MCDOWELL.Head Resident of the University f'f Chicago Settlement.Why should a University support a Settlement? isa question asked so often by those who do not com­prehend that the Settlement is not a charity but asocial necessity. It is not an impulsive move on thepart of a few" faddists," but a great religious move­ment. John the Evangel said that if we love not ourbrother whom we have seen, we cannot love Godwhom we have not seen.The University should support a Settlement be­cause the movement, like all the great social andreligious movements, has found in the great univer­sities its inspiration. The idea in its modern phasebegan its -growth in Oxford and Cambridge, "theidea of sharing the life of the poor by universitymen." Mr. "rood says: "The movement owes itsorigin to no one person. It has been - a gradual de­velopment, which has taken up elements from theteaching and influence of nearly all the great spirit­ualleaders of the universities during the last thirtyyears."Ruskin and Prof. John Richard Green stimulatedsuch young men as Edward Denison and ArnoldToynbee. Toynbee was one of those who followedRuskin from his lectures on Art to make a piece of road-which it is said they did very poorly-but bydoing they proved to themselves at least that all hon­est work is related. It was such teaching that ledthe most scholarly and spiritual men, when they leftthe university to go to East London, taking with themuniversity traditions and much that was best of theiruniversity life. They did not cut themselves offfrom their rich past, but gave themselves, with allthey were, to the study of conditions among the poorand the working people.Edward Denison, a Cambridge graduate, left a lifeof wealth and high social position. Arnold Toynbeein 1875 offered himself, with all his spiritual power,as a resident in Whitechapel, where now standsToynbee Hall as a tribute from his college, 'a settle­ment supported generously by Oxford money andbrains.It does not take a high flight of the imagination tocatch a glimpse now and again of the real builders ofour universities. All thinking people know that ittakes more than money or buildings, teachers or stu­dents, to realize a university that has a divine rightto stand with the great ones of the world. Thisdivine right comes from our grateful acknowledgmentNine hundred attended the Christmas concert.The Sewing School has one hundred seventy chil­dren ; the children's chorus one hundred fifty; theKindergarten, seventy children between the ages ofthree and five.There are seventeen clubs and ten classes. TheOrpheus Choral Union, The Unity Club, The Wo­man's Club, and The Excelsior Club together have amembership of one hundred fifty adults.The Library has one hundred and seventy whodraw books.The Savings Bank has one hundred depositors.Six hundred people have received aid through theFriendly Visitors, organized by the Bureau of Chari­ties and having headquarters at the Settlement.There are six resident workers, seven neighbor­hood helpers and fifteen regular workers from theUniversity; one student resident from the Universityof Chicago, and one graduate resident from the Uni­versity of Wisconsin and twenty-five helpers from thecity.728 UNNERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.of that spiritual inheritance which is the gift of allthinking, feeling, scholarly spirits of all the race.Those great spirits who struggled with poverty, wholived the common life and made it ideal, who gave tothe race the result of this struggle that our beautifulquadrangles might be vitalized with the highest spir­itual culture, and with that an ideal of life that includesa spiritual debt of gratitude to the past,-a debt pay­able in the present, a debt as real as any we owe to thephilanthropic spirits of to-day. Let us give all honorto the benefactors of the present who have made pos­sible this beautiful Quadrangle where dwells the Uni­versity Invisible. Our debt cannot be paid with noiseand words, but demands our best life-demands thatwe give back to the race, not a fractional part of it,but to the struggling, suffering, ignorant whole-ourown selves, that we may gain the life abundant, andat last enter into the larger meaning of the GreaterUniversity, the one not made by hands.The Settlement is the objective side of this idealwhich many believe in and long to realize. It is in asmaller sense the expression of the democratic. ideawhich would give to all men an equal chance to theopportunities for culture they need, whether they areconscious of it or not.Some Facts Abo.ut The Settlement.It is situated at 4655 Gross Avenue, near the cor­ner of Ashland avenue and Forty-seventh street, atthe terminus of the Forty-seventh street Electric Rail­road. The Settlement Hall is at 4647 Ashland ave­nue. It comes in touch with fifteen hundred peopleweekly.Five hundred have looked at the pictures, on exhi­bition this week in Settlement Hall. EXPENSE.It takes three hundred dollars a month to run theSettlement.The Settlement Board, composed of