HALF Father Dominie of Mount Angel was the guest of honor at a luncheon given yesterday at the Portland hotel by the Musicians' club of this city. The af fair was a compliment to the composer Upon the playing of his overture "The Call of the West," by the Portland Symphony Orchestra for the first time at tha orchestra's last concert of the season Friday afternoon of last week. C. E. S. Wood. Frank Branch Riley and David H. Wilson were Introduced by president W. Oifford Nash to speak for the club, but when the guest of honor was introduced he modestly whispered to Toastmaster Nash to say for him, that "The overture expressed his scntrnients.'.' About 30 members of the club were present. In speaking of music, literature and art. Col. Wood said that art and beauty alone are eternal and survive. The beauty that Is part of what we call soul belongs to the Immortal part of man, whether he be material or spiritual. "Who cares nowadays in digging up the burled ruins of that which was once the glory of Greece," he said, "to bother about the ashes of the past; we search, rather, for the beautiful in poetry and art, and for tablets that reveal truth. Your mission in life, gentlemen, is the creation of the beau tiful and you are taking part In a permanent work of all time, I have known Father Dominic so many years that I could not say all that I should like to say In his presence. I could not utter one syllable of anything bad against him. 8uch is his modesty that. If I were to tell , him what I think of him; be would rather that I struck him a blow on the cheek." Mr. Riley gave an interesting sketch of the guest of honor, from the ,time he, at the age of 12, took up the study of music In his home in Switzerland, encouraged by his father, an editor and publisher. The Intention was, ha said, that young WaedenschwiUer was to be come a professional musician, but the . parish, priest urged that he rather be come a priest, and so he became a priest musician. Mr. Wilson gave a technical analysis of the overture "The Call of the West." Babcock Denies . . '" i . Published Story Salem, Or., May 6.
