intended as a derogatory pun,
but a statement of things to
come, literally. According to
Mr. E. H. Stewart, within a
period of 6 or 8 months, he
will have moved the best col
lection of game birds in the
State of Oregon into their
new quarters on Tiller-Trail
highway (Oreg. 227).
For almost 45 years, Mr.
Stewart and his wife, Ardith,
have operated a large game

Sunday's Audience Enjoys
Britt Festival Concert
By R. D. WERNER
Yesterday evening the Britt
Music Festival orchestra be
gan its second week in Jacksonville.
Bach's Brandenburg Con
certo No. 5 in D Major for
flute, violin and piano (harp
sichord) was the opening
number. Soloists were Gretel
Shanlcy, Charles Hcidcn and
Margaret Moore. The three
movements were Allegro, Af
fetuoso and Allegro.
This music is not a great
inspirational work but effec
tive for what It is. BactVs
music was the final flowering
of the Baroque school and the
tremendous skill he possessed
made him able to make an
ordinary scale sound musical.
Beethoven and Brahms had
the same skill and the great
critic, Ernest Newman said it
exasperated him because it
was difficult to tell wncre
inspiration left off and crafts
manship sot In. However, it
was well played and set the
tone for the rest of the pro
gram. French Horn Solo
The concerto for French
horn by Morart No. 4 in E
flat Major had Mr. White for
soloist. He played the diffi
cult solo part very well and
it always amazes this writer
that horn players do the
things they do with such ap
parent ease. Of course, it only
seems that way because even
with the aid of valves they
have to produce all the tones
with their lips. It is a treach
erous instrument and the
player can never be certain
that any given tone will not
crack or break. As regards
the tempi the soloist and con
ductor should follow the ad
montlon of Richard Strauss
and Bcla Bartok (both of
whom were authorities on Mo
zart): "Play Mozart slower
Rough Language Okay
On Construction Job
Des Moines, Iowa - IHPII
Swearing and "rough lan
guage" is permissible in con
struction work, the Iowa Em
ployment Security Commis
sion has ruled.
Refusing Jobless benefits to
a worker who quit because his
foreman swore, the commis
sion declared:
"It is known that in con
struction work some rough
language Is used and some
drinking is done from time to
time. It is rough, hot work
and demands a type of per
son who is sometimes not
too careful as far as language
is concerned." -
than written and then a little
slower."
After.. Inter mission the
strings played a psalm and
fugue by Hovhancss. This
contemporary Armenian
American composer is a de
parter from the idiom most
commonly called modern. He
is not afraid of homophonic
sound nor afraid to create
some beauty. It was extremely
well played and the plaudits
were well earned. One critic
remarked after hearing some
of Hovhanness' music that he
had "better take care abo.it
writing music people could
enjoy or he would be read out
of the league."
An Elizabethan ' suite by
Purccll arranged by Barbir
olli was a let down after the
Hovhaness. Perhaps it was
programmed as a salute to
the festival in Ashland. At
best Elizabethan music is cold
and colorless. The English
were experimenting on their
own because there was not at
that time much contact with
the continent and they were
feeling their way out of the
confines of the modal system
of the church. They did some
daring things, as witness the
chord progressions in the
opening of this suite, and did
much to free music from its
former shackles.
It was an evening of nice
music and apparently jnjoved
by the audience after whirh
no more need be said. The
same program will be played
tonight.
Tuesday, Aug. 20, concerts
will be given at 4 and 8 p.m.
with Director John Trudeau
conducting and David Atkins,
clarinetist, as soloist for a
Copland number, James
Smith and Charles Lauer will
be featured in a concerto for
two trumpets and string or
chestra, by Manfrcdi, and
Bach suite will close the program.
area of California. They have
specialized in the breeding,
and raising of various kinds
of pheasants. They also have
large flocks of geese, includ
ing the famed Canadian hon
ker, and the rare snow goose.
Among their variety of duck
are the Mandarin and mal
lard. Altogether, they will
bring into this area a flock
of approximately 5,000 birds.
The Stewarts purchased the
old Wehyde home place at
the Intersection of Buck Rock
Lookout road and Highway
227. Presently, the construc
tion of pans to house these
birds, plus those additional
utility buildings needed, is
going on apace. And, within
the time mentioned above,
The Stewart Game-bird farm
should be in full operation.
Mr. Stewart is an Army
veteran of World War I, and
is now a VA pensioner. Dur
ing that conflict he was
wounded in four different
places Africa, France. Sicilv.
and Italy. He has lectured on
ornithology throughout the
United States, and he states
that he believes that he is
one of only three other such
speakers in the country who
also furnish film showing
with their talks.
A Federal permit as welt
as a State license is required
to Dreed and raise game birds.
The farm will sell these game
birds on the retail and whole
sale markets, but most of the
past sales have been made
to parks and zoos throughout
the country. Large sales have
also been made to wild game
bird refuges in States through
out the U.S.
Mrs. Stewart is remaining
in San Fernando valley until
the new location is prepared
and ready for the reception
of this large flock of game
birds. .

Applegdte River Area Visited by Rockhounds
Applegate Valley - Appar
ently "one jade lover tells
another," and about 30 rock
hounds from . Klamath Falls,
with a few from Grants Pass,
literally converged on the
Applegate river during the
week end, and took home
some worthwhile specimens
of jade. The group came and
went at various periods over
the week end, making the old
CCC camp above Copper
their overnight headquarters.
Fishing and gold panning
also was on the agenda. They
called themselves "the., tail
gaters." The Klamath group
was headed by Mrs. Jack
Brownell of the Klamath
Falls rock and mineral club.
She stated that the Klamath
group has scheduled a rock
show for mid-September.
They also visited the Apple-
gate rock shop, owned by
Kenneth Paine, who made the
jade discovery in the Apple
gate river five years ago, and
who since has discovered jade
of much higher quality than
the first samples. According
to Paine, Len Ramp, resident
geologist in Grants Pass, will
have an article published soon
in the "Ore Bin," state geol
ogy magazine, regarding dis
covery of nephrite jade irl
