SATURDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TEIJEGRAJPHI NOVEMBER 4, 1916.
IGADSKI PROGRAM j
ON HIGH PLANE
;Musically Planned to Suit Any
Real Concert Goer's
Taste
I _ (By JOHN W. PHILLIPS.)
It is one thing to listen to music, j
| but quite another thing to hear it.
I Only a small percentage of people,
. read Browning and fewer understand i
| him. He is looked upon as a high- |
I brow in literature—as Richard Strauss i
and Debussy are In music. The popu- '
; lar song has its place, and its admir- !
ers are many. Kastime has shot its j
\ bolt, but still has its admirers, and
if we accused these latter as having .
for their standard in literature, "The i
. Life of Jesse James," they would get i
i mightily peeved. Yet Nick Carter and i
Jesse James in literature are on a par
| with ragtime in music— and the pop- j
ular fiction is on an intellectual par)
| with the popular song. Good music
then, is equal to good literature; and j
j it is good to note the increasing appre- j
ciatlon of the best in music by Harris- '
burg's concertgoers. By listening in- j
gently and intelligently, and keeping|
j everlastingly at it, listening becomes i
! actual hearing—hearing becomes un
| derstanding—understanding becomes
pleasure and inspiration.
Now it takes backbone, not wish-1
bone, to do this. You can wish all you
' like, without avail; but if persistance
is the watchword: musical growth
! and appreciation is bound to be the
reward. Surely everyone who heard
Madame Gadski last evening at the
! Orpheum, found one or more offerings
'to their liking. Her program was in
teresting, on a high plane, musically,
and planned to suit any real concert -
; goer's taste. One might take issue i
with the niadame on her vocal meth
od, but her style and artistry are be
yond question. She has a magnificent
1 presence, and a certain nobility of
poise and tone, accorded to very few
artists. She was, of course superb in
the German songs, although we had
: expected a little more verve in Schu
mann's "Widmung." The Franz song,
"Im Herbst," was exquisitely sung,
and the Brahm's number to be one of
I the best of the evening. The tone col
or and dramatic emphasis were em
ployed with fine effect, and the au-
I dience. with keen discrimination de
manded it over again. Schubert's I
i "Hark. Hark, the Lark." also had to j
I be repeated. The "Erlkoenig" closed j
the German group, but the singer af- i
ter several recalls, sang very sweetly j
| "Long, Long Ago."
The English group contained six |
songs. Cadman's song did not add i
any value to the program whatever, i
"Drowsy Poppies" is a little gem, and |
it was exceedingly well sung. The i
"Little Gray Dove," was redemanded. i
; Francis Moore's "Sing Song" is a small |
song, but very charming. It. was re- I
j peated. "The Morning Hymn" by |
George Henschel is always good, and I
| Madame Gadski gave it with fine
' breadth and power. She sang as en
core a clever little bit, "The Cuckoo
Clock," and good naturedly sang it
again.
Her last number was large, "Isolde's
Love-Death." from Wagner's "Tristan
and Isolde." Madame Gadski is en
dowed with all the gifts necessary for
the singing of Wagner's music. She is
of heroic mold and delivers the music
, with convincing directness and power.
She, of course, was compelled to sing
again, and added twice,for good meas
ure, the wonderful "Brunnhilde's Bat
, tie Cry" from "Die Walkure." She is
essentially a Wagnerian singer, and in
this it would be difficult to find her
! equal.
Francis Moore was the very able
accompanist, and also appeared to
decided advantage in piano solos. The
I Schumann "Romance" had all the
dreamy, poetical fancy that Schumann
demands, yet the melody was firm,
j well sustained and of a beautiful sing
ing quality. The vigorous • "Prelude"
by Rachmaninoff, was handled with
marked crispness and power. After
several recalls he played with spark
ling clarity and lightness. Mendels
sohn's "Spinning Song." Ills other j
number was "La Campanella," by j
Liszt. He played this at good tempo, j
j and preserved all points of contrasts i
i easily and clearly. He responded with j
a well-known Raff number.
HUNDREDS MARCH
IN GREAT PAGEANT
[Continued From First Page]
with the faculty was Miss Katharine
llammelbaugh, the Tech secretary.!
J She had the distinction of being the<
: only lady in the Tech line.
