Little Fellow.

Just a little fellow mischievous of
eye,
Doesn't know and doesn't care that
shoes are hard to buy;
Laughing, romping, all the time,
needless as can be,
Fancying that he can get all he
wants from me.
Just little fellow, somewhat fond
of dirt,
Seems we cannot teach him to be
careful Of his shirt;
Clothes are made to play in, and
when he wears them out
He wonders when we grumble what
the fuss is all about.
Just little fellow, all he knows is
having fun,
Care and strife and trial haven't
come to cloud the sun;
His legs are never weary, and the
times. he hears US sigh
And he sees that we are troubled, it
is plain he wonders why.
Just little fellow, with his hareum-
scareum ways,
Mischievous and roguish and his
eyes with mirth ablaze,
But what are shoes and stockings
and the things l must provide
It's worth it all to have him romping
daily at my side.

Smile.

When you think life's LIT worth
while
Sit straight up and force a smile.
Smile and shake your head at fate
Hit the line; don't hesitate.
Smile and say World, howdy do;
Here's a looking straight at you!"
Shake yourself and force smile
You'll see clear sky after while.
When you meet a brother smile;
Grasp his hand, walk double file.
Smile and say, Hello, old chum;
Cheer up; don't be sad and glum!"
Smile and every time you do
1t pays interest to you.
Waste of time salt tears to she'd
Smile and keep on straight ahead.
In the crowded market place
Keep glad smile on your face.
Frown, and you give birth to doubt
Next thing you'll be down and out.
Smile and say, Things coming fine
Only carload lots in mine"
Waste of time to sigh and sob
Smile, and stick tight to the job.

Sherman at Barnwen
By L. A. Vandiver

In an interesting article, .'@Tales
of Old Barnwell," written by Louise
Aver Vandiver and printed in the
Columbia State, the author, in de-
scribing the burning of Barnwell
by Sherman's men, gives the follow
mig account of how the home of
Judge A. P. Aldrich was saved.
Another stately home that escap-
ed the torch was ''The Oaks" the
residence of Judge A. P. Aldrich.
Thrice was fire set to it, but each
time the intrepid mistress, standing
guard over a negro boy to prevent
the incendiaries doing him harm,
ordered him to extinguish the flames.
She so won the admiration of the
Yankee soldiers that they desisted
from efforts to destroy the house
over the heads of her helpless child
rem and herself, its only occupants
at the time, as the men Of the fami-
lyswere in the army"
This incident is described more
fully in history privately printed
by the late Judge Aldrich, of Aiken,
as follows:
s'Mrs. Aldrich felt the horrors of
war. Sherman's army in its march
to the sea passed through Barnwell
county and nearly destroyed the
town. Her husbands Office, contain
ing his law library which included
in it the splendid libraries of the
elder Johnson Hagood, ESQ.,, and
Angus Patterson, which Mr.. Aldrich
had purchased, was among the first
buildings burned. The soldiers then
after burning outbuildingss upon the
premises, and plundering the dwell
ing, attempted several times to
burn it; but Mrs. Aldrich, assisted
by her faithful servants, had extin-
guished the flames. The soldiers
seemed determined to burn the
house, and Mrs Aldrich resolved to
prevent it. A mother in the defense
Of her helpless children is always
a dangerous antagonist, and in the
veins of this South Carolina matron
flowed the blood of the spirited
Celt and unconquerable Scot. How
the contest would have ended can
never be known, for, at the critical
moment, young officer of Penn
sylvania regiment, appeared upon
the field and seeing the brutality of
the soldiers, ordered them away.
@tThe eyes of the officer fell upon
a picture of the Patterson Coat of
Arms, hanging on the wall, and he
asked with surprise and inquisitive
look, Madam, what is your name?'
The answer was: Mrs Aldrich;" but
noting the look at the picture, she
added, This is the Coat of Arms of
my ancestors; my maiden name was
Patterson The officer replied: My
name, also is Patterson; my ances-
tors were from Scotland, and that is
a picture of their Coat of Arms, and
we must be related He left hur-
riedly, as his regiment was on the
march; but he took time to see high

The Death of Julian Walker

Information comes, rather tardily, of
the death on September 1S of Julian
Walker, for space bass singer who
inspired good deal of deserved ad-
miration in our concert rooms. Little
was heard of him, except by his inti-
mate friends, since 1907, when an ac-
cidentai fall in Washington cost him
the loss of the power of locomotion.
In April, 1909, benefit concert was
given in his behalf by Mr.. Bispham,
the Musical Art Society and others.
he kept on teaching till last april,
wheR he took to the bed from which
he never arose. Mr.. Walker was a
thoroughly musicianly artist, who had
studied pianoforte and violin before he
became professional singer. He was
born in Manchester, England, and came
to this country when sixteen years old.
A fund is being raised to pay the ex-
penses of his final illness and burial.
Inc treasurer is John M. Fulton, Of
the Musicians Club, 173 Madison Ave-
nue., New York City.

Dictums and Musical Taste
OF Cincinnati's New Conductor
ritz heiner speaks Oracularly About American
Music and Jazz; Musical Redemption
Through Banjo and Saxophone

how young Mr.. Reiner is, but Trib.
une reorter, who introduced him ia
some features of New York's night life
on his arrival from Europe, told us
that he is "the youngest symphony or
chestra conductor ever to visit the
United States Since we do not i'm
port conductorial prodigies, we take il
That he is at least out Of his teens
but the younger he is the more gladly
and willingly do we sit at his feet
for the more does he know Of the spirit
of the age of American life and Of its
expression, Though he had never
heard "jazz" before, forty-eight hours
after he set foot on American soil he
knew that it expressed American life,
particularly because Of the use Of the
saxophone and banjo" And he pre-
ferred "jazz'' to the waltz because the
waltz was the dance Of the sentimen-
talist, whereas jazz holds the rhythm
of the unsentimental man or woman
And he preferred ''jazzn because it had
more poetic qualities (also, we sup
pose, more artistic potentialities) than
the waltz. Ergo, music is to be with
out sentiment in the future. Fortunate
we who shall not hear it.
And then Mr.. Reiner spoke oracu-
larry of the music (the "best music")
of the future, which was to be in
,fuenced by jazz, not only in America
but in Europe. 1t is already "infuenc-
ing the best compositions abroad" as
witness the fact that Stravinsky has
used syncopation in his works. Syn
copation is centuries older than Stra-
whisky or jazz, and what Mr.. Reiner
probably meant was it's perverted and
excessive use, which. together with
much clatter on the traps" and the
absence of pleasurable melody, is the
characteristic feature of the popular
dance music Of to-day. This music has
steadily deteriorated spontaneously
with the loss in melodic invention for
years. If Mr.. Reiner's musical taste is
reflected by his enjoyment of it we are
sorry for the patrons of the Cincinnati
Symphony concerts. 1t is also inter
esting to note that the combination of
the saxophone and banjo met with espe-
cial approval in Mr.. Reiner's apprecia-
tiop of American music. What night
mare such union would have given to
poor old Adolphe Saxi
