N MoNG the recent additions to the
 N\ musical environment of this SS S community is the handsome new
 Kilgen organ which has been placed tn the auditorium at the Margaret Allen School
 Miss Hattie Morton, the beloved and widely known "principar' of this school has for a long time been greatly inter ested in opening School for Organ Music." and in order to do this it was necessary to install handsome instru- ment which would be available for teach ing as well as practice for the pupils.
 Her dream has materialized now, for the organ which she has installed is quite sufficient in it's arrangement for the be- ginner or the more advanced pupil to have every advantage of learning organ music. concert, theatre or church music. and it is & valuable addition to Bir- minghams musical environment.
 The organ, which comes from St. Louis, was selected and built after plans made by Mrs. Virginia Reese Simms. the tal- ented young woman who teaches piano and organ at the Margaret Allen School, and the specifications were passed upon by her teacher, the eminent artist. Mir. Charles Galloway. whose fame as a teacher reaches far beyond the portals of St Louis. where he is greatly beloved and greatly honored for his excellent ability and splendid musicianship.
 Mrs. simms has studied for the past several years in St. Louis with MT. Gal loway and is enthusiastic over the or gan which she had the pleasure of select ing with him and which now is the bright particular spot of pride and de- light of the large number of musical stu dents at the Margaret Allen School.

 My own organ work has been such a ioy and pleasure to me that I feel like I want everybody else to enjoy the same sor, of work" Mrs. Simms declared. 1T went to St. Louis especially to study with Mir. Galloway. whom regard as the most splendid teacher I know. He is the most modest of men, and never ad- versises or lets people know about his wonderful talent, but the excellent qual' itv. of his work, the finished pupils he turns out, audibly testifying to his vir- tuosisy."
 MT. Galloway was a pupil or Huli- mant's,'' Mrs. simms said, ''and for eight years was an organism at the American church in Paris. Guilmant pronounced him his most talented American pupil and when he visited this country ne was the guest of MT. Galloway in St Louis.''
 MT Galloway has charge of some of the largest music clubs in St Louis," Mrs. Simms said. among them the Apollo Club (mens) and the Morn ing Choral fwomen'sl. and his church work stands out on it's superior merits and superb qualities of musicianship." :"
 And. by the way Mrs Sfmms con- tinued. "Guilmant wrote his Seventh Sonata for Mir. Galloway. and dedi- cated it to him. When say wrote it for him. I literally mean just that, for he wrote it for his hands. and that spells a great deal for MT. Galloway s hands are made for the organ, just as his whole body is. for he is an enor- nous man. over six feet tall and of superb physique.'

ALLEN SCHOOL ORGAN

regard to teaching organ music has been the fact that there was no organ in the school. and the only instrument availa- hle for the school was a church organ, and it was difficult to secure any church some instrument to be used for teach ing. Of course, when permission was asked of the church that the pupil might use the organ for practice the difficulty became more tense.
 All of which is entirely natural, because an organ is one of the most expensive musical instruments; it is very easily disarranged; the couplers, swells. me- chanical effects, electrical effects--all suffer at the hands of novice, and for many other reasons objections which are practical have been raised, and so Miss North, with her usual progressiveness and up-to-dateness, decided that it was necessary in order to make her music department effective to install an organ in the Margaret Allen School, and this she has done and is being heartily con- graduated upon her splendid spirit of up- building and progressiyeness.
 There is a wonderful spirit of unity among the students and the teachers at the Margaret Allen School, and their de- light and enthusiasm over the new or gan is quite refreshing and inspiring. Especially interesting, is what Mrs Simms has to say, since it is to her in- struction that the students at the Mar garet Allen School look for splendid re- suits from the new organ. . T am perfectly delighted with the new organ" Mrs. Simms was saying when asked her when she meant to give re- citai just to Isl ow off, the new instru- ment. "for l feel that it establishes for