Some Classes!
j J. Grant Koons, with Julius Yoffee I
and Sidney Kay as aids, lead the dele- I
gation of students by classes. The
| class of 1917 sported canes, with I
orange and black streamers, repre- j
I senting the class colors. Gray arm!
bands wtth maroon 1917 completed
i the color scheme of the upper-class
! men. Gordon Holland and Harry j
Miller carried a class banner of blue !
and gold, nine feet wide and four feet I
hiqh. In the center were the numer
als "1918." Their classmates wore
Maroon caps with gray numerals.
The second-year lads also carried
canes with American flags and wore
rosettes of African brown and gold.'
Half of the class were attired in white I
I duck hats with "1919" on the front.'
The remainder wore caps, gray in j
; color, with Maroon "T's." The Enola
band of 30 pieces headed the!
Freshman contingent. The first-year 1
lads displayed class colors "cap-a
pie." Green prevailed. They wore
green caps, and aprons of a like color.
Two hundred of these verdant youths
were in the procession.
The Messages
The marching, cheering and sing-1
ing of the Tech procession met with,
much favorable comment along the !
■ Hne of march. All along the line were :
■ epigrammaUcal sayings on banners \
j that attracted much attention. One
j quandary asked was: "Why Is the;
' High School Building Like the United
i States Army?" Answer—"Because It!
Is Too Small." Other banners read, i
; "One More Room at Tech and Then j
No More Room." "Fifty Graduates
Out, 215 Freshmen In." "What's the'
i Matter With Harrisburg? Nothing,
I But the High School." "A Vote for
| the Loan Is a Vote For Progress." "A
Crowded School Means a Crowded
! Mind."
The Message of the Marchers
Tech students did more than their
share to help their fellow students at
Central. Both schools tried to out
door each other in originality of de
sign in banners and in queer effects in
costumes.
Blue and gray predominated in
Central's color while the Maroon and
Gray was the predominate color in
Tech's secUon. And how the young
sters drilled in the rain as they tramp
ed along.
Through the central section of town
and then across the Mulberry street
bridge to the Hill the long procession
wound and then into the Square again
to dismiss.
"Tramp-tramp-tramp!"
Three thousand youthful shoes tap-1
ped out the mute appeal for "votes
votes-votes!" more emphatically than I
; the angry stamp of elder's foot.

"A LAST MESSAGE"-THE OUTLOOK'S
ADVICE TO AMER
THE American people are about to i
answei a question second in im
portance only to that which their |
forebears answered in 1360 by the
election of Abraham Lincoln, 'mis is
our last word to them on the issues
Involved.
There come In the life of nations, as
in the lives of individuals, occasions
when character is tested by some pri- I
mary question of duty. In such crises i
party ties, acquired prejudices, selfish !
interests, considerations of personal |
safety, become impertinences. Such, ;
in the estimation of The Outlook, is i
the present crisis.
The Declaration of Independence af- :
firms that the Creator has endowed all i
men vfith certain unalienable rights; ;
that among these are life, liberty and l
the pursuit of happiness; that to se- j
cure tnese rights governments are in- |
stituted among men. Is this true? Do i
governments exist for this purpose'.' ;
Are they Just only as they fulfill this
purpose'.' And, if this fundamental j
principle Is true, what does it demand '
of tnt American people to-day?
Some thousands of Americans havo '
gone to Mexico to make it their home. I
it is not charged against them that j
they have violated Mexican laws, re
sisted Mexican processes of law, or
conspired against such government as
Mexico possesses. Is it the duty of
the American government to protect
their unalh liable rights to life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness'.'
Thc v.sands of Americans travel every i
year upon the ocean. Is it the duty!
of tlio American government to pro- !
tect tlieir unalienable rights of life, '
liberty and the pursuit of happiness
upon the ocean, the world's highway? i
Many thousands of immigrants have
come to this country from the Old
World that they might here find their
lights to life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness secure. Have they any
interest in the life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness of their fathers
and brothers, their mothers and sisters
and friends, whom they have left in
the old World, where now those rights
are ruthlessly invaded by war?
Not all the nations are engaged in
this war. Not all the citizens of the
nations engaged are taking part in the
war. Have the citizens of neutral na
tions, have the noncombatants in the
warring nations, any rights to life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness?
The founders of this nation dedi
cated their lives, their fortunes and
their sacred honor in support of the
declaration that life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness are unalienable
rights. Is there any reason why the
citizens of this nation should have and
should express any interest in or sym
pathy with those members of other
neutral nations and those noncomba
tants in all nations whose unalienable
rights are violated by open, flagrant
and continuous disregard of inter
national law?
America's liberty is an inheritance
from the past—-pre-eminently front
England and France. Now that the
rights to life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness of these nations, our
spiritual ancestors, are assailed, is
there any reason why we, their de
scendants, should express to them our
interest in their struggle and our
hopes for their success?

