MKRMX HAS A commercial am The city of Merlin Is right up with the most progressive of our munici palities. An enthusiastic boosting commercial club ha been organized which promises In time to ecliomi th. old timers. There are 20 members at present. j The .officers are as follows; President. C. Omano: vlce-pmldent, r. B. ieaUin;. secretary , and treat war,, C, Crow;, Airtrtora,, W. M. Rlckare. H I. it&; B. L. L: LADIES' AUXILIARY CITES ERTERTAIMERT There was a large gathering of the members of the Ladles' auxili ary and their friends yesterday af ternoon in the studio of Prof. W. B. Field, where, after tbe regular busi ness program tbe professor gave an interesting lecture on tbe American composers, Edward Alexander Mac- shorter compositions. The meeting waa opened by the president. Miss Susie Banard, in her usual pleasing manner. She wel comed especially the new comers In Grants Pass and explained that tbe Ladies' auxiliary would from now on add to tbe business program on civic improvement and other interesting features. After the regular business was disposed of, Miss Banard Introduced Prof. Field, who for an hour kept the audience interested In the life and works of MacDowell, He eald that while there were many fine composers among Americans, Mac Dowell undoubtedly towered head and shoulders above them all be cause of his strong individuality, could not he warped or dominated by European teachers or masters, while yet absorbing all that was good In them. Thus he bas given us music that Is distinctive, though K may be too soon to determine whether it is distinc tively American or distinctively in dividualistic. Liszt once said that he considered MacDowell the equal of Brahms, and it Is certain that his music can be played side by side with that of the classic composers with out suffering by comparison. Mac Dowell occupies a middle ground be tween the absolutists of a former period, who believed that only gen- . erai numan emotions can be ex pressed by music, and the extreme romanticists of the present day, who attempt to give us tone pictures of nature and definite human emotions under varying conditions. In his In terpretations MacDowell succeeded remarkably well. He responded to the popular demand for brevity in all things, concentrating his ideas into the smallest possible space, In con trast to the earlier composers, who gave us long sonatas and romances. Prof. Field played the. following selections, Illustrating tbe composer's style in a way which gave pleasure to all his hearers. With each selec tion he gave an explanation of the theme and the manner of its develop ment: Woodland Sketches, The De serted Farm, From an Indian lodge; Uncle Remus; In Autumn; Ode to the Sea; Starlight; song, Scotch poem il lustrating Heine's poem, "Far on Scotland's Scraggy Shore." At the conclusion of Prof. Field's lecture the president extended an In vitation to all those present for- the next meeting of the auxiliary at their club room. The meeting was then adjourned and a social time over the teacups was enjoyed. . COMMERCIAL CI ATI MEETING WILL BE A BANNER ONE The next meeting of the Commer cial club, Jan. 9, promises to be a banner one in the history of the lo cal . organization. It is anticipated that the membership will be more than doubled by that time. One of the encouraging signs of the times Is the large percentage of farmers, fruit .growers and new comers who are becoming members of the club. . Until the recent campaign for new members there were only 17 non residents In the club, the balance be, ing confined to the business men of the town. But the roll call for the next meeting will reveal a host of new names, MIXING MAGAZINE SPEAKS OF HILL RAILROAD The Mining and Scientific for December 24, 1910, has the fol- j Patronize the 1 TREES Eden Valley Nursery. uver 188,000 Tree and Vine WO Iff M?so? - WITHOUT CANVASS lm t ? m h"e-thinlt Wt; then ret -' N.
