PASADENA, Calif., March 18. Strange things come out of
Hollywood. Perhaps you have seen Hollywood's baby orchestra
on tiie news reels well they performed st the Lutheran church
here in Pasadena yesterday, and "we-all" attended. An extra
ordinary aggregation of tiny tots, of all sizes and races, ranging
from four to seven years of age, fiddling for dear life, like a
lot of perfectly synchronized automatons.
The setting was rather incongruous, Hollywood babies per
forming in an orthodox Lutheran atmosphere. The interior of
the church was as far removed from Hollywood as the north
pole from the south, a cold, bare, uninviting, varnished-pine
austerity; clashing with the velveteen suits, lace collars and
golden curls of Hollywood s musical percosity. This incongruity
was accentuated when the pastor, a youngish man, with a very
grim visage and slightly foreign accent, announced that the
audience should not applaud, during the performance, ag ap
plause was not customary in the House of God.
Those who couldn t resist
might wave their programs in the
Needless to say this announcement caused something of a
stir, as the audience was largely composed of tourists and out
siders, who assumed they had come to a concert not a religious
service, and were prepared to express their enthusiasm in the
customary Occidental fashion.
However there was no disposition to disregard the wishes of
the church, and during the first
ber was followed by a waving of programs, newspapers and
handkerchiefs, soniewluit after the fashion of silent Chautauqua
salutes. It all seemed rather silly hut we didn't imagine anyone
minded certainly the babies didn't a more self possessed,
matter-of-fact, bunch of professional performers could hardly
be imagined. They had their various stunts to do and did
them, nothing short of an earthquake or fire, could one felt
have ruffled their perfect composure, or put a hitch in their
program.
But Joseph Borissof, the temperamental director of the
organization felt differently about it, or so it later transpired.
After five or six numbers the pastor of the church again ap
peared, looking more grim and austere than ever.
He repeatetl his views about applause in the church, but
stated that Mr. Borissoff had just
were not allowed, a form of
charges were accustomed, he would call off the concert at
once and return in the motor bus to Hollvwood !
The pastor did not wish to disappoint the many people who
had come to hear the children perform, so he felt compelled to
lift the ban on hand clapping for the time being, upon which
the entire audience burst into vociferous applause, the pastor
suddenly went pale as a sheet, turned around abruptly, as if
slapped in the face, and opening
made his exit apparently in great spiritual and emotional
agitation.
The babies really performed astonishingly and they were
BABIKS. One little Filipino girl was particularly remarkable,
singing the difficult aria from the Magic Flute, like a Sembrich,
true as a trivet and cool as a cigar store Indian. There were
violin solos, cello solos and recitations all run off in true pro
fessional style. Yet to the present writer there was something
slightly phoney about it all, it was TOO professional, not
spontaneous enough, or child-like ... the kids were just a bit
TOO sure of themselves.
This is perhaps not. a valid criticism. One can hardly expect
little children to perform in the movies several times, and in
public more or less regularly and behave like normal little boys
and girls. Nor can one expect them to play or sing with feeling
at that age they must perform more or less mechanically. In
short it is a stunt rather than a musical performance, and like a
flea circus should be accepted as a stunt, not as a circus. That
is, the impressive thing is not what the fleas do but that they
can do ANYTHING, at human direction; and the impressive
thing about this baby orchestra is not the music produced, but
that such babes in arms, such tinv tots, can PRODUCE
MUSIC at all. ,
The interesting thing about this orchestra will be the final
results of such forced training and as this is said to be the
first baby orchestra of the kind ever formed, one must wait
several years before the results can be known. Will these little
children, so precocious musically, be better musicians because
of this curly discipline and direction, or will they be played out,
so to speak, in a few years, and never attain any real artistic
distinction in adult, life? It will take 15 or 20 years to answer
that question. Meanwhile as a tour do force, the baby orchestra
provides a genuine sensation.
The Townsend old age pension plan originated at Long Beach
near here and in the Pasadena paper, the first of Townsend club
meetings, adds up to eight or ten inches. Yet according to the
local newspaper men the movement, is really on the decline, and
it is even doubtful if the state legislature endorses the proposal
m a resolution to congress. This seems rather odd. Perhaps
me newspaper men are mistaken.

