Says Encourages ") oung Writers
Philadelphia is discoveiing that inst
outside her limits she has a lilerarv
light thai is due lo' shine moie and more
with everv pissing month.
His name is Joseph Hergesheimer.
Mr. illcigpsheimcr wasn't in when
a visitor arrived at his home in West
Chester tic other da,, but two line
Aiieil.ilcs. did their lwsi to entcrt'iin
him When he appeal ul he was all
business. He Us out of his automo
bile nt ,i jump and was talking us In
came up on the porch
That is the first, last and definite,
final impression that one gets of him
vitality nnd business to the linger tips.
None of this languid litei.ir, tempera
ment, but business-like emcienc, , in
Mr. Hergesheimer.
Nobody Cares
"Heaufiful pl'iceV cs, it is. Quiet,
too: nobodv cares a continental about
liteiature out here and I'm not .lis
furbed I'd like in some v.uvs to go
to N'cvv York, but. Lord, I couldn't
stand going out places . vcr, night of
the week. I don't see him the, do it.
"The first person to . ome tu sie in"
here." went on the writer, "was from
Australia, the nett from the China
const, the next from California nnd so
on. till now it is I'liiladelnliin."
Seeing his visitor staring at him in
Pvident si.rprisp. he laughed
"I didn't mean iictunllv. but figura
tive!, Whatever recognition I've r--reived
hns come roni ahrivi.l first. I'm
surprised nt the popularity I've won
in England, and it wasn't until English
critics like Edmund Gosse started to
speak well of me that American critics
even knew I existed."
Started on the subject of critics, Mr.
Hergesheimer proceeded to tell what he
thought of criticism in general.
Critirlsfs the Clitics
"I don't know for a fact, sometimes,
whether Tm being praised or attacked
in n criticism. I doubt if unjoody.
even the critic, knows just whnt he is
talking about. They all love to use
high-sounding or stock phrases which
1 don't think mean an, tiling.
" 'The Great American Novel.' 'The
Great Novel of the War.' the 'R
mantir' and 'Realist' schools, 'stjje'.
local color' and all the lest of them.
"re used indiscriminately anil very often
without any definite knowledge of what
tl-ev inenn."
"I don't know what they mpan by
great novel of the war' I will sny
that no one could stand a rcnllv Iiiip

five vears the first reiill, great novel
of the war will come. I Hon I see why
it ever has to come.
"The war had the effect of hurting
literature. This is natural because men
be-an to think nnd net in common in a
spirit of national feeling. Individu
ality was submerged in a very natural
patriotic burst.
"1 don't say it wnsn t n very good
tiling, or thnt the wor and every man's
share of duty hi it weren't more im
portant thun the literary genius of an
individual, but 1 will sa, that it was
rather u question of what the war
got out of the writer, not what the
writer got out of the war. The effect
on him wus not wholly good."
Noiel of War? No
Mr. Hcrgeshcimrr has not and does
not coutcmplatc writiug a novel of the
war.
At about this point the conversation
drifted back to critics and then to
teachers. Here it was that Mr. Herge
sheimer, who is about forty xears old,
said ;
"I've been to school only two jears of
my life, aud so my knowledge of ncu
dentic things nnd the pedagogical view
point is limited. The jenrs when n
boy is usually acquiring his education
I was studying art right here In Phila
delphia. (Mr. Hergesheimer, by the
way, spiked all rumors about his birth
place. He is really aud trul, u Phila
delphlun or a near one.)
"Then I went abroad, studied art
some more, traveled and lived nlong ns
best I could. Perhaps 1 shouldn't talk,
but I really doubt the efficacy of edu
cation, especially for one of a literary
bent The example of n favorite and

Wiile About What You Like
Mr Hergesheimer's one rule and
p.iiam.iutit piece of advice to would he
U'ttho.-s is- "Wiite ah.. ut something

counts mosi of all."
Mr Hergesheimer hesitated over the
question. "Would ,ou advise voung uu
thors to write for mag.uincs?" Finally,
he said he couldn't answer it vcr, veil.
"I haven't anv or, against the maga

ble, is that jo'ing writers having made
some sun ess. tie themselves up to long
contni'ts with migazines and then be

HERBERT FAVORS
MINISTER OPARTS
Composer Would Have Govern
ment Aid Deserving Artists
and Musicians
Victor Herbert, conductor and com
poser, finds a number of things wrofas
with the prespnt status of American
muslp. In the course of a conversation
which begun ns a friendl, talk nnd ended
by asking "leave to print" nnd obtaining'
it. Mr. Herbert told of mnny things
which might Iip Improved to the ulti
mate good of the American composer.
He strongly advocated official, or
rnther Government, aid for the musi
cian ns well as for all the fine arts.
"They ought to establish n ministry
of fine arts," said Mr. Herbert. "Down
in Washington they talk about 'civillza
tion' every Jive nilnutes, but they are
more glnd to sec a bricklayer come to
town than an artist or a musician.
They talk a lot but they don't do any
thing." This nnturnlly led to the complete
campaign of propaganda for their music
nnd miisicinns which the French Govern
ment conducted in the Pnited States
dining the season just closed.
"Those governments do something for
their miisicinns und nrtists," said Mr.
Herbert. "The French Government
practically put Monteux nt the head of
the Huston S.vmphon, Orchestra, Of
course he is n good musician, but xve
have right here in this country dozens
as good and better Did ,nu ever hea
of the American Government putting
an, one in a fine position in Europe or
anywhere else? It's ghastly "
Government Asleep
"Then again, there is the case of M.
Messagcr. who was sent over here by
the French Government tit the head of
a line orchestra to tour our country in
behalf of French music. I met M. Mes
sager and he is n charming man und a
tine gentleman. Over in his own coun
Irv his business is just what mine is
heie he writes comic operas for a
living. Itut whnt chance have I to be
sent abroad b, the American Govern
ment to create sentiment in favor of
our really good American music? About
as much chance ns I have to fly without
using an airplane."
America First
Mi. Herbert then mentioned one of
our leading American composers by
name. "Thai is just what I meant,"
he said. "This joung mnn ought to
have a line place here in his own
country, where his living is assured aud
where he would have the time to do the
composition of which we all know lip
is capable. Hut no; all these fine places ,
go lo foreigners and no move is made
either bj our government or our
wealth, people to change the situation,
lit would have been far better for this
voung man and dozens like him if he
had been born abroad; then their abili
ties might have some ehnnce of being
recogui7.d in America "
Mr. Herbert said that he admired the
.voting composers of Ibis country for
writing works that they knew they
could not get either performed or pub'
lb bed. for- it shows their devotion to
their nrl.
"And the reason the, can't get them
pi.hlished is because there is uo market
for this kind of music" said Mr. Her-
1 beit "People sa often: 'Herbert can
get an, thing published' but thut is not
so I have a lot of s, inphonic poems,
, tut bestial suites anil music of that
'class which no one will publish be
cause there is no market iu this country
! foi it "
Mr. Herbert concluded by saying that
the real icasoii for the lack of a dis
tinctive!, Ameiic.in st hool of composi
tion is because we have no folk song.
