Carrie B. Adams, who will direct the, com munity singr to be held next Wed nesday evening at the armory, as part' of "Music Week," some peo ple are Just born' musical and ther can't help it. And while some folks achieve v music, , and others have - music: thrust " upon them, in her case, she was just musical from the start ' At, the age of. four years; she' was singing such old time songs as. M want to ne an Angei," ana Tm Climbing up ZionXULV learned at Ebnexer Sunday school. Just a mile from where she lived n the country near Oxford, Ohio. 1 At the age of six years, Bhe be gan- taking lessons . on' an old style melodian; but generally hao her- lessons learned ' before : the music teacher' was- out erf sight, and didn't have to practice any. At the age of seven at a musical convention directed: by H.' R. Palmer,- she sang- and- committed to memory the ''Gloria" from' Mo zart's. Twelfth . Mass and "The Heavens Are Telling," from "The Creation," by, Haydn. . Being of a Republican family, at the age of eight years she bei came a member of a Republican Glee' club, singing for General Grant 'in the) presidential cam paign. At the age of 11 years, she had mastered Root's "Curri culum'" then used by all' music teachers. At the age of 13 roars. Mrs. Adams attended the Grand Prairie Seminary, at- Onarga,r III., Where her folks had moved. At this age she committed-, to memory piano studies from Czerny, Pertini, Cle ment and Heller, and can still play them from memory. At the age of 14, the family having moved to Paris, 111., Mrs. Adams took charge of . the choir ot the First Methodist church of that city. At -this age, she was accompanist on the piano for all the leading home talent entertain ments, and thia included the stan dard oratorios. And it . was at this age that Mrs. Adams began her career as pianist for home tal ent entertainments. At the age of 16, Mrs. Adams wrote her first anthem which was shortly ' afterward published. About-that time in her early mu sical career she studied and com mitted to . memory Mozart's "Twelfth Masa."; At 17 she became director of j the Philharmonic society of Paris; 111., taking up the study of the great .music masters, and occas ionally directing the presentation of the standard oratorios in sur rounding? cities. When about 18 years of age, she took part in" the presentation of "Pinafore," "Pirates of Pen zance,' Trialf by Jury.' and oth er Gilbert & Sullivan comic op eras,' singing the leading contral to roles. ? V "" ' Following her marriage at the age of 21, Mrs. Adams moved to Terre .Haute, Ind., where she was at once elected organist of the largest organ in the city, and a few years later, director of the leading oratorio society ot that city of 50,000 at that time.. v It was during her first years in Terre Haute that . the : .'operetta "The National Flower," was com posed and presented . extensivel y, She also served seven years a dl rector of ' music : for : the : Indiana State normal school, at Terre Haute. . -. - - As' a pipe organlsVMrs. Adams was engaged throughout Indiana land' Illinois- in giving special-re citals, for the dedication ot new pipe organs. In. addition to. her other work of directing, large mu sical societies 'in Terre Haute, she directed and organized for a num ber of years amale ehorus com posed of students from the Rose Polytechnic institute. f. iJShe had tha honor of being the first woman In the United States o direct the rMessiah." by Han del, Continuln g- in her composing work, her .various anthem books and sacred, songs became known throughout the country, until now her publishers estimate that fully 40,000 choirs- are using' her music every Sunday. . She has written more cantatas and anthems than any rXmertean writer and now has another anthem book and several .sacred songs in the hands of .her composers- ; - ttr.v ' One of her latest publications that Is being1 received with .espec ial favor is "Old , Cabin Home Minstrels," a book containing all the old time ' plantation ' songs, many of . which - had never been set to music or published. Her patriotic school operetta- "Under the Stars ani .Stripes?' published by the W311is Puhllshing company of Cinclnnatlr,la one ot the moat popular ot her school publications of which there are a number. ! It was during the war that Mrs. Adams responded to the. call; of the government for those" who could take charge and direct com munity singing. - By her energettc manner of : directing and', sincere enthusiasm, she succeeded in che ating a community singing tntPr est where others had failed. As a composer of hundreds- of songs, operettas and cantatas, Mrs. Adams stands alone among musicians from the fact that for all her compositions, ' she writes her own cherds. During the past 15 years in Indiana, before com ing to Portland in 1920, Mrs. Adams was in- demand during summer month! as a director of music in county Institutes for teachers. - As a writer of short stories, -Mrs. Adams also enjoys the dis tinction as a regular contributor to Terre Haute, papers and as a regular contributor to a magazine "The Spectator" published In In diana. ' At present MrsV Adams devotes the greater part of her time tc composing and now has under headway an operetta " especially for school use, entitled, "See Am erica first." Wednesday noon, Mr. and Mrs. Adams will be guest3 of thj Ro tary club and in the evening- she will direct the community sing- at the armory!; '. : .. .
