began to assert itself in the
seventh year, and from the year
1776 on, he wrote for the orches
tra, stage, and church over 'a thou
sand numbers. He composed very
rapidly and with great versatil
ity, but hjs writings stand out
more forceably in the orchestra
and opera scores. He was a mel
odist and a harmonist, and al
though his style was homophonle
and harmonic, he was also a mast

The much talked of meeting for
last Tuesday evening, which gave
indications of being a regular
word battle, among members of
Capital Post No. 9, of the Amer
ican Legion, developed into a calm
affair. The only excitement was
the disposal of the motion for
reconsidering the convention in
vitation. It waa finally tabled in
definitely and so the delegates
from Capital Post will go to the
Med ford meeting instructed to use
every effort in securing the 1929
convention. Vice-Commander Her
man Brown presided at the meet
ing Tuesday evening in a most ef
ficient manner.
The Glee club of the American
Legion Auxiliary appeared at the
meeting of Capital Post Tuesday
evening and sang a group of three
songs which were appreciated verv
much. The club will enter the staU