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
AN OUTSTANDING political issue
in these disturbed days Is divid
ing up wealth meaning by that, of
court, dividing up the OTHER FEL
LOW S wealth.
None of us Is interested in dividing
up OUR wealth.
DIVIDING up wealth raises two In
teresting questions:
1. What la wealth?
3. Just how would we go about di
viding it up?
OST of us think of wealth as
MONEY.
It Isn't.
You can't eat money. You can't
wear money. You can't shelter your
self with money. If there were noth
ing on earth but MONEY, we should
all starve.
Wealth consists of THINGS.
QINCE wealth consists of things, and
w noi oi money,, wnicn 16 oniy a
medium to make easier the exchange
of one thing for another, let us see
how we should go about dividing it
up if we should undertake such an
enterprise
Let us take the Ford Motor com
pany as an example.
THE Ford Motor company is popu
larly supposed to be worth about
a billion dollars. But this billion dol
lars Isn't represented by a pile of 910
bills that can be passed out and di
vided up.
It is represented by buildings, ma
chinery, salesrooms, laboratory equip
ment. Iron mines, railroad cars, stocks
of Iron, steel, rubber, leather and
other raw materials.
And so on. Indefinitely.
UST how would you go about di
vldlng up. a great factory among
120 million people?
If you tried It, you would have to
tear It to pieces, giving one piece to
this one, another to that one. And bo
on. When you finished with the di
vision, one would have a cogwheel,
another would have a shaft, another
a handful of bolts.
These things would be VALUELESS
to their possessors.
AND after you finished the great
factories of the Ford Motor com
pany, which now give employment at
good wages to thousands and thou
sands of persons, would be DE
STROYED, and those who now have
employment in them would be with
out employment.
Nothing would be left but ruin.
f ET US take the great telephone
A company as another example.
Of what does Its wealth consist?
Of money? Not at all. Its wealth
consists or iiUchinery, buildings, in
tricate awttchboards. poles, wire, etc.
If you set out to divide these things
among 120 million people, one would
emerge with a pole, another with a
roll of wire, and a third with a piece
of a switchboard.
, And the net result would be de
struction of the telephone system,
with loss of Jobs by those who now
HOLD these jobs and loss by till of
the comforts and conveniences pro
vided by telephone service.
SUPPOSE the Ford Motor company,
or the telephone company, does
have cash reserves of even as much as
50 million dollars. What would 50
million dollars amount to when di
vided among 120 million people?
About FORTY cents aplecol
THIS idea of dividing up the other
fellow's wealth makes good am
munition for Irresponsible demagogues,
who care only for votea and have no
Interest at all in FACTS.

jODS ABILITY TOPIC
FOR SUNDAY SERMON
Speaking from the topic. "The
Ability of God." Fred M. Weather
ford, pastor -evangel 1st, siad In part
a& he spoke from the Church of the
Nazarene pulpit Saturday night:
"My text you will find In the 7th
chapter of Hebrews and the 25th
verse: 'Wherefore. He Is able to save
them to the uttermost that come
unto God by Him. seeing He ever
ltveth to make intercession for them.'
"First of all in the ability of God.
He Is all-knowing: He Is a dlscerner
even of the thoughts and Intents of
personality. Everything is manifest
in His sight. 'All things are naked
and open to the eyea of Him whom
we have to do."
'The display of His power markedly
manifests His ability. After every
prolvlsion known to the ability of
man to make Christ safe In the tomb
was exercisfd, it was Inadequate to
meet the ability of the Omnipotent.
By His matchless ability He came
forth, as though no provision had
been made to retain Him In the tomb.
After His resurrection He said, 'All
power 1 given me in heaven and in
earth.'
"His ability Is shown in the sacrifi
cial provision He made for man's re
demption. "Who gave himself a ran
som for all." He interposed His blood
to efface our guilty stains. Without
Him none can be saved. With Him
none need be lost."
