not at some time or other
fallen under the subtle spell
f ensemble playing. . Their knowledge
ef muslo serves as the open sesame to
many a hospitable home where the Indi
vidual Is as welcome for himself as for
his ability, ' and many a lifelong friend
ship has been formed through an Invi
tation to be one of a party of friends in
an evening of music for their own en
joyment. Any one who has ever tried it
can attest to the fun of sight reading
parties for two or more Instruments when
the ability of the performers Is about
equal. . And the enjoyment of playing
numbers which all may know, and playing
them In sympathy with one another
snakes for a good feeling and acquaint
ance more than any other bond of social
intercourse one usually meets. Many a
small orchestra has been formed among
friends, i. which has been a sourca of
amusement. Inspiration and pleasure to
its members. Many a romanoe has been
helped along' when one took some muslo
ever to her. bouse, and they played or
sang together. v
. v h $ .
Ensemble playing is a great test of a
player's or singer's ability In more ways
than one,' in sight reading, concentration,
and rythmic feeling. Tt keeps the mind
in an alert and isell lubricated condition,
it 1 broadens one's knowledge pf music
and musical literature, and It contains
genuine ' first hand thrills, meaning by
that, thrills that are the result of one's
own actions rather than of actions by
somebody , else. It also contains first
hand jokes and ludicrous accidents, which
are funnier to the participants than any
thing which they, may hear In vaudeville.
There" Is a fascination about ensemble
playing which . will always entice both
amateur- and professional music makers
into it at every opportunity. It is this
which caused the writer to give up one
evening a week for several years and, in
company 'with three well known piano
teachers of this city, who did the same,
to 'spend this evening In playing cele
brated symphonies, and other orchestral
compositions arranged for eight hands,
two pianos, after which It grew to be
the custom to adjourn to an Ice cream
emporium where a sturdy black-eyed
maiden with ruddy olive cheeks -and
thick black braids (dubbed "Aida"),
served refreshments while we humorously
or seriously discuused different numbers
performed.
The better one knows his art and his
Instrument the funnier are the humorous
occurrences. Accidents are more unex
pected, and thti standing of the player or
singer who suffers one adds another ele
ment to It. The better one knows his
art and his Instrument the more delight
is to be had in the finished production,
and the stranger and more impelling 4s
ho lure of the ensemble.
Perhaps the most finished enierable
players in the world today are the Flon
zaley Quartet,' who have been heard in
Omaha upon several occasions. The free
. dom of interpretation, the style and grace
of their plsylng. the absolute unity of un
derstanding and perfection of attack and
phrasing are the cause of admiration and
astonishment wherever they appear. It
is this ideal of perfect co-operation which
holds all ensemble players In its thrall,
perfect co-operation in rhythm. Interpre
tation and all of those infinitesimal de
tail which make for a finished perform
ance. Miss' Corinne Paulson will soon make
her flrat publlo appearance since her re
turn from Berlin last 6ctober. 6h will
play at the Brandeia theater on Friday
evening, May T, with the ' New York
Symphony orchestra, under the direction
of Mr, Walter Damrosch. Miss Paulson
was making fine progress in Berlin, when
the war broke out and put an end to
much of the artistic endeavor of the Ger
man capital, and after two months of
experience there during war times, she
returned to Omaha, During the winter

practice on the piano, and' awaited a I
proper opportunity to make her pubtle
appearance. Th6 offer from. Director

Frits Krelslcr, the great Austrian vlo.

the Brandeis theater this afternoon at 4

One for endorsement, aa it has already
been sncorded that endorsement by those
who are In the best position to judge.
The Mendelssohn choir of Omaha, feels
great pride, therefore. In Its association
annually with this famoua organisation,
and it haa full realisation of the fact
that this association haa placed Omaha
In a far higher rank musically than It
has ever before occupied, and in a place
whloh even Omaha people do not fully
realise. The Mon,dnlssohn choir of
Omaha Is no longer of local reputation
it la known in all the larger musical
centers of the country.
The Mendelbsohn cbotr of Omaha has
presented to the people here a brilliant
array of the best artiste now before the
great American people, and has the credit
also of presenting people of the best
reputation in Europe. Among the singers
who have appeared are:
Peroeval Allen, the renowned English
soprano.
Florence Hlnkle, the American favorite.

This year the choir will Introduce
Olive Klein, who is said . to be one ef
the very best attractions of the day.

His voice, his art and his personality

choir congratulates Itself on having se
cured one more appearance from him.
Reed Miller also did highly acceptable

the men who made a "hit" In these con

Lovers of good singing of the highest
type will remember the - superb work of

opera of Stockholm. Sweden, who was
the soloist at the first concert of the
Mendelssohn choir.

of the American ladder of mualcal fame.
was another baritone or basso presented
here for the first time by the Mendelssohn
choir, and the artlatto work of Henri
Scott will not soon be forgotten, for a
more acceptable basso has not yet been
heard here, and hla career with the Chi
cago Opera company was one brilliant
series of successes.
Among the bassos, another sterling art
ist was Frederick Weld, who came with
an eastern reputation and left with a
genuine western one.
Thla year the Mendelsohn choir has
been able to secure, after many negotia
tions, the very popular American artist,
Herbert Wltherspoon, One of the best
bassos In the world today, and a man
whose name Is almost universally known.
It will be his first appearance In Omaha.
80 the Mendelssohn choir naturally feela
pride in having Introduced to Omaha all
of these famous people, who in all proba
bility would not otherwise have been
heard hare.

Goodyear Cord Tires
An 11-Year Development
In 5 Ways Excelling the Best Rival Productions
All-
Weather
Tread
For Electrics and Gasoline Cars
Goodyear has made Cord Tires since
1904. Our Cord Tire of today Is an
11-year development It now sets the
high mark in this type.
In the five ways listed below it excels
any other Cord Tire built here or abroad.
Our average oversize is 30 per cent,
compared with rival Cord Tires. That
means nearly one-third more air ca
pacity. And air is what carries the load.
Ours are the only Cord Tires in No-Rim-Cut
type with no hooks on the
base to "freeze" into the rims.
Goodyears are built with from 6 to
10 cord layers, according to size. That
means extreme endurance.
Goodyears alone are held secure by
vulcanizing 126 braided piano wires in
to each tire base.
No other Cord Tire has" an efficient
anti-slip tread. Goodyears have our
regular All-Weather treads tough,
double-thick and resistless.
The Last Word
For 11 years our experts have been
improving these Cord Tires. Scores of
our best men have worked on them.
These are the men who built Fortified
Tires, and who have made Goodyears
the largest-selling tires in the world.
This Cord Tire, which marks their
11-year result, can be wisely considered
the last word in a Cord Tire. It at least
excels all others In those five impor
tant ways.
Why the Cord Tire?
Cord Tires save power and add com
fort Goodyear Cord Tires, used on Elec
trics, add from 25 to 30 per cent to the
mileage from a battery charge. That h so
great a saving that no other pneumatics
can be wisely advised for Electrics. No
unbiased man will advise others.
. Most makers of Electrics supply
Goodyear Cord Tires on request You
who now use other tires should get
them. Any Goodyear dealer-will sup
ply right rims without charge if your
rims do not fit them.
Owners of gasoline cars can also enjoy
these advantages. We make Cord Tires
for gasoline cars In sizes 34x4 and up.
Ask our local branch to tell you where
Goodyear Cord-Tires are obtainable,
Any Goodyear dealer will get them.
