hostess smiles weakly and says hesi-
tatingly: II don't think it's very
late" visitor who has any sense at
all will certainly leave in very few
moments. On the other hand, if the
hostess replies in positive tone OF
voice: "Oh don't 60 yet. have lots
of time; l haven't thing to do for
almost an hour" a visitor would
plainly be permitted to stay for
twenty minutes or even little
longer.
The answer to the question OF
how a hostess could courteously tell
a visitor that she had no further
time to give her was. until the
war. "she couldn't" But now that
promptness in every war situation
is so definitely a factor which can't
be set aside, hostess who is due at
hospital or on post frankly looks at
her watch and rises to 60! Or a
visitor, even in the middle of an

only can, but must. break in with:

stay. One whose whole sense of tim
ing is lacking is the visitor who over
stays his welcome, or the speaker
who talks on and on until people
look at their watches and shake
them to see if they can still be going,
or the person who postpones letter
of thanks or sympathy so long that
the warmth has grown chilled.
Among the younger generation,
there is a new awareness of timing.

example. Sir months ago Dhen

stressing the high points of Miss
Pierce's vocalization. Mr. Hahn had
no difficulty in placing in the best
of lights his chief aria, "Ingemisco
Tanquam reus," revealing at the
same time the power of his fresh,
young voice.
Some of the most effective bits
in the Requiem are assigned to the
baritone, usually preceded by fan
fare Of some sort, either disclosing
the sonorities Of the brass section,
the Shrillness of the flutes or the
pulse of the tympani. Theatrical in
effect, the music never fails to lend
color and brilliancy to the score. Mr..
Britton made full use of his oppor-
tunities while Mr.. Galloway brought
out its many strong points with the
aid of the musicians recruited from
the ranks of the National Symphony

Wedel, canon chancellor Of the Ca
thedral, in a short address before
the presentation.
Floral pieces, placed in front of
the altar and on the steps which
separated the audience from the
performers, spoke eloquently of the
obsequies for Dean Phillips held
earlier in the day and of the loss
sustained by the Cathedral Choral
Society of Washington, which had
in DR.. Phillips a friend and an en-
thusiastic sponsor. The solemnity
of the occasion was further enhanced
when, summoned by DR.. Wedel,
thousands bowed their heads in
prayer closely followed by the
strains of the introduction to the
Requiem. softly intoned by the cellos
of the orchestra.
A work of gigantic proportions,
with equal opportunity given to the
chorus and the four soloists-Agnes
Davis, soprano; Pauline Pierce, mez-
zo-soprano; William Hahn, tenor,
and George Britton, baritone-the
Requiem impresses by its uninter-
rupted flow of inspiration and its
extraordinary craftsmanship. How
ever, not less inspired was Paul
Calloway's presentation of the opus,
deserving highest praise. Ostensibly,
the young conductor spared no eff
fort in making a minute study Of the
score and disciplining the large body
of some 200 performers whom he
held firmly in hand. The opening
choruses in Requiem and Hyrie,"
Dies Irae" and those of Rex Ire
mendae Majetatis" and in "Sanctus"
were magnificent. Whenever the
chorus assisted the soloists. its sing
ing was also of high order.
Not less significant was the par
ticipation of the soloistS, we'll
matched as to timbre, their voices
complementing each other in the
many difficult ensembles. arias and
solo passages. Miss Davis scared
high above the chorus and orches-
ira and attracted attention by her
range and the quality of her high
notes. Besides ensemble Miss Pierce
was heard in several lovely duets
with Miss Davis. Some of these
followed important arias for mezzo-
soprano conceived in a lyric mood
