SATISFIED WITH THE
NATIONAL ANTHEM

Miss Anna Case, the brilliant so
prano of the Metropolitan Opera COM
pany, was recently interviewed on the
subject of the proposed Offering Of
prize for the new national anthem.
Possibly Miss Case, more than any
other artist, has been called upon to
sing AThe Star Spangled Banner and
in discussing the proposition Of
changing this national anthem, she
has some very decided opinions.
II think that all this discussion
about giving a prize for new ma
tional anthem is ridiculous" she is
quoted as saying. 'sH anyone wants
to write a national anthem, he viii.
The encouragement of a few dollars
win not bring inspiration. It may
bring forward lot of machine work,
but the real national anthem, express
sive of all the people, the epitomizer
of our national spirit, viii not come
in this way.
IF some man or woman has this
spirit IN his soul, and happens to be
a musician, then we will haveNa new
national anthem, but before that mo-
ment arrives, we VIII not. When Key
wrote the Star Spangled Banner, his
work was the expression of such feel
ing and sentiment. For that reason it
was universally adopted.
aBut / don't see how anybody can
hope to reconstruct such sentiment
with prize often, fifty or even sew
eraI hundred dollars. There is no
doubt that time viii come in such
stirring events a sare now going on,
when a new national anthem viii
arise spontaneously.
asUntiI that time comes, let US be
thankful for Keys inspiration.-Ex-
change.
Miss Case win sing IN the Duval
Theatre in Jacksonville Monday night
under the auspices Of the Ladies'
Friday Musicale for the benefit Of the
Red Cross.
