Michigan Composers Competition

To encourage composition "a
mong Michigan musicians, the
Michigan Federation of Music
Clubs will provide the opportuni-
ty for presentation to the public
of original compositions during
the annual convention in April at
concert devoted solely to such
work.
1t is hoped that composers will
perform their own work when pos
sible. Otherwise an effort will
be made to obtain musicians of the
best calibre to do so. The scheme
is launched by the Federation
hoping that creative musicians
of the state will respond with en-
thusiasm to the movement intend
ed to encourage and stimulate
composition and music in Mich
igan.
At the present the Federation
is unable to offer substantial priz-
es for the best compositions, but
trusts that their performances
will be all that is necessary as an
incentive.
The following rules have been
adopted
l. Composers submitting manu-
scripts must have been born in
Michigan or residents of the state
for fifteen years.
2. Manuscripts in ink must be
submitted to the committee by
January 1st, 1922.
3. The committee shall consist
of three persons with chairman
whose knowledge Of composition
requirements shall be unques-
toned. This committee shall de-
eide what compositions shall be
performed at the convention con-
cert.
a. Manuscripts shall be known
to the examining committee by
number only, and those accepted
by the committee shall revert to
the writer after the convention
concert.
5. Compositions may be for or
gan, piano, strings, chorus, wood
winds, and brasses or may be
songs.
6. In song composition origin
ality in verse and music will be
given preference over well known
poems set to music.
z. Manuscripts must be sent to
executive secretary of compost
ton competition by registered
mail with return address.
Signed,
Mrs. Harry Bacher,
Executive Secretary

A Day Long To Be
Remembered By Members

this time to express his sincere
appreciation to all who in any way
have helped the church to reach
this goal.
The cost of the church when
built in 1921 was $4,000. The pres
ent approximate value is $4,000.
The sum raised on Sunday amoun-
ted to $4,000.
The program of music arranged
for the morning service was mar
ked by a very pleasing solo by
Dorothy Lacy. In the evening
Mrs. Clyde Cochrane, a former
director of this choir, now of Port
Huron, assisted in the music and
sang a colo in her usual wonder
full voice.
Mildred Rub, of Adrian sent
the beautiful chrysanthemums for
the decoration of her home
church.

BURNED TO DEATH

Charles Cole, aged nearly 90
years, was burned to death in the
house on his place north of Rose
burg, Sanilac county, Tuesday,
Nov. 18th. About noon a neigh
Dor was passing along the road
and discovered the building on
fire, and on opening the door he
found the body of the old gentle
man lying on the floor behind the
door, his clothing burned from his
body 1t is supposed he had made
an attempt to get out and failed,
falling to the floor.
The building being all afire at
the time it was rather a perilous
job to rescue the body from the
burning mass. Cause Of the fire
is unknown.
Mr.. Cole had resided alone for
many years.

SHUBERT LADIES' QUARTET
Second Number on Lyceum
Course Gives Splendid
Satisfaction

A packed house greeted the
Shubert Ladies Quartette on
Tuesday evening this week at the
Auditorium, and everybody was
delighted by the program given
by these artists.
The first number on the course,
The Sterling Male Quartette,
which appeared here on October
9th, was a pronounced success,
but the general verdict seems to
be that the ladies have the gentle
men beaten and the second num-
Der surpasses the first. If each
number continues better than
the preceding Yale people will
have had an entertainment course
worth twice the money.
The Shubert ladies gave a var
led and clever program. Each
one could manipulate the keys of
the piano, two were fine violinists,
one a cellist, one reader and i'm
personator, and all could sing.
Their orchestra music was eX-
cellent, the songs ran from the
sacred to the popular, the read
ings and representations were
"a given, and the whole blend
ed into a delightful repertoire.
The Yale Music Study club may
again be congratulated upon it's
selection Of very satisfactory
lyceum course.

They smile and then they're gone.

