WHEN THE MIND WANDERs
Musician, Absorbed in His Art, Is Apt
to Forget the ConventionaIities
of Life.

When you have a violin beneath
your chin, and a melody beneath
your bow, you simply cannot con-
verse In human tones, no matter how
mild your mood. There is certain
tenseness about your voice, a dicta-
torial crispness about your brief re-
quest, that is likely to sound domi-
neering. Margaret and Godfrey,
one evening, almost became perma-
nently estranged because Godfrey in
the midst of lovely passage took
the mouth-piece of his cornet from
his lips long enough to roar, Three
flats! Three flats 7 for her guidance.
Such stage directions have brusque
and startling tone, as if the speaker
had stood all he could from you, up
to the explosion point, and must now
relieve his mind. Then too, there is
of course a subtle excitement about
the playing that approaches the dan
ger-mark if anything happens to
spoil the spell. Julia Ward Howe
used to be all keyed up, che says,
when she played with an orchestra
and SO am /. Little things seem
vital in such moods.-From the Con-
tributors' Club, Atlantic.
