NATIONAL CAPITAL CHOIR
SINGS "HYMN OF PRAISE"
First Rendition of this Melody
Heard by Large Audience
Last Night.
BY ALICE EVERSMAN.

MendelSshonS Hymn of Praise" was
given last evening by the National Cap
ital Choir at the Universalist National
Memorial Church. under the direction of
and accompanied by Albert w. Harmed
The soloistS were Irene Koehl, soprano:
Rebecca Torreson. mezzo and Howard
Ludwig, tenor.
A large audience filled the church and
listened with reverend attention to what
was perhaps the first rendition of this
work in this city. The Hymn of
Praise" written to be sung as part of the
fourth centennial celebration of the in
vention of printing carries a note OF
gladness and is so constructed that the
paen of praise mounts up to a triumphal
climax. The solos are divided between
soprano, mezzo and tenor. each aug
mented by chorus reiteration of their
expounded theme. The words we're
chosen by Mendelssohn himself and are
poetical and sublime in sentiment The
tenor solo, will the Night Soon Pass?"
is said to have been inspired by a sleep
less night during which Mendelssohn
often asked himself this question. The
next morning he wrote it into his can
tata and made one of the most effective
numbers in the work.
The choir sang with full resonant tone
the opening chorus, "All Men. All
Things, Sing to the Lord" and the
finale. Praise Him All Ye People, Hal
lelujah," climaxing the individual solos
with short ensembles. The clear,
high voice of Irene Koehl was particu-
larly appropriate in the solo. Praise
Thou the Lord, Q My Spirit" and in
the duet with the tenor after the inter-
mission. The. greater part of the solo
numbers were for the tenor and Howard
Ludwig handled them with careful re-
gard for the beauty of the text. Re-
becca Torreson was heard in unison with
The soprano in the duet with the So
prano. Il Waited for the Lord"
Before the cantsta began DR.. Harmed
gave an organ "Sinfonia," which fitted
in well with the mood of the cantata
The program finished with hymn of
Martin Luther and with a recessional
from THE Ninth Symphony" Of
Beethoven.

his friends are those who are fond OF

here it opened, as they say. fairly
"cold." The author, the stars, the pro-
ducers, were still fumbling in their
minds for new lines and new situations,
and even the vapid Darnley was not at
all sure where he was to stand or to sit:
So that we are quite certain that II
these cold-shoulder SCOtlanditeS should

would find it much more to their llk-

bear with a play when 1t is in ITS IN
fancy. No play ever sprang full bloom
into the world Clifford Brooke likes
to recall. for instance, j. M. Barrie at
a rehearsal of one of his plays sitting
In the orchestra and changing line after
line as the rehearsal progressed. He
was likely to change a syllable at the
'laSt gasp" says MIR. Brooke.
So with Mary. 1t was not fair to
fudge it too harShly when 1t was here.
Although to our way of thinking it was
even then brilliantly Worded play, full
of the majesty of power and glory and
the kind Of thing that our stage needs
more of to have our neighborS recog-

Chunky New EngIander Fight4
Heady Battle, Changing
Attack Periodically

New York, Aug. 10-(P}-Larrupin
Lou Brouillard, the French Canadian
fighter from Worcester, Mass, has
laid claim to a share of the niddle>
weight title recognition in a most de-
cisive fashion and at the same time
put in bid for place on the list Of
famous left handed battlers.
Brouillard stripped Ben Jeby of his
recognition by the New York state
athletic commission as middleWeight
champion, by knocking him out in tho
seventh round of scheduled l5~
round bout at the Polo Grounds We'd
nesday night.
The chunky New Highlander fought
a cool, l1eady battle, ripping in only
when he could make his blows hurt,
and finally laid his opponent low with
one terrific left-hand wallop in the
seventh.
The first six rounds all led UP in an
orderly sequence to the decisiva
seventh. Jeby only had a look-in
twice. He fought on even terms I'M
the second and again in the slow
fifth.
" Taking advantage OF Jeby's bewild~
erment at his annoying southpaw
style. Brouillard shot in body punches
until the East Sider's guard came
down, then worked on his chin until
1t moved up again.
In the seventh Rrouillard made an
opening with a body smash and as
Jebys guard dropped. whaled away
With long sweeping left to the chin
That put Jeby down and out in 2:21.
