Requiem Sung
AtCathedral by
Choral Society
Large Audience
Hears Famous
Work by Brahms
By ALICE EvERsMAN.

The Washington Choral Society
Louis Potter, conductor, honored the
dead OF this war on All Souls Day
with q performance of Brahms RE
QUEEN at the Washington Cathe-
dral last night. The society was
assisted by an audience that taxed
the capacity Of the Cathedral and
listened In reverent silence to pre-
sentation that moved smoothly with
the familiarity that three previous
performances gave the group.
Although the personnel of the
Choral Society has undergone
changes due to the circumstances
Of the times, the 100 singers of the
chorus gave little evidence of not
working together over period of
months, many OF the newcomers
being experienced In oratorio sing

The significance of Brahms Re
QUEEN" stands out amid the world
trouble of today with special clarity.
It's great gentleness and profound
faith are revivifying in their reac-
ton to the loss of friend and mother
which stirred the composer to write
this human and at the same time
exalted work. The grief that is ex-
pressed in such sublime manner is
neither rebellious or dramatic, but
softened and beautified by the firm
religious convictions of the COM
poser.
AS a piece of musical writing 1t
reveals the great genius of its au-
thor. the sureness of his estimate of
effect and his marvellous feeling for
contrast. The divisions of the choral
group play one against the other for
sombre or exalted expression. This
innate consciousness of the drama
Of human reactions retains SIM
plicity that is all the more powerful
in its effect while the introduction
of the solo voices and the weaving
around them of telling choral pass
ages touches every string of human
sorrow. The folk lore character of
some of the writing, especially in
the orchestral interludes, accent the
simplicity which is the keynote of
this impressive work notwithstand-
ing the great climaxes that under
score the composers unshakable
faith.
The chorus achieved variety of
coloring in its pliable standings, the
voices blending with warmth and
fullness Miss Harris high, sweet
timber was unusually expressive in
the beautiful solo, I'VE Now Are
Sorrowful," and she sang the diff
cult music with ease and beauty of
tone and sentiment. Corpl. Maun
gained in dramatic fervor in his two
solos. Lord Make Me to Know and
Here on Earth the second in par
ticular showing the power and
resonance of his voice
Mr.. Potter's conducting was posi-
tive and inspirational, with finely
developed effects in both chorus and
orchestra. The next performance by
the Choral Society will be on De-
cember Is when Mendelssohn's

N/HALE-SHIPS mixed themselves in other
w things than whaling. Exploring, fighting,
W blockading and Shaving were only some
of the trades that whalers turned their hands to-
Some of them got into blacker business Yes,
back in the end of the eighteenth century they
carried convicts from England to the Australias
You see, it was found that more whales spouted
along the Australian coasts than had ever been
seen in the regular whaling grounds So the
American blubber hunters were soon cruising
about those waters.
About that time the English had been sending
their convicts to the Americas as indentured SER
wants and such. But when the American War of
Independence came to a close they had to find
some other place to unload their undesirables.
Botany Bay and Norfolk Island, parts of New
Zealand and Australia were chosen. And since
many whaling shippers knew those waters they
could make good money carrying convicts at so
much head. Dirty business, you'll say Perhaps
so, but I'll spin yarn of whalers who rescued con-
vcts from those lands and that'll make it square.
Now before 1872, England was hanging men in
the public streets for as little as sharing rabbits
on private land choppng the squires trees for fire.

difference between them and others who made
up the gangs.
Some stations used gags, brides and head
stalls on the prisoners. At Norfolk Island they
used an instrument called Stretcher.

These were blue and green devils over an inch and

ants got at him, but the more he wrggled the more
they bit.
Next morning all that was left was his head
