Mozart, Dead
$50 Years., to
BeHOnOred
His Music Fills
Heart Longings in
War.TOrn World
BY Alice Eversman.

This week will see the observance
of the 150th anniversary of Mozart's
death, the exact date of which was
December S, 1871. Already this year
special programs have honored the
memory of the great master whose
vast musical output of various kinds
has brought constant pleasure to
listeners all these many years. The
cult Of Mozart grows with the pass
ing of time and Is particularly sig
nificant in the present era, when
the trend of life is so far away from
the contentment and Joy in simple
things which is the earmark Of his
music.
The honoring of great musician
for what he had contributed to
music development should not be
apart from honoring the man him.
self. Character and the virtues are
of as much worth as the creation
of great works, for it is strength of
nature that guides and colors Gre
ative impulses. .
Courage Stands Out.
In the retrospect view that we
now have Of Mozart's life, his cour-
age stands out forcefully. 1t was
not of a spectacular kind and to
some may seem negligible, but it
was courage nonetheless. No great
deeds Of heroism, no tremendous
sacrifices are on the record Of Mo-
zart'S life. He apparently took the
good and the bad that came to him
with the same easy acceptance. Yet
his courage is to be found in his
persistence in being happy and of
Incorporating that happiness in his
music. Few of his works carry
shadow of encouragement or sad
ness. yet he had plenty of cause to
be wretched and to bewail his plight
in his music.
He knew the extremes of affluence
and of poverty but while he longed
for and sought. in his way, finan-
cial security, he had no envy of
the rich and the great. From the
meager means at his command.
toward the end of his life, he man
aged TO have great deal of pleas
ure. always of the simplest kind.
A day in the country with his wife,
Constance, few friends in his
home making music or dancing. a
small gift to Constance or playing
with some of his pets. were suff-
cient to keep alive that bubbling
happiness, the extraordinary in
genuity and fancy that is to be
found IN his music. Who but a
greatly gifted one could leave the
bedside of his sick wife and through
the night of worry. pen some of the
loveliest and brightest music of his
career.
Whatever the occasion, whether
commissioned by some of the great
Of the land, or writing for the pure
joy or for the money needed for the
days living, the perfection of his
style never faltered nor was the
flow Of his inspiration forced. All
that he wrote bears the stamp of
immortality because he had the
power to rise above the tribulations
and disappointments of his life and
concentrate on a search for beauty.

The ancient art of Peru is faith

an exhibition of water colors by
distinguished Peruvian archaeolo-
gist. DR.. Constantine Malinovsky.
which opened in the Pan-American
Union recently and will continue
until Friday.
The subjects set forth are all rep
resentative of the Pref Columbian art
of Peru and were found IN the
National Archaeological Museum OF
Lima and in the rich private col
lection in the Museum of Rafael
LARGO Herrera, near the city Of
Trujillo.
This is an art little known and
about which but a small amount OF
information either written or illus
trative has heretofore been available.
It was DR.. Malinovsky's purpose,
therefore, to make his illustrations
as exact and real as possible, that
they might speak for themselves
and afford students opportunity for
what may be regarded as the equiva-
lent of first-hand study. The objects
he has pictured in his 200 paintings
are rendered with the utmost ac-
curacy. clean-cut and against white
paper backgrounds. They are done

old Russian method which, it Is
said, gives wider color range and
absolute durability.

AIRTEMP MEN
WANT RAISE

The negotiating committee at
Chrysler Airtemp met with the
management on Tuesday, May q,
and served notice as to the wage
increases that the employees ex-
pect in the near future.
, The advancements of the in
dustry and the sharp raises in the
cost of living, make an increase
of Ten Cents an hour hnperitive.
The Union also asks that the
night workers be given an adj
ditional ten per cent pay advance
ment.
The chairman of the committee,
Robert D. Gallegan, is ably assist
ed by Allie Richards, Harold
Mahan and Eli Pitts.
This committee has the support
of an active and militant member
ship and are confident that nan
agement will grant the same i'm
provements in working and living
conditions that other great in
dustries have shown of recent
date. New workers in the plant
are being signed up as fast as
they are hired. The entire group
of workers are determined that
they too shall share in the enor-
nous profits that are now being
earned in the great manufacturing
center of Dayton.

MASTER EVENTS

to keep up the good work, they
will.
President Ernest Black reports
that Jul new hall will be ready as
soon as the workmen are finished
with it.. We have everything that
we need now and will be ready
for some meetings of individual
departments soon. \
What's the matter with the rest
of the girls in the winding de-
partment? Why won't they join
the Union? Whatever it is let's
try to get it ironed out as soon as
possible. We believe that most of
the girls would join if the right
person would talk to them.
Robert Hartzell of Assembly and
Charles Kimble of Shipping say
that there are some tough eggs
in their departments, but that the
sky seems to be clearing. Keep up
the good work, Boys.
Bill Schrader, of Tool and Die
Repair, says his department is in
fine shape; and from the way Bill
has been working we think he
will keep it that way.
The rumblings of discomfort
i'm Machine No. l are getting
louder and louder. 1t seems
that the efficiency i'm this par
ticular department has hit bot
torn and is determined to stay
there. Maybe if the men i'm this
department would get together
and stay that way, they would
get results. They could take a
lesson in unity from the Punch
press department, ii seems.
The Stewards ledgers have been
ordered and should be on hand at
the next meeting. We are sure
that the Stewards will be glad to
hear this. They have had a pretty
tough time trying to keep their
men and dues in good order.
There will be more news next
time and we hope most of it will
be good. If anything new and in
t~eresting turns up be sure to turn
it in for the paper. Be seeing you
all at the next meeting.

The Union at Master is gaining
momentum right along. Griev-
ances are being handled in nice
style and the Stewards report that
some of them never even have to
be taken past the foreman. This
seems to point to the fact that
most of the foremen are willing
to cooperate even though there
are still a few who would rather
not.
Robert Florence and George
Froehle are doing excellent jobs
in their respective departments.
George says that some of the men,
after seeing what the Union is
doing for men in his department,
are asking him for application
cards. Keep up the good work,
George and Bob.
Fred Graef, of the core room
and Hal Macintosh of the feun-
dry r also making wonderful
progress. Fred says that his core
room is 100 per cent Union and
he intends to keep it that way.
Hal says he isn't 100 per cent yet
but he is working to that end
fast. And we know, Hal, it won't
be long now.
George Jackson and Herbert
Holtgreven, both of Machine No. 2
are working hand in hand and
have done a fine job of organiza-
ton in that department. They
have practically a 100 per cent
paid up membership and their
dues come in the same way.
Why don't some of you tool
makers help "Vince" talk to
these men. They might look at
the Union in a different light
if some of their friends talked
to them about it. Come on men,
a little bit of help here might
help a lot somewhere else. Let's
try it anyway.
No need to say anything about
the Punch Press department. Ev-
eryone knows that they are 100
per cent and they intend to stay
that way. No need to tell them