A man who has done much to
speed up the world died in Ire
land and the papers gave him a Z
line notice. He was John Dunlop,
inventor of the pneumatic tire in
1888. The pneumatic tire made bi
cycling popular, made the automo-
bile possible and helped the air
plane along. Because of his in
vention most of the world now
rolls on rubber.

Presbyterian Church Re-Opened
Sunday With Impressive
Services

Sunday, Nov. 18th, was a day
long to be remembered by the
Presbyterian congregation of our
city, the occasion being the re-
opening and dedication of the re-
constructed edifice. The year 1921
marks the twenty-first anniver-
sary of the church building. The
fifth of May, twenty-one years
ago, was day of similar re-
ioicing.
The reconstructed church is
quite perfect in its way and it has
been a source of much satisfac-
tion and great pleasure to its
people to see the house of God
growing into a place of beauty
and comfort. Last Sunday it was
re-opened and members, adherents
and others gathered together to
worship with a spirit of thanks
giving.
Two baskets of beautiful chry-
santhemums adorned the altar
"A large choir took a splendid part
in the services which were con-
Quoted by Rev. C. B. Hawkins, of
Lansing, Assistant Synodical Sup
erintendent Of Home Missions.
His address was a plain, straight
forward talk and at its conclusion
his manner and method of money
raising was SO simple, graceful
and pleasing that the people re-
sponded quickly and generously.
The congregation felt that Mr..
Hawkins was a master in handl-
ing a financial project.
The evening services were so
satisfying in every way that all
could say ut is the end of a
Perfect Day." Rev. Hawkins de-
livered a forceful appeal to a
crowded church, carrying many
truths home with great effect.
The music by the choir, accom-
panied by the new pipe organ
stirred the hearts of the people,
and the interest in all the services
was great.
Rev. F. D. Mumby, of the Meth
odist Episcopal, Rev. c. F. Stroup,
of the Methodist Protestant, and
Rev. w. F. Boettcher assisted in
the evening service. and many of
their congregations were present.
A dedicatory poem written by
Mrs. Emily Yuill was read by Rev.
Martin. 1t was very appropriate
and pleasing.
With church so completely
reconstructed and made beauti-
full, there should be a period of
growth such as was not possible
before. The beloved minister,
Rev. Alfred Martin, whose efforts
are untiring and whose heart and
mind is given so unstintedly to-
wards his church and its people,
should receive their entire sup
port in furtherance Of a better
and higher life.

NEW YORK, Nov. s0.-Bonds were
the only stable features of today's
active but conclusive stock exchange
session. Liberty issues, almost
withont exception added to their sus-
taiHPd rise and other seasoned bonds
continue to strengthen, but the share
list was hesitant or reactionary.
Oils, steels, equipments, chemicals,
fertilizers and food specialties made
gross recessions of one to five points.
Prominent miscellaneous issues were
lower by one to three points. Heavi-
ness of oils which did not extend to
Standard Oil of New Jersey and the
European group, was accumulated by
reports that Mexico contemplates an
increase of the export tax.
Selling of rails seemed in the ma
ture of a professional movement to
create weakness in industrials.
Sales 10000 shares.
A more hopeful feeling in indust-
rial circles was indicated by the
declaration of the regular dividend on
Railway Steel Spring, common, not
withstanding the admission that the
dividend had not been earned.
Money rates were firm in connec-
ton with December disbursements,
call loans opening at 5 per cent and
advancing to 51z in the final hour.
Some easement of time funds were
indicated by more liberal offerings
of 80 and so day accommodations
Leading foreign exchanges rose
substantially on announcement that
the. United States intends to par
ticipate in the proposed meeting of
European bankers which has for its
object the sterilization of interna-
tional credits. Sterling demand bills
rose a fraction over 81 and all the
continental quotations were higher by
7 to Is poins, the Dutch rate alone
reacting.
Advances among Liberty bonds
ranged from 10 cents per 800 TO
more than 81 final prices easing,
however, on profit taking. The same
