John Stewart was visiting in the
Alvord country this week.
{{ THAT is jazz music? So many have asked that question,
W and probably it never will be answered satisfactorily.
Whence did it come? That,too, is an unsolvable mystery.
But it is here—the most extraordinary, remarkable, and to many
thousands of people, the most fascinating music of the dec ide.
That Jazz marks a new era in popular music and dancing is
unquestioned. And just now in New York on the Great W hite
Way and all along the Rialto the great Lobster Palaces are
throbbing and whining with its syncopation—its veritable orgy
of rhythm run riot.
All the hilarity of Jazz that jangles in the cabarets of the Me
tropolis will echo through your own home with true Metropolitan
