Let Organ Recitals Go On,
Say Patrons.
Mimic Held Worth While Whether
It Pays Expense or Jiot.
THE first of the second series of
Sunday afternoon pipe organ re
citals, in the Auditorium for the pres
ent season was given there yesterday,
and 444 persons walked through the
rain to hear it.
There have been nine of these re
citals this season, with an average of
about 758 paid admissions. About
1115 paid admissions would pay ex
penses, but the opinion is gaining
ground among these concert patrons
that these events should be continued
in the interest of public musical edu
cation, whether the concerts pay ex
penses or not. Dr. Jonah B. Wise of
Temple Beth Isreal has said that It
was highly satisfactory that an aver
age of 800 people attended and paid
their way to these organ recitals
Sunday afternoons.
Yesterday afternoon the organist
was Mrs. Gladys Morgan Farmer, or
ganist of the First Methodist Episco
pal church, assisted by members of
the Chaminade vocal trio, Mrs. Mity
lene Fraker Stites, Mrs. Miles Delwin
Warren and Mrs. Edgar Allen Dens
more. Mrs. Farmer played with fine
style and registration organ numbers
by Kinder, Stebbins, Frysinger, Kul
lak, Kevin and Bonnet, selections that
showed graceful musical coloring.
The Chaminade" trio sang in cul
tured, finely expressive fashion, and
their voices blended charmingly. They
sang several delightful numbers,
amonsr them being "Thistle Down"
(Rusher), "Slumber Sea" (Chadwick).
and "Chit Chat" as an extra offering.
Applause was cordial.
The new system of request numbers
as organ solos came into force yester
day, and the first received was from
Mayor Baker, whose choice, of popu
lar music was "For, I'm Forever
Blowing Bubbles," which Mrs. Farm
er played, and it was received with
rousing applause. The key-desk of
the Auditorium pipe organ yesterday
was moved one foot higher than
usual, so that the audience could see
more easily what the organist Is
doing.
