i Tells of Salem Days
i
L" (In the April number of the
Willamette Alumnus, under the
beading, "A Freihman There
Was," Prof. Frederic S. Dunn of
the University of Oregon gives
come well told recollections of his
-old days at Willamette university.
iMany Salem people remember
Prof. Dunn when he was on the
faculty of the Willamette univer
sity. Following la the article:)
When I resigned my position on
the Faculty during the summer of
1898 I would not -have believed It
r if tome one Bad prophesied the
few opportunities I would there-
v after have- of expressing my un
-xiroken allegiance to Old WHIam

.craved all ' these Intervening

through the kindly courtesy of The
-" .Alumnus, and I now find" myself
t Indulging- the delightful" sensation:
1 as Of " once more'irtandlng- ou lbfr
assembly platform, to greet my
i new and old friends of the Faculty
and my altogether new friends of
the Student Body.'
The" same bid hall! where the
seats and desks used to be as
''scarred and overcarved as Whitti
er's old school house on the Merri-
mac the old hall, which we of the
' Faculty were wont to enter with
" beating hearts every April Fool's
. day. For we used to be reminded
of that day of all days in the col
lege calendar. We had learned to
''"look forward to it somewhat be
seechingly. If YOU had been a
member of the Faculty in those
jdays, what would YOU have
thought on coming into chapel one
fine, large April Fool's Day to find
that old skeleton from Professor
, Cochran's laboratory suspended
by one of his buttonholes from the pered loudly enough for us
chandelier hook la the center of
the ceiling?
I wonder where Old Bones U
now! Gone, Is he? Well, he mast
have been literally worn out, for
he used to take unearthly excur
sions. And the worst of it was, on
this particular ramble he had no
return ticket- We couldn't get
him down and he hung there grim
ly grnesomely swaying with an
occasional whiff of breeze from an
oDen door, grinning at the
damned and undamned lalik
hung there for a week, for Ches
ter Murphy or Bert Haney or
iome other wag of like pre-movie-
day heroism, had taken the only
.adder of any length and cut it up
into kindling wood", I guess.
And one other April 1st, the
grand march was turned wrong
side out. You know, in those days
the "grave and reverend seniors"
were permitted to sit way in the
back, where they could write notes
and chew gum all they pleased,
whereas the .poor little Freshies
we're obliged to sit 03 the front
seats, right under the sound of
the gavel, where they did not dare
even wink. I do not know whether
or not that Js atUl your practice, (
for you all look alike to me. When
the signal for dismissal was given.
the seniors weald lead the march,
double file, forward, up the central
aisle, then separate into single
files, passing hack around the out
er aisle;" then they met again ' in
the back, then forward again, sep
arating again, and this time pas
sing out through opposite doors
Into the wings of the building. But
on this particular day, If you fol
low me, these seniors, our trus
ties, think of it, made a break for
freedom. They turned their backs,
marched in the other direction
from the rostrum, separated,
marching forward around the
sides, then meeting in front of the
rostrum, finally passing on down
the center aisle and out through
the back door on to the campus
Such an innocent prank, you will
say, yet almost appalling in that
Puritanic era, as a breach of long
established tradition. President
Hawley stood there as grave and
dignified as Fabius Cunctator, and.

(Editor's Note--Just at this
time I would like to call your at
tention to a very important event
that will soon be upon us, a week
that should bo very much thought
of by all of us, and all mothers
, tnd fathers as well as teachers
snould begin' now to prepare for
this geat occasion. This week is

