VICTROLA RECORDS
Article 2. BY E. H. DROOP

TN our previous article we
dwelt on the lack of
l. knowledge possessed by
the average VICTROLA
user of the higher and better
forms of music known as
classic" or "semi-classic" COM
positions.
1t is not surprising that this
condition should exist, and it
must be said in justice to the
great masses of our people that
it is Of comparatively recent
date that they have had made
available to them a medium
through which every form Of
music could be brought right
into the home-the VICTROLA
and then quite naturally they
took up with the more catchy
and trivial things in music, be-
cause these amused and enter
tanned them; little thought has
been given to the more serious
forms Of music-which are not
only far more beautiful and
lasting than the catch-penny
airs that are whistled today and
forgotten tomorrow-but they
have an educational value which
proves a great help as progress
is made in the study and under
standing of music.
Again we make the statement
that if we can interest you to
listen attentively for a little
while to a few good selections
chosen from the lighter classics

heartfelt sympathy goes out to Lady
Spring Rice from the people with

very robust health since he came to

It may be recalled that he had a
serious illness not very long after
his arrival in this country. and that
for one season he was a semi invalid
