' QUITE the outstanding musical event of the week was the , evening of chamber music given at-the -country home, of Col. and . Mrs. Gordon Voorhles. Friday evening by the Portland Chamber Music String quartet. : The ensemble was composed of Susie Fennel Pipes, first violin, who Is well known irt the valley it in her kHu r Ale and has many, personal friends here who delight In her art, and bertTSbrsnsenseoond yloliu.. lexahder Vdovin, viola and Fer dinand. Konard, 'vJplln-'ccllo. There seems ,10 be. a special unity: about the work ot-a string quartette that enables the' play ers to re-create the music, giving it the same freshness, spontanlety nnd subtle musical quality that it had upon Its emergence from the brain and heart';of ' the composer. Th rendition Is ' something more than tre beautifully -evident ac curacy of reading, pcrclslon of at tack, delicacy of release, or fin ished phrasing, and takes on a spiritual quality, that ' made the classic D major quartet by Mozart most exquisite and appealing. The Russian . school was rep resented . by a captivating num ber from a suite by Olaz-onow. The haunting beauty and memory stirring notes of the Londonder ry Air, entangled, as it were In a . maze of intricate modern har monic progressions, which finally gave way to the lucid beauty and satisfying simplicity of the origin al harmonl, ' was much' enjoyed and was' repeated at the close of the program. The wide-spread Interest In negro folk-lore as well as that of all . nations, is reflected ' not only in literature - but also In such music as Ernest 43Iochks "Amer ica," the new wprid symphony of Dvorak and the shifting moods of the quartet opus 96 which was so adequately 'rendered. ! The atmosphere of the concert was" that of eager music lovers thirsting for the best In music. Situated at such -a distance from a. music center,, and knowing full well the difficulties of presenting such a concert, the genrotis hos pitality of Col! ' and Mrs. Voor hles was much appreciated. ' Mrs. Alta Naylor has been the guest of Mrs. R W. Miles at her cabin on the Rogue, at Edgewood Park, during the past week. Mr. Miles motored out to spend the week-end.

The early history of Japan was the subject of n most Interesting paper by "Mrs. J. K. Lawrence. All records of events. In Japan before tho fifth century were h ended down from one genera Hon to another by orul tradition, henco events of the period are largely mythical. Tho Imperial Dynasty extends beyond that of any reigning house of Kurope and Its reputed origin is traced to the Hun Goddess. Her rhaptel of Jewels, swords nnd mirror are still tho Insignia of the Imperial llouso of Japan. Tho fifth to tho ninth century was marked by n strong continen tal Influence. China was, at that time In a high stato of develop ment and her civilization spread through Kora Into Japan. . litit It was through the Iluddlst religion that Japan recelvod Its greatest contribution of culture from Chlnn. In 1683 nil commerce with oth er nations was forbidden and no Japanese was permitted to leave the country, under pain of death. Japan Isolated herself from for eign nations for over two hundred years. During this time, the country prospered, wealth In creased and literature was en conrued . In 154 Commander Perry succeeded In negot luting a treaty with Japan hy which two ports were opened . to foreign commerce. "Within fifty years," says Dryan, In Japan from within, "she has codlflpd her laws, Instituted mod ern Judiciary, eliminated extra territoriality, revised the foreign treaties in her own fnvor, secured national autonomy, defeated Chlnn Kussla and Germany and taken her seat among her aggressors as an equal .In the supreme councils of" tho world." The ory of Ronald McDon ald by livn Emery Dye was re viewed hy Mrs. I n. Humphreys In a very plenstng manner. The fur trnders, pioneers nnd Dr. Mr Laughltn served pi a background and the review dwelt on McDun- aid's interest In Jupan. Three Japanese sailors rescued from a Kull to the brim by November 21 shipwreck, aroused in Itannld Mc-jthls cheat will bo one , of. the main'' Donald a great desire to knowj features of the annual bazaar" to something of this 'Hermit Ka-1 bo held In the old Catholic church tlon." Becoming a sailor on a building bri November 21, 22 and whaling vessel, he later arrangt'd to bo put adrift near tho coast of Japan. His landing, treatment. Imprisonment and ultimate re lease furnish the interesting theme for this part ofthe book, closing with his return home nfter sail ing the "Seven Seas." Mrs. W. J. Warner concluded tho program with an Instructive article entitled "Whither America" from "The Forum."
