O YOU remember that love-
Dl ly drama by Jerome K. je
I t-ome, which Sir Forbes
Kobertson made hi own
called the "Pissing of the
Third Floor Back?" So re
freshing and idyllic, and like a breath
of fresh air after some of the plays
one sees. Do you remember the
tvoical boardins house before the
Third Floor Back came into it, bow
dingy it was and how sordid the
lives of the people who lived there?
Yet the very first night the stranger
was in their midst the transforma
tion begun. These people were not
really bad oeoole. they were simply
in a rut of the unpleasant things, and
instead of mastering their environ
ment, the environment was rap
idly mastering them. Then the
Third Floor Back came into their
lives, and. oh. what a change it made.
The cad went in for decent enter
tainment, "to give pleasure without
vulgarity," the artist did not debase
his talent, but lived up to his ideals
of the best.
The . wealthy, retired "bookie," in
stead of spending hit money on vain

tives. He even brought sunshine into
the life of the lonely little servant.
and gave her food for thought, some
thing to live up to and to enrich her
life. Everyone with whom he came
in contact was influenced for the bet
ter, because he appealed to their
nobler selves, helped them to look
beyond the petty annoyances to the
bigger and higher sides of life, and
led them to think clearly and to
live up to the best that was in them.
He never lectured or criticised the
small things; his work was entirely
done by an almost subconscious sug
gestion. It is rather a peculiar play, with
the principle character unnamed. He
was simply called by the location of
his room, and nobody knew who he
was nor whence he came. I happened
to be reading this over the other day,
and was idly wondering about him.
Who was he. anyway? Who could
so easily and so remarkably effect
so many, different kinds of people,
from so many walks of life who hap
pened to be living in proximity to
one another?
Then of a sudden this thought
came. He wasn't a person at all,
ust an impersonation, w ny wasn i
he the impersonation of active par
ticipation and co-operation in good
music locaiiyr ror once mis comes
into a community in d lives right with
the people, it has much the same ef
fect. Could this have been the se
cret of his identity?
I wonder.
Her Omaha friends will be inter
ested in the following newspaper
comments of the Boston recital of
Miss Frances Nash, and which were
selected for several similar ones:

The Auditorium is conducting a

Godowsky appeared there in this man
ner in October, and last Thursday
evening Julia Claussen, the famous
contralto, gave a perfectly hypotheti
cal recital there before an audience
composed of politicians, public and
buttermilk. So far this course has
been entirety successful from a con
templative and anticipatory point of
view, and future announcements of
great artists to appear upon this de
cidedly unusual course will be awaited
with speculative and, shall one say,
an astral interest?
"The good that men do lives after
them." The other day Mr. Simms
showed me a letter written to him by
Mr. Landsherg after a concert by the

often wrote these little notes of appre

appreciated by the recipients.

Sigmund Landsberg
An Anprecintloa.
Omaha musical circles were very
deeply and sadly shocked at the
death ot Sigmund Landsberg. He
had lived many years in Omaha, and
was widely known in the state and
abroad. He was constantly compos'
ing, and his work was published and
aold. It was played alike by stu
dents and artists. Hardly any of
us, his friends, but have a song with
his ornate and original autograph,
which we treasure.
Sigmund Landsberg might have
been quite a rich man if he had not
sold Dry Yo byes for htteen dol
lars to a publisher. Thousands of
copies have been sold, and the attrac
tive air has been arranged for almost
every combination of voices and sung
far and wide. Strange to relate, this
song lay for eight years before it
came into the ranks of the best sell
ers. Mr. Landsberg used to tell
about it, and he called his little story
"The Physcology of a Song." It in
terested him to .observe how the
whimsical thought of a morning
could rise to such a burst oi popu
larity. He could never quite com
pass the exact explanation of this
particular happening, but would
shake his head and laugh, and say.
Well, that s the way it goesr
I have the pleasure of remembering
that on two Saturdays this summer
he gave little picnic parties at our
place in the Florence hills. He said
he enjoyed the grass, and the green
trees, ne played through a score
of "Parsifal" which wu Ivinff on the
piano in the music room, and looked
at several books on musical subjects,
but it was the great out-of-doors that
he reveled inthe air, the area of
Space, and the great quiet. " -
I am particularly indebted to him
for helping me arrange Wilbur N.
Nesbitt's "Flag Song," which was
sung by a quartet at the unveiling
of the Fontenelle portrait The Co
lonial Dames of Nebraska appreci
ated bis enthusiastic and kindly ef
fort. The hymn added greatly to the
ceremony.
The Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben were
grateful to him for many tuneful
hours. He told me that he enjoyed
so much conducting his opera on
gala occasions. He had many threads
of friendship woven in various pat
terns, and it is hard to understand
why he chose suddenly to leave
everybody and everything dear to
hhri, and go oat into the great on
known. He was a jolly, sunny, little
man. Certainty grief did not seem
to belong to him. I suppose he got
to the place where he couldn't smile
any more; tears and depression he
couldn't stand. Well, we wish him
peace and a hiropy issne out of all
his difficulties. He will be missed bv
those he left behind who are still
marching along the rlustv road.

