Commenting on the parallel, Sir
George remarks: "Whether the song
vas composed before the symphony or
the symphony before the song is a
matter OF doubt Mr.. Thayers chrono-
logical list giving only the general
date 181O-'15 for the whole Of the ma
tional songs. But inasmuch as the
triplet figure and the interval of u
minor sixth are integral parts of both,
and as the phrase is so much stronger
in the symphony than it is in the song,
the SONG probably is the earlier of the
two
We fear there was some confusion
here in Sir Georges mind. The Peter
sketches were begun in 1909; the sym
phony was completed, along with its
successor, the Eighth. early in 1912.
The Irish song set to the tune of ''Nora
Creina" was in the set arranged by
Beethoven which Thomson notes as re-
ceived in 1913, though they were pub
lished later. In his first set Of Welsh
airs Thomson had already included one
called "The March of the Monks of
Bangor" in the postlude Of which
Beethoven made use Of the following
passage:

Dc not the slurs and the dots over
tae figure in sixteenth notes indicate
plainly the form which the theme had
in his mind from the beginning? OF
course, this evidence is not necessary.
Tor the phrase speaks for itself when
played by the flute solo in the SYM
phony, and we think (shrinkingly, of
course. in the awesome presence Of
Coates, Damrosch, a Stransky
ard MonteuX-we have yet to hear
from Mengelberg) it ought also be per-
mitted to speak itself out when played
by the violins. Meanwhile we shall
live in hope.
There is a singular illustration of
how the corrupted form Of the phrase
has fixed itself in the minds of musi-
clans in Sir George Groves discussion
cf the Seventh in his "Beethoven and
His Nine Symphonies" book which
has our unbounded admiration for its
scholarship, its literary grace and its
knowledge and appreciation of the his
tory and contents of the great SYM
phonist's masterpieces. In his essay
Sir George calls attention to q dis
covery communicated to him by Sir
Charles Villiers Stanford, which is that
in the accompaniment which Beethoven
wrote for the Irish air known as Mora
Creina' these four measures occur:

Moreover, there is neither tripiet
nor a minor sixth in the accompani-
ment. A characteristic element in it
IS tne iatted seventh in the seventh
measure The melody is in six-eight
time; Beethoven's in two-four, and the
eighths are therefore not triplets.
There is no evidence that Beethoven
looked upon the fourth measure as any
thing more than commonplace. He
saw something more in the seventh
measure, for in copy Of his arrange

nority stockholders. The concern has
no other source of revenue than our
contributions. 1t doesn't make any
money. In times like these, whenal-
most everybody feels that he gets too
little for what he sells and has to pay
too much for what he buys, 1t seems
to me the least we can do is to take
an active and intelligent interest in
this great common enterprise of ours
and make sure that 1t is well organ
lied that it doesn't waste or spend
extravagantly; that the employees are
paid an adequate wage and have
proper working conditions; that their
morale is kept high and their enthu-
siasm In our interest unabated; in fine,
that as business 1t shall be conduct

The Magic of Chemistry Which Makes Co
of Value for One Purpose in War
and Another in Peace
No. VII
(Told In Eight sketches)
BY JOHN RAYMOND
WAR AND PEACE

The art of warfare is as old as tine
race itself Warfare at first consisted
OF throwing stones at the enemy or
hitting him with club.
The art slowly progressed. The
catapuf was used for hurting good
sized rocks and the bow and arrow
served its purpose in stand-off COM
bats Thus it went for many CEN
turtles. Warfare consisted of ninety
per cent hand to hand work and per-
haps ten per cent of shooting from a
distance.
Along about 1345 an old monk found
that gunpowder when properly ignited,
gave vent to pretty good sized noise.
England and France were at war and
the new invention was tried out at
the battle OF Crecy with the result that
the horses became frightened at the
noise like thunder Losses were heavy
and gunpowder was voted success.
Warfare didn't advance greatly for
centuries. To be sure many improve
ments in guns and explosives were
MADE but the basic principle remained
the only way to put an enemy out
OF commission was to hit him with a
projectile.
On the morning of April 22, 1915,
warfare was revolutionized when a
cloud of Chlorine gas was sent over
the Allied trenches wiping out whole
regiments. This experiment proved
so successful that the war, opening as
t did, 100 per cent explosive, ended
IS per cent chemical.
These war gases are of particular in
tcrest to the student of chemistry

WHISKY STILL RAID
NETS 100000

Denver, Jan. 1.-TWO hundred whis-
ky stills of varying capacity from four
to fifty gallons and valued at more
than $4,000, retail prices, according
to the police, were seized by the fed
eral prohibition agents in a Wholesale
raid on a downtown hardware and
novelty store" late today.
Fl. J. Jacobs, the proprietor, was ar
rested. Fifty coils of copper and rs
feet Of sheet copper also was eonfis-
Gated.
The raid was supervised by District
Federal Prohibition Director e. Fl.
McClenahan, who characterized it ~
the "largest seizure Of whisky stills
in the entire west.''
1t was charged the store WAS the
distribution point Of stills for boot
leegers for the Rocky Mountain re-
gion.
