They appreciate the approval of their mothers as well, but, of the two sanctions, that of their own crowd far outweighs that of their mothers in importance. Isn't this a wholesome thing for mothers to know? I certainly think it is a good thing to know and a thing to cooperate with and not to fight.

It probably dates from the sojourn in the French capital when the composer was 22—a dark chapter in an unhappy life during which his mother died and his music went unrecognized by the smug Parisians. How=ever, Grove’s Dictionary, that usually inexhaustible fountain of musical knowledge, makes no mention of the work.

A new angle on the old gag about the gullible New York visitor buying Brooklyn bridge cropped up the other day in Bridgeport, Conn. A man is said to have purchased a talking tree which the salesman told him was “Charlie McCarthy’s father.” « Charlie even has the psychologists analyzing him trying to see what makes him tick.
