Mrs. Meyer was Miss Esther Stewart Mulford, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
H. K. Mulford, of Wayne. Her marriage took place last month.
W1XL, the Monday Mornln? Musicales
sire to contlnuo this year, and all for
gwee- charltj. They were undoubtedly a
grea success last year, and Mrs. Harold
Yurnall. who sponsored them last sea
ton, has decided to get them up again.
And the net proceeds are to go to the Amer
ican overseas committee of the Emergency
Aid, which, you know, has been founed
for tlio purpose of supplying the wants
of our boys In France. Tho circular
which attends tho announcement of the
musicales states: "it Is u tlmo when every
effort must bo made to supply our war
relief organizations with adequate funds,
and at the same time it is imperative tint
our local musical activities bo kept ullvo
If the musical life of the city Is not to
retrograde. No one of tho arts can sup
ply the necessary relief from war and lt3
attendant strain to well as music md It
Is therefore hoped that this twofold object
of the Monday musicales will be realized."
The concerts will certainly bo gorgeous,
If one may Judge from tho artists that
have been procured. The first will be held
on December 3, when Claudia Muzio, so
prano of tho Metropolitan Opera Com
pany, and Paul Rclmers, tho well-known
tenor, will sing. At the second concert, on
December 17, Oscar Seagle, baritone, and
Hans Klndler, violoncellist, will bo heard,
while on December 31, Kmllio Gorgorza,
baritone, and Mlscha Levitzkl. pianist,
will appear.
Filtz Kreisler, tho famous violinist, will
play on January 1 1 and February 4:
Louise Homer, contralto of the Metro
polltan Opera Company, will sing and
Eleanor Spencer will play. At the last
concert Maggie Teyte, of the Boston
Opera Company, will sing and Arthur
Shattuck will play.
Now, you know, that is some musical
program and borne musicians. To say It
will be a treat Is mild beyond all mild
ness; why. It wll bo simply wonderful,
and It 13 a satisfaction to feel ' that in
ubacrlbtng to these mornings of music
one will really bo helping our boys in
France as well as enjoying oneself. ,Tho
concerts will be held as before in the
Bellevue-Stratford on Monday mornings
at 11 o'clock.