professors, stu­dents, and three representatives from the SettlementLeague, is responsible for the support, but looks tothe faculty, the students and friends for voluntarysubscriptions.QUERY.Why do not the students organize a ToynbeeLeague, or in some way crystallize the good feelingthat is abroad throughout the University?PI\ TRICK GEDDES I\ND HIS UNIVERSITY HI\LL.In view of the Settlement meeting to be held to-daythe WEEKLY presents illustrations of one of the prom­inent social workers of Europe and his hall. TheUniversity Extension World of January, 1895. sayseditorially:" Professor Patrick Geddes, of Edinburgh, is in allrespects one of the most remarkable and original menof the day. In the field of science he has been one ofthe earliest workers for that newer view of evolution.with which Professor Drummond has lately caughtthe public ear. In art he is by unostentatious, al­most secret, means seeking to restore the slums ofEdinburgh to their pristine beauty. In educationhis is almost the only British name known and ad­mired by the French savants."The People's jOll-rnat, Edinburgh, March 31, l894,;;;ays; " Professor �atrick Geddes is known in Edinburgh,Dundee, and elsewhere as one of our most sensibleand practical social reformers. Some years ago, Pro­fessor Geddes took a small house on the Mound inEdinburgh, and put the University Hall idea intopractice. A few senior students settled with him,and the plan was so well liked that another househad to be taken in Riddel's Court. Since then threeother houses have been opened and a still more im­portant development will take place, when the newpremises at Ramsay Garden are occupied." The organization of the hall is thoroughly demo-­cratic. The men elect a Committee of Managementonce a month. One acts as house-manager, attend­ing to financial and other details, while another repre­sents Professor Geddes in such matters as rent collec­tion. The members are accepted by ballot, and canUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.UNIVERSITY HALL, EDINBURGH.be dismissed if needful in the same way. ProfessorGeddes has the right to interfere in any matter ifasked ,to do so, but that has not yet been necessary.Frequently distinguished university men from Franceand Germany take up their residence in the hall as.members of the hall, or as guests of the students,when they visit Scotland."The house in Riddels Court is rich in historicalassociations, and I believe two royal banquets havetaken place in what is at present the common room.It is quite an old-fashioned building, and the furni­ture and fittings have been selected to harmonize. Inthe new place the same plan will be followed, and al­ready a great quantity of antique furniture has beencollected." To reside in such a building as this will bring apleasure to student life, which in Scotland it has not hitherto possessed. The men will have far finer andmore artistic quarters than they would find in theordinary lodging districts; they will enjoy the closecompanionship of a select number of fellow-studentsand' graduates, and they will have the society of fam­ilies residing in the hall."The interests of the workingman are never for­gotten in any enterprise of Professor Geddes. Inconnection with the University Hall a well-equippedOld Edinburgh School of Art has been organized. Astaff of enthusiastic instructors is giving instructionin architectural work,' building construction, model­ing, wood-work, and carving; besides' painting anddecorating. Attention is being given to the decora­tion of the city, the preservation of its picturesquefeatures, and the construction of the workmen'sdwellings."" IN THI\ t NIGHT HE W 1\5 BETl-<1\ YED.""Why, hello, Fred!" said 1. "Who would haveexpected to see you here?"Fred Tenney is my chum, and a regular shark inbaseball-substitute pitcher his Freshman year, short­stop since tbcn=-and an all-round good fellow, but asfrightened at girt's as a tramp at water. I had neverheard of his calling on a girl sinceI had known him,and he .had been only two clays in college when wemet. 'So I was surprised to see him. I forgot to say he was sitting on the edge of a chair in the receptionroom at Foster, trying to look happy and uncon­cerned. I had just come in myself, having decidedfinally which of five girls wanted most to see methat night. ' .Fred grinned after some effort, and moistened hislips." I came to call on a girl," said he."So I suppose," remarked I. "That's what we729that I must call on this girl at once? I wrote backthat I would-not. Rose sent me a letter that burnedthe box. I must, I had to; she had writtenI would. What would Jennie think if I didn't? Ididn't care what she'd think; but Rose was so cordialand pressing that I felt I had to do it ; so I'm here."" Why didn't you tell me about it? " asked 1." None of your business," said Fred. " Wouldn'thave told you now if I hadn't known what a heatedimagination you've got."Fred must have been even more nervous than helooked. Poor fellow! I felt that I could pity himnow, since I was relieved