MUSIC REALM
Mendelssohn
(18O9-184O
German Composer.

Felix Mendelssohn was one of the
great composers who was always sur
rounded by wealth and culture. His
father was a successful banker and a
man of keen intellect.
When the lad was three years OF
age, his mother gave him five minute
lessons on the piano. AS he grew
older, he was given a thorough
course in composition and continued
his piano study. He made his first
public appearance as a pianist at ten
years of age, and was enthusiastically
received.
His sister Fanny, three years older,
was almost as talented as he. The
two children organized Sunday after
noon concerts in their own home, in
which musicians of high standing
took part. Felix was the conductor
of the orchestra, and in order to be
seen, had to stand on stool. In
each of these programs he produced
some new work, which he either
played or conducted with the skill of
an experienced musician.
In later life he travelled through
Europe, visiting many of the princi-
pal cities. In one of his letters, he

MORE WEALTH TAXES UP
Government Figures for Minnesota
Show Big Gains in Per Capita
Wealth Besides Tax Increases

Minnesota public revenues for
1922 were $130,889,080, according
to the latest U. S. census bureau bull
letin. This sum covers all general
property and special taxes, licenses
and assessments and includes the
amouns collected by the state, coun-
ties, townships, cities and villages.
The bulletin besides showing the
increase in taxation during the last
twenty years discloses further that
Minnesota per capita wealth now is
more than double that of 20 years
ago and half again as great as ten
years ago-that despite higher taxes
wealth has multiplied rapidly.
The report recalls a recent report
from another source showing that
state wealth has increased by leaps
and bounds, state holdings being
more than $40 per capita or more
than three times the state debt.

A BAD MESS

Development in the Teapot Dome
lease which former United States
Senator A. B. Fall, negotiated with
the Sinclair Oil Company on behalf
of the United States Government,
while he was acting as Secretary of
Interior, is beginning to smell to
Heaven.
The most startling development
was made Monday however when
Archie Roosevelt, son of the late Elk
President Roosevelt voluntarily and
Unexpectedly appeared before the
Senate investigating committee and
asked to testify. Mr.. Roosevelt had
been connected with the Sinclair Oil
Company as vice president of the
Union Petroleum Company, branch
of the Sinclair Consolidated Oil Cor
poration. Young Roosevelt has been
connected with the company since
August 1st, 1919, and had direct
charge of the export business. Be-
fore the committee Mr.. Roosevelt
stated that the astounding revela-
lions brough to light in connection
with the investigation, made it i'm
possible for him to longer remain in
the Sinclair company. Mr.. Roosevelt
further stated that Wednesday of
last week Mr.. Sinclair left hurriedly
for Europe, although there was no
condition of his foreign business that
demanded visit of anyone connected
with the firm at this time. Sinclair
sailed as an unidentified passenger.
From the evidence brought to
light it appears that the claim that
Senator Fall received 100000 from
Sinclair for making the lease, is just
flied. If the Senate investigation
proves these facts there is no ques-
ton but what the government will
cancel the lease.
In retiring from an extremely
profitable position as soon as he dis
covered that the business was not OPP
Grated on the square, young Roose-
welt is to be very highly commended,
but it is just what one would have. a
right to expect from one of the sons
of Americas greatest citizen since
Abraham Lincoln.

medium of tone, a dramatization of
mood rather than a definite program
of occurrences. This perennial song
of spring is easily the best known
light classic in existence. 1t is in
deed the very spirit of springtime for
when depressed it can bring back the
very joy of living as the spring
brings back the flowers and leaves to
the brown grey mother earth.
Chopin N(18O9)
Polish Composer
Frederic Chopin was a very SEN
sitive child-very susceptible to- the
effects of beautiful music. He was
genius. Even from the first he
amazed his teachers by improvising
the most exquisite melodies on the
piano long before he could write
notes. When he was nine years OF
age he played in public at charity
concert.
Chopin possessed wonderful
power over people. Even as a lad
when his playmates became noisy and
uncomfortable, he would steal to the
piano and begin to play; Immediately
all confusion would be stilled. Some
times he would put out the lights, tel
a story in words, and then express II
on the piano.
Chopin loved nature with his
whole soul, and was especially fond
of the scenery of his own country
The strain Of sadness through SO
many of Choplin's compositions is
because of his deep sorrow over Po-
lands sufferings. The composer had
a keen sense of humor, a great love
of nimicry and a gift for caricature.
Chopin was the poet of the piano.
He not only played beautifully, but
composed much exquisite music for
his loved instruments. Concerts, po-
lonaises, ballads, waltzes and pre-
ludes are his best known compost
tons.
The fact that one third of the COM
positions on the programs of great
pianists are by Chopin testifes to his
popularity as composer.
Funeral (Choplin)
Choplin's Funeral March" is sup
posed to represent the funeral pro-
cession of a dead bride, in this in
stance IMPLYING Choplin's native Po-
land, which he So dearly loved and
whose death as nation he so bitterly
resented.
The march begins with the tolling
of the funeral bells in the distance,
followed by slow tramping of the pro-
cession to the grave, the climax here
the extreme intensity of
the grief of the mourners. A pause
brings us in fancy to the open grave.
Then we hear a tender melody-which
symbolizes the service at the grave.
This melody seems to recall the hap
py youth of the bride and to symbo-
lie the flight of the soul beyond the
fear of death and worldly sorrow
Then suddenly the movement of the
procession begins, gradually dying
away as the mourners depart.

$68. 90 as your share to run the Fed
eral Government, your state, your
county, your municipality, or your
township during 1922? At any rate
the amount figured out by the census
bureau places $4,000 as each persons
share of the 1922 taxes. Of the
amount collected it cost $29.47 per
capita to run the Federal govern
ment. In 1922 the taxes collected by
the Federal Government was $3,204,-
