MANOR-ISMS By ETHELYN EVANS Musical Notes: We are con vinced that the launching of the First Britt Music Festival in Jacksonville will prove to be a truly wonderful thing for the valley. The benefits ac cruing from future festivals, in enjoyment, musical educa tion and desirable publicity, are inestimable. Congratula tions and gratitude are due Mrs. Bert Pree, president, her entire committee, and all the many volunteer workers and contributors for the immense success of the Festival, also for the incredible job they ac complished after a late start. The programs we heard were most enjoyable and very well received and appreciated by enthusiastic listeners. Scattered over the hillside in informal groups certainly in casual and informal attire it took some time to realize that the audience was really a large one. The setting for the concerts is perfect. I wouldn't try to estimate the full number that could find advantageous spots irom wnich to see and hear but I am willing to waeer now that next season our Manor members will turn out in 'bus" loads. This bei no the ursi year ann tne local on strange, there was some hesi tancy about possible distances to walk, the seating arrange ments, etc. All of these prob lems were beine miraculously solved by the end of this scries. The Festival next year will be sure to ect off tn a flying start. My husband and I have at tended outdoor programs in various places from coast to coast: At the Water Gate in Washington, D. C, where we sat on the bank of the Po tomac with the Lincoln Me morial as background, lislen- ng lo the Nationa Svmohonv orchestra or one of our three famous service bands playing from an anchored barce un the river. The atmosphere there was rather formal, prop er and a la protocol. Then in Robin Hood Dell in Philadel phia with a seating capacity of thousands; the Esplanade on the Charles river in Bos ton, where the Boston Sym phony played to a "melting pot" crowd of 25 lo 30,000; at lovely i Tanglewood in the Massachusetts Rerkshires with an intellectual overtone from the many, many music stu dents swarming over the grounds; also the sweetly se rene and solemn music at MacDnwell concerts in Peler- boro, N.H.; and Ihence tn the Rose Bowl, San Diego and Carmel where, inevitably,- some degree of Hollywood "spectacular'' colored per formances. However, the Britt Festival in our valley seems the most satisfactory because of the warm, intimate and friendly spirit; not only among people in the audience, composed of residents and visitors, hut be tween the musicians and these audiences. Often the musi cians, when not required in some numbers, were lounging on the ground with their families and friends. I've long since exhausted my store of enthusiastic ad jectives describing the many musical treats our member, Mrs. Vivian Giles, has gien and arranged for us. She did it again this past week when she brought her friend, Mrs. Donna Snyder, Mill City, Ore., tn sing a number of beautiful songs for us, follow ed by three piano solo num bers and commentary by Mrs. Giles. I particularly enjoyed the "Danse Polonaise" by Albert Jeffery, who once was Mrs. Giles' teacher. This composi tion has never been published, but was bequeathed to Mrs. Giles by the late Mr. Jcffeiy. Mrs. Snyder proved herself versatile and a clever imper sonator when she sang folk songs, accompanying herself on an "Autoharp," which is somewhat like a zither. Mike Higgins, son of Ad ministrator and Mrs. Walter Higgins, who won an appoint ment to the Naval academy, Annapolis last year, delighted Manor members by showing slides of that beloved institu tion in its beautiful setting and telling of his experiences there. Mike is a fluent and in teresting speaker and we en joyed him. He will soon be on his way back for another year of hard work. I have a beamingly happy neighbor on our fifth floor, Mrs. Frederick Breed, because she has been entertaining her daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Genlzler, and three lively grandchildren, from Marion, Ohio. Mrs. Breed has shown them every thing of interest for miles around, and has now taken off for California to do like wise and in a short period of time, winding up with two full days at Disneyland. Probably she will be taking a short rest-cure before re turning to the Manor next week. Coffee Held By Chapter A "get acquainted" coffee of Beta Upsilon chapter of Beta Sigma Phi was held Au gust 15 at the home of Mrs. Ralph Kingman, the chapter president.
