WASHINGTON, D. C, June 17. The music of the bells is gaining favor in this country. Another church in this city has just installed a chime of bells, and Washington for blocks around leans out of Its windows or stands on the street every evening listening to the concerts. Under favorable conditions, that is

on a clear day with traffic at a mini

mum, the bells can be heard for three miles, so that people who are not radio fans get music regularly from the air

anyway. The distinctive feature of this chime is that it can play "The Star Spangled Banner," a feat which only three other sets of chimes in ' the country can equal. Patriotic Americans who have recklessly tried to reproduce this piece

with their vocal chords will remember that the patriotic air runs the gamut of the best part of two octaves. Most sets of Chimes have about 11 bells. This set was to have 14, including several half tones, but a fifteenth bell was added expressly so that the unofficial national anthem might be played. The new chimes belong to the Church of the Epiphany, and are a memorial to the late rector, Dr. Randolph McKim. As the church is the center of Washington's downtown shopping district the music of the chimes reaches large audiences, especially when programs are given at noon. Such music is rather a novelty for most American cities. A good many churches that have a peal of bells rarely play them, and still more rarely give programs of any length. Few people who hear the tunes played by the Epiphany chimes have any idea of how the bells are rung. Some wonder whether the ringer pulls on a series of ropes, or whether he goes from one bell to another striking each

with a hammer, somewhat as a xylophone player strikes his notes. Considering that the largest of these bells weighs more tha ntwo tons and is five feet in diameter, and some of the others are very little smaller, these methods would be obviously impracticable. No player, however agile, could play a

tune by leaping from bell to bell, sounding each with the proper stroke. How Chimes Are Played Instead, the bells are played from an instrument very much like an organ console. This instrument is near the top of the bell tower. To reach it the player climbs the tower by ladders

fastened to the walls. The console is the only article of furniture in the little tower room, for the bell ringer wants nothing to dis

tract him. He must concentrate entirely on the business of getting clear tones from the bells. The chime player of Epiphany says that when he is playing he can not have anyone else in the tower with him. No matter how quiet a companion might be, the player would be conscious of another presence

The latest invention to be announced in Washington, D. (X, imthe peculiar looking machine known as a helicopter which the

inventors, Emile and Henry Berliner of College Park, Md., say is capable of rising perpendicularly and flying forward. The Berlin-

ers have been working on the invention for nearly twenty years. The navy soon will test the craft.

and at a moment when his attention was divided he might strike the wrong bell. "And if you do that," the player added, "it is certainly sounding your mis

take from the housetops." There Is nothing, he explained, to cover up the false note; no harmony of sound as on the piano. The melody is carried by the bells, one note at a time as on a violin or horn, except that the significance of 'each note is even more striking in bell music. In a chime rendition the reverberating, clear cut tones of the bells make every note of the piece stand out in pitiless relief pitiless that is, if you make a mistake. The bells are struck by an elaborate arrangement. The wooden console has

a row or leatner-coverea wooaen roas which rise above the console and are in turn connected with the bell clappers in the story above by a system of chains running over pulleys. To strike a bell the player presses the proper lever down firmly about eight or ten inches. Producing this sort of music is good exercise as it requires steady use of the arm muscles and incidentally of a good many other muscles in the body. However, considering that six of the fifteen bells weigh more than 1,200 pounds, the

exertion required to ring them by the

levers is slight. The bells in the story above the con

sole are arranged in a square of two! tiers. With the network of chains they fill the entire loft. They are so heavy that the church tower had to be considerably strengthened to hold them safely. The whole set weighs 18,590 pounds. The largest of these bells weighs 4,300 pounds and from this, the lowest note in the scale, the bells grade off

lighter until the bell with the highest note weighs only 225 pounds. This is not a record breaking light weight for a musical bell. In four octave carillon, such as may be heard in Belgium, the highest toned bell sometimes weighs as little as eighteen pounds. Long Popular In Europe Though bells are coming into popularity in thi3 country, for war memorials and in church steeples, chimes and chime players have not yet been given the recognition here that Europe has accorded them. For more than four centuries the bells have held a high place in the life of towns of Europe, especially in Belgium and Holland. Many of the larger cities in this part of Europe have carillons, containing several octaves and attuned to

the chromatic scale. Some towns have as many as forty-five or fifty hells In carillon sets of bells. How popular they are in these countries may be seen from the estimate that there arc about one hundred carillons in Holland and almost as many in Belgium. During the war some of the Belgium sets were wrecked by German troops and valuable old bells were melted down to make ammunition. This was a cause of great indignation among the Belgians, who look upon

their bells as old and treasured possessions.

The player of the chimes abroad has

always been a figure of local impor

tance and a musician of distinction. Often he holds office from the city

officials. Every day or at times he

gives the townsfolk a concert of old melodies, hymns, folk songs, even

classical selections, through the round,

sonorous notes of the bells. William G. Rice, an authority on the carillons of Europe, says in his book on the subject that the bells in some towers have been played for a hundred years or more on fixed days and at the same hour. When the bell master in one Dutch town obtained permission to play at an unaccustomed hour for the

benefit of Mr. Rice, the inhabitants of the town were so startled by hearing! the bells at the unusual time of day ;

situation at great length. How firmly rooted a tradition chime

playing is in these countries is shown ;

by the requirements of a carillon player, in 15S7, as described by Fourdin. He says that even at this time the carillon was already perfectly organized at' Nivelles. The player took

charge of the bells and sang in the choir "as much as possible." In return for these services he drew a salary of 200 French pounds and six measures of wheat, besides what he could earn

from playing at weddings and special services. An interesting demand on this carillonneur was that he must teach his art to some child from the orphan house, designated by the magistrate. And the writer adds that the aldermen of this town exhibited still more their love of the bell music: "They established a carillon composed of seventeen little and greater bells, Intended to provide for the musical instruction of the children, the future carillonneurs." This was in the sixteenth century, and Belgium and Holland have never lost their interest in bell music. Some

l of their finest bells have been com

pared in artistic value to the violins of Cremona. Perhaps more than anything else such a comparison suggests the possibilities of the chimes.
