in four years

NO DEFENCE

4 Illustrations by C. D. Williams. $2 net

Not only has Sir Gilbert written again a thrilling Parker romance-adventure, with its high lights and deep shades, its warm and human love episodes, its problems of universal appeal, its absorbing interplay of soul upon soul, but in addition, with penetrating insight and great artistry, the author has contrasted the Irish and English temperaments in many deft and tragihumorous scenes. The plot is irresistibly dramatic from the meeting of the two lovers in Ireland until the final scene on the island of Jamaica. "No Defence " will take high place among the really great

romances.

quartette later sang the spinning quartette from "Martha in proper style, and afterwards the matchlessly piquant quintette from "Carmen" delighted the audience greatly. The specific American part of the audience was keenly gratified when at last two movements of the Arthur Foote piano quartette were played, which formed the fitting close of the set programme.

Books containing songs and folk-songs of many lands, mostly arranged for four voices and in English translations, were now distributed, and under the leadership of the director and the chorus we all were made to sing in harmonious communion, each taking a part that was most suitable. Our hearts and spirits grew serene with harmony and sweet romantic sentiment and our souls felt purified and chastened as from a shower-bath of spiritual beauty.

As the people at the conclusion of the singing rose from their seats I begged my hostess to tell me something about the whole affair, but she excused herself, saying that this particular aggregation were used to have some material comforts when the spiritual session was over, and it would not do for her as the hostess for the occasion to be behindhand.

In the meantime I sought Miss Myra, whom I found in animated conversation in French with a young man who had played, I noticed, some of the accompaniments for the singing. She hailed me in friendliest manner, and, after introducing me, asked how I had enjoyed myself. I replied that I could not recall an event for the longest time that had given me such unmitigated pleasure, and that I was most anxious to be informed how this thing had come about.

"Well, come and sit down here," was her answer, "and I will tell you all about it; it is really very simple.

"While my sister and I were at the school in Lausanne we made a specialty of music, and during our last year there we were invited to join a private music society which held its meetings in the homes of the families that were members. Most delightful music was made there, from operas and part songs to chamber music, and the membership and atmosphere of the society were charmingly spontaneous and informal. You know, almost every educated European can do something in music; and though none of the members of the society were professional except the director, there were any number of excellent amateurs, or dilettanti, as they call them over there, and we had a most enjoyable year with this circle. As you remember, we had to come home in a hurry when the war broke out, and during the last years both Betty and I, not to mention mother, who is even more of a music enthusiast than either of us, have keenly felt the loss of a real musical and artistic atmosphere that we, so to speak, could take right into the home with us and enjoy with our friends.

"We have heard no end of good-yes, wonderful things in New York during the last seasons, but nevertheless we both have felt we were getting rusty in our music and lacked the personal inspiration that encourages one to keep up and go forward.

present has more fine teachers and eminent musicians than any city on earth, and the only thing that is a little backward is what is usually called atmosphere. In America we practice more repression than expression, and, as mother says, Americans have been hiring singers to "sing at" them so long that we have forgotten to sing eurselves. But I think that is only a part of it. Europe has, to my mind, a more advanced sense of sociability, and that is why they know how to bring the enjoyment of the arts into their homes.

"Our desire was to form a musical circle, as we had seen it in operation over there, and we could not but believe that among the thousands of New Yorkers who study music seriously without aiming at making it their profession a sufficient number of good amateurs could be found to make a congenial private music society a possibility. Whoever searches will find, you know, and we soon discovered among our friends lots of people eagerly interested as soon as they got the idea, and they again had friends who in turn became enthusiastic for the plan.

"To sum it up briefly, a little over a year ago nine families held a meeting at our house and organized the society whose ministrations you have witnessed this evening.

"Our aim was to do good musical work as well as to enjoy ourselves, so, realizing that we had to have adequate and diversified talent to do a variety of things, we have to

The Rebirth of Korea The Reawakening of the People: Its Causes, and the Outlook

By Hugh Heung-Wo Cynn
Principal Pai Chai Haktang, Seoul, Korea

"The entrance into English literature, and before the American public, of the Korean who wields such a facile and trenchant pen, is an event of no small importance in the literary and political, as well as the religious world. One of the elements of strength and durability, is the chastened self-control of the writer.

some extent gone outside of the family members, and a few detached men and women of musical attainments have by invitation joined our circle. We have about thirty-five joined our circle. We have about thirty-five active members, and have during the year done trios, quartettes, and some of the classic symphonies in condensed arrangements. When we study some of the operas, mainly those that are not given in America, the singers not needed for the cast make the chorus, and everybody has a good time. It was mother's idea to occasionally have some singing by everybody, and it is now a popular feature; even dad, who has not sung for thirty years except perhaps occasionally in church, says he likes the singing, and that his voice is getting young again.'

The hostess now joined us, saying supper was being served, and the company was gradually drifting towards the refectory.

"According to our discipline," Mrs. P. informed me, "the music work stops at 10:30, and, as singing and playing make folks hungry, supper is a popular institution, though every one knows beforehand what he'll get. You see, that was something we had to regulate. Since the society meets every week at the homes of the

CINCINNATI

various members, some hostesses tried to do more than was needed; in fact, showed a rivalry that was both unpleasant and inconvenient, so we simply made a rule that so much and no more could be served for supper.

"We do not allow smoking or card playing in the house while the music is going on" (this was said with a merry twinkle), "since we noticed in some of our husbands a tendency to escape to some upstairs room for a game and so forth, making excuses about not understanding highbrow' music and the like, but they are always on deck now and seem to like it. After supper every one does as he pleases."