cles, and anyone desiring any help
: In preparation for the celebration
of Music Week can secure same by
' wuting the Music editor of The
Statesman.
As announced last week we will
I' now take up the subject of nota
tion, instruments and the forma
tion of .Masses. )
r Chapter Four
Early Mss. give us some . very
interesting character studies in no-
'., tation, and it was not until about
the eighth century that music
characters took on. form, consist
ing of dashes and points for single
tone passages, leaning strokes for
ascending, and crooks for de
scending, and, of course, being
gnatly varied by the Individual of
his lime. Then, in the tenth cen
tury the first great advance oc
ru.ed when writers began to use
ruiied when writers began to use
cate given tones or pitches, and so,
finally, from this developed "a
staff" consisting of four and some
times more lines. And each line
inou-ated a certain letter. It is a
noteworthy fact that our modern
treble and base staffs came from
a great staff consisting of eleven
lines from which finally the mid
dle line was omitted. Guido Is
considered the originator of the
four line staff.
At about this same time tones
began to take on letter names, and
though the Greek system jised
twenty-four letters of their alpha
bet, shortly after the seventh cen
tury B. C. only fifteen letters of
the Latin were used (A to P) to
give names of the tones of two
ctaves. nevertheless, this system
fid not mean that A, was always
111 the same position, as it is in
iur modern music, but was used
as a starting point, the trend be
ing upward. The reader may be
Interested. In knowing that letter
notation was first applied to in
struments, particularly the organ,
and not to song.
As regards instruments of this
period, little is known of the pro
gress made before 1100, although
ancient forms, both Greek and;
Jtor.ian, were in use. We have
little information of any improve
ment during this time, with one
possible exception, the organ,
which dates back as far as the
fourth century and was very com
mon in Spain In 450. The ancient
operation of compressing air by
water In organs, was early replaced
by bellows, and In the year 950,
we read of the fact that seventy
men acted as blowers at Win
chester Cathedral. We are also
informed that the number of pipes
used varied from eight to four
hundred, from the fourth to the
tenth century, and the organ was
used exclusively In supporting
Gregorian music. There waa no
wusic written special) for the or-,
gan until after the fourteenth
century.
As noted in last week's con
tribution, the Catholic Liturgy
was completed in the year 600.
The Mass center of the Catholic
system of worship. The Masses
vary according to the uses that
ihey are put to, they include
Solemn High Mass, Low Mass, Re
quiem Mass, , etc. One must not
confuse the word "Mass" as ap
plied to a musical composition or
the Eucharistic office, as, for in
stance, Beethoven's ""Mass in. D",
and to quote Edward Dickenson
in his "The Study of The History
of Music," a Mass is simply a part
of the larger office of worship
called by the same name, and con
sists of the Kyrle, Gloria, Credo,
Sanctus, Benedictus, and Agnus
Dei that is, the portions -that are
sung by the choir and do not
change from day to day.
Many portions of the Catholic
Liturgic chant are now sung by
the choir to musical settings, by
modern composers, whereas the
words uttered by the priest at the
alter, and certain psalms and re
sponses which are sung by the
choir are chanted in the ancient
melodies, but the reader must re
member that the early Roman
chant contained only one element
of music, which was melody, and
there was no harmony. And when
the organ first came into use, only
the notes which the voices sang
were played. Nevertheless, the
Liturgic chant is as ancient as the
Liturgy itself.
The use of modern music In the
Mass has had a tendency to over
shadow a great number of beau
tiful Catholic chants, and a point
to remember is that in the chant
music is secondary to text rhythm
this brings us to the fact that the
Gregorian period and the modes
eminating therefrom, which con
sisted of eight or ten modal scales,
was the basis of all medieval
music up to the year 1600.
Several centuries were spent in
the process of notation, and it is
utterly impossible to trace the
actual beginning of chant melo
dies, and the subject has been a
matter of debate among all his
torians in that notation and its
form was so entirely different in
different localities. It is well to
note here that the Gregorian style
of music is the only one author
ized In the Roman church al
though some other forms are in
use, and It la noted that the
Gregorian style and Greek music
were a derivative of poetic speech.
A great deal more could be writ
ten on this-subject but time and
space forbid,' nevertheless the Edi
tor will be glad to answer any
questions that may arise in the
reader's mind pertaining to the
subject matter just set forth.
This brings us now up to a very
interesting point In the progress
of the growth of music, and this
Is called the Netherlander period,
and is really the beginning of a
concrete form of musical art,
which history tells us began about
the 14th century. The reader will
find this a very Interesting period
to study as it contains very Taln-i
able Information, for even though:
u is caned the period of the
Netherlander this writer choos-l
es to call it the period of "the be
ginning of the masters." . ;

