STRAIN PUT ON PIANOS
CAUSES Loss OF TUNE

Not many people with pianos in
their homes know that each of those
attractive looking and tuneful prod
ucts of iron and steel is under n
constant strain OF close to twenty
tons or 10000 pounds.
The instrument is under this strain
steadily from the time IL leaves the

When any combination of wood

HARDING SPONSORS
MUS|CF0R CAPITAL
Writes That He Wishes Every
Success in National Con-
servatory Project.

For the first time in the history oi
the United States a President in Office
states over his own signature hi,
attitude toward the art of music in its
higher phases.
In the following letter to Arthur
NJ. Abell, the distinguished writer oI
music. Warren G. Harding endorse,
the movement now on foot in Wash
ington for the furtherance OF good
music in the National Capital and
throughout the country:
what you have written to me
about the effort to develop interest
in and taste for good music In
Washington. and, indeed. through
out the nation, has very much sp-
pealed to me, perhaps in part be-
cause i have been a very little of
an amateur myself. / know IL has
been said that arts have not always
been SO much favored under Re-
publican as monarchic forms OF
government. but i think fair sur
vey will justify a very frank diff
ference of opinion on that point
Surely. the encouragement OF the
arts in Greece and in France under
the institutions of democracy can
hardly be cited in support Of such a
thesis. Likewise, the history OF
our own and the other American
republics l think justifes the opin-
ion that artistic taste and interest
may quite as well flourish under the
popular as under the manarchistic
establishment.
AT any rate. ! very much SYM
pathize with their, effort. such as
you suggest. for the betterment of
taste and the expansion OF popular
interest in good music. You have
my best wishes for the success OF
your efforts in that direction"
SCOPE OF THE PLAN.
II In evident from this letter that
President Harding realizes that art
Is one OF the highest forms Of ex-
preston of culture and of civiliza
tion, and that of all branches Of art,
music is the most popular and far
reaching. and therefore an education-
al factor of. great Importance in the
life of a nation.
The efforts referred to by Prcsi-
dent Harding In his letter to Mr.

as their goal the founding OF a Ma

All ambitious young Washington
singers who apply at the National
Theater on Tuesday at 10 q. m. Will
be granted the much coveted hear
ing" that sometimes develops into a
real career for a gifted young artist
by Mr.. Dunbar. He will personally
conduct this series of Hearings"
which will be given to successful ap-
plicants.
s'rALENT. FRIGHTENED AWAY.
How many sensitive young singers,
whose voices would prove of inesti-
mable value to q manager. have made
the long trip to New York or Chicago,
only to be frightened away by the un-
approachableness of managers, or dis
couraged by the oft-repeated come
again" flung at them by an indiffer-
ent underling? Managers need talent.
otherwise they cannot exist-yet why
this eternal high and mighty pose of
utter indifference-particul when
an American boy or girl asks for a
hearing?
Recruiting" American singers and
only American singers" Is Ralph
Dunbar's rule. Mr.. Dunbar Is thor
oughly convinced that there Is undis-
covered operatic talent in practically
every city. That is why the musical
directors of his organizations have
other responsibilities in addition to
conducting the regular performance.
In every city visited by the Dunbar
companies a careful hearing Is given
all local vocalists who apply. When
Mr.. Dnnmar Is present he conducts
these hearings himself. The Dunbar
casts and chorus have been recruited
largely in this manner from the ranks
of young singers previously unknown
to the profession.
sCOURs COUNTRY FOR, VOICES
where does Ralph get his sing
ers?" has been asked over and over
again. The answer is that he goes
out after them and he does no. searci.
only in the big cities either. but
makes special trips to the small towns
all over the country to hear voices.
He believes in American singers and
he also believes that America wan.s
to hear her own.
Mr.. Dunbar also has on tour pro-
ductions of Carmen" aad "Ttt

phony orchestra. the founding of a
stock opera company and the build
ing of an opera house and concert
hall worthy of the Capital of this

that great artists will find II con-
genial place in which to live.
The realization of this plan viii
make Washington one of the great
music centers of the world and viii
greatly enhance the value of the
city as a center OF culture and place
of residence.
REASONS FOR FAILURES.
Heretofore all efforts in this direc-
tion. including the bill for Nation
al Conservatory proposed by Senator
Fletcher and the several seasons of
local symphony concerts under de
Koven, Rakemann and Hammer.
failed because OF lack OF both Gov
ernmentai and popular support.
One OF the chief reasons for the
failure was the mistake of restrict
ing former efforts to music only.
Ore OF the FIRST considerations In the
present plan is the establishment OF
a Bureau OF Fine Arts under Gov
ernment control. with separate de-
partments for music, painting. sculp-
ture, architecture, and the graphic
arts Such bureau is considered
indispensable for the full realization
of the idea
PRESIDENTS MORAL SUPPORT.
Hitherto there has been . total
lack of interest on the part of those
In the foremost Government circles
who had both the influence and the
power necessary to further the cause.
It is realized here that In appeal
ing direct to the highest authority In
the land and receiving a written
statement from the Chief Executive.
Mr.. Abell has rendered great service
to the cause.
The moral support OF the Pfest-
dent Is considered in art circles TO
be of inestimable value. His letter
seems destined to become an histor-
ical document. IL Is predicted thar
framed copies of II will be hung on
the walls Of every establishment In
The United States in any way con-
nected with music. II indicates that
while President Harding is in ofnce
attention will be given at the white
House not only to the political and
economic, but also to the ethical
welfare of the nation.

BRAVO sToCKGRowERs!

Stockgrowers OF Nevada and Utah
are undoubtedly in the heights of
good spirits at this time. due to the
heavy fall of snow that has visited
this territory in such an orderly ia
shion during the last week.
From all appearances there are
at least eight inches of snow on the
level, all of which will tend to en-
nance the prospects of the farmer
and rancher for the ensuing sea
son.
This is just another of those evi
dences that all matters will adjust
themselves If we but guide our time
and play the game in the meantime.
With mining prospects of this dis
trict, for the year, brighter than in
many years passed, in spite OF the
low metal markets, with economic
conditions, as they effect the indivl
dual, making a slow but sure coun-
teraction on the during-the-war
fuctuation, and lastly with the
precinitation during the winter
months up to or above the average
making for the ultimate success OF
the farmer and the stockgrower
there is every reason to believe tina
Nevada will share in the prosperit!
that is certain to be apparent in the
world during the year.

Moncoose In Trinidad.

The mongoose was originally intro
duced into Trinidad from st. Lucia for
the purpose of Kidding the island Of
both rats and snakes, but at the pres
ent time II Is itself considered a very
serious pest. Moreover the sugar pro-
duction of Trinidad has diminished
somewhat during the last few years,
chiefly because Of the ravages of frog
hcppers. since the lizards. which for
merry kept them in check, are being
exterminated by the mongoose. In fact,
many estate owners In Trinidad pay
q shilling a head for every mongoose
destroyed on their estates, and many
thousands are destroyed every year
without any attempt being made to
save the skins. Consul Baker, there
fore, suggests that possibly these mon
goose skins might have considerable
economic utility'in the United States,
and has forwarded sample of such
a skin to the bureau of foreign and
domestic commerce, where 1t may be
examined by Interested persons.