AMERICAN MUSIC
WELL PRESENTED
Philadelphia Orchestra Opens
Season With Interesting Works
by Native Composers
Art that deliberately espouses propa
ganda, even though so noble a cause ns
patriotism be furthered. Is often cribbed,
cabined and confined by the walls of preju
dice and bigotry. Even modern France,
civilized and Intellectually ncuto as she Is,
has fallen Into this blind alley, barred with
prohibition against performing tho works
of Richard Wagner during the period of tho
war. Considered politically this situation
accentuates the Just scorn In which the
herolo republic holds her barbarous and
treachorous foe. But from the purely artis
tic standpoint her action Is foolish. "Tris
tan und Iso do" remains a monument of
nvwlcal beauty, notwithstanding the sinking
of the Lusltanla or oven the fiendish bomb
ing of Red Cross hospitals. Muslo nnd
politics are widely unrelated themes.
Not a few lovers of symphonic art, there
fore feared that Leouopld Stokowskl's pre
sentation of an "All-American" concert pro
gram nt the opening of tho Philadelphia
Orchestra's season yesterday afternoon In
the Academy of Muslo might perhaps be
token more regard for loyalty In a world
crisis than reverence for what Is best In
music, Irrespective of boundary lines. It
so happened, however, that those who came
In trepidation remained to thrill. Mr
Stokowskl's program wns not only patriotic,
but repreentatlvo of high achievement in
the field of muslo. It was permissible for
auditors to be at onco loyal and proud of
their conn jser-patrlots. Charges of spread
englo prejidlco are thus happily quashed
Foreign musical giants will havo their In
nings at succeeding concerts. It was Amer
It t's turn cstcrday. nnd so far at least ns
Edgar Stlllman Kelley and Arthur Foote
wero concerned tho hearing was richly de
served. The former was represented by n
nnlnue. svmnhonv entitled "New England"
that essayed tho difficult .task of expressing
the Puritan temperament nnd Ideals In
terms of music. Spiritual Inspiration for
tho four movements was derived from the
quaint and touching log book of the May-
dower. The conmct or two motives sug
gestive icspccilvely of JJty nnd the human
longing for the beautiful In life provide the
essential mnterlat of a musical structure,
fnt-hloned with admirable continuity of
thought, with clarity of Instrumental vision
ni.d with a sense of melcdlc loveliness that
vtry successfully execute the composer's
design. There are faint echoes of Beet
hoven's Sixth Symphony In tho exquisite
prstoral movement and of Mclsterslnger
coloring In the treatment of an old New
England hymn In tho "lamentation" pass
age But. on the whole, the work Is as
original In Inspiration as It Is In aim Dull
moments In the score aro rare and Its mas
tery of modern polyphony Is authentic,
sound nnd without Strausslan extravagance.
Mr. Foote's offering. In light and sym
pathetic vein, was a tonal treatment of
certain stanzas front Omar. Philip Goepp's
"Heiolc March," whlcn closed tho concert,
has been prcviourly heard here It Is vig
orous nnd authoritatively written, although
without distinctive charm. Tho "Samsin"
of Rubin CJoldimrk proved to be a rather
(Jreary and muddy effort to derive Inspira
tion from tho field so gloilously tllltd by
Camilla Salnt-Sacns The "tone poem," as
Gcldmark has named It, headed a program
that was in general highly creditable to
n ration yet youn In music. It Is almost
mP rlluoua to add tbnt the orchcitra, s.ivo
for a few horn weaknesses duo to damp
weather, wis in fine form, nnd that tho con
ductor was rapturously received. II. T. C.

"ttpiAT Is now known as Tioga was
" originally part of tho hunting
grounds of the Cayuga tribe of Indians.
The land passed from tho original owners
to William Penn by his famous treaty.
Subsequently It becamo part of the largo
Logan tract nnd formed part of tho land
connected with Solitude, an old mansion
that onco stood, surrounded by stately
trees, at Twelfth and Cambria streets.
Later the largo tract extended from Ger
mantown nvenuo westwnrd to the old
township road, known In history aa the
Reading road, and now from Twenty-third
nnd Venango streets ns Wissahlckon ave
nue. The old road south of Venango
street having been vacated, NIcetown
lane, now Hunting Park avenue, formed
the northern boundary, from which tho
tract extended southward to Rising Sun
lano. Tho district subsequently become
known as tho Kenderton Farm nnd was
owned by the late Kenderton Smith.
In 1834 tho Philadelphia, Gcrmantown

railroad close to tho place where Tioga
station, on tho east side of the tracks,
now stands. Tho station was called Ken
derton, tho namo by which the vlllago
was known. In 1854 It was consolidated
Into tho city of Philadelphia. As tho
older government had begun the custom
of naming streota and avenues running
cast and west after the counties of Penn
sylvania, the custom was continued by
the city, and Tioga street being nearest
the station, the namo of Tioga was sub
stituted for Kenderton, owing to mistakes
on the part of passengers who alighted
from the cars at Kenderton thinking the
conductor had called out Kensington.
With the growth of the town tho name
Tioga gradually superseded that of Ken
derton, the last Instance being tho change
of tho title of tho Presbyterian church
from Keriderton to Tioga. Tho corner
stone of this church at Tloge and Six
teenth streets was laid October 24, 1SG9.
The organization was established through
the outcome of a Sunday school begun
In that vicinity nearly forty years bo-,
fore. October Is a good month for the
anniversary celebration of tho corner
stone laying.
Another Red Cross auxiliary has been
organized in this section and has started
its meetings with forty-six enthusiastic
workers. It is No. 102, and the members
