ny on a piano player. The symphony is probably the best work of Beethoven, showing, as did all his other works, that he studied the problems of life through his music. The paper further showed that Beethoven was a prophet, seer and moralist of his time. Following the paper Miss Laura Gaston and Mrs. Ada L. Bernhardt led in a discussion, others who made short talks being Hon. William Dudley Foulke, Mr3. M. F. Johnston, Dr. Charles S. Bond and Prof. Walter S. Davis.
