the sound of the guitar, but Mr..

Symphony Of Sixty
Needs To Seek
New Hour

Doomed to an early demise
because the Washington public
did not sufficiently support
Washington's SYMPHONY Of
Sixty" that was made possible
through the cooperation Of
Harry M. Crandall and the
Tivoli Theater.
That was the sad news that
yesterday reached music lovers
in Washington who hoped to
see a permanent symphony or
chestra become established under
the able baton of Daniel Bree-
skin.
The fault is not with Wash
ington. The fault is not with
the excellent orchestra.
The concerts were given at
2 o'clock on Sunday afternoon,
when all Washington dimes.
The hour is impossible. It
is, of course, the only hour
found available by these busy
professional musicians.
But the fact remains, that
on Sunday at 2 Washington
cannot attend a symphony pro-
gram. Can't we find a solu-
ton?

Mrs. Daniel

How remarkable, that centuries
have elapsed in which great singers
have arisen to fame, and, during
the brief years OF youth given of
their art to the eager world, only
10 pass into silence in the full
bloom Of lniddle,life! This, az we
know. has been the vocal history
" countless numbers Of the most
rarely gifted. And why?" asks
edna Bishop Daniel, teacher of
singing of this city, in an interest
ing article in the Musical Courier
OF October l6. And she answers:
Because the great masters
throughout all the ages of song,
down to our own era, have not
known the delicate instrument upon
which they have taught their pupils
TO play SO Enadly: the little instru-
ment which both sweetly responds
to the gentle master and faithfully
yields its full strength at the COM
nand of the tyrant whose greed Tor
power destroys it.
"At last, there has arisen from
our midst man who, as singer
and as a teacher, has had the iCre-
thought to make a deep and ex-
haustive study Of the vocal in
strument.
Music is muscles. said Mr.. Frank
Patterson, in the course Of con-
versation in the office Of the Must
cal Courier. But Mr.. Patterson is
an instrumentalist and perhaps did
not realize how powerful were his

Crippled voices? Yes. the
Threats Of actually crippled voices,
by means of the Iaryngoscope, were

suit Of ignorance of the construction

ton according to Natures laws,

the tragedy of it all! The writer
saw one with paralysis Of the in
ternal sponsor muscles, one to
whom a singing career is forever
more impossible!
Eyes. music is muscles, but for the
singer, not the strong, forceful
muscles which the vocal profession
has so long over-developed, often

1 FUNDS TO GUARD COAST
 NEEDED FOR PROHIBITION
Treasury Officials Believe That This is Real Solution 10 Enforce
 ment Of Dry Laws.

Washington. Jan. l0.--Treasury of ficials still believe that effective en- forcement of prohibition depends up on sufficient funds to guard the coast line against smuggling, and Secretary Mellon has so informed the budget bureau. which is considering a pro- gram for expending s2S.000.oo0 In eX- pansion of the coast guard.
 Most Of the liquor passing through bootleg channels. Mir. Mellon believes, comes from without the United States He does not think it practical to em- ploy navy craft in the place of the new coast guard ships Ii had been proposed to build because the navy craft available are too expensive to operate and too slow.
 He also holds that the suggestion that the shipping board boats be used 10 check rum running is impractical Most of the shipping board boats not now in use are regarded by him as being of wrong construction for coast guard work. and likely to cost IS much to operate in one year as would be expended in the building of one of the proper type of coast guard craft.
