WONDERFUL STAGE EFFECTS
The Straw-bridge & Clothier Chorus
ignve its annual concert at the Metro
hers find pleasure ns well as musical
instruction In their work. It has never
done better singing than last evening
nml it speaks much for the skill of OoM
tor Tily s training that the chorus was
amc to respond so readily and ciTectively
to the leading of another conductor, ns
Mr. lladley led his own composition.
The soloists were all Phlladclphlans,
Horatio Connell. baritone; Jtobcrt
Wtinif, tenor, and Kntluyn .Melsle, con
tralto, appearing in "The Crusaders"

polltnii Opern House last evening nml nm the came trio with the addition of
ng usual il was fur more than a con
cert in the ordinary sense of the word,
nfl'hc organization lias made n unique
iposition for Itself in the artistic life of
the city, for its work was more thnn
'purely muslrnl; it included to n high
degree the arts of atnee setting, light
ing and n general background which
served to intensify the real message of
the music.
Hack of nil this, however, was an
nliegorlcnl thought which was the real
heart of the evening's performance.
There were two cant. 'it as rendered.
"The Crusaders." by Oade. and Henry
.Hntlley's "The New Knrtii." These
livii u-iti-.i ui tivimI no trt rnmiilnmnnt nin)i
oilier nllegnricnlly, the (inde work ' EJ
'representing the crusaders of the middle
nges and the Hadley cantata the cru- ' jS
sailers who went from our country nud ' jjj
others (o save the world n couple of i a
years ago. Bl
First as to the performance The jj
fiade cantata was conducted by the H
leader of the chorus. I)r Herbert .1. m
Mac Kbrey Holz. Tonriittn. in "The
New Knrth." All were In good voice
nnd nil are familiar to the Philadelphia
concert public except .Mr. tjuait, who lias
n voice of unusual baauty and quality,
but who has not yet quite enough tinlsh
to his work. He Is. however, a mo3t
promising young singer. The other so
loists nre too well known for tho gen
eral excellence of their work to, require
further comment.
The compositions are as far removed
from each other in musical feeling as
the spirit of the times in which they
were composed. Occasionally Oade rose
above the kapellmeister plane of com
position, but lie did not do so in "Tho
Crusaders." nlhelt It Is his most famous
cantata. Despite the spirited reading
which Doctor Tily gave, the composi
tion is dry nnd uninspired, although of
unquestionable workmanship. How
ever, this very quality made it n strong
contrast to the virile music of Mr.
Hadley, which followed.
The tableaux, which illustrated both
works, were literally marvels of beauty,
besides, in so far ns tho average ob
server could distinguish, being nbso
lutely correct historically. The idea of
thus illustrating n cantata is a novelty
but a worthy one. for mo't cantatas
would be decidedly improved by adding
the sense of sight to that of hearing.
Last year, when tho first of these re
markablc evenings was" given by the
Straw-bridge & Olothicr Chorus, the
tableaux took precedence j this Vear they
were supplemental to the music, which
is their correct function. The program
moved without tho slightest "hitch,"
which is such high praise that nothing
more need be said,
In this entertnlnment, which to the
credit of Philadelphia, be it said, was
witnessed by n very large nudlcncc, the
Htrnwbrldgc & Clothier Chorus has in
troduced nn absolute novelty, every de
tail of which was carried out with the
utmost attention to detail nnd histori
cal fidelity. The request regarding ap

"Will
Philadelphia
Fail"
Ask Leaders
In War for
Public
Health?
The Henry Phipps Irstitute
of THE
University of Pennsylvania
THE PHIPPS INSTITUTE'S treasury will be empty on May 1
except for what money Philadelphians Invest in Public Health
with The Phipps Institute as Trustee before that date.
AS TO THE URGENCY and expediency of Philadelphians making
such Investment in Public Health, here is what three of Amer
ica's Field Marshals in the battle for Better Health say:
Dr. Hermann M. Biggs
New York's State Commissioner of Health
" The Phipps Institute is an unique institution. There is nothing like it in this
country and, so far as I know, in any other country. It undertakes not
only the care and treatment of tuberculosis and medical problems re
lating thereto, but, primarily, it is an institution of research, a bureau
of research with reference to tuberculosis; research into problems of
sociological research into methods of treatment of tuberculosis. More than
that, it is an educational institution where medical students are trained in
this extremely important problem, where nurses are trained and where
men are given an opportunity for post-graduate study. Further, the In
stitute is a very important addition to public health.
a Public health is purchasable within natural limitations. It is absolutely with
in the power of a community to determine how much sickness and death
there shall be in that community. I feel very strongly that the authorities,
that the municipal and state authorities should feel that these problems
are their problems, and that it is a part of good citizenship and wise finan
cial foresight to contribute in no small measure to tho advancement of
such work."
Dr. David R. Lyman
Ex-President National Tuberculosis Association
u We men who have been doing clinical work in tuberculosis throughout the
country for 20 years have been watching The Phipps Institute since its
inception, and taking pride as Americans in The Phipps Institute and its
work. We are now watching Philadelphia and wondering if it is con
ceivable that the work of this institution b'e allowed to lapse in the slight
est. To us, such a thing js inconceivable. Your Phipps Institute is a
national problem, a national institution.
a The proper study of the tuberculosis problem requires special clinics, spe
cial laboratories and special brains. It is not every place that has any one
of the three. In Philadelphia you have all three, and you have them in
Phipps a unique institute, where you have the combination of the labora
tory equipment and brains. It has everything but the money. That you
have got, and should give. The Phipps Institute is one of the very few
places in the country where we who are doing the country's clinical work
can hope to. have answered for us many vital questions as to the intimate
problems of. the community. My message to Philadelphia is this:
a You are looked to by the nation to support a national problem chiefly out of
your local purses. It is not the first time in history that Philadelphia has
been asked to make big contributions to the public weal. If you support
and keep going the work of The Phipps Institute, I feel you have a chance
that no other city, no other people in the country have, of aiding the final
solution of the big problem which has oppressed the human race from
the standpoint of health for years, and that is the final control of tuberculosis."
Dr. Livingston Farrand
Chairman Central Committee, American Red Cross
a There has been no time when The Phipps Institute was so greatly needed as
today. We are making rapid progress in prevention of disease. We need
sound leadership. Dealing with tuberculosis, we are dealing with a phase
of public health that touches every other phase of public health.. When
we improve our methods of fighting tuberculosis, we are improving our
methods of fighting the battle of public health generally. We a:e putting
into operation certain tested measures, but we are seeking extension of
these methods.
a There are very few places in the world where the adequacy and effectiveness
of new methods can be tested, and tested soundly. The Phipps Institute
is one of these places, and, perhaps, the chief place. For that reason, view
ing the Institute as of national and international significance, I make the
plea that it be given the support necessary to see that it not only continues
on the present basis, but that it be given the means to test adequately those
phases of the tuberculosis problem the solution of which is necessary to
make the progress in this country which conditions demand.".
