RUTH RAY, vIoLINIsTE

i
One of the most generally appre-
ciated performers Of the chautauqua
entertainments last week was Miss
Ruth Ray, violiniste accompanying
Goddard. A good technique, warm
tone, and pleasing personality com
bined to make Miss Ray a lasting
impression with her audience Sun
day. Her rendition Of Fritz Kreis-
ler's composition the last ON her pro-
gram, was fully as delightful as his
own playing Of It.
It lis often surprise to find a
general assembly or people enjoying
the finely finished music we call
I classical" music too big to be
whistled and hiimmed. and too pre-.
cious to be dragged out every day
and spoiled by popularity. Music re-
duires certain tensionfof apprecia-
tion, music of the larger sort, and
It does penetrate and affect the muI-
titudes when well rendered. Strong
emotion tires one. In the meantimes
we hear scoffing but when per-
former OF Miss Rays quality comes,
we should not think praise strange
thing. III

BOARDS
GET QUESTIONS
Don't Send Inquiries To
Washington, Says
CrOWder.

Washington. u. c., July g.
Thousands of men registered under
the seIectve service law have been
flooding the provost marshal generals
office with questions regarding their
qualification for exemption from
service and on other subjects. AS a
result the provost marshal general
today promulgated rules under which
no questions from individuals or from
local exemption boards viii be am
swered by his office
These rules follow
1.-Questions by individuals should
be asked OF the local board nearest

Provost marshal general CroWder
in a statement today said il was
likely that men married since the
declaration Of war, including those
suspected Of being slackers, could
obtain exemption by establishing the
total dependency Of their wives.
