strength and influence, whether the
recipient wills it or not.
One of the advantages of great
music is that it requires time for COM
plete assimilation. It does not surfeit
in a short while nor allow for bore
dom. There is always something new
to discover in it, and it seems to have
a way of leading the listener along in
progressive fashion, so that without
his own volition he gathers impress
sions, adding one interesting fact To
another, until, suddenly, the whole
work is comprehensive. That is the
miracle of music.
But If one refuses to cooperate. If
one insists that he can listen to music
only under certain conditions and at
certain intervals. then one can never
hope to widen his sense of appreci-
alton. The most cultured student OF
music can form genuine opinion
of the value of work only after sew
eral hearings. How could one less
learned decide. after one experience
whether he liked a composition Or
not. A repetition might reveal a
beauty he had overlooked the first
time.
THE objective of music is not simply
entertainment, even in the Sum-
mertime. For such an end there are
countless opportunities to get music
appropriate for passing an idle hour
Orchestral concerts are not intended

Of last Summers audiences who, for
the first time, could enjoy the mas
terpieces in the open air, testified to
the fact that many gained greater
liking for and appreciation of the kind
of music that is most worth while.
The object of including music in
community life is to give the people
something that will develop them in
the finer sides of their natures, for
which a musical diet of waltzes and
other gay, pleasing works is not
adequate.
People who refused to know any
thing about world events or national
politics or the main features of the
sports world would be condemned Sc
verely by the average intellectual citi-
zen for their willful blindness. yet 1t
is never considered shameful when a
person announces (usually with pride)
that he doesn't understand music.
There must be something wrong
somewhere, for it is generally known
that individuals really wanting in
all liking for music are extremely
rare. We can. therefore, only suppose
that those who claim no interest in
music are denying, with bravado, the
expression of their better self. The
only excuse for such an assertion is
when, after a fair trial has been
made, a trial not limited to two or
three concert goings. the individual
can truthfully say, Il have sincerely
tried to understand music and I can
honestly make nothing out of It,"
Even so, such a decision has nothing
to do with the season of the year.

Music Featured at Camp.

MUSIC FedtureQ at lamp
FOR several Summers Kamp Kah-
lert. the Y. w. c. A. camp at
Sudley, Md, on West River, has had
on its staff a councillor whose special
responsibility has been music in con-
nection with the program Of the
camp.
Alice Gallup. graduate of the
School Of Fine Arts of the University
Of Kansas and teacher of music
in the public schools of Kansas City,
Mo, filled this place for three years
and created very definite standards
of musical appreciation and accom-
plishment. Helen Middleton, a men,
ber of the Girl Reserve staff Of the
Washington Y. w. c. A., was coun-
cilor for one year, and this present
Summer Florence Materse of Cleve-
land. Ohio, is music councillor. Miss
Materse is graduate of Oberlin
College and will go to the Cleveland
Y. w. c. A. in the Fall. where she
will have part-time responsibility for
music in their program there.
Many interesting projects and ideas
have been followed through these past
years Many opportunities are found
and created for the singing together
of folk songs and songs belonging to
the camp. In addition to the general
singing Of the camp, many other mu-
sical ventures have captured the in
terest OF the girls. One year har-
monicas were to be heard any place
and any time at Kamp Kahlert. This
year an increasing number of girls
are interested in learning to make
and play shepherds pipes. The group
even hopes to become a Pipers Guild
such as originated in England.
Through all of the program there
is constant effort to help the girls
love the best in music; to appreciate
the folk songs of many people, and
as. result to appreciate the people
who have given them to us. and to
give all of the campers unlimited
opportunity to participate in musical
activities, so that music may become
a real part of living.
