LINCOLN ACTIVITIES TO
CONTINUE AS BEFORE

Increased activities at the great
Lincoln factories in Detroit are ex-
pected Immediately. ~tlt. =
twill doubtless prove a source Of
much qualification to motordom at
large that in such circumstances
there aresno. material changes con-
templated in Lincoln policies. as far
as concerns motor car purchasers.
There have been a number Of Le-
land-built cars in the Ford private
garages for some years past, and in
view Of the high esteem in which the
Fords have always held Leland prac-
tees and ideals, it could hardly be
expected that they would have any
inclination to do otherwise than
thoroughly endorse the preservation
Of the quality standards upon which
the Lincoln car was founded.
In fact both Mr.. Ford and Mr.. Le-
land have repeatedly gone on record
that it will be their purpose unalter-
ably to maintain the established Le-
land standards. ..
1t has also been stated by the same
men that there will be no disposition
to force production beyond the die
tates of sound judgment. 1t is ex-
pected, however, that.ne conditions
will effect certain benefits which can
be passed along to purchasers in the
way ct more attractive prices. ..
Among the other advantages which
are expected to be derived from the
Leland-Ford utilization, it is seen that
the new Lincoln company will be as
sured Of abundant funds to meet the
needs Of legitimate and judicious
expansion. r. ~~- So.

ORCHESTRA APPEARS IN
AN ALL.RUSSIAN PROGRAM
Tschaikowsky, Borodlne and Nous
sorssky the Composers Represe nted

Yesterdays concert of the Philadel-
phia Orchestra was made up entirely OF
compositions of the later Russians, for
whose music Mr.. Stokowski has a deep
feeling and which he therefore con-
ducts with perhaps greater sympathy
than he does any of the other pro-
nounced nationalistic schools.
The concert began with the Fourth
symphony Of Tschaikowsky, the first
of the trilogy of symphonies of sorrow
which have made the name of the great
apostle of misanthrophy famous
throughout the musical world. The work
was conducted throughout in this
spirit, with the possible exception of
the closing movement which was taken
ut a furious tempo, so fast as at times
to interfere with the coherency Of tho
instruments. Mr.. Stokowski was evi-
IDENTIFY not in full sympathy yesterday
with the apparent intent of the COM
poser. for he has given us many better
readings of this impassioned compost
tiOn. The sChcrZO made its usual hit,
and was finely performed the tre-
mendously difficult pizzacato passages OF
the strings being cleanly Mayed, despite
the tempo, and fine contrast being
offered in the trio of the wood winds.
The symphonic poem of Moussorgsky
Is as open to question as great work,
as it was when first performed in Phil
adelphia many years ago by Mr.. Scheel.
There Is little in it which conforms to
its program except the slow movement.
According to Mr.. Gilman's program
notes, the composition has undergone a
number of changes, according to the
changing mood of the composer, and
this impression is conveyed to the
hearer. who is but impcrfectly ac-
quaintcd with the history of the COM
position. 1t was finely performed. but
failed to carry with it entire conviction,
just as 1t did when it was first per-
formed in Philadelphia. There are
many spots of great beauty, but as a
whole the work does not carry the
stamp of the genius of Boris Goudu-
noff.'
The Polovetski dances. from prince
Igor" of Borodine closed the program.
They are essentially Russian, wild and
primitive in their character, and were
performed in the spirit of their COM
position. The orchestration is that of
Rimsky- Korsokoff, the modern savior
of many Russian melody and rhythm.

to the marvels Of today, but it created
tremendous sensation.
This scene was done with "The Lit
tie tycoon" the first of the series of
remarkably successful light operas,
written by Willard Spenser, which in
cluded such favorites rs Miss Bob
White and Princess Bonnie" When
Tycoon, was presented at the old
between Seventh and Eighth, Spenser
had the interior built inside the garden
scene. All the stage properties
chairs. tables. rugs and what not
were fastened by strings which went
into the flies. When it came time for
the quick change, the lights suddenly
went out, the interior scenery was
raised or pulled aside, the properties
were hauled into the wings and the
lights were again turned on, disclosing
the garden scene. Such a quick change
or an entire scenic setting had never
been attempted before, and it created
no end Of enthusiasm.
In those days, too, it was often nee
essary to run wires from the theatre
to the nearest newspaper Office or big
store which had an electric plant. The
theatres and oil the houses were lighted

THE CRITIC TALKS TO MUSIC LOVERS

position was approached only by Mo-
zart, and he had none Of that scrutiniz-
ing self criticism which led Beethoven
to rewrtte more than thirty times one
part Of "Fidelip"--and then return TO
the first version. The result is a
difuseness and in some cases repe-
tition in many Of Schubert's works
which is their chief weakness. His
friends urged him to revise and once
placed the manuscript of work Of
Beethoven's before him, showing the
pains which that great master took In
even the smallest details. But IL was
not Schubert's way to compose, and he
declared that to him the way Beethoven
had first written the part was quite as
good as the final version.
What would have been the result
w had Schubert received even q por-
tion Of the musical education which
Mozart had is a matter for interesting,
though naturally futile, speculation. II
IL would have given him control over
the enormous spontaneity Of his genius
he would have risen to heights which
no other composer would probably have
reached, for it thus would have cor
rected the only fault which Schu-
bert had as a composer. On the other
hand, Il might have seriously inter-
fered with this very spontaneity, which
is one Of his greatest charms.
Mozart's melodies. wonderful as they
are, nevertheless possess something o.
the mathematical element when com
pared 10 Schubert's That is. they are
melodies which usually are capable of
treatment, because Mozart
