cts all very well for you to talk
like that-about impressions, feel
ings, visions, and so on, but give me
something real, something tangible!
You have no doubt often heard some
Mr.. Lacksight make some such ex-
clamation.
But are not impressions, feelings
and visions just as real as visible
things?
Listen to any one of those nine
matchless symphonies of Beethoven
Reduced to its lowest terms, what,
from a purely materialistic point of
view, is such symphony? Only a
series of scientifically arranged vi
brations.
But you know that the creations of
Beethoven are more than skillfully
arranged sounds. For out of them
there seems to arise, as I listen, an
intangible something that intrigues
my Imagination and carries me away
into the realm of fancy.
What is this intangible something
that grips my mind and thrills my
spirit? Is it not the expression of
some invisible personality? Does not
the rhythm, melody and harmony
convey to you and arouse in you the
surging of some great human emo
ton?
This spirit of music" is as real to
the mind as is the mechanical vibra-
ton of sound which strikes the ear.
In fact it is more so. The vibration
upon the ear lasts but for a moment,
but the impact of its emotional ex-
preston continues, either to charm
you into restful relaxation or to ex-
cite you into inspired activity.
1 realize the reality of the spirit
of music because l have experienced
its power to influence me. In the
same way have | come to recognize
the reality of the spiritually its
power to influence me.
l know that above the mechanics of
life there abides the spiritual; in
visible and intangible, but none the
less real!

DESTROYED IN JULY

London - The destruction of
424 axis planes during July in
Britain, continental Europe, the
Middle East and at sea was claim
ed by the air ministry which ac-
knowledged loss of 432 by the r.
A. F. in the same month.
The announcement came during
comparative lull in the aerial
warfare over Britain and western
Europe. British fighter planes
last week went on offensive pa
trolls over German-occupied ter
ritory while the Luftwaffe made
a short sharp attack on Norwich,
east coast town, killing a few
persons, Two of the British
planes failed to return.
The R. A. F. shot a German
bomber into the sea during a
series of east and south coast lay
light raids in which bombs were
dropped and a small number of
casualties caused.

Gas, Oil Price
Cut Is Ordered

Washington - President Roose-

householders who heat with oil
to expect severe fuel shortages
this winter, and, meanwhile, OPA
cancelled it's recently ordered in
crease in the price of gasoline
and other petroleum products a.
long the Atlantic seacoard.
OPA ordered a decrease of 21la
cents per gallon for gasoline,
9-10 of cent on kerosene, IL
cents for light heating oils and Is
cents barrel on residual fuel
oils, effective Wednesday.
Increases in those amounts be-
came effective June 20 to reim-
burse oil dealers for the addition
al costs of transporting to the
east oil and oil products former
ly hauled by water. Since then,
the R. F. c. has arranged to abs
sorb the extra transportation
charge.
Mr.. Roosevelt said there could
be no guarantee that the east
erners would receive enough oil
to keep warm, and Secretary 1c-
kes. the petroleum cO-OrdinatOr,
added that some houses with oil
furnaces may be in for heatless
days. -
Urging that oil furnaces be con-
verted to the use Of coal, Ickes
said it might become necessary
to refuse oil deliveries to con-
sumers in the eastern shortage
area who can make such a con-
version and fail to do so.