I I< ranee and Italy—are fighting in or
der that government of the people, by
| the people and for the people shall not
perish from the earth. Is there any
teason why we should sincerely wish
and fervently pray that they may se
cure tor their countries those liberties
! which we fondly hope we have secured
I tor ourselves?
; To these questions President Wilson
| aild his administration have replied,
emphatically, "No." Mr. Wilson has
I refused to give protection to American
I citizens in Mexico, and officially ad
| vised them to flee, leaving their homes
Ito be ravaged, their property de
[stroyed and their loyal employes mas
-1 sacred. He has furnished no protec
; tion to travelers on the ocean. Ho
| has advised all American citizens,
i whether foreign-born or native-born,
jto be neutral In sympathy as well as
In act, and thus has counseled the
; forelgn-liorn to be Indifferent to the
• liberties and the lives of the families
and friends whom they have left In
! the Old World. He has refused to
make any protest against the flagrant
| breach of treaty, to which America
was a party, any protest against the
I flagrant violation of international law
, by war waged against noncombatants,
and declined or failed to take any ae
j tion in response to the delegation of
| Belgians who presented a report of
these warlike barbarities. And he has
! declared once and again that America
| has no concern with the causes and
| objects ol' this war, no interest to as-
I certain what they are. When, a few
j days ago, an American naval vessel
| f-tood by while American men and
i women were lowered into small boats
j just beyond the neutral waters of
I America, and the passenger ship on
which they had been traveling was
j sent to the bottom bjj a German sub
marine, this American naval vessel
. furnished an object lesson of the spirit
| which the present administration de
j sires to see exemplified by the Ameri
can people. Alike by official decla-
I rations and by public acts It frankly
i avows the desire that we should main
tain an attitude of indifference, care
ful only to protect our own present
I safety and seek out of a world calamltv
| some increase of our future comnier
' cial prosperity.
We wish to see America inspired by
a very different spirit and resolved
| upon a very different policy. We be
lieve in the America which under
Monroe notified the Holy Alliance of
Europe that any attempt to interfere
| with free Institutions on the Western
] Continent would be regarded as an un
friendly act. We believe in the Amer
ica which in 1812 attacked England,
mistress of the seas, for the purpose of
winning the right of Americans to
travel unhindered and unafraid upon
1 the world's highway. We believe in
the America which, as soon as that
war was ended, fought the Algerian
I nirates and forever took the Medi
terranean out of the war zone. We
believe in the America which highly
I resolved that popular government
! should not perish from the earth and
i counted no sacrifice too great to se
jcure for all peoples under Its flag the
unalienable rights affirmed In the Dec
laration of Independence. We believe
in the America which could not endure
to see a sixteenth century despotism
pressing a nineteenth century people
, and fought the Spanish War to set its
neighbors free. We believe in an
America stiong enough, wise enough
i.nd chivalrlc enough to preserve for
the Philippine people their unalien
able rights to life, liberty and the pur
suit of happiness until they have be
come strong enough, wise enough and
chivalrlc enough io protect those
rights themselves. We believe that
the greatest dangers to this country
have come from its sometimes lapsing
into a timid, vacillating and selfish
policy, as it did under Buchanan, and
that Its greutest safety has come from
its adoption of a courageous, consist
ent and heroic policy, as It did under
Washington. Monroe anil Lincoln.
Six months ngo Mr. Wilson, speak
ing in Washington at the convention
of the league to Enforce Peace, said
of the European war:
"With its causes and its objects we
ere not concerned. The secure foun
tains from which its stupendous flood
has burst forth we are not Interested
to search for or explore."
We advise those who agree wtth this
sentiment and all that it involves to
vote for Mr. Wilson.
In Its issue for October 6, 1915, The
Outlook said:
I "The presidential Issue for 1916 Is!
very simple. It is not the tariff. It is
| not finance It Is not the relation of
| capital to labor. It is not the regu
lation of the trusts. It Is the question
of national defense. Shall our citizens
I be protected abroad and our country
I protected at home?"
We advise those to vote for Mr.
Hughes who agree with The Outlook
that it is the duty of America to pro
tect our citizens übroad from foreign
rggression and our citizens at home
from domestic oppression, and who
sympathize with all peoples in all
lands who are struggling to maintain
for themselves and their children the
| fundamental rights to life, liberty and
j the pursuit of happiness, for which
governments are instituted among
! men.-—The Outlook.
