UNABLE TO RECOGNIZE TUNES
Many People of Commanding Ability
Have Admittedly Lacked Appre-
citation ef Music.

Lord Brickenhead, lord high chan
cellor DIETER known in America
some years ago as Freddy Smith)
confessed at public dinner recently
that he recognized the tune of God
Save the King" only because people
stand up when it was being played
Some other famous people had an
equally poor ear for music-one, the
Empress Eugene. DR.. Ethel Smyth,
who for 80 years was a neighbor Of
the empress during her English exile
at Farnboro and was constantly in
her company, says she was totally
devoid of musical instinct. Once when
a local band struck up "Partant pour
la Syrie' in her honor the empress
mstook it for "God Save the King"
Sir Walter Scott was equally i'm
pervious to music, though many pas
sages in his writings imply that he
liked and understood It, "In music"
he told Lord Melbourne, II don't know
high from low"
Swinburne's lack of musical ear was
a byword among his acquaintance.
Edmund Gosse describes practical
joke "played on Swinburne, which
made me indignant at the time but
which now seems innocent enough and
not without interest A lady, having
taken the rest of the company into
her confidence, told Swinburne that
she would render on the piano a very
ancient Florentine ritornello just dis
covered. She then played Three
Blind Mice and Swinburne was en-
chanted. He found that 1t reflected
to perfection all the cruel beauty of
the Medicis-which perhaps it does."-

No Place for Tobacco Fiends.

AS precaution against forest fires
smoking has been entirely prohibited
in any part of the Olympic national
forest in Washington. The area COW
cred by the mo smoking" order
mounts to about $4,000 acres. The
period of this prohibition is to be de-
termined by the district forester at
Portland, Oregon. The urgent reason
for this action is due to the fact that
the area was largely swept by a cy-
clone during the last winter and the
ground is covered with broken trees
and branches of trees so that if a fire
were to get any Roadway at ALL 1t
would be difficult to check it.
