Why La Orange Should
BE THANKFUL
The question may be asked, "what La
Grande has to be thankful for?". That
may be easily answered. La Grande has
been blessed with so many good things
since last Tnanksgiving that they can
scarcely be enumerated.
Beginning with the largest blessing, we
may be tnankful that the county seat is
located here. As a result there have
been many fine residences erected during
the past twelve months, and new business
blocks have arisen. Let us be thankful
for these. Let us not forget our blocks of
splendid cement sidewalks both in the
business and residence districts. Let us

HE13HBORS400D CLUB RHCEPTION.
Tre music lovers of La Grande were
given a rare treat last evening through
ut ;f . Mrr M.iinrw, The
event be:ng the fi.-st of the season's open
m let'ngs given by the Neighborhood Club.
Mrs Branholt. to whom is due much of
:he euccats of the entertainment, gave a
very interesting talk on Russian com
pters and their music.
The first number on the program was
a duet, "Folk Melodies" by Mrs. Lyle and
Mrs. Laughlin, which they rendered In a
most pleasing manner. Other numbers
followed which were equally as good.
The music was excellent and highly ap
preciated by those present A splendid
social, as well as musicia! success re
warded the members of this prominent
club. Punch and wafers were served in
the reception hall. .
ADDRESS BY MRS. BRENHOLT
; The work of the Neighborhood Club
this year follows the outlines given by
the Bay View Study course. The sub-
j it being Russian and Japan we , come
today to tie study of the Russian com
pojjrs and thair work.
Since 'the proper study of mankind 'is
man" the prjpar study of musicians must
be mus e. So wi have asked you to come
this evening to enjoy wth us the music
of the Russian masters.
All the tr bos of the Slavoman race
have numerous popular folk songs and
Russian like the anc ent Slav loves song
and mus e. Some philologists claim that
Russia has the largest collection of these
popular airs of any European nation.
They have songs for war, for love, for
festivals and for all occasions of family
rejoicing, the most papular of these are
remarkable for their plaintive melancholy
and tenderness. They have preserved
the ancient rhythm as well as the an
cient instrumj.its with 'which to ccomp
any their songs. i .. , !( .
"As character is known to be influenced
by the physicial geography of a country
so a'si art' the primitive arts. , The
monotony ar.d length of the old epics ar
counterparts of the physical formation of
Russia and the union key in which most
draarinass of that vast territory.
These old; sngs , jre the aristocracy
of Russian music and from them have
c?m3 the folk sangs, the church music
and the modern opera.
Before t.ia time of Catherine It all
church music was sung in unison. She
established an institution in St Peters
burg for the training of voices for the
Imperial Ciupel. Bass voices were in
demand, the ages ranging from seven to
forty years, and these singers were not
oily liberally paid, but when worn out
were psnsionl One test of requisite
strength was to place the singer in a
room and if he succeeded in breaking
the glass w:tii his voice he was accepted.
Among the famous composes who have
helped to mike Russia's musical reputa
tion what It is, we may notice a few fam
iliar names. Glinka may be considered
the founder of Russian musical culture as
he was the first to give form and direc
tion to the scittering national airs. He
was also the first to produce an ' opera
with both the subject and music Russian.
After his work there was a vigorous
growth in musical culture in Russia. Fol
lowing Glinka came Rubenstein, a Jew by
birth, a German by education and Russian
by adoption and sympathy. By his gen
ius ha raised the fame of Russia music to
a height it had never reached before, and
eid much for the advancement of musiea!
education by establishing schools and
conservatories throughout Russia. For
twenty-eight years he devoted the pro
ceeds of his charite concerts, amounting
to about a quarter of a million, to good
works. In 1812 ha v'sited America and
made most mem. r.bi tvur of tn
United States being received everywhere
be thankful for the great harvest Just
completed in Grande Ronde valley. Let
u be thankful that we do not live n
Wisconsin, or the other snowbound north
em states, and while we may not enjoy
the skift of snow this day, let us be
thankful that it is no worse. Let us re
turn thanks for the harmony that has ex
isted in almost every instance in the city
and county government; and for the har
mony between the religious and social or
ganizations. Let us forget our trivial
troubles and return thanks that we are
all alive and residents of the state of
Oregon,
with enthusiasm. His later years were
spent in Russia crowned with many
henors. He Spent his time teaching and
giving concerts in the principal cities of
Europe. He was a player of masterful
moods and possessed a delightfully ex
pressive toneh.' His integrity as a man.
his purity of character, his enthusiasm for
his art and the fact that he never, broke
his word, made his death at the compara
tively early age of sixty-four a calamity
to the world of music.
, Tschaikowsky, a pupil of Rubenstein's
! w-.I..;i th; rr" mtr of Rus
sian music and he has preserved in his
compositions the old national airs and
their wild, wierd strains run throughout
his works.
Chopin has added greatly to Russia's
musical fame and his gentle rapturous
music is beloved wherever known. Of
Polish French descent he combined the
delicate finish of the artist with the self
respect and dignity of the aristocrat
Although his works All only a few slender
volumes, they stand unrivalled for indi
viduality of etyle, combining intensity of
feeling with the highest finish.
Russia claims many others of lesser
fame as composers and shares with Po
land the greatest living pianist Pader-
ewski. In the program this evening we
have endeavored to have tbe best of
Russia's composers represented beginning
with a collection of the aatient folk tongs.
