MUSIC and DRAMATIC ART
L Edited Lighfner

The state contest in piano. violin
and voice was held in Muskogee Tues
day, January 80 at the Sewers hotel.
Mrs r.. u. Bevitt acted as chairman
and much credit IL due her for the
splendid and satisfactory way III
which this contest was conducted.
These state contests are held in every
state in the union under the super
vision of the National Federation OF
Music Clubs. and is one of the great
est educational features Of this great
organization. All contestants must be
American trained and under 20 years
old. This fact alone creates music
interest. for II fully demonstrates the
ability OF American music tutors.
The points upon which each con-
tostant in piano were graded were
G) accuracy of text; co accuracy of
dynamics; 90 rhythm; ca tone: .(5l
Interpretation. In voice the points
were "a breath control; (2) tone;
go rhythm: 90 cnunciation; (5) die
ton ana Interpretation.
Miss Daisy Maude webb OF Mus
kogee was the successful contestant
In both piano and voice contests.
Miss Webb Is n graduate in both sub
iccts from the Boston conservatory
o. music. She is an intelligent mu-
siclan in every way. II seems most
fitting that Miss Webb should repre-
sent oklahoma. she being a Chicka-
saw and Choctaw Indian. She will
go to Little Rock, Ark. February Is
to enter the district contest, and, If
successful there, Will go to the nat,oa-
al federation In June
After the contest Tuesday morning
the members of the Ladies' Musical
Art club were hostcsses to the judges
and contestants at beautifully ap-
pointed luncheon at the Sewers.
After lunch AN auto ride was en-
1oyed, which concluded with a de
lightiul tea party at the home OF
Mrs. w G. Jackson.
We shall give the numbers given
by the contestants so that the young
musicians of our state may know the
grade of work expected by the ma
tional board, and it is most earnestly
sicians will remember this splendid
opportunity and prepare foi tie ne.
contest, which will be two y. .ars
from this time.

Not Give Away Territory.

BUDAPEST. Feb. 3.-The oath
which the new king of Hungary took
at the coronation ceremonies here, as
prepared by the Hungarian parlia-
mentary committee. was expressly
worded so that In connection with any
peace arrangement it will be almost
impossible for the king-emperor to
make any cession of territory without
the consent of the Austrian and Hun
garian parliaments. The oath reads:
I'VE. Charles the First. emperor or
Austria, tho fourth king of Hungary
by this name, etc, swear by God and
all his saints that we will respect the
freedom. liberties and rights OF all
our subjects . and that we shall
under no circumstances ALLEVIATE any
parts of Hungary. Croatia. Slavonia
and Dalmatin; on the contrary we
shall so far as in our power, Increase
their territories and extend their
boundaries, and shall do all we can
in the interests and glory of all these
states OF ours"
