COMPOSERS ARE
ENCOURAGED IN
HOOSIER STATE
DIV FREDERIC j. HAsKIN

NGSlllliSIDrt u. -, may O.
Indiana is the first state TO make
a special effort to encourage its
own musical composers, accord"
ing to Grace Porterfield Polk,
well known song writer of In
diana.
Three years ago, Mrs. Polk de-
termined to do for other Indiana
folk Just what she wished some-
one had done for her when she
was a struggling composer. She
had had to work alone, trusting
in her own judgment to divine
what was good and bad in her
early attempts. She had had TO
learn, by slow experiment, ways
to success that an experienced
song writer could have explained
to her in a few minutes talk. She
decided that in future the young
composers of ser state at least
should profit by the experience OF
others.
Accordingly she began to offer
a group OF annual prizes for the
best original songs submitted by
persons native or resident of the
Iioosiere state. Prizes for the best
art songs and ballads were offer
ed, and also a prize for the best
manuscript by junior composer.
Mrs. Folks belief that Indiana
needed this sort OF encouragement
was justified. From farms, home
steads and city offices manu-
scripts came into Greenwood, the
suburb of Indianapolis where Mrs.
Polk lives. More than 200 entries
were made in the first year of the
contest. Last year $50 manu-
scripts came in. This year the
number will probably he larger,
though the art song prizes have
been discontinued. 1t was found
| that an art song to the amateur
composer meant a very compli-
Gated and ambitious work. Many
of the contestants were not ready
for intricate compositions. SO y
was decided to concentrate on bal
lad forms.
The prizes arc awarded every
year at the American Song Com
posers' festival held at Greenwood
in June. The festival is another
idea for encouraging homo talent,
both state and national. Each
year many musical composers
come to Greenwood for a three
days celebration and festival
Both experienced composers and
amateurs, some from distant
states, come to this convention in
the cause of American music
The beginners set helpful sugges.
| tons and counsel, the older mu-
sicians consult together, and all
get inspiration for their work il
| the concerts and meetings.
Mrs. Polk is especially interested
in the rising generation of musi-
clans. For several years she was
| junior chairman of the National
Federation OF Music club, and she
Is still the champion of the strug-
Cling composer, and of the poten-
tial composers in the school room
who have not yet realized, perhaps
that they have unwritten songs
running in their heads.
Every state should encourage Its
home musicians, and particularly
the young composers. The surest
way to promote American music is
TO interest the young people and
give them the assistance they
should have.
Concrete Suggestions.
There are various ways of doinI
this. The National Federation O.
Music clubs is working to interes
boys and girls of the grammar ant
high school age by forming then
into Junior Music clubs. Thes,
clubs give recitals, and sometime
the programs are made up entirel.

the first of the seasons monthly
dinners Thursday night at the Y. M.
C. A. building. On account of coun-
ter attractions, the dinner was not
very we'll attended.

ter. Short speeches were made by
Secretary Harold F. Harris, Rev. o.
b. Crockett, Rev. w. E. Ellis and

The purpose of the meeting was
to discuss the advisability of hold
ing a fall festival and agricultural
show in Paris next month. Because
of the fact that this was the second
attempt to get a majority of the
Paris merchants together to decide
on this matter, and that on neither
occasion was the response such as to
justify action on the part of those
present, it was decided by the Board
of Directors to drop the plan for
this year.