My hostess now escorted me to the dining-room, where the company were enjoying a buffet supper, and I noticed that, in spite of the somewhat cosmopolitan look, the medium of conversation appeared to be English. Over it all was an atmosphere of well-bred informality and good fellowship which perhaps only music-and by music I mean noble music-may create.

In coming away I had the inspiring impression that this society had hit upon a fine way of democratizing an art that is in itself essentially aristocratic.

SENAT

ENATOR WALSH, of Montana, offers in The Outlook of September 8 what you justly term a "persuasive" plea for perinitting the entry of commercialism into the National Parks by authorizing the damming of the outlet of the Yellowstone Lake. It is also a plea both ingenious and specious, and therefore all the more dangerous.

Obviously those to profit from this use of "the property of a hundred million people" for the benefit of a very few thousands of those people have materially modified their plan, reported on their own prospectuses to involve the raising of the level of the Yellowstone Lake some twentyfive feet. The protest was too strong; so now less water will do-at first, just as a little did at Niagara at first, with now a definite proposal submitted for asking Great Britain to join in a treaty modification increasing the robbing of the great cataract from twenty-seven per cent to forty per cent, and more as may be demanded. The camel long ago got his nose under the tent at Niagara, and he now has at least his shoulders inside! Senator Walsh asks for only the very tip of the snout. Will he guarantee to oppose pushing the rest of the selfish beast under after the nose gets in?

But consider even the modified six-foot proposition, in which, after storing to the flood level, "the excess [is] to be drawn off gradually when it is needed for irrigation." This of course means that the Jake is to be drawn down during the rainless summer gradually. The shores of the Yellowstone Lake are not precipitous, but sloping in general; it is not a concrete reservoir in which the lowering of the water makes little difference at the rim. The Yellowstone shores are, further, not a sand beach like that at Long Branch. To hold the waters at flood level for the several months after they have accumulated means the killing of all or most of the growth that lines the shores; and the gradual drawing down of the water, instead of the quick flood run-off which now leaves the growth uninjured, will almost certainly leave those shores slimy, marshy, and depressing, just as the same process has utterly ruined the once notable beauty of Jackson Lake, south of the Yellowstone Park. The people who are in increasing numbers camping each summer in the Park would soon have to avoid this great lake after it had been made an irrigation reservoir.

But is it at all necessary to thus interfere with the integrity of this great recreation Park in order to avail of its waters, or is it merely cheaper? There is a competent witness at hand in the Secretary of the Interior, the Hon. John Barton Payne, in whose hands are all the irrigation relations of the Federal Government. Judge Payne has been in the Yellowstone within a few weeks, and in a letter to me, dated September 9, he writes:

There is a growing appreciation of our National Parks, and the country is beginning, perhaps dimly, to realize the great service they are rendering. I spent four or five days in Yellowstone Park during July. The attendance there is constantly increasing, especially among persons who go there in their own machines and camp there. It is a genuine pleasure to see how the camp is being enjoyed. A live question in which I am gratified that your Associa

EXPLOITING THE YELLOWSTONE. IS IT NECESSARY-OR MERELY CHEAPER? (Continued)

tion takes such a deep interest is the certain encroachment upon the parks by power and other interests tending toward their commercialization. This tendency should be resisted to the utmost. Two projects have been presented proposing to invade the Yellowstone. One from Idaho proposes to build two dams, and to store the water in the lowlands not far from the Idaho line. A bill to authorize this passed the Senate and is now pending in the House. The other comes from Montana and seeks to dam the Yellowstone River near the mouth of Yellowstone Lake. I gave a hearing to persons interested in this project when I was in the Yellowstone, and I pointed out to them that it was very much more desirable from every standpoint that the dam for reclamation use should be built outside of the Park. The water flow in the vicinity of the Yankee Jim Canyon is more than twice as large as at the mouth of Yellowstone Lake. The Lamar River and some lesser streams flow into the Yellowstone below the falls at the Canyon.

Any such encroachment upon the Yellowstone, in my judgment, is not necessary, and will do very great harm; and should not be permitted.

The value of water for power and reclamation purposes I fully appreciate; but since the water does not remain in the Park, means may always be found to utilize the water after it leaves the Park to the same, and often to a greater, extent than if the effort was made to use it in the Park.

(Signed)

JOHN BARTON PAYNE.

Is not this a competent and definite answer to Senator Walsh's plausible plea?

I am inclined to distrust the statements of some of these gentlemen who are after the public property for private benefit, since I have heard from Mr. William C. Gregg, an Eastern business man, who has for many summers been going off the main roads in the Yellowstone to study its wonders. (The development of this great Park has scarcely begun. Barely 60 miles of road exist in its area of more than 3,300 square miles.)

Mr. Gregg in July went with his camera to the Falls River Basin in the southwest corner of the Yellowstone Park, where the other scheme referred to by Judge Payne would dam 8,000 acres, as a beginning, of what is claimed to be land" of a swampy and without any scenic value." Read what Mr. Gregg writes me from the Park, under date of August 24:

nature

A broken camera has brought me back from the Falls River Basin. I have spent a week around there, and am going back for another week.

I have time only to report that my pictures are successful so far, and that they will show that the southwestern region is a choice part of the Park. The so-called " swamp" is a series of meadows. The bottoms are well wooded and watered, and fish are plentiful. It is a campers' paradise. I have pictures of three or four fine falls and cascades never photographed before; one falls 130 feet, one cascade 300 feet, and another 380 feet.

The flooding of the valley (perhaps the finest valley in the Park) would bring the water almost to the base of these beautiful Park features.

(Signed) WILLIAM C. GREGG.

Can there be any other proper conclusion than that the only safe policy is to keep all commercialism out of all the National Parks?

The Falls River Basin scheme passed the Senate, and was held up in the House because public-spirited men and women rallied to the call of the American Civic Association and secured objection there. It
