the phonetic vowel triangle showing
the position of the primary vowels both

of resonance.
"Like the practice of medicine” said
Mr. Fox "the method of t*adhug sing
ing is empirical based on experience and
enlightened observation and phonetics
provides us with this knowledge which
alone cun give one wisdom. For this
reason the profession can not be statid-
aidized to any extent without lining pho-
neti«*M as the basis plus a highly de-
veloped natural musical talent coupled
with a poetic nature.”
The Chaminade Choral Society under
Director Julian Paul Blitz is enthusi-
a st baity rehearsing two Chaminade
compositions which will be a part of
the Fannie Bloomfield Zeisler program
on Monday night November 3 at Beet-
hoven Hull. The Angelus and the duet
of the stars are considered two of the
rnost beautiful songs written by Cham-
inade the famous French woman r</m-
-pnser.
Mrs. Zeisler is recognized os one of
the world’s greatest pianists and has
achieved many notable triumphs both
in the Uniled States and Europe.
Voice and piano will he beard in a
rare combination here when Rafaelo
Diaz ami Oliver Benton apnear in cou-
cert on the evening of Friday October
24 at Beethoven Hall under the local
management of Miss M. Augusta Row-
ley.
Particular intercut attache' to the per-
formance not only because it will open
the musical season here a season of
unuNual promise but because it brings
back to Hun Antonio a native son who
has achieved fame—Rafaelo Diaz now
Metropolitan tenor.
The early career of the famous young
singer is familiar to ninny friends here.
His first love was the piano and with
aspirations to become u pinnlst. he set
sail for Europe and a musical education
with a few hundred dollars and u steer-
age passage us his material assets.
Going to Germany where hr studied
piano he found himself at the end of
th** first year with expenses paid and
$3(10 in cash. It wasn’t an easy strug-
gle. but hr dismisses it lightly in re-

years old did he seriously consider his
voice. Then through good fortune he
was able to reach Italy where after a
year’s search for the right master he
knocked at the door of the great maestro
Sabatini nnd was admitted.
Young Diaz will by no means hold
the only place on the program for Mr.
Denton American pianist will share
honors. Mr. Denton has not found
genius at the end of an easy path but
by laborious work though he bad not
the financial handicaps of his friend to
contend with. The music critic of the
New York Herald in reviewing one of
Mr. Denton’s concerts said :
“it was a good deal more than enthu-
siasm for the American musical