JAZZ HELD HURTFUL
FHEARD TOO MUCH
Rev. John J. Queally Analyses
Modern Musical Form From
Therapeutic Viewpoint.

"Jazz syncopation, indulged in to
excess, causes responsibility and
robs the mind of sound judgment"
declared Rev. John J. Queally at the
Arts Club of Washington last night.
Rev. Mr.. Queally read paper before
the club upon The Therapeutic Eff
teCts of Music"
Music has always been held as hav-
ing creative power, he said. and all
poets and writer's of past ages have
attributed to music calming and
curative influence. The speaker quot
ed from Shakespeare, Keats. Tenny-
son and others to support his views,
and referred to the use of music in
India, the Orient, among the Ameri-
can Indians and the untutored saw
ages as a part of primative medical
treatment.
Recently medical scientists and
psychologists have experimental with
music, both in connection with the
treatment of disease and also in con-
nection with operations. Mr.. Queally
instanced several cases in which it
was employed as an anesthetic. He
theoriZed on how musical vibrations
helped and attributed to music in
Spiratfon and revelation, as well as
spiritual and psychic force.
His talk was illustra with a
number of appropriate musical selec-
tions rendered by Mrs. James Dicker-
son, Mr.. Ambrose Durkin, Miss May
Adams Stevens, Miss Elsie Rupp and
n section of the vested choir of the
Church of the TRANSPORTATION of
which Mr.. Queally is rector. DR..
James Dickerson accompanied the
artists.
Dr. Percy D. Hickling led the in
formal discussion which followed Mr..
Cueally's paper. He took the ground
that the beneficial effects Of music,
which were undeniable, were due not
to vibrations but to the arousing of
thoughts. He discussed the influence
of music in military way in over
coming fatigue on marches and in
spring men to deeds Of power, as
well as its sedative and curative ef-
fects. He said that the combination
of certain sounds stirred the emo
ttous, stimulated or dulled mental
activity and led to the desired re-
suits. In the course of the evening
t developed that the piano is en-
rloyed successfully in teaching the
deaf to sing correctly. This is ac-
Somplished by the children receiving
vibrations from the strings of the
piano through their finger tips. A
large audience enjoyed the unusual
feature.

They urged ac. ceptance of A recommendation that those living in New Britain be assess cd s2 a month and those coming from out of town s50 year or s5 a day while in the city.
 Come Disguiscsi As Farmers
 As arguments for the increases they advanced the claim that they are now meeting unfair competition. Hartford peddlers coming here with loads D, deeayed and frozen produce which they can quickly sell by placing a layer of wholesome produce over it, They get out of town the same ia; and the local peddlers get the abiisp from housewives who cannot distin- Ruish one peddler from another, the ordinance committee was told al last nights session.
