Of recent years. There is infinite

Genius will be genius. whether 1t
works through the contrapuntal
medium OF Bach, the clean-cut dia-
tonic structure Of Beethoven. the
growing harmonies of Liszt and Wag-
ner, or the more involved progressions
of recent years. But no mere adoption
of one method or another will change
talent into genius. For this reason,
much OF today's music will prove
ephemeral, as were the contrapuntal
experiments of Okeghem's time. But
some of the works show genius. and

lortaht results Of that great conflict
was the wrestling OF the Holy Land
from the unholy control of the fiend-
ish Turk and its setting up as once
more a Christian country, under mod
ern Christian rule. And since the
day that General Ailenbys forces
marched into Jerusalem and raised the
standard OF Great Britain there.
Palestine has taken a new hold on the
