A gent who has been in re-
pose for 1900 years excites little
sympathy If what bones of him
are left take a rebellious turn
now and anon. Ctesibius, who
can be called Sib for short, has
spun himself more than one
revolution since he was swathed
i'm his shrOud and laid to rest
with a platter of dressed meats.
His tnrnings are justified, too,
for an instrument he dedicated
to the higher art has become
something of conscienceless
strumpet alongside the lutte, the
harp and the violas.
Organs for the movie hippo
dronnes and the higher-salaried
folk who can afford them IN the

eiderably farther in their task
of sublimating reality to the
spell Of beautiful chords. In
deed they do. They go so far
as to bring you back to reality.
Thus, alongside a keyboard that
can espouse Beethoven's Ninth
Symphony, you find a me-
chanism that also initiates
