A varied choral program will be given to be announced later.

"The Spirit of Temperance" has FRENCH MUSICIANS AMAU AGAIN See No Reason or Condemning German Composer on Account of War. French musicians and composer! have again taken up the old subject of Wagner, whose works they deslr? to aee presented at the opera. Charlei Pons, musical editor of L'Eclalr, makei the point that a study of Wagner'i scores is absolutely necessary for the development of musical talenl In France and that, with this aim j It would be Just as well to forr?< that Wagner was German. In anj case, remarked M. Pons. Wagner hai been dead for thirty years and therefore he cannot be held responsible foi i crimes committed during the *rar ! "Let s condemn," says M. Poni ' "this ostracism of a repertoire so rlct i and of such value for musical educa: tlon as that of Wagner. Can we not ! present and admire the grandeur apt | magnificence of Richard Wagneri I work with the same enthusiasm as th< Germans have demonstrated for th< i Immortal gei\lus of our composers ' Berlioz and Cesar Franck. ! M. Pons obtained the views of sev eral French composers on the subject They all are In favor of the represen I tatlon of the works of the great Ger man composer. Sylvlo I.azzarl, authoi of Sauteriot and lift I.?eprouse, whlcl won instant success last season writes: , "Of course I am In favor of present Ing Wagner's works, but- not on th< concert platform, because while Wag ner Is the greatest of all dramatli musicians, he Is not symphonic. Henri Rabaud, author of Marouf. re plied laconically: "I caift sea th' slightest objection to Wagneri works." . , Georges Hue. author of Miracle an< Tltanla, while insisting that the pre ponderatlng place must be reserve for French composers, declares tna "It would be a great mistake to de prlve French music lovers of th< works of Richard Wagner, which w among the finest ever written." Paul Vidal, professor of coropo?itioi at the Conservatoire, writes: "Wagner's work* must no longe remain hidden Of course, Frencl works must not be sacrificed to an: other, but I ardently hope to see th German composer's works presente< j at the opera." CLAIMS GOOIl ROADS ' ' MEAN BETTER MUSK Good roads psve the way for bette music, according to a Florida musi dealer. "Oood roads engender communlt spirit, and stimulate musical gather Ings,' he said. "When the member of one community are Interested I music, this Interest. If there Is cor stant Intercourse, soon spreads t other communities. Oood roads mak community ties stronger, and the make the value and Joy of music mor far.reaching. Consequently. In com munlties where there are good roadi the country house Is seldom with out a piano, and weekly muslcale and community sings are an estat r llshed custom." % JSIC ashington t Requiem Barleycorn HkB. shington have been invited to ional event to be held here in )me* as part q? a program ar ternational Congress Against a Washington by an historical of Temperance." *been written by lira.
