WHAT SHOULD A GREAT VIOLIN
IST PLAY?
Eddy Brown a Master at Program
Building

Building
The problem of a program is pract-
ically the most difficult in violinist's
life At least such is the opinion of
Eddy Brown, the young American
violinist, who will appear in recital in
the Music Festival Week program at
the Fort Hays Kansas Normal School,
Sunday, May 1st, at 8 100 o'clock.
According to Mr.. Brown sit is not
sufficient that 1 or any other violinist
make a program that will disclose a
command of our chosen instrument.
In addition we must please the public
by providing it with variety of style
and content. We must have one or
two pieces that are purely technical
and which disclose the kind of violin
istic fireworks without which a GER
tain portion of that large public must
be displeased; we must have a sonata
or two of the classic type just to
The Hays free press. [volume] (Hays, Kan.) 1908-1924, 1921-04-07

prove that we have command of the
worlds oldest and to some folks way
of thinking, the best style of musical
composition; then we must always
have the little, at times inconsequen-
tial pieces, which are delightful to the
average listener because they are
short and generally familiar. So far
l have outlined what ought to please
the average audience"
But there is another type of list
ener," went on Mr.. Brown. 81 refer
to the musician and the newspaper
critics. They are tired of what has
become for them stereotyped COM
position; they want long programs of
music that have historical interest as
well as musical. And they will not be
pleased with the program that pleases
the general public What do l do
about them? Well, 1 am afraid I
have to ignore their wishes. After
all they are not the people who en-
gage me, and certainly owe them
less than l do those who hear me play
simply for the satisfaction of killing
an evening listening to the violin.''

summary execution for the killing of
trespassing fowls is legal.
Heretofore the owner of fowls has
been exempt from the necessity of
keeping them penned up. The philos-
ophy of the law under the old theory
was that the owner of lands likely to
be invaded by hungry and destructive
chickens should protect himself
against such raids by the erection of
a chicken-tight fence. 1t was his
business to keep the chickens out,
not the chicken owners business to
keep the chickens up. The fault in
this theory is at once obvious, for the
owner OF few chickens might be the
cause of great expense to many
neighbors, whereas by shouldering
the burden OF any one of his neigh
+bors he could protect all. Thus the
law advances toward justice.
The new law makes an outlaw of
the rowing chicken. With its status
thus defined, the cause of countless
neighborhood feuds is removed, or at
least the burden of blame is cast upon
the owner of the peripatetic fowls,

GOLDEN BELT NOTES

One of the Southern men, accomp-
anied by a representative of the
Texas Oil Refinery, passed over the
route this week, located the oil tanks
at Olmitz, Pfeifer, Munjor and Cath
airline, while crude oil tanks will be
located on the Frank King place in
the southeast part of town, where it
IS proposed to locate, as shown in the
Interstate application, the brick
kilns and the paper mill, using straw
to make the paper, the fuel being
crude oil, which will be brought over
the Santa Fe from Texas to Great
Bend and then on north over this
road.
They also approved of the route, as
shown m the Interstate application,
of the through line from Texas to
Nebraska, to run north from Munjor,
under the Union Pacific track at the
big culvert just west of Toulon. 1t
would require the company to tear
out the embankment and culvert
there lately erected by the county,
and put in a high bridge the same
height as the railroad bridge. The
bridge man was here on Monday and
Tuesday. At Catharine, while the
main track will go just of the
town, mile spur will be built north
of the town to the east, to put the
elevator near the center of the town
ship to accommodate the wheat ship
pers.
As Dory Gosser had offered to give
the company handsome present to-
ward the depot when the road was
built into Buckeye township, they de-
cided the name of the depot and ter
minal in Buckeye should be known as
GOSSER DEPOT, instead of Hya-
cinth as shown in the Interstate
papers. They also decided that if
permission to5fcross the Fort Hays
Reservation was granted, if Hays
wanted the road and the City Com
missioners granted the road permits
sion, as at Great Bend, to cross the
streets and use some of the streets on
the east side to get to the railroad
track, that no application would be
made to the Union Pacific for a
switch at Toulon, but all connection
between the two roads would be on
the long switch in Hays, east of Pine
street and the proposed new freight
depot, and that the terminals should
be at Great Bend and Hays. Hays
has not yet granted the permission,
but Great Bend has and the applica-
ton papers for switches at Great
Bend are ready to be sent in to the
Missouri Pacific and the Santa Fe
railroads, so material contracts can
be made when ready.

