Marian had just started her

george Harris old New York News
brought Marian to Harlem to sing
at Rev. Cullen's Salem church.
l believe they were to pay her
three hundred bucks for the con-
cert. But the chaps were unable
to raise all the dough in front
and offered Marian what they had
and a promise to pay the balance.
Miss Anderson set it out in an
ante-room Of the church waiting
for the contracted sum : : three
hundred dollars. / don't know how
the fellows had in hand, but it
wasn't three hundred.
After a couple of hours when
it was evident that the crowd
would not bring that much at the
door and the young men didn't
have the cash, Marian left the
church and those who had paid
for tickets we're given refunds. 1t
was said that Mr.. Burleigh adj
vised Miss Anderson not to sing
until she got all Of the contracted
money.
One thing was certain was that
Mr.. Burleigh came out of the
church behind Miss Anderson.
But Harry Burleigh's name will
live in music as long as people
sing. His music knew no racial in
fluence, although some of his
strongest and best known compost
tons are protests.

Colonel Madsen began life as a
Danish farm boy, and it was truly
.providential that the Great Builder
placed within his heart the desire to
become an Architect, for young
Harold Madsen from his earliest
recollection nourished a determine

The boys tender years were minus
the guidance of strong fatherly
hand; Madsen's father "a sea captain,
died when his son was only two
months old, then as the little fellow
was basking in the warmth of love
that only a mother can bestow, the
shadow again appeared on the sun

Then from Denmark, the land of
his birth, Harold emigrated to
America and in the city of Chicago

he finished his graduate work and
soon he embarked on a most sue

However, a more consuming de-

Appropriate Ceremonies To Mark Formal
Opening Of Enlarged Museum Nov. Is
Two New Wings, The Gift Of Mrs. VIM H. Singer Jr., Plus
Improved Facilities, VIII Permit Greatly Expanded Program
OF Public Educational And Cultural Service

Ceremonies scheduled at the
Washington County Museum of Fine
Arts on November Is will mark the
beginning of new era for the mu-
scum, for on that date the enlarged
and completely redecorated museum
will be opened to public view.
Following the formal opening, the
new acquisitions to the permanent
art collection of the museum will
be on display for the first time, and
with the addition of the two wings,
plus improved facilities, a great ex-
banded scope of public educational
and cultural service is in prospect
DIR. John Richard Craft, director
of the Museum since 1910, who be-
lieves that a museum should be f1ex-
IDLE and "as many-sided as the pub
lie it is intended to serve,' views the
new galleries as a medium for ex-
tension of the program, with great
ly enlarged horizons. '14
An exponent of the modern view
point in museum theology, Doctor
Craft defines the contemporary mu-
scum as "a complex creation of to-
days society, with many facets. It's
function" he explains, "is to get
across culture, but the museum is
also for enjoyment-the two must
be combined. And mind you do
not spell culture with capital c,
nor Art with a capital A. Both are
natural phenomena of everyday
life They are part of liying-the
part we enjoy, from which we get
satisfaction" Enlarging on his fav-
orite theme, Doctor Craft describes
a museum as a place where you dis
play and interpret things of beauty,
art and historical mementoS of past
civilizations. He further holds that
a museum has an obligation to make
the public conscious of the arts of
all past, as we'll as present civiliza-
tions, through lectures, exhibits, and
the written word, and to contribute
to the knowledge of people with
whom it comes in contact-the cit
liens of the community.
Doctor Craft believes, too, that
development of young artists in the
area served by the institution is an
important responsibility. The annu-
al exhibition of Cumberland Valley
artists, sponsored by the Washing
ton County Museum of Fine Arts,
encourages regional talent in this
community, and has served as the
spring board for many successful
young artists. Mac Fisher, last
years winner, grew up under the
influence of the institution. His first
visit to the Museum, staff members
recall, was as a boy of six, when he
came to the first Saturday morning
story hour
Doctor Craft holds degrees in art
and archaeology, receiving his doc
torate from Johns Hopkins Univer-
sity in Baltimore. He attended An
dover, Yale, University of Paris, the
American School of Classical Stud
les in Athens, and the Art Students
League in New York. Doctor Craft
is a past president of the HagerS-
town Rotary Club.
