Tribune reporter, Dr. Tarry said:
I have been nt work on my book of
lomn.i for the past sixteen years. It will
consist of 300 tunes In ono hundred dllter
ent metres with forty chants in forty
meters. Forty-flvo of tho chants are In
English. It will bo composed of new con
tributions to Welsh hymnology. Tho hook
will have two chief characteristics.
First, both notations, with hymns and
metrical chants will be In one book; sec
ond, it will bo unlquo In Its being the
largest collection of hymn tunes ever
published from ono pin. The immedlato
publication of tho book will entirely de
pend upon tho acceptance of the denomi
national book by those who havo been
approached. If favorable It may be Is
mied In tho course of the coming year.
The tunes will rr.r-lnly be full of Welih
rliaracteri&tlcs expressive of that re
llglous fervor which characterizes Welh
congregational slnplng. The aim of tho
book is not to dethrone any ether denom
inational book, but simply aims to bo a
national supplen ent bcok.
In order to moke this book ns truly na
tional ns possible, consistent with tho
title, "Tho National Hymn Tunes of
Wales,' I havo been fortunate In scour
ing original hymns as well ns translations
from all tho best hymnologlsts of Wales
of nil denominations, tho Episcopal,

In the book Is a greater variety of sub
jects for hymns many of which are not
found In previous hjmn books.