of thoughts of a rivalry.Howev�r, it would never do to have Fred calling onMiss Dougl iss. She was too much of a queen; shewas sure to fascinate him, and then, as I, said, wherewas I? No, I must get rid of him. '" Fred," said I, "when did you say your cousinwrote you first? ""Six weeks ago, about," he answered."So six weeks ago," said I, cuttingly, "yourcousin wrote to Miss Douglass, also, that she hadasked you to call. Miss Douglass will think. you al­most indecent in your hurry, old man."" Gad!" said Fred. "I never thought of that,she will think I'm a little slow, won't she? But thenI didn't write to Rose right away, and after her secondletter I've been getting my courage up. It took meabout two weeks to do that. That'll explain it."" Precisely," said I. "You tell her that you toldyour cousin, after waiting a while, that you'd behanged if you called on Miss Douglass. Then tellher that when you found out it had to be done, ittook you two weeks longer to get your nerve. She'lllike that. That'll explain it-perfectly.""Well, but what shall I say?" asked Fred." Maybe she won't mind the delay, anyhow.""No, maybe she won't," said I. "But then maybeshe will. You can't take chances with a woman.As far as I can see, Freddie, you're in for a bad quar­ter of an hour. I'll go, myself, seeing that MissDouglass will be so fully engaged. I don't want tobe frozen to death, too.", , No, don't go," said Fred. "She may not sayanything if you are around.""Why, you lump of misery, what do yon thinkshe's going to say, anyhow?" demanded I. " Goingto reproach you, perhaps, for not calling on her?Maybe she's going to remark that you've slighted herbeauty? It's not what she says, it's what she looksthat counts.""Well, what am I going to do?" asked Fred,helplessly. "I didn't want to come at all. I knewI'd get into difficulties.""I'll tell you, old man," said I, "Vou don't reallywant to call on Miss Douglass, do you?"730 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.generally come here for, I've noticed. Any particu­lar girl, or did you just send up your card to anybody who happened to be disengaged ? "" I didn't send up any card," replied Fred."What are you going to do?" I asked. " Waithere till some unfortunate girl comes down, and am­bush her?"" Oh, no," he said. "I sent up my name by theyoung lady at the door. I didn't have any cards."" You might have sent up the Jack of Clubs," said1. " But did you tip the maid?"" No, I didn't. Is it customary? " asked he."It's generally done," said 1. "I don't believeshe took your name up at all, then. I noticed shelooked grouchy when I passed her in the hall."" Oh, I guess she took it all right," answered Fred.., I waited in the hall till I saw her start up.""Deluded lad," said 1. "She may have stoppedat the landing. She must have, or your inamoratawould have come down by this time. But who isshe, anyway? Tell your uncle, Freddie; he may beable to help you a bit."" How so? " demanded Freddie."Oh, how to open the conversation, and how tohold your elbows, and where the soft spots are whenyou want to go down on your knees. I have pro­posed in every corner of this room, to say nothing ofthe rehearsals in front of the mirror, so I know.""She must have been hard-hearted, if you had topropose so many times," said he." Never you mind, old man," quoth 1. "There wasmore than one of her. But who is yours? "" The young lady I've come to call on to-night is aMiss Douglass," said Fred, with an attempt at dig­nity.· 'Singular co-incidence," said 1. "1' ve come tocall on Jennie Douglass myself." And I felt sad atheart; for if Fred Tenney saw fit to make love to agirl, what chance had I, even though I adored her?Fred was both better-looking and more celebratedthan I ; any girl would jump at him. However, thiswas going rather fast; perhaps he wasn't in love withher at all; he might have called to borrow some­thing-a chafing dish, perhaps; Anyhow, I couldout-talk him, I felt sure of that. I said:". Fred, what are you calling on Miss Douglassfor? "." Because I've got to," said he.That didn't sound like an impassioned lover, and Ifelt better." Got to? " said I, "Does she owe you money?""Not that," replied Tenney. "My cousin, whommay the gods reward as she deserves, happened toroom with this Freshwoman in prep. school last year.That wasn't my fault, was it? Well, then, whyshould Rose write to me six weeks ago and tell meUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY."The Lord knows not," said Fred, fervently."Well," said I, "you slip away quietly and I'll makeit all right with her. When she comes down I'll tellher that the maid made a mistake in the name (ournames sound something alike, you know,) and she'llnever know the difference..."" But how will I square it with Rose? " said Fred.. " Who's Rose? " said 1. "Oh, your consin. Well-tell ber you called when Miss Douglass was out,and insist in being let off in future. She'll do it ifyou're firm."" George," said Fred, "you're a trump. I'll do it. I wish I had told you before. The excuse would