English Choir Sings
to Old Hurdy-Gurdy

Barrel organs or hurdy- gurdies were
used In English churches in the early
Eighteenth century to support the
choir. The only elaborate specimen
surviving today, and still In use, II
to be found In the parish church OF
Trottiscliffe, near Wrotham, In Kent
These barrel organs were quite as
popular In rural churches that could
not afford the luxury of an organ a.
were the music boxes of the period In
European drawing rooms. Failing
either an organ or a hurdy-gurdy, vii
lage church choirs usually relied on
two or three-piece orchestras for Sun
day services. These orchestras were
placed in the gallery over the en-
trance.
Trottiscliffe's barrel organ must
have been one Of the finest in its hey
day. for 1t has a repertory Of sixty
hymn tunes. 1t has recently been re-
paired and its handle Is still turned
BY the sexton for Sunday services and
weddings. The tone Of this ancient
instrument Is unusually sweet

The ire Of many q Creole has

leans Creole Is considered the city's
finest product. The women are love
ly. The men are brave. They have
charming manners. They are exclusive.
They are clannish. They have their
own language, their own society. and
their own customs.
The New Orleans Creole speaks q
pure French. The reason Creole" has
been misunderstood Is because their
slaves spoke a Creole dialect, bearing
about the same relation to pure
French az the southern Negro talk
does to English purely spoken. Thep
yvfe was the Acadian French, q

Clerk of Cook County he would still
be holding down a high position with
that firm.
Mr.. Sweitzer is extremely popular
among the large circle Of loyal and
steadfast friends. for he thoroughly
understands how to draw men or
friends to him and not to drive them
away from him. AS an evidence Of
this fact, for years he has been the
head director of the Illinois CONNER
ciai Mems Association and Illinois
Travelling Mems Health Association
and for more than rs years he has
been the chairman of the executive
committee of the Alumni Association
of St. Patrick's Commercial Associa-
ton; he is also prominent member
Of the Illinois Athletic Club, the Iro-
quois Club, Knights of Columbus,
Royal League, Elks, Edgebrook Coun-
try Club and of Knights of St.
Gregory.
In 1904 Mr.. Sweitzer was united in
marriage to Miss Alice Kevil and they
are the proud parents of three chill
dren, two daughters and one son, Rob-
ert NJ, Jr., residing at 2958 w. Jack
son boulevard, in the old 18th ward.
For many years Mr.. Sweitzer has
been a power in the Democratic party
on the West Side and he has assisted
in making and un-making city, county
and state officials; he even assisted in
making Presidents of the United
States, for as one of the delegates to

Wilson. and any OF his henchmen from
walking away with the crown of glory
There is one thing which can be
said to the everlasting credit Of Mr..
Sweitzer and that is that he is abso-
lutely free from race prejudice and in
October, 1914, he made the speech of
his life at the laying of the corner
stone of the new Eighth Regiment
Armory, where he freely mingled with
the colored people. Shortly after that
event he presented Col. Franklin A.
Denison with fine and very expen-
sive mahogany writing desk which will
remain in the rooms of the Eighth
Regiment Armory for many years to
come.
Mr.. Sweitzer always deports him
self like unto first water or high
class gentleman; he is plain and demo-
cratic in his ways, and the doors lead
ing into his main Office always stand
wide open during business hours so
that the rich and the poor, the white
and the colored, the high and the low
can walk right in and see him and
make themselves at home. He always
carries on his conversations with
his hundreds of callers each day in
easy measured tones and whenever we
happen to drop into his Office he al
ways mildly exclaims: "howdy do
Brother Taylor, am glad to see you'll"
Mr.. Sweitzer firmly believes in the
"Fatherhood of God" and the
brotherhood of Mankind"

Typewriting to Music

In a certain college In London,
England, girls learn typewriting to
the accompaniment Of fox trots and
military marches. II a girl has q
good sense of rhythm, this system
hastens the early stages of training
In a remarkable way. Gramophone
records are used, and pupils first type
words Of three letters to a military
march In fOur-four time, one letter
to a beat and the space movement to
the fourth. Progress Is then made In
words of different lengths, until final
~ whole sentences are typed. When
speed increases, students type two
letters to each beat. The idea behind
this system is that regular rhythmic
movements are less firing than irreg-
ular ones, which waste the workers
energy.
