REES HE NEBRASKA STATE music teachers' second an nual convention has come and gone, and if the local and visiting teachers who attended received half as much insipration from it as did the writer, they feel more than repaid for,' their time and interest. The Omaha music teachers had little conception pf what this convention would be and the Omaha music lovers had even less, or undoubtedly there would have been a far larger associate membership and attendance at every one of the sessions. The getting to gether and hearing what the workers in other parts of the state are doing, the encouragement of composition, the round-table conferences in the. dinerent departments ot musical study, the papers on different subjects of musical interest, most of them writ ten by specialists in these subjects, the reports of committees for the bet terment of musical standards, and dis cussions of ways and means of doing so, the personal contact of the leaders and workers of the different com munities all have their influence in broadening the understanding of the problems which confront the develop ment of music in the state asd solving means of overcoming them, and give an. added impulse to the desire of doing so. . . $ The professional musician, who has only specialized in his chosen line, soqner or later feels the need of a broader education. Now that pur state university has adopted music into its curriculum, allowing credit for study in this branch, just as in other educa tional lines, the opportunity ft? offered to the. music student for the general culture of a university course and of specializing in his chosen work at the same time. The co-operation of such an , organization as the State Music Teachers' association can be of great value in bringing this department to the fullest realization of its ideals. During the sessions of the conven tion there were many outstanding fea tures. One of the most important papers was the report of the commit tee on piano music by Lura Schuler Smith, leadine ur to the entrance re quirements of the university. This was adopted after a round-table discussion upon piano teaching in general, which brought about an understanding of common problems and ideals that could never have.been achieved in any other wav and which paved the way for even more interesting meetings of the same sort In fact, the value of the. round tables was made so mani fest that at future meetings more time and more- definite arrangements will btC;,g,iven to them. 'Among the visitors besides Mr. Fry nincrer an d Mr. Silber. who appeared in individual recitals, the ; figure of Prof. Carl "Beutel of the Wesleyan conservatory tands Out prominently. Prof. Beutel, in jus' paper upon -me Problems "of Child Education," broueh t out clearly and concisely many of the main difficulties with which the teacher has to cope. ."The importance of class work in connection with musical training, and the immense value of making the pupils understand and recognize the different chords of music, and thus construct their train ing upon a genuine foundation of ap preciation were only two of the many interesting points wtucn ne presented. As a composer Mr. Beutel also won much admiration by both his songs and the consistency and musicianly quality of his piano compositions. As a pianist he wis delightful, his play. ing.bein& marked by an artistic under standing and attention to detail and cleanness of., technic that: brought most gratifying results. Mrs. Gutz mef, who sang his songs, interpreted them most musically. . The paper by Prof, .Singer of the University of Nebraska on the "Aims of Music Study in the University" was splendidly written and gave a clear idea of the work expected from music students, both before they enter the music courses of the university, and after they are enrolled there, and of the ideals of achievement. Another interesting -paper from another point of view was by n. u. rerguson on "School Singing and the Unmusical Child." Mr. Ferguson is supervisor of music m the Lincoln public schools His oaoer showed the srreat im portance of the public school music in supplementing the work of the pri vate music teacher, and in developing musical taste in all school children. It also contained many interesting ideas for overcoming faults in public school singing and presented an abso lutely different phase of musical edu cation from any of the others dis cussed. Mr. Carl Steckelberg of Lincoln was another visitor whose work awakened the greatest admiration. He played two violin numbers on Wednesday afternoon and quite transported the listeners far from the plane of mundane affairs into the realm of the ideal. He gets a beautiful tone, and draws a sure and musicianly bow. We were very proud of those of our Omaha musicians who had a share in the makeup of the special musical programs, of Mr. Cox in his Bruch concerto and his orchestral arrange ments, of Mrs. Wagoner, Mrs. Dale, Mrs. Wylie, Mr. Carnal, the Berry- wans, the First Presbyterian quartet, and m tact all who added interest and pleasure with their talent. Mrs. Flor ence Basler Palmer, whom we had never heard before, quite surprised by the excellence of her singing. A great deal of credit is also de served by Mr. Jean G. Jones, the secretary; upon whom fell the great est share of the responsibility and who fulfilled his numerous duties nobly. As many as 20 delegates came from Lincoln, and prominent teachers from Kearney, Hastings, Columbus and even CentraJ City were in attendance. This organization will undoubtedly be a vital force in the musical life of the state aa time goes on and it becomes older and stronger. There are great possibilities before it which, if realized, will have a far reaching influence. $i The music department of the Oma ha Woman's club serenely goes its way, giving its customary programs and its open day meetings and doing S I C as much as it can for the develop ment and enjoyment of music among its members. Edith L. Wagoner and Mrs. E. R. Zabriskie give an annual sonata recital and the music depart ment of the Omaha Woman's club, seeing an opportunity to give its in fluential support to local music and at the same time help in a financial way, decided to back these two artists in this recital. All of the proceeds will go to support of the Red Cross, and with the enthusiasm and encourage ment of the music department the concert should prove an undoubted success and be the means of turning over a large fund for the cause. This concert will take place Tuesday eve ning, April 9; at the First Christian church, and the program will include a "Sonata in A major, by Handel. "Sonata No. VIII in G major," by Beethoven, "Sonata in C minor opus 45, by Grieg, and a charming suite for piano and viola op. 113 by Schu mann. We have often had occasion to speak of the musical merit of both Mrs. Wagoner and Mrs. Zabriskie in these columns. From a musical standpoint it will be a great treat. In these sonatas there is a dialogue be tween the instruments and a distinc tive character both of the time and the composers, which is educative as well as enjoyable. Frieda Hempel will be heard in re cital on Thursday evening. April 11, at the Boyd theater at 8:15 o'clock, under the ausoices of the Taesdav Musical club. Mr. Paul Eisler, at the piano, will assist. The following pro gram will be given: (a) "Oh. Had I Jubal's Lyre"....,.. Handel (b) "Come, Beloved" Handel (a) "On Wings ot song" Mendelssohn (b) "Hark. Hark the Lark" Schubert (c) "Stars with Golden Sandals" Trans (d) "The Vain Suit" Brahma Piano solo. (a) "Nocturne" Lint (b) "Moment Muslcale" Schubert (a) Theme and Variations" Prochs (a) "The Rose Has Charmed the Night ingale" Rlmsky-Korsakoft (b) "Songs My Mother Taught Me". Dvorak (fl) "My Curly Headed Baby" Clutsant (d) "Bird Song" Taubert (a) "Qui la Vooe," from "Puritanl" Bellini An interesting report of the Kellys in Cincinnati tells that Mr. Kelly is giving 73 lessons a vittk, that he has charge of the music at Christ church in that city, where his work in re ligious music is attracting so much at tention that for the Easter service the church issued cards of admission so that its members would stand a chance of getting in, because the, church was so packed at previous musical sew ices, on raim bunday they gave Stawer s Crucifixion, with Mr. Kelly doing the tenor solos. Mr. Kelly recently gave a lecture on "Oratorid, Passion Music and Can tata," to a capacity audience, inter spersed with musical illustrations by several of his pupils. Appoggiaturas Claude Aehille Debussy, the origina tor and leading figure of the modern French school, after an illness of sev eral years, recently -died in Paris. He was '56 years old. He was a great and distinctly original composer and many of his contributions to the musical literature of the world are of the greatest value! '. Another prominent musician who has passed away is Henry Schradieck, well known both as a violinist and as a teacher of the violin.

