3 SOCIETY NEWS OF THE WEEK
THE following article by
Ruthyn Turney, director of
music at Chemawa, and
one of the best-known musicians,
and musical historians on the
coast, is . of special interest and
Importance. Mr, Turneyl who is
a. member of tb'e Salem; Symph
ony orchestra, has played, in some
of the leading orchestras in the
country. Including thai of Boston.
And. by the way. he has had a
bit of worth-while newspaper ex
perience, which is rerealed in his
writings:
'"It is only about an inch from
the sublime to the ridiculous, a
similar distance from our boasted
ctTilixation to savagery from
Twentieth century enlightenment
to the tactics of the dark ages.
Let anyone who doubts the above
peruse the history of the world,
since 1114. Does not a review
of the history of the world during
recent- years pro fa that It be
hooves all of us who value cul
tural things to cherish them?
Everything which tends to edu:
eate and refine the people of a!
community should be fosterfed
and cared for with the utmost
fidelity and solicitude. From the
earliest ares of which we have
record, music has had its place in
the schemes of all cultural leaders
and advanced thinkers. Compos
ers and. producing artists have
been recognized as benefactors of
all whose environments made pos
sible the benefits cf their art. To
make a people better it Is neces
sary that something of a high or
der shall be afforded the mind
as mental toniCj or diet. ' As reo
ple think so are they. It is folly
to expect lofty thoughts to eman
ate from minds which dwelt upon
that which is coarse or debased
it is as to expect the impos
sible, the miraculous. It will not
come to pass.
"We have in Salem the making
of a symphony orchestra which
will in due season, if backed up' culture
by the public, become of inesti
mable value to the citizens of the
capital city. The attendance at
Its concerts by those of lender
years, of the school age, will as
sist. in large measure in instilling
in youth a love of the beautiful,
without which there can be no
civilization in the truest sense.
Everything of value has its price
and by paying the price the cit
izens of Salem can ccntnue within
their midst an organization the
Kvalue of which from the begin
ning will be inestimable, but
which will increase each addi
tional year of its existence. The
price our people must pay is
ridiculously small In comparison
with the large value -they will
receive the returns on the in
vestment Will be a thousand-fold!
The price ' to the general public
is patronage just patronage at
the .concerts to be given, and the
fees 1 necessary to patronage will
be very small in comparison with
what is received. . Will our peo
ple sustain the Symphony? We
hope so. We believe they will." !
"An organization of this char-1
acter if properly put forth tand
advertized, cannot fail to prove
one of our city's greatest assets,
as it will draw to our environs
'home-seekers of both wealth and
a class of citizenry de
sired by any worth-while com
munity. The Commercial club of
Salem would do well to back the
orchestra, as it would afford one
of the very best possible features
for advertisement. Will the

"The people cf Salem and the
immediate surrounding section
should not lce sight of the fact
that our city is the capital of
great state, and those abroad nat
urally expect to flind in a capital
city all movements for education
and refinement supported to the I
utmost. It is a city of law mak
ing and law giving, hence should
be in all respects a populace sup
porting both literature and art.
Confucious, centuries before
Jesus Christ, said, in effect, "If
you would know if a people be
well groomed, examine the music
they practice." He spoke wisely.
What human gods were Haydn,
Mozart and Beethoven! Their of
ferings may be ours almost for
the asking.' What a travesty up
on things refining and cultural
that for several years "King Jazz"
has not alone been endured, but
was fed at the public crib! The
old masters appealed to heart
and mind, but "Jazz" never rose
above an appeal to our heels.
"Now let lis give our energies
our support, 'morally and mater
ially, to our symphony orchestra
it will pay us well in many
ways. Salem is fortunate enough
to have musicians of talent in the
orchestra, and doubly fortunate
in having in Dr. John R. Sites an
experienced "musician who has
proved himself an orchestral con
ductor of unusual ability a nrst
rank conductor! Let our readers
resolve at least to attend the first
concert of the Salem Symphony
Orchestra this season (December
6th). and it will follow as the
night the day that they will be
come regular attendants at the
concerts that are to follow."