havegone just as well then, and I needn't have got intothis thing, "-indicating with scorn his evening dress."You'd better run along," said I, "she may catchyou in the hall."He went at once, casting looks of gratitude at me.As for me--I had a very enjoyable call with MissDouglass, and, I am convinced, still stand first in heraffections. I also possess the thanks and admirationof my chum, who regards me as quite Machiavelian.So I am, too--but not as he thinks. For, like Ju-das, I betrayed him with a caress. J. W. LINN.Reception To-day in Walker.The officers of the University Settlement have ar­ranged a pleasant program for this afternoon, in whichstudents and instructors are invi ted to take part.At 2 o'clock sharp a meeting will. be held in KentTheater, with President Harper in charge. Brief,pointed addresses will be made by Rev. Jenkin LloydJ ones, Miss M. E. McDowell, Head Resident of theSettlement, and probably Miss Jane Addams, Head ofHull House. The Settlement children's chorus ofone hundred voices will sing, and the Glee Club willrender that popular selection, "The Three MillionDollar Song."At 3 o'clock a Settlement social and reception willbe held in Walker Museum. Refreshments will beserved, and several selections will be sung by theGlee Club.Although the Settlement is in great need of funds,no collection will be taken at either place of meeting.The purpose will be to bring together as many mem­bers of the University as possible in an informal way,to learn something of this work and what is beingaccomplished.It is the hope of all the friends of the Settlementthat this day can be made a memorable one as the be­ginning of a new and deeper interest in the work onthe part of the students of the University. Of thework itself, of its abiding value, and great possibili­ties there is 110 longer any doubt. What it needs nowis full and sympathetic support from the University.Church Dedication.The new chapel of the Hyde Park Baptist church,at Woodlawn avenue and Fifty-sixth street, will bededicated Sunday afternoon, Feb. 9. Rev. J. B. Jack­son, a former pastor, will conduct the service. Thesermon will be by Rev. P. S. Henson; the dedicatoryprayer by Rev. L. A. Crandall. Members of the Uni­versity are invited. The beautiful 'edifice llOW com­pleted is a credit to those who built it, and will addgreatly to the ch urch facilities of this vicinity. Library Club Meeting.At the last meeting of the Chicago Library Club itwas decided that the members should make an effortto organize a State Library Association. A call wassent to librarians and boards of trustees of public andcollege libraries to a meeting for organization to beheld January 23, at Springfield, in the Senate cham­ber of the capitol. The University was representedat the last meeting by its librarian, Zella A. Dixson,and M. A. Hardinge.Three sessions were held; the evening one beingan informal reception tendered by Miss Hinrichson,in charge of the state library. At the close of theafternoon session Mrs. Dixson organized a college sec­tion of the association including among its chartermembers librarians from eleven colleges and librariesworking in connection with educational institutions.The work of the college section will include discus­sion of questions relating to problems pertaining ex­clusively to libraries connected with institutions oflearning.Prospects for a Boat Course.The decision of the Supreme Court regarding theownership of Wolf Lake and the surrounding prop­erty may indirectly be of interest to the University ofChicago. It is rumored that Mrs. Edward Roby,who is a warm friend of the University and of Presi­dent Harper, has in mind to tender to the Univer­sity the use of the lake for boating purposes when­ever the time shall come that the University feels thenecessity of branching out in this line. This wouldprobably include land for a boat-house, and besidesthis there has been talk of establishing an inland ex­perimental station for biology in this neighborhood.There is no doubt that this would prove the bestwater course possible since the midway canal schemehas been indefinitely postponed. Lake Michigan can­not be satisfactorily used for racing purposes andWolf Lake is the only body of water within compar­atively easy reach of the University, unless it be theCalumet river between Blue Island and Riverdale.731might better not have been changed, as was askedby Iowa. The greatest care was not used in select­ing judges; and it is thought Chicago chose theharder side of the question. As a University we havehardly begun to debate. No one can tell what possi­bilities are before us; but the preliminary arrange­ments are exceedingly important. We cannot regardthem too carefully. Many a victory is won before thebattle.732 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLYPUBLISHED WEEKLY IN THE INTEREST OF THE STUDENTS OF THEUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO.EDITORIAL BOARD.FREDERICK DAY NICHOLS,WILLIAM PIERCE LOVETT, MANAGING EDITORASSISTANT EDITORASSOCIATE EDITORS:G.

