THE CRITIC TALKS

WITH the concerts of the Philadelphia
Orchestra nvt rrllnv nml .Qneile.
day the Philadelphia Orchestra Chorus
will make Its first nppenrnnce of the
"e-nsen In the Htheven Ninth Hvm-
phony. The Ninth wns given nt the
close of the Inst season, nml the usu.u
discussion rngt-tl for mine days ns te
Its exact plnce In the semewhnt limited
literature 'or chorus nnd erchestrn As
Is the situation In nil cases of musical
dispute, there were "offensive pnrtlsmns"
en both sides nnd each displayed the In
tolerance of the views of their opponents,
which Is utmost nlwnys manifested when
musicians disagree
Prebnblv each has something of Jus
tice In his argument. fs"e one can
musical lilenn In the Ninth Mynipneny.
esneclnllv In the orchestral tmrts. hut en
'he ether hand, It ennnet be denied that
Beethoven was net one of the grent com-
Mie.. rn. 1.A ..l Ul. 1.A em n rill
trented ery much nfter the manner of
nn erchcBtrtti instrument Heetheven,
with few exceptions, wrote lelng!y for
almost every Instrument In the orches
tra ; this does net mean that the parts
are easy, 'or thev nre net. In many In
stances, hut the dlfllcultles which he In
troduces are legitimate ones that Is.
thev nre fullv Justified liv the effects
which he preducs by their ue.
B
UT net even the most enthusiastic
singer can Justly claim that the
snme consideration Is shown te the vecnl
narts In his irn.it works for chorus nnd
orchestra. In many cases the elce p.irts
are nlmest unslngnble. nnd the Ninth
8mphenv Is no exception te this rule:
Indeed, It stands rensennhlv high among
the Instances which go te make the rule
almost without exception
At the snme time, the Ninth Kymphenv
must be classed among the three greatest
works for chorus nnd orchestra, the two
ethers helnsr the Bach IJ miner mass
nnd the Brnhms Itequlem Perhaps It
wns In these three works thnt en Bu
low get th famous ' thr U s : '"t
Is, Bach Beetheen and Brahms, which
rtree Dm ultra Wngnerltes and umi
Brnhmsltes of Bcrmnny nearly te
dlstrnctlen when It wns first pro
mulgated However. If the casual
reader will take the tretiM" te els"rvj
the number of times that Beethoven and
Brnhms appear en the symphonic, pro pre
grams of the great orchestras of this
ind ether countries during the course
e a season he may be convlnced that
there might be something In what en
Hulew said, at that Of course, there
's no question ns te Bach.
It is understood that Mr. Stokewskl
Intends te give the Brahms Ilenulem
later in the jwnsen with the chorus. It
has net been performed here for a long
time, nnd It takes about ns adequate a
choral body te de It Justice I?'1,'
Ninth Symphony Itself The composi
tion wns written by Brahms shortly after
the death of his mother nnd wits In
tended ns n tribute te her memory it
was composed comparatively early In his
cn-iitlv.- career nn.l was tb work which
definitely placed him among the great
ompesera.
THE ever-Increasing success of the
Philadelphia. Orchestra Is naturally
a matter of great pride te everv Ph"a
delphlan. nnd the production of these
great choral works among the .ethers
which go te make up the seasons pro pre
Tarns, net only mnkes for the greater
success of the erchcetr.i nt home and

Christmas Presents for the Peer
Te tht Saiter of the Kcmlsa PiibMe iedeer.'
Sir It Is net tee early for us te begin
our preparation! for ChMstmaa In the way
of selecting gifts and planning hew we can
entertain our friends and otherwise make
It a jnjeus occasion. Te put off such
preparations until clege te the Christmas
period Is a gnat mistake and brings en a
fuah that Is completely nerve-racking, nnd
leavei us en Chrlttmas Day completely ex
hausted and tee tired te enjoy the festivities
Thla little suggestion Is merely a fore
runner for another question In which I urn
mere deeply Interested, and that I te see
that the peer may have as Joyous a Christ
lima as possible There are going te be
mere peer this Christmas te be looked after
than there has been In the last flve or six
ears, due te the business depression and
the great number of laborers who have
been thrown out of emplement,
It must le put up te the people emplejed
and these who can afford It te help bring
t'hrlatmus cheer te their leas fortunate,
hrethus and their families. Thla can be
dcsie at very llttle cxpenae and with very
little effort. Let each family who ftels they
can afford It aet aside a certain small sum
te be used for Christmas charity, this te
be expended for gifts In the wny of clothing,
feed or tes for the children. If you will
took around ou will flhd aome needy per
sons among your acquaintance s te whom ou
can glve these' gifts and bring a llttle
Christmas cheer Inte their hearts. It ou
can't nnd any such ou can depend thnt
ou will hear through friends and through
the newspapers of mahy families where the
word Christmas will mean nothing te them
unteaa you beceme their geed angel.
Don't be gelfleh at Chrlstims time above
all periods. If ou knew hew happy It would
make you te see some peer llttle kiddle
happy through jour cfte'la you would de It
and wonder why the thought never came te
ou before. I believe te all real poeplo the
giving of gifts brings mere pleasure th'vn
the receiving of gifts, and If you have never
done se before, try It this ear te give a few
little gifts te charity, te people who are peer
and cannot afford te purchase them, nnd
cMfccla'ly te peer children. ... ...,,

