MUSICIAN TELLS OF FRENCH LIFE J. S. Evans Gives Contrasts Between Two Peoples ARTS HELD IN ESTEEM Journey is Also Made to Switzerland To enjoy instruction under some of. the best musical artists which France affords and at the same time to observe typical French life -was the experience of John Stark Evans, director of the 'orchestra and chorus of the University, who accompanied by Mrs. Evans, went to Europe this summer. At Fountainbleau, Mr. Evans at tended the American Conservatory of Music, founded by the French government, which provides a cab inet for the fostering of the fine arts. The school is attended by one hundred American musicians chosen by professors from the na tional conservatories. The instruc tion at the conservatory is of the very best, states Mr. Evans. Among the great artists found there is Isi dan Philippe. Old City Interesting Picturesque, olcf world Fountain bleau, located about 35 miles from Paris, is a town of about 15,000 in habitants. “It was really a great! privilege to be there and to see the i Teal French life,’’ said Mr. Evans. ! “The people are of the fine, j sturdy type which represents the1 best in the character of the French people. ’ ’ A chateau or palace which Mr. Evans thinks more lovely than that of Versailles is that which shelters the Conservatory. Despite the quaintness of Fountainbleau, it cannot be said to be provincial, in Mr. Evans’ opinion, because its lo-1 .cation enables it to receive con tacts with the outside world las many French cities do not. A striking dissimilarity in the ■attitude of French and American people toward music was observed by Mr. Evans. In place of the acorn felt by many Americans to wards music, a sort of homage is present with the French. Aritsts are Admired “In France the fact that you are an artist gains you entry into the finest of society,” said Mr. Evans. This respect is especially recorded Americans, whom the French people seem to admire and at the same time to scorn. Accord ing to Mr. Evans this scorn is ap parently due to the fact tjjat Amer icans are not always as prodigal with money as the French would like them to be. The French character is a great combination of the idealistic and the sordid, stated Mr. Evans. In the cafes the least tendency to ward unnecessary generosity is en couraged, but a more real respect is shown those who tip conservatively. Although the greater part of Mr. and Mrs. Evans’ trip was spent in Fountainbleau, they also visited Paris and Switzerland. In Paris they lived in the Latin quarter, so often the setting of plays and romance. LAW STUDENTS HEAR JUDGE COSHOW SPEAK (Continued from page one) sociation at Springfield.
