Music From the Netherlands

Washington is accustomed to thinking
of the Netherlands as source of great
music. It was from Rotterdam that Hans
Kinder came to organize our National
Symphony Orchestra in 1881, and his work
Is not forgotten. Indeed, there are certain
to be many persons who will think of him
when they go to hear the Concertgebouw
Orchestra of Amsterdam at Constitution
Hall on Tuesday evening. The local
appearance of this outstanding ensemble
of instrumental artists is sponsored by the
Washington Chapter of the Netherlands
America Foundation, founded by the late
Edward w. Box In 1922 to promote good
relations between the two countries. Pro-
ceeds from the box office sale are to go
toward financing the college and university
careers OF Dutch scholars studying on our
side Of the Atlantic.

express our gratitude to your newspaper
for the fairness and irnpartiality which
you displayed in reporting the recent

Spires of the Spirit
| roubIe and You

Into each life some rain must falls
Is very mild way Of suggesting somber
curtains that sooner or later spoil the
lovelineSS of blue days and fair. The
sorrows that change dancing eyes into
tear-drenched windows have little SEM
blance to the playful patter of gentle
rain on the ground. They come grim
and full of dread, sometimes with the
rush and roar of a tornado. uprooting
and destroying life is never the
same again. Often there is no time for
warning storm signals to tell Of the evil
which may strike. It may be that sud-
denly our trusted protective barricades
fail and the pitiless enemies Of happi-
ness break through the defenses, and
our world caves in. Then, into what
once seemed quiet haven Of safety
there streams disappointment bereave-
ment. Illustration, betrayal, as swift,
desolating calamities crash their way
through our cherished hopes and
dreams. Then there are other assaults
which are slow and sudden, but which
steadily gnaw their way through until
they take the very heart out Of life.
When the fairest things in the care,
fully tended garden of the years are
action is not to stand chin up reciting
ones creed, II believe in God the
Father" Rather, upon the lips is likely
to be the age-long question: Why?
Childhood, very early, is fascinated by
question marks: why. mother, why?
Why were those blackbirds baked in
the pie? Why did the COW Jump over
the moon?" Through song and sorrow
the why persists. And, facing bitter
losses, that why usually has fight in it,
and rebellion and incredulity that such
things could have come to pass-things
that question the nationality Of the
world that God is supposed to rule.
The terrible task of squaring the
dark, tragic happenings in life with
ones daring fair-weather faith in a
loving and all-powerful God Is the
supreme test. OF course, when poignant
pain and loss arrive with their ruthless
wrecking crew one never must be OBJ
livious to the beliefs of unbelief. II,
indeed, there is no meaning. no great
spiritual reality back Of the visible--if
there is nothing but dead, driving
universe-then what explains what we
call self-sacrifice and reverence, no
bility, heroism and conviction of the
right that will cause men to be
stretched on crosses of agony? There
is no easy escape in unbelief.
Now, the one fundamental thing to
remember when any dark experience
breaks up our ordered and tranquil
world is that nothing is gained by loud
demands for an explanation. DO not
fight problem" is favorite bit OF
sane philosophy practiced by one OF
the greatest contemporary Americans.

The world lost fine musician when ].
Rosamond Johnson died at 81. In association
with his brother, James Weldon Johnson,
poet, novelist and diplomatic officer, killed
in traffic accident in 1888, he worked a
revolution in the art of melody. They were
partners with the famous vaudevillian, Bob
Cole, more than half century ago and
wrote their own songs and dance tunes for
audiences that added up to millions. Later,
they devoted their talents to numbers" Tor
such other artists as Anna Held, Lillian RUS
sell, Marie Cahill, Bert Williams and George
Primrose. Some of their productions were
big successes The list of their hits IN
cluded: Under the Bamboo Tree NO
body's Looking but the Owl and the Moon"
my Castle on the Nile" and Tell Me, Dusky
Maiden"
But the Johnson boys were capable OF
much greater music than any OF these
admittedly popular" achievements They
rediscovered the spirituals and made them
acceptable as legitimate art. James wrote
the fictional Autobiography Of an Ex-
Colored Mantle first really impressive
book OF its kind to be published and the
libretto for the opera "Goyescas" as well
as many beautiful short poems and essays
Rosamond independently had theatrical
career in ''Porgy and Bess," "Mamba's
Daughters" "Cabin In the Sky" and the
'Little Shows and "Blackbirds." He also
founded the Music School Settlement for
Colored People In Harlem, was an arranger
and editor for several music publishers, lee
tured on music In many colleges and uni
versities and contributed articles on musical
subjects to many periodicals. His whole life
was service to harmonic expression.

from the quiet retreat of retirement,
looking back on it all he says to those
fronting nfe's vicissitudes, do not
fight q problem" The implications Of
that advice have pertinent bearing
on ones attitude to all life's frustrating
experiences. Problems are never solved
by indignation as to why they are
there-not by fighting them, but by
facing them. Even the cry from the
cross, "My God, why?" was not an
swered with solution. 1t was resolved
by commitment into the loving hands
Of the Father who stood behind the
shadows and in them. That is vivid
revelation for all time that what men
and women need most in the hour of
dire distress is not an answer. but a
power to carry them through: not the
ability to transform situation. but to
transcend it. The decisive test Is not
why this has happened but, seeing 1t
has happened, how can face it?
Job on his bed of ashes, his family
and property swept away. his body
racked with pain. was not helped by
any of the theological theories Of his
friends. The thing that finally lifted
him out of the slough Of deSpond was
the realization that his faith was bigger
than his troubles. His solution lay in
ceasing to fight, in refusing to spend
his time and strength trying to fit dark.
tragic things into the pattern Of the
divine Love. His final victory was in
making his faith. rather than his fears,
the master of his fate, as he declared:
Though he slay me, yet will I trust
him"
But Job lived long time ago, in a
very different world. Well, Katherine
Mansfield lived in our own world and
was a modern in her conceptions and
appraisals. AS there ebbed out her
little day she wrote: II do not want
