Community Club Hears County President The Woman's Community Club, at its meeting on Friday Afternoon, heard a program of great Interest to both native Hoosiers and those who have adopted Hoosierland as their homes. We heard of the "Origin of Music in Indiana." Mrs. Forrest Stuck, President of the St. Joseph County Federation of Clubs, was the guest speaker. She was assisted by her sister. Mrs. Joseph Sills, in giving the talk. Mrs. Sills is a member of the Adult Education Roundtable Club of South Bend. Mra, Stuck’s program was based on the book "Music in Indiana” by Elizabeth Gunn Siebert, which was written prior to 1930. Mrs. Siebert's hurfiand was a former mayor ct South Bend; and her mother, Mra. Gunn is listed as tme of the early musicians of the South Bend area. In the beginning, music in Indiana was very simple and humble. It was first taught in Vincennes in 1792; and in 1795. New Year Carols were sung there. Singing Schools, in the early years, were schools of instruction and social gatherings. At that time, hymn types of music were used. Sunday afternoon was the meeting time oC ringing schools. Charges for lessons at the schools was 50c to 75c for twelve lessons. Young penpin sang at such gatherings as Quilting Bees. Songs used were "Round the Malberry Bush," "Nellie Gray", "Old Dan Tucker,” and others. In 1820, it is noted that reapers left their fiekia led by musicians.

Oiu Thought For You From Kent R. Pabuer

No one can condemn the goodness in being a Good Samaritan, but there are times when common sense should tell us NOT to be a Good Samaritan. A Good Samaritan motorist Is victimized by a hitchhiker almost every day. In one place or another, an incident of robbery, rape, murder or physical violence is reported. Just as you can nol tell a book by the cover, you can not in an instant of stopping, determine a deserving, decent hitchhiker from a thumb-bum hoodlum. Yet. detcpite wide spread police warnings, drivers continue to pick up hitchhikers. These Good Samaritan drivers art hteraUy asking for trouble. Not too long ago, the New Jersey state paMce investigated turnpike hitchhikers. They found 162 runaways, 96 A.W.OX. servicemen. 7 escapees from mentsl hospitals, and 5 escaped convicts. In addition, fingerprints identified 500 others with criminal records. When you pick up a hitchhiker, you are making a guess that can affect your own safety and protection. Too many people have already guessed wrung. You can too. Is the guess worth the risk? Palmer Funeral Home North Liberty. 656-8362 and NuiUmhuu 1 uncral Home Walkerton, 586-3444

Many Bands and Orchestras were formed in the early years of Indiana; such as, in 1857 thvie was in Mishawaka the Mishawaka Brass Band and Orchestra in 1870 the Clifford Band and Orchestra in South Bend, and many others. Indianapolis became musically inclini’d in 1824 when the Society for Culture of Music was organized there. By 1880, Indianapolis had become a "music town," and in 1889 the first Music School for Instruction was organized there. A highlight for early Indiana was the visit of Jenny Lind, the Swedish Nightingale, at Madison, Indiana. She gave a concert at Madison while on a trip on the Ohio River. The first piano was brought to Indiana in 1817 for a Mary Wright, who was educated in London. The Bells for the University of Notre Dame came from France in 1856, and the first electric organ was installed in 1919 in the Colise um at Evansville, Indiana for the "enjoym o nt of its citizens.” Prior to the period of 1900-1914. most musical talent was of foreign ancestry, but after 1914 the American families became known for their musical talents. With the coming of Radio, the appreciation of music doubled. “On the Banks of the Wabash” has been established as the Indiana State Song. Mrs. Stuck gave us an afternoon of interesting facts about the early music of our Hoosier State. The hostesses were Mrs. Howard Ferguson, Mrs. Francis Murphy, and Mrs. Brook Bowers. The tables, which reflected a "breath of Spring, had daffodils In profusion accompani'*d by musical designs on the tables and place mats. Mrs. Frank Kramer presided at the tea table. On March 15. Mra. Theodore Feece of the Quality Viobt House will speak on "African Violets and Their Kisrin’ Cousins". She will display many of her Violets and their related plants, which will be for sale.
