LONDON. July 3O.-Not since be-
fore the war and probably not then
has there been such an exodus from
London as began Friday. Monday Is
a bank holiday, which in England
means a legal holiday, and all busi-
ness is suspended from Friday un-
til Tuesday morning.
All the railroad stations are
crowded with families going to the
seaside and porters struggling with
mountains of baggage. The crush
was Increased by the fact that yes
terday the railways published ad-
vertisements Offering holiday rates.
The London General Omnibus Com
pany estimates il will carry 5000
600 extra passengers during the pc
riod, and all the railroads are run

Serbian Melodies Solemn.

The Serbian melodies are solemn and
impressive, and have a strong affinity
with their church music. The Hun
garian songs, on the other hand, show
vitality and impetuosity to an extraor-
binary degree. They are mostly in
two-four time, but both the rhythms
and the time change continually. and
the music is full Of pauses at effective
moments and of modulations into I'M
expected keys, which correspond to
constant changes in the sentiment of
