
has started here She is teaching the
children what play means and
especially what it means to play fair.
She has had some 300 children every
Iafternoon this week and has been in
stilling into their minds the neces-
sity for recognition of the rights of
others. Children play naturally but
in large groups they need direction
and instruction. They need to be
taught to be square in their play and,
having learned this, will be square in
everything. The Lamkin idea is to
make supervision of Fairgrounds un-
necessary; to teach the children to
rule themselves and to settle their
own disputes That this can be done
is shown by results in other cities
where the idea has been given trial.
THE Junior Chautauqua conducted
there this week has been worth while
even if it is not to be followed by
organized effort in playground work.
This city needs something of this
kind The bays and girls of st.
Petersburg need to be taught unset
fishness and respect for the rights of
others and need also to have aroused
the instinct of right dealing and
thinking The youth OF st. Peters
burg is no worse than in some cities,
but there has been here too little re-
straint and a tendency toward way
wardness has been too much appar-
ent.
"To correct the tendency toward
the paths of sin is not for the police.
The police are to handle adult Grimm
ais or offenders against the city or
dinances. The children should be
trained at home or by competent in
structors. Mrs Given has planted
the right seed and it ought to bring
forth good fruit The work she has
started can and should be continued
by leaders of thought here and the re-
suits will be found well worth the eff
fort expended.
