Zearing Bill, to Legalize Sunday Concerts, Moving Pictures and Shows Interesting Topic.

(Continued from Page One) well as on any other day in the week. I would even vote for It." Rev. M. L. Haywood, of the Universallst church: "I have not seen the bill and do not know its provisions but personally think it would be a good thing with the understanding that each community should regulate the matter as local conditions obtain. I do not think we can longer withstand the pressure against the Puritanic Sabbath. My only opposition to the measure is that it might deprive men and women engaged in other UneB of work of a needful day of rest." W. P. Starr: "Under proper regulations and certain conditions this bill might be a good thing. I approve of Sunday concerts of a high class character, but would not regard the opening of theaters without proper regulations as beneficial." A number of other leading business men were interviewed by the Palladium some of whom responded briefly to the effect that the law properly regulated, would prove beneficial. Others were opposed to it on the ground that the high class entertainment would be all right but that it might result in the objectionable amusements.

THE BEST COUGH MEDICINE. "I have used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy ever since I have been keeping house," says I C. Hames, of Marbury, AJa. "I consider it one of the best remedies I ever used. My children have all taken it and it works like a charm. For colds and whooping cough it is excellent." For sale by all dealers. OAdverttsement)

EDUCATIVE ASSET

Is the Improved Music Machine which Familiarizes the Average Person with the Great in Musical Art. Sloan Uses Victrola in Schools.

By ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. There is no discounting the music machine. From a crude horror that incited the neighbors to carnage and murder it has evolved into a medium for the reproduction of great musical art. The music machine is a good deal like the theatre. There is something to suit all tastes. The low brows have their innings. The rag-timers their repertoire. The middle of -the roaders their selections. The gospel hymners their shelf to choose from. The vaudevillains to their liking. The musical comedy lovers their inanities. The grand opera habitue bis favorites. The symphonists are suited. The music machine, has, perhaps, done more to educate the general public to an appreciation of good music than any other modern instrument in the country. For we are not, as certain countries abroad, in the habit of hearing the best music at nominal prices. We have no endowed opera. Few civic musical organizations. At first, the music machine, as above stated, was a blatant thing. Shrieking and whining nasally the saccharine ditty of the day. Or howling in shrill falsetto the banal ballad, sentimental song or instrumental vacuity. And, of course, these still continue to make the summer air hideous with their tin-horn bleatings. But they are, oftener than not, the second hand machine sold by the original purchaser for something improved and better. For the latter's taste has been chastened. He has heard the victrola, let us say, or those more euphonious machines and has become dissatisfied with that in his possession. His records, formerly enchanting to his ear, now sound loud and crude. His musical sense is developing. So he sells his musical penny-a-liner for something infinitely beyond it in capacity to please. His musical spirit is refining. And finally he will throw the banalities that formerly delighted his dreams on the ash-heap. What is true of the music machine is also true of the theatre. Vaudevillains will tell you that what once pleased no longer "goes over." Once anybody could enter vaudeville. With a pair of slap sticks and a few old, moth-eaten jokes, a dab of chalk on each cheek and a nose dipped in the rouge-pot, an audience could be manipulated like the dough on the baker's board. Anything "went over." The audience opened its mouth wide and gulped down everything ladled out. "Now," said the vaudeville actor, "It's different. Audiences are colder." It is simply because they are becoming more critical. Not harder to please but more discriminating in their pleasure

A long regime of varying entertainment offered weekly on the tame bill has enabled the audience to exercise an intelligent choice. They have been able to contrast. To weigh. And even the lowest low-brow can see a difference. The same thing is true of the moving picture play. Where gory melodrama and what Is called "wild west" although why wildness should be consigned to the west after the recent revel?.tions of doings in New York and otherwhere in the supposedly sane and safe east, is something of a mystery dramas held the photo-boards, the social comedy, the classic and the dramatization of the familiar novel or poem is seen. The patrons of the photo-play are also becoming more discriminating. They are, indeed, becoming more inclasive. For everybody visits the moving picture theatre nowadays. And almost all, at least of the local houses, run each week, a "current events" series of films. Which are educational and Informing. In fact the general artistic taste as expressed through visits to the varying forms of theatrical entertainment Is seeking a higher level. And It will result in is resulting in an eliminating process the other side of the footlights that will finally cleanse the stage of its chaff. Or at least will effect a separation. It is putting real actors and actresses into Ihe photoplay. The crude amateurs who were wont to exploit their lack of talents before the film-maker will, in a short time, be all relegated to that oblivion from which they sprang. The change is noticeable even to the occasional frequenter of the moving-picture theatre. For not only is the cast of the average picture play more dramatically sophisticated and shows the presence of those familiar with the technique of the stage, but great actors and actresses do not disdain to be reproduced on the screen. Bernhardt, Rejane, James K. Hackett, Rose Coghlan, Chauncey Olcott, Frederick Warde, are names which occur to the writer on the moment. Warde, the great Shakesperean actor, who played "Nobody" In "Everywoman" last season with such eclat, is this year appearing In a combination of recital and picture presentation that Is meeting with success. To return to the music machine as an educative factor. The familiarity of the average person with the musical classics and the best in musical art is a surprising thing. Through the multiplication of musical devices, as the player-piano, the victrola and the varying forms of the music machine, people who would not have the opportunity of hearing good music on account of either environment, opportunity or talent, can become musically sophisticated. The victrola has a new device. Or rather, a new phase of its value

in educative activity has recently been

manifested. And has been taken advantage of by Mr. Ralph C. Sloane, director of music in' the public schools. Through this the student may become familiar with the different instruments in an orchestra as they are presented singly and in ensemble. The voice announces the violin the violin briefly responds. The viola is called and its. tone given. The violincello the strins bass each illustrated. This is an incomparable method of familiarizing the student with the variety of tone and color in the separate classes of instruments the brasses the wood-winds and others being illustrated as well as the strings. Mr. Sloane, when his plan is completed, will have the victrola reproduction first, followed by the instrument itself. One of the difficulties of the average attender of musical events In this country is his unfamiliarity with the various instruments and their sounds, with a- resultant inability to get at the meaning of the composer which Is naturally interpreted through certain mediums of sound. This device of the victrola will do much to obviate the musical difficulties of the average music lover and a generation educated through this medium alone would be so musically enlightened that every means of interpreting musical art would rective enormous patronage.

It keeps perfectly. And you will find it the best cough syrup you ever used even in whooping cough. You can feel it take hold usually stops the most severe cough in 24 hours. It is just laxative enough, has a good tonio effect, and taste is pleasant. Take a teaspoonful every one, two or three hours.