" how it was" that we lost the debatewith Iowa, but we may well be looking forward.And there appears to be, from what we can learn, alesson in the recent defeat. Iowa won fairly. Atthe same time, had the local management been fromthe beginning a little different, perhaps Chicagowould have won. Besides having -the place in itsfavor, Iowa had also, if there was any choice, the ad­vantage in time, question and judges. The WEEKLYis of the impression that the date originally fixed Dr. E. G. Hirsch has received a callHIRSCH CALLEDTO'NEW YORK. to the pulpit of Beth El congregation,New York City, one of the strongestJewish churches in this country. If the call is ac­cepted, not only will Chicago lose one of its best citi­zens, but the University will be deprived of a mostcapable, scholarly and loyal professor. It is to behoped that Dr. Hirsch will decide to remain in Chi-cago.COLUMBIA Considerable attention is centering on theDEBATE. proposed debate between Chicago and Co­lumbia College. The contest will be, in a sense, Eastagainst West. Imagine representative's of New YorkCity and Chicago in such a struggle! Manifestly theUniversity must put forth such effort as it has neverput forth before. And none can deny that the proj­ect is undertaken here with the greatest enthusiasm.Candidates for the preliminary are presenting them­selves in groups of five and ten. The OratoricalAssociation has had to make hardly an effort.The question of eligibility has been perplexing,but will probably be settled easily when the final dis­cussion takes place. Columbia wants to admit allUniversity students, without regard to department.Here opinion is divided between admitting and ex­cluding graduates.INTERCOLLEGIATE Intercollegiate literary contests areLITERARY CON- just at present attracting a greatTESTS. deal of attention in the collegeworld. The recent and the prospective debatingcontests have awakened an interest in our own insti­tution such as has never before been known here.With this discussion, criticism of the present plan ofarranging intercollegiate contests has not been want­ing. At the time the Oratorical Association was or­ganized it was of necessity a local literary society; andbeing the only organization in the field, likewise as­sumed control of all general contests. Through thisUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.agency our institution received recognition in theNorthern Oratorical League. For all this, this pio­neer organization is deserving of praise.Since that time, however, local literary societieshave grown up, and the Oratorical Association is nowperforming only the duties of a general organization.This is as it should be, yet it is important that theplan of the general organization be in many respectsvery different from that which was found to be neces­sary at the tim" of its organization. Some planshould be devised by which every student of the Uni­versity interested in literary work should have a voicemore directly in the general organization. The WEEK­LY understands that a committee has been appointedto revise the constitution of the Oratorical Associationand fit it to the changed conditions. Criticism shouldbe withheld until this committee has acted.OBSERVANCE It may not be inoportune at the presentOF HOLIDAYS. time to say a word concerning the ob­servance of holidays by University students. Wepresume the University officials usually have somedefinite reason for granting holidays,-the commem­oration of some event, important for its national orlocal significance, or perhaps that the day may be de­voted to the accomplishment of some definite end.Too often in our own institution has it been the casethat the students wholly neglect that for which theday was set apart and consider it merely as anotheropportunity to make up neglected work or to attendan opera or concert. The University grants its stu­dents the utmost freedom, but we should not thought­lessly neglect the duties we owe to the institutionand to ourselves.To-day is the Day of Prayer for Colleges. All reg­ular University exercises have been suspended, but intheir stead' special exercises have been provided.This is a student's day-a college day. A specialeffort has been made to prepare a program fitted tothe needs and tastes of students. The addresses ofthe day will be delivered by scholarly men, men whoare in touch and sympathy with active and progres­sive life. Shall we ,not for to-day lay aside our otherduties and put ourselves in perfect spmpathy with thepurpose of the, holiday,-the development of thehigher and nobler impulses of our natures? Light and Ventilation.The reign of darkness about the campus at night isdoomed to a speedy end. Two weeks will see twelvearc lights at a height of twenty-four feet at variouspoints of vantage on the