of course." Professor Matthews
hadn't cracked a smile as far as I
could see . through his beard.
though his eyes were snapping.
But there I was, with my hand on
my mouth, sniggering like amy
schoolboy. I shouldn't wonder If
the President thought I had been
privy to the conspiracy.
I must have been a poor excuse
for a faculty man In those days,
for I distinctly recall another April
Fool's Day when President Hawley
requested me to stay daring the
noon recess and see that no tricks
were played during the Interim.'
Well, what do you think? Clar
ence Bishop stole the clapper of
the bell almost from under my
very nose. Now, my dear friends
of the student body, you will not
abuse my confidence, I am sure.
I have given you these hints pure
ly from a reminiscent standpoint,
and If you should vilely think to
sully this happy age of civilization
by repeating those deeds of bar
barism this new Faculty might not
be so lenient as were we (sic).
Yes, this' is the same old hall.
where Sara Nourse Brown-Savage's
orators would often declaim for
us,. "Ye crags and peaks, I'm
pleased to meet you. Ye call me
chief but 'I'm, only a dishwasher.
I've come to bury Caesar Brutus
heouldn't get here in - time. Aye,
tear her . tattered ensign down.
Jump, ..Boy, Jump, Auf wleder
sehen." I'm afraid that is a lit
tie mixed but it is all a delight
fully kaleidoscopic haze of mem
orles in my own mind.
And yet how distinctly I recall
some of the particulars of that
first fall term at Willamette! I
had hardly disembarked from the
train on my arrival and was cros
sing- into State street, when I
found myself confronted by a little
man with a tall stovepipe hat and
long-tailed coat, trying to guide a
bicycle. He was wabbling fear
fully and nearly knocked me down
before I could dodge out of his
way. He only looked wildly ahead
and shouted to me, "Hey! get off
of the earth. Don't you see I'm
riding a bicycle?" A moment later
he was leaning up against a tele
phone pole with which he had col
lided, mopping his streaming face.
a m .
a xew nours later, when I was
cosily located in a room of a beau
tiful home opposite the Court
House. I learned that this littln
man, who had so unceremoniously
accosted me, waa to be my land
lord none other than dear old Dr.
Jessup of blessed memory, whom I
came to know and love as a sec
ond father.
Shortly after that, we had our
first assembly of the college year.
I was quite ignorant of the cus
toms and knew. nothing of such
functions, but,, toward the close of
the hour, I became aware that
rresiaent Hawley was making
some highly eulogistic remarks
about the new Latin professor,
The students began to applaud

style of his, gave me a most ir-

Mamy times since, during these
long years, I have tried to recall
what it was I said, but I have been
unable to bring: tbem to mind. I
nave begun., to, .conclude that
didn't sar anything at all.
But-1 did say something shortly
after that. There was a reception
to new students and new members
of the faculty at the First Metho
dist chnrch, where I found myself
on the platform and expected to
make some response to the address
of welcome. Well, do you know,
all I could think to say was the
next Sunday's golden text. It was
ine reply of Ruth to Naomi, and I
stammered: "Entreat me not to
leave thee, nor to return from fol
lowing After thee." I meant to
convey that I hoped I had come
to stay awhile, and wished them
to give me a fair chance. The
people were good enough not to
augn, ana one young lady even
consoled me by saying that "It was
me nest speech of the evening."
And there was another reception
shortly after that a recention .nH

al path which used to lead up from
the corner of State street, when a
new student who was to enter that
morning overtook me. He asked
me If I was a Freshman and I told
him I was, and we shook hands
on it. He then confided to me
that he was going to take First
Year Latin, and I said I was too,
and we shook hands again. An
hour or so later he came Into my
room to sign up for his course. He
took one look at me, and then an
other,, and then passed out and
across the hall Jn to Miss Reynold's
room, and told her he thourht he
had b etter take the Preparatory
course mat ne didn't like the

Well, things went along fairly
well, until I became aware of some
murmurings against the long lea

friends in the Latin class told me
in confidence of a mliirace that
flowed back of the University cam

Hawley asked for a conference