The New Athletic Entertainment

The New Athletic Entertainment
The athletic exhibitions staged at
the K. of C. Home, Friday evening
last, were a big success and were
thoroughly enjoyed by everyone of
the large audience in attendance. The
fistic contestants, although not polish
ed or flooded with cleverness, showed
every inch of the route to be asking
for and giving what every good fight
er calls gameness. The wrestling
bouts were thoroughly enjoyed and
some great talent was uncovered.
This being the first attempt of it's
kind in this section of the state, the
management feels proud to have af-
forded the entertainment it was said
to have been and to have found such
attractive talent which when proper
ly matched will give a decidedly in
teresting show for the public, and
which the management intends to
stage in the near future, probably
two weeks or so. The management
IS always looking for contestants in
either boxing or wrestling and any
one wishing to go on can rest assured
that we will do our best to match him
to his equal. The wrestling contests
were ably and satisfactorily refereed
by DR.. X. j. Moye, while Charley
Kissing interested US with the prompt
ness and good judgment with which
he Kept the boys going every minute
of the boxing game. The idea of the
entertainment originated with Pete
Holzmeister's band members and the
Athletic Club who checked it up to
Frank A. Kissing and Prof. Weigel to
make of it the success that it was.
The boys attacked and defended to
the tune of the K. of C. Band, which
played interesting selections before
and during the performance. DR..
Hennerich assisted the committee in
planning the program. DIR. Betthau-
ser conducted the physical examina-
ton of the contestants.

add TAXABLE PROPERTY

Proposed Line From Great Bend to
Hays Would be Good Thing
"Great Bend will have a big addi-
ton to the taxable property of the
city if the proposed railroad from
Great Bend to Hays is built, as plan
ned. Over two miles of track will be
located in the city and the road will
form belt line connecting the Santa
Fe and the Missouri Pacific railroads.
AThe City Commissioners recently
granted the promoters of the new
road the right to run from their con-
nection with the Santa Fe railway up
the center of Tyler street, over a mile
into the township adjoining north
toward Hays, with a spur track from
Tyler street east through the middle
of 18th street a mile to connection
with the Missouri Pacific, their new
depot and terminal grounds to be

For Irish Relief

The American Committee for Re-
lief in Ireland, whose campaign of
fifteen days in Kansas opened April
4, will not solicit local branches of
the Red Cross for contributions
The Society will contribute to Irish
relief, but it will be in lump sum of
100000 by the main office in New
York. In the meantime the campaign
is we'll on in Kansas, and from all
reports received by state headquar-
tiers, at Pittsburg, Chairman P. j.
Mckinley and Secretary T. A. Thoma
are quite hopeful of the result. The
Kansas quota is $4,000, and it ought
to be subscribed easily. However, it
all depends on the zeal and industry
of the local committees.
The State organization desires to
impress upon the public, and the local
county Chairman as well, that this
relief campaign is humanitarian
wholly; men and women of all polit-
ical relations or religious creeds join
ing in it. 1t is not for the benefit of
able-bodied men, but wholly for the
relief of hungry and homeless women
and children and aged men in Ireland.
The fund derived by the campaign
will be conserved as carefully and dis
tributed as conscientiously as the
money, food, clothes and medicines
sent to Belgium in 1914 was. The
design is to save the helpless mothers
and children of a Christian race.