quadrangle.A dynamo plant has been placed in the engine-roomadjoining Beecher Hall, which will generate the elec­tricity. The primary object of this plant is not tofurnish light for the campus and University buildings.Sanitary considerations called it into being. Theventilation at Cobb Hall and Kent Laboratory has notbeen what the University authorities have desired.At the latter place, the odors arising from the chem­icals, have at times been extremely disagreeable.Consequently the trustees voted a dynamo plant tooperate the fans in the basements and attics of Cobband Kent. Superintendent Parker, however, saw theopportunity of furnishing light as well, so besides thetwelve arc lights, 800 incandescent lights will beplaced in the various buildings. The apportionmentis 300 to Cobb Hall, 300 to Haskell Museum, ISO toRyerson Laboratory, and fifty to Kent Laboratory.The location of the arc lights so far as determined,places one in front of Kelly Hall, Haskell Museum,Middle Divinity, Cobb Hall, Kent Laboratory, WalkerMuseum, Ryerson Laboratory, "gym" and 58thstreet entrance to campus.The engine to run the dynamos is roo-horse powerand can carry 100 pounds of steam. Next fall, it isexpected to extend the system of incandescent lightsto the dormitories.The Question of Latin.Whether or not Latin shall remain as an entrancecondition for students in the scientific department,was the bone of contention at the faculty meetingheld last Saturday. The final decision in the matterwill be made at the next meeting.The plan as championed by a majority of the scien­tific faculty, is to remove Latin from the requirementsfor scientific students, thus necessitating additionalwork in the preparatory school, as the University doesnot deem it expedient to abolish Latin altogether.On the other hand, the classical faculty and a minor­ity of the faculty from the scientific school oppose themeasure on the ground that the admission of studentswith poor preparation in the lower schools wouldlower the standard <and react to the disadvantage ofall concerned. Arguments and precedents, pro andcon, are cited to uphold both positions. Meanwhile,classical students unaffected by the proposed change,may plod on unconcernedly through Caesar, Ciceroand Vergil. 733President Cleveland has accepted the invitation toA College Settlement-Your receipted bill' for the deliver. a speech to the Students of Princeton, at thequarter.

He thinks the ideaof a dual meet between the East and the West is agood one and urges the different colleges in the Westto be alive to their opportunities. He thinks theEast has the better of the West in some of the events,noticeably in the hurdles and long distance running.In the short dashes the Western colleges show thebetter talent, and in the field events the two standabout even.Mr. Cruru's ·suggestion as to the importance ofearly and decisive action is timely, and coming as it. does from one so well versed in college athleticsshould serve the purpose for which it is intended­namely, to arouse enthusiasm in the proposed meet.Basket-Ball for Women.Three basket- ball teams have been organized in thewomen's gym. and the following captains have beenelected: Miss Glenrose Bell, Miss Ruth Moore, MissMargaret Ford.The teams will have official practice twice a week,to train for the spring match games. It is possiblethat the teams will challenge the Hull House teamand accept challenges from Lake Forest and Madison.It is reported that the London Athletic Club willchallenge the New York Athletic Club to engage ina series of field sports to take place in London onJuly 11. The English team will be selected from allamateurs in the United Kingdom, whether membersof the L. A.

Rubenstein, Schubertand Schumann are the composers whosecompositions have been chosen, and Mrs.Fannie Bloomfield Zeisler is the soloist.The program opens with Schumann'sgraceful overture, Scherzo and Finale,opus 52, one of the most pleasing of thisdelightful composer's works. It is re­plete with delicate imaginings and a fit­ting prelude to the colossal fourth Con­certo of Rubenstein to be rendered bythe orchestra, assisted by Madame Zeis­ler. Of the Concerto it is enough to saythat Rubenstein wrote it for his ownperformance. It requires such physicalmight that it seems impossible that sodelicate a person as Mrs. Zeisler shouldbe able to handle it. And yet her firm,bravoura-Iike attack has been likened tothat of the master himself and so remark­ably did Mrs. Zeisler interpret the com­position in Dresden, in 1893, that Ruben­stein added his plaudits to those of themultitude.Schubert's beautiful Symphony, NO.9in C, is the closing number of the pro­gram. This sweet-voiced singer, whodied so early and left behind him such arecord of music, has shown himself athis best in this composition.
