l.uclrn Muratore and Charles Maguennt
of the Chicago Orra company have
been gaining much fame In that city on
account of their remarkable enunciation.
In apeaklg of this with Eric Ielamartr,
the musical editor of the Chicago Tri
bune, Mr. Maguenat refused either to
consider this fact extraordinary or its
explanation an abstruse problem.
"It's the simplest thing in the world,"
said he the other ntxht, "you sing as you
speak, and a if you. were six-aklng to
some one st a distance not loudly, but
painstakingly. There im't any special
trick. The vowels you sustain, and the
ronnonanta give them their character.
That's all. I haven't any recollection of
a particular syatem of enunciation. I
studied under excellent teachers, and
they saw to It that the text and the tone
were equally pure snd clear. I doubt
whether It would be possible to produce
a bad tone, anyway, on a correctly enun
ciated word."
Which remarks, by the way, might
give food for thought to many an aspir
ing singer.

Gossip
About Music
andMusicians
(Continued from Pag Beven)
Factor In Improvsatlon,, by Frederick
Hchlelder. In which he maintain that
improvisation may bo developed by cul
tlvatlon. In speaking of the presence of
a gift In that connection he makes the
following remarks, which are so lucid
and to the point that it might be well
for many who have been told that they
are talented and brilliant in any musical
Hue to take It to heart:
A atft Is not more than a seed. W
know that If acorn a or similar seeds aro
used merely as exhibits of nature they
will remain seeds; but if the essential.
elements of nature are allowed to aql
urn them bv niacins: them In the soil
thew will stow Into mighty trees. It is
within the power of the Creator to bring
tn run bloom a plant or tree in tne course
of a dav. but It la not so ordained. The
plnnt or tree muni work its way from a
iwii to rrraturity according to lis own
nature and environments.
Would It not be wiser to say that all
of our achievements have had their be
ginnings In the activity of desire, and
that we have oome to the full realisation
of them through learning and Industry
