It is now necessary that the church as a\whole evince toler- ation of a kind which will make pos- sible a broader influence than is at) present possible. ' THE REPUBLICAN SPOKESMAN It i becoming evident that in go- ing before the voters of the United States as a candidate for the presi-f dency, Mr. Coolidge will not be able to present himself as the nominee of any single party. As yet Calvin Coolidge has not been able to assert his leadership over Congress; and" this disaster which has overtaken the supposed leader of the Republicans is not due to any unusual wickedness on the part of Congress. For as long a time as anyone can remenher Congress has been anxious to overrids any President who did not first over- ride it. Mr. Coolidge's present position is neither usual, nor extraordinary. Cleveland, Roosevelt and Wilson made the office of the chief executive sup- reme during their periods of service. On the other hand, in recent times, Taft, Harding and Coolidge failed to make their influence felt and con-. tested with Congress to no avail. The first three men were self-made, ris- ing on their own merits; the second three were products of , the Marty. It seems curious that political parties shculd humiliate men whom they have succeeded in installing in office; eveb. more curiously, it seems that. the party will allow men who made them-{ selves to run it. But 'perhaps the man most deserv-j "ng of sympathy for being hard hit. by the recent actions of Congress is he who must act as an organ voice in celebration of Republican harmony Juring the coming elections. The Re- publican keynote speech at the na- tional convention in Cleveland will' have to be a masterpiece of diplo-. macy. a el] ,We tthe top.

It is never no never pronounced with the 'i' as in 'it.' That is so odious to me...." "We though as much" the suave reporter answered taking copious notes., "Splendid splendid" was the portly leader's brief reply. His coat, shoes and socks were off. Time was short. "One thing further. How do you like Ann Arbor?" Paul rubbed his chin thoughfully. "Well, the town isn't so much, but the audience was splendid." "Thank you, sir."

To the many who had become acquainted with the man and his work came the feeling that again a man who was contributing something toward the betterment of humanity had been snat- ched from our midst; and too, there came the sympathy for a family which had lost its leader. Victor Herbert was the true leader! of the popular music writers. It was due to him more than to any one other person that the taste for music of a kind intermediate between the classics and our insipid jazz was placed into the possession of the American peo-' lIe. It was due to him that a host of semi-popular music composers, some of whom have given to posterity. small bits of musical charm, have set themselves to work for something other than a pecuniary return. They have received a certain amount of in- spiration and encouragement in watch- ing the musician Victor Herbert, and the man Victor Herbert. They have seen what could be done, even though one does not measure up to a Beeth- oven or a Mozart, and they have pro- fited. They have attempted the task, and have worked and won. Although the man has departed, he leaves to us many works by which he will be remiembered.. Like all men of attainment, lie is one with whom 'death only brings a change, not an end. Many of his compositions will live for at least several generations, and it is possible that not a few will survive the storm many more. The type of music which he has given to the world is for the most part of a desirable kind; it is of a nature that appeals to both the musically learned and the laity, for it is easily under- . stood and appreciated. Victor Her- bert passes in body only. -( f"A PAUL WIIIThEIAN, a review by Ro- bert Hende'son. -Jazz is a sublimated America; it is America: an evolution of the can-can and Alexander's Rag-Time Band, in-' sinuating, undulating, fast to cyclon- ic, tremendous, and worst of all, out-! rageous. To say that you dislikedj [Paul Whiteman's concert would be [ridiculous, placing you in the light of an embarrassed snob; the vital fact is that it was impossible to re- sist his program with its subtle, com- plicated rythms, its maddening sen- suousness, and its barbaric, sophistic-I ated throb. Jazz, as Paul Whiteman plays it, is not only popular; it re- presents the coming symphony, the in- evitable American music of the future. The first three numbers of the con- cert were examples of the clang-and- brash syncopation of a dozen years ago, the kind of jazz that is still be- ing exlsloited without exception on the Keith vaudeville circuits. As mu- sic they were terrifically noisy and chaotic and horrble, but in the final analysis it is this same mad clatter that brings down the house, setting it yelling and shrieking. The remainder of the program, how- ever, turned to the climax of the ex- periment, and at many points verred into exceptionally beautiful harmon- ies. From such purely popular num- bers as "Limehouse Blues" and "JLn- I ger Awhile" to the adaptations of "Chansonette" and "The Volga Boat Song" there was a consistent skill of technical workmanship. The idea that such jazz is obvious and simple was thoroughly exploded. Whatever you may think of Paul Whiteman's musicians, you must admit that they possess the highest technical skill in scoring and, even to a greater de- gree, in the dominant rhythm of syncopation; as players they are worthy of a symphony orchestra. The final numbers included Victor Herbert's "Suite of Serenades" and George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue." The Victor Herbert piecesI carried the style of the modern Ameri- can orchestra with its predominance of muted brasses, saxophones, and the stacatto banjo to an even more complicated field, now entirely weaned from the necessity of a constant fox- trot tempo for the dance floor. One by one all the conventional effects of the conventional, twisted sounds of a jazz band were introduced with STRAWHA TS AHBANG Prices 2: per cent off right at the top of the season..The tend- ency toward the popularity of he cool and comfortable Pana pia Hat forces us to reduc hi1 -price _of par entire ,do 4& oJo- ; traw, Jfats 25 per ent right at the start of the season.
