MUSIC.

rOsEF ROSENBLATT, the cantor
> tenkr, has many original ideas
about music and the pleasure 1T gives
Most people," he remarks. love
music far more than they know. but
their natural liking for the art is
often checked by convention. Some
how or other she public has gained
the impression that people must un-
derstand music to appreciate It, For
this reason people are continually
saving, I like music. even though
don't understand IT.
IAN attitude of this sort Is quite
wrong, for an appreciation of music
is by no means dependent on formai
study of the subject. OF course. II is
very pleasant and satisfactory to
know how music is organized and
why 1t is well written: yet natural
Joy in melody itself is a far greater
thing. Music Is undeniably one OF
the most. IL not the most. gratifying
of all arts. and its influence on the
individual is automatic with the
hearing.
"I personally advise people to listen
to music without affectation; to enjoy
the mood and themes without wor-
rying whether or not they are ad-
miring the correct thing. Doing 80
will unconsciously develop their mu-
sical taste and simultaneously give
them greater pleasure"

to various schools in the town, and
for about two and one-half years he
was under the instruction Of Roman
Catholic priest, Father MCGUIRE, then
aged SO, who perceived in him un-
common intelligence and precocious
talent.
suddenly and without special cause
David left the monastery and Joined

peared as q miniature clown. A Sc
rious illness put an end to this ad-
venture, and he returned to his home.

carried on. at the Victoria Theater