How Fritz Kreisler Got His Wound;
Humble Private Saves Great Artist
The world in general and music in
particular owes a great debt of grati
tude to an humble private of the Third
Jaeger regiment of Graa, in which or
ganization Friti Kreisler, who will ap
pear at the Auditorium Monday eve
ning, December 4, under the auspices
of the Associated Retailers, served as
lieutenant in the early part of the
great war. It was the bravery and
devotion of this man which has saved
to the world the greatest violinst of
our time and one of tha finest artists
of all times. Kreisler's regiment was
sent to the front August 19, 1914, and
immediately went into battle. They
were holding a line of trenches near
Lcmberg. Telling the story of how
he was wounded and rescued, Kreisler
has said:
"Without doubt, I owe my life to
my orderly. The trenches my regi
ment was holding were rushed by the
Cossacks on the-night of September 6.
The cavalry only dares attack en
trenched infantry at night when they
have some protection from rifle fire.
It was about J 1:30 when they at
tacked us. -
"I can remember being hit by one
horse and knocked down. While I
lay I saw a second Cossack reach
down to finish me. He ot me in the
hip, but as ha struck me I fired raj
revolver. I remember seeing him fall
and the riderless horse gallop on.
Then I became unconscious. My or
derly retired with the rest of the com
pany. After the fighting had moved
on he came back and started to look
for me, using a pocket flash lamp to
examine the faces of the dead and
wounded. He says that several times
he was nearly caught by Cossack pa
trols, but escaped dropping to the
ground, where he was taken for
wounded or dead. He found me about
)'i n, io 1 most have been lying
there about four hours.
"He says I was lying on the dead
Cossack who had wounded me, and
that 1 must have grappled with him
and then used him for a pillow. He
gave me some brandy and revived me
and then assisted me back to onr lines

The buying public, which has seen
practically every other line revolu
tionized by the injection of modern
and efficiency methods into its busi
ness, has wondered why the builders
have been so slow in meeting the de
mands for better building service.
They had come to the conclusion that
the building business-could be entirely
revised by means of an adjustment
here and a rearrangement there.
Such, however, is not the case. If
it were the builders would have long
ago eliminated the waste and the
methods of inefficiency and uncer
tainty of 'an older-day building
method. Finally, builders making a study of
the situation recognized that the two
important elements to be considered
were co-operation and organization.
From the careful study of the difficul
ties was evolved what is known as
"The Modern Building Organization."
And those concerns which were in a
position to adopt this plan have dem
onstrated to hundreds of satisfied
building owners that there is a way to
conduct a large building operation, or
large number ot smaller buiiumg
operations, that is both efficient ana
economical.
The difficulty, the investors found,
was in the fact that so many different
professions and trades were necessary
to the construction of a large building.
Of the former, eight or more are re
quired, while forty-six or more differ
ent trades are necessary to the com
pletion of a large building. To these
must oe aaaea tne services oi men
intimately acquainted wtih the many
kinds of materials, products, devices,
etc. It can be seen, from this, that the
building business, as a whole, is prob
ably one of the most complicated in
existence today.
The Modern Building organization
does not attempt to weld all these into
a whole; it docs not attempt to equip
itself with the facilities for construct
ing everything in the way of a build-
illfT.
When the Bankers Realty Invest
ment company adopted its plan of
Modern Building organization, it did
not equip itself to do marine building,
nor buildings peculiar to the Atlantic
or Pacific coasts. But it did study the
needs of, and place itself in position,

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS.
MISS a O. T. X think it hideous to see
hair under the arms. The fashions of today
absolutely require its removal. But for
goodness soke, don't "burn" them off with
the ordinary superfluous hair removers. A
really wonderful way and the easiest and
quickest way is to dissolve them. This is
dene by moistening the hairs with sulfo
solution, which yon can get at any drug
tore. This never leaves a scar or red spot,
always works whether the hair is very thick
or downy, and on the most delicate skin,
it's the only way.

about 50 per cent of the cost of the
