Kmil Oberhof. fer. director of the Miiim apolis Sym phony on hcstra, hege n most unpre tentiously, and has now nn organ izntmn ol miisii-i.ins known thriiout the world. This i not an isolated ex ample, but so much more the rule than the cxeention iK-rhnps one should be pardoned for mentioning the obvious. As stated before, tho Med ford: Choral- society nnd orchestra is the only uiiiHieal organization we have at present. It is one, however, which merits attention and admiration. Only the best music is studied, rehearsals occurring weekly, are neither long nor tiring, and qualifications for membership urc not rigorous.

Following is a few lines from a communication pf Mudnme Lucin aloir, director of the new Conserv atoire de Musiquo at Portland: 'I am, indeed, surprised. that Med ford is to have opera. It certainly does indicate a music-loving com munity. We are all looking forward to it here, too; it will seem like home again. Mntznnhnuer was fine last night. Her voice is nn unusual one. o tar as power and beauty of tone are concerned. She was a statu esque monument pouring out voice in huge quantities. It is unusual to hear such nn organ, nnd I believe it to be the only one of its kind." Madame Valair, who was -a pro fessional opera singer in Paris until the war, is interested in all musical activities on the const, ns well as in the city she has chosen for her home.

The director, Harry Howell, is a musician, however, of wide ex pcrieiicc, nnd his nsldstnuts eivo will ingly of their best nt all times. Mr. Howell is another example of resi dent who wns first attracted to our midst by the climate came, saw and was conquered. Bought a place liked us and thought he'd stny. He has given generously of bis services whenever needed in innny instances. In answer to tho question, "What have you done?" Mr. Howell says: "Everything from Barnum nnd Bailev to the Bostonians."

As an orchestra conductor, he has played in the theaters of Sullivan & Considine, the Orphoum nnd Pon tages nnd with road shows, including nrnmntie compnnics, operas, min strels nnd the circus. In the cast Mr. Howell's principnl work was writing nnd iimuming orchestra tions, n similar service for which many locnl musicians have cause to bo grateful.

A pupil at the King Conservatory of Music in San Jose, her work under tue direction of n teacher has been broadened by practical experience in ensemble. Carl Lovcland, who plnys clarinet nnd violincello, is from a musical family, nnd with the "Five Musical Lovelands," ns they were billed, bo gnn touring on the vaudeville stage nt 9 years of age.

The orchestras in the pnncipul theaters in the east arc featuring effects more nnd more. Mr. Capper has recently added nn xylo phone to his outfit, which "listens" extremely well in certain styles of music.