Takes Sides With Enfjtlahman
Te tin editor of ttit JTueiiltie i"iittle Lcdeer:
Sir I have read the letter In your Peo
ple's Forum In which an Englishman criti
cised rather severely the manners of the
Amerlcnn women. I have alae rend several
letters from women who have taken hlnv te
taek In the matter nnd hive handled him
rather roughly. I am a woman an Amerl
em eman hn has net ene relntlve or
friend of English birth or descent. and se 1
may net be considered partial through
friendship or relationship when I corns te
the defense of thla English vlalter.
I think he was rather fair te American
women. He acknowledged thnt they were
mere beautiful than English women and did
them credit In ether ways, but net wtin It
came te culture and geed manners. New I
urn sure he was speaking of women as n
whole, for he singled out no particular set of
women.
As a whole I myself feel, and see evi
dences every day, that the American women
nre retrograding In their geed manners,
their deportment, their consideration for
ethers, nnd are hardly less than vulgar In
their actlena en the street and In public
places, such as hotel dining rooms, enfes,
etc. Fer some 5 ears, ever since the agita

women te vote. 1 have noticed thla rctro rctre rctro

The Soldiers' Families
Te the Kdltnr at the Kvtnine Public J.tiletr!
Sir I believe that the clasa of peer
people who should be looked after mere
than any ether this winter, new that busi
ness Is bad, employment Is acarve and wag's
nre gradually getting lower, Is the family
whose head or sons hive been In the aerv
Icb of their country In the recent war.
These families, with the small wages paid
the soldiers, were unable te lay salde any
money for auch a condition as new exists,
and they nre the ones that are going te
feci the depress'en meat and the ones who
are meat deserving of our help, Instead of
the families 'whose husbands and sons were
emplejed In geed pnjlng positions In this
country for several years, and If they de
net have money laid aside te help thm
through this crisis, It Is their own fault,
due te their extravagance.
The mothers of the soldier bejs are de
serving of our fullest sympathy If these
bejs are having a struggle te get along at
present, and It Is te them we should dis
tribute our charity and It la te theae aene
that we should give employment In prefer
ence te these who were net patriotic enough
te go te the war. The charitable organiza
tion would de well te single out such fa
milies, for I am aure the donntlena would
be most liberal If any of these aeldiers
families needed assistance. ..

Thla cannot be nccurateiy siuire.
different authorities disagree, but probably
Prof Iluge Is nearly correct He atates
that the coat of the armament of the first
fleet of Celuinbua, cenalstlng of three small
vessels, la given 111 all tha decutm nta as
1.14OO00 maravedla What this sum rep
resents In our own money Is net easily
determined. The mnravedl was a uniill
coin that was In use at the end of the fif
teenth century and the btstnnlne of tbe alx
tienth. Huge comes te the conclusion, nfter ex-
ininiti. various decrrm of Ferdinand, that
thu vulue of the muravcdl was nbeut 2 BU
pfennig, or less than three-quarters of a cent
In modern money. Therefore the contribu

about 17290. without taking Inte consldero censldero consldere

In the days of Columbus.
The city of Pale had te furnish, out of
Its own means, two small ships, manned

Hellespent and Dardanelles
Te the Kdlter e the .venlne Public Ledger:
Sir De the terms Hellespent and Dar

ferent? What Is the origin of thu two
words? O I-. E
Philadelphia, November 10, 1020
They mean the same, HolleBpent Is the
ancient term and Dardanelles the mere mod
ern term applied te the long, narrow strait
that connects the sea of Marmora with the
Aegean sen. separating Europe from Asia.
The namn Itelleapint. or sea of Halle waa
derived from a nuthlcal sterj abeu' He'l
n Grecian princess, falling Inte the strait
during an aerial flight which she whs making
and hence llelles-pentus The name Par.
danellca relates e nn ancient city called
Pardanle, "uated near 'he Hellespent. The
ancient fort of this city, lullt by Dar
danus was ca'lefl Dardanelles nnd flnallj
the name was applied te the entire strait.
Can Building Be Held?

Rlr Suppose a man lease, a let of ground

' the ground ta-cemi" financially embarrassed
, Can the building be held ae part of the

It must I assumed that before a man
erects a building en lenae-neni ground ne
would obtain n lonae for a sufficient num
ber of jeara te Justify his a-elnir te the
expense of putting up a building Such a
tease for a period exceeding three years,
would be promptly recorded by a prudent
man Then If the owner of the ground get
himself Inte financial difficulties and his
nrn,..nv was aeld by the sheriff, the e.
.an would be protected In hi rights and the
creditor could claim only the annual rent
during the continuance of the lease At
the expiration of the lease the building would
belong te the owner of the land. If a mun
erected a building relying en n lease which
was net ricerded, sale of the land by
the sheriff would work a forfeiture of the
lease and the building would gu te the pur
chaser of the ground.
