Inc resolution points out that grave
emergency has arisen through the fail

tudget sufficient moneys to paw the
salaries of school teachers and to con
cuct the city's public schools beyond
August, 1921.
The majority of the Board of Esti-

through the whole of next year. holds
that 1T has no power, under the consti

construction of the Constitution and
therefore, voted against the budget
1t is too late now to include the SOS.
100000 in the budget, but it is not too
late to borrow and appropriate this
sum, so that the Board of Education
may know where it stands and appor-
uon its funds at the beginning Of the
year as it should.
This deficit can be redeemed in the
1922 budget. The honest and direct
thing TO do is to appropriate the money
now and economic so that we can re-
deem it next year"

ira this season. The distinguished vio-
iinist appeared twice on the program.
In the first part OF the evening he
played Niotti's concerto for violin, No.
-, and in the second half of the pro-
gram Saint-Saens's introduction and
rondo capriccioso, Opus 90. His per-
formance Of the first movement of the
concerto lvas eclipsed by his playing of
the two movements that followed. In
these and in the Saint-Saens piece he
Played with the richness of tone, mo-
bility and consummate art that set
his playing apart from the oceans OF
paltry adding encountered every week
in the concert halls of this city.
The remainder of the program was
devoted to Wagner's music--the over
ture to "Rienzi.' Seirfried's Rhine
Journey and Siegfred's Death, from
"Goatterdammerung," and Siegfried in
the Forest, from "Siegfried." While
Mr. Bodan7ky neglected none of the
opportunities for orchestral storm and
stress provided in the overture, the
most effective performance of the
Wagnerian pieces was easily that OF
the Rhine Journey. This program will
be repeated on Thursday afternoon.

Percy Crainger's March Is
the Only Familiar Score
ON a Program Astounding
in Novel Compositions
An international Cast

Provided by Miss Beebe
By II. f. Krehbiel

With the exception of Percy
Grainger's "Children's March" all the
music heard at concert given by the
New York Chamber Music Society in
Aeolian Hall last night was new to
the local public. The list of COM
poeers had an international cast.
Donald Francis Tovey represented
Great Britain, with set of variations
for flute and strings ON 8 Siciliano

papers of Charles T Critics, came
transcriptions for pianoiorte, two vo
Inns. violioncello, double bass, flute,
oboe, clarinet, bassoon and French
horn of three bits of descriptive piano
forte music.
Granger Comes at End
H. Woollett, whose name suggests
the Englishman, used French melodic
idioms in quintet for the wind in
strumcnts OF the organization. Gia-
como Orefce stood for Italy in a
theme with seven variations of a
delineatiye order, which he calls
"Refessi ed Ombre"
At the end came the Australian,
Granger, with an arrangement of his
march made for the society and en-
ployng all of its instruments. We
have heard it for the pianoforte and
for the orchestra, transcriptions for
"two-somes," 'threesomes," -four
somes," etc, are in the oiiing, if not al

laudabie thing about it all was that the
composers all seemed possessed Of old

giving free fight to their fancy and
imagination.
Mr.. Woollett's Theme
The most obviously spontaneous ut
terance was that of Mr.. Woollett, who
employed melodies Of a folk-song kind
rs themes for the four more or less
conventional movements of his quintet.
His inventive ingenuity found ample
playroom in d varied and interesting
handling of the voices and color effects.
The pieces by the late Mr. Critics
were studies IN the manner Of Debussy,

