Musical Score
Written in 1850
Found on COUer
Easter Chant Discovered
on Binding of Shakes
peare Edition.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, March ia
musical score dating back to the year
1850, has been discovered by NJ. l..
Stout of Short Hills, y. j.. a. senior al
Harvard The score is said to be
valuable addition to the available
store of early musical records.
While doing research work in the
Widner Library at Harvard. Stout
noticed odd markings on the vellum
cover of an original edition of, Eliza
bethean plays. Closer scrutiny dis
closed a crude score with Latin words
and Stout obtained permission to have
the cover removed and examined by
experts.
The music is for a chant sung in
connection with the Easter mass in
the Catholic church. 1t is written on
staff of four lines instead of FIVE, as
in modern music, and there is no div
iSion into bars or attempt to set the
time. Dots are used to indicate the
notes. The chant is similar to the
plain song still used in the Catholic
church.

BOOM IN PALESTINE
|MPRESSES VISITOR
Industry and Farming Rapid
Iy Expanding, Says Sir
Alfred Mond in London.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, March ia glowing
story of prosperity in Palestine is
given to the Press by Sir Alfred Mond,
who has just returned from a tour OF
the Holy Land. The Developments
since he was last there, in 1921, have
been so rapid that it is difficult TO
convey a picture of it to other people,
he saws Agriculture and industry
equally have progressed, and there is
no unemployment, but, on the con-
trary, a shortage of labor.
Sir Alfred. himself Jew, enthuses
especially over the rapid growth of
the town of Tel-a-Viv, near Jaffa.
which he describes as an astonishing
and romantic example of Hebrew en-
terprise The site in 1909 was a
stretch of barren seashore land, which
now is covered by a city of @0,0ot
people.
Many Factories Opened.
There are 3S factories, all of which
derive their power from either cleo
tricity or oil. Thus there is not a
single smoke-beIching chimney, but
IAN ideal city, building wealth under
sunlit skies and a pure atmosphere
The settlement was started by Jews
from Jaffa, and its rapid growth has
attracted enterprising Hebrews from
other countries, whose silk weaving,
tanning. shoemaking and furniture fac
tories now are in full swing.
Haifa is another prosperous center.
where a great harbor, capable of ac-
commodating the whole British Med
iterranean fleet lis being built. This
city also is becoming the seat of i'm
portant industries.
The agricultural development of Pal
cStine is keeping pace with the indus
trial. according to Sir Alfred largely
owing to the enterprise of Jewish i'm
migrants from Rumanla and Bulgaria.
Garden cities are springing up around
Jerusalem and costly houses are being
erected.
Hostility Exaggerated.
Sir Alfred asserts that the hostility
of the Arabs to the Jewish development
has been much exaggerated in reports
published in England, as the economic
bond is stronger than the political ami
mostly
Concurrently with Sir Alfreds state
ment, the Daily Express today prints
q fresh report of an energetic hostile
movement by Moslems and Arab
Christians against the proposed visit
of the Earl of Balfour. VINO as British
foreign secretary issued the famous dec
laration giving British support to the
establishment of the Jewish homeland