The climax of that exhilarating war drama,. Dr. Muck and the 'Star- spangiea manner, or ine mysterious nationality of the Boston Symphony orchestra leader, a real thriller, came last week with the arrest and intern ment of Dr. Muck as an alien enemy by government agents. Professor Auer, the violin peda gogue, perhaps the most famous violin teacher of the world, will teach in Chicago this summer for the sum of only $40 a lesson. I suppose this is because, even though he only gives a pupil 30 minutes, he still considers it an Auer lesson (to pilfer a pun). What combination on the pipe or gan is equal to Mr. Simms as toast master? Swell coupled to great. Mrs. Frederick Heizer of Sioux City, for two years president of the Iowa State Music Teachers' associa tion, was an interested guest at the meetings of the Nebraska association. Musical Notes.

L9ets When it's nice and warm and sunny, A winter hat looks funny, Yet one almost needs to wear 'em on a day like Tuesday last Why, for weeks the skies were beaming, Then ugh! the chilly feeling when old Boreas blew his blast.

Frock and coat are more worn, but not more fashionable than the tail ored suit NO other springtime has brought forth such wonderful silk fabrics for sportswear, and no store in all the middle west has such an alluring collection of these, as has Thompson, Belden's. Charming alike for suits, or separate skirts are the new Fairway silks, which somewhat resemble the Rajah silks of last sea son, but are of heavier texture and are far handsomer in appearance. These come at $4, and are a yard in width. Baronette satin, which is perhaps the favored of all sports fabrics this season, is shown in all its shimmering, glistening beauty and exquisite color tones. It is 42 inches wide and $4.50 per yard, while Moon-glo crepe in a wide range of Colors and super-attractive in it loveliness is 40 inches wide at $4.