I Is an uncomfortable thing to be at
rance with regular critics. There is a
Il guilty feeling connected with it, as if one
were admittedly at fault in not agreeing
with them; surely, one thinks, as one
crlnges before their stern columns of impress
sivc newspaper type, such neatly arranged
and widely circulated opinions must be infal-
lible. And yet what is there to do about it,
when a play which all the critics have
turned down their thumbs in one beautifully
simultaneous gesture, seems to one the best
entertainment Of the season? There is moth
ing left but to mutter sullenly that one may
not know anything about art, but one knows
what is perfectly great.
GTo dispense with some of the "one's," the
case in point is 1.-The Tavern" produced by
George NJ. Cohan at his own theatre The
piece was written originally by Miss Cora
DICK CAN'T, who, it is said, intended it in all
seriousness as melodrama of the romantcist
school. And Mr.. Cohan has taken that melo-
drama and burlesqued it, Enthusiastically even
as, in "The Royal Vagabond," he burlesqued
the merry-vilager comic opera. The result is
an evening to look back on for the remainder
of lifetime.
gOne--or at least, this one, which is what is
usually meant by the person employing the
word-has long dreamed non -Freudian dreams
OF buriesque, built of speeches and stua-
tions from all the particularly hair-rasing
productions that have gone before; Mr.. Cohan
has built his burlesque of these, and has done
immeasuraby more by adding those mastery
touches which no other living playwright
could add. "The Tavern has all the i'm
mortal lines, from 'You would not put even
a dumb beast out night like this to 'It
was you, you black-hearted snake, who made
me the thing am today" 1t has all the i'm
mortal characteristic vagabond stranger,
Enthusiastically gentleman beneath his
patches, courty of manner and swaggering of
carriage. talking with whimsical philosophy of
love and life; the half-witted hired man; the
sturdy innkeeper; the clustering sheriff; His
Excellency the Governor; The incessantlv
swooning, wronged girl--all, all are there, the
old familiar faces. 1t has all the immortal
devices-the pistol which only the hero knows
is not loaded; the tall clock on the stairs.
which, though it's hands remain ever station
ary, ticks loudly in the tense moments
Of the action; the bowling storm with the
lightning politely yielding precedence to the
thunder, and with the drenching rain from

which all the characters emerge comfortably
dry.
qBut it has much more, in those twists which
no one but Mr. Cohan could conceive and no
one but MI Cohan would dare to carry out.
For example, the Governor and his party wear
clothes Of the period around 1920, while the
vagabond wears a conventional Chauncey Oh
colt costume dated about thirty years earlier
and the sheriff appears n modern Western
attire For instance, the wronged woman ac
cuses not merely one man, but each male
member of the cast, in turn, of being her be-
trayer For added example, the sheriff looms
up out of the storm carrying wounded man.
and later looms up again. carefully bearing in
the same man.
GNo, there is no use in trying to report it,
the typewriter's touch is too heavy. All one
can do is to throw awe Of the newspapers
reckessly aside, and proclaim that here is an
entertainment sent from heaven, via Mr.
Cohan. See it for yourself, though you must
in from Jersey to do so; see Arnold
Days gorgeous performance of the vaga-
bond see Spencer Charters as the hired man;
see, in short, the whole company, under the
tutelage of Mr. Cohan show melodrama how
to take joke. And if ''The Tavern" is not
running by the time this out, write to
your Congressman and demand its immediate
revival.
GOf course the question arises, What does
the authoress think of her masterpiece now
that George Cohan has finished with it? It is
fairly safe to predict that, should "The Cav
ern' not have the overwhelming success which
it deserves, the first person to call Mr. Cohan's
attention to the fact that she told him so will
be Miss Cora Dick CAN'T Certainly the pav
could have received no ponderous no
tees if it had been presented with all the
seriousness that its loving author thought its
due; some reviewers complained Of the antiu-
uity Of its lines; spoke quite harshly Of
the "injudcious dressing" of one of tke char
acters: Oh, well, it takes all sorts of people
to make world!
NAnd now, | suppose we have to come down
to the months output of other playwrights.
How naturally do all writer's for the stage fall
under those two headings-George M. Cohan
and Other Playwrights. &
QWh;ch brings rs right back to the
place we started. and forces US to
repeat with redoubied emphasis that
"1he Tavern" is the event of the
year.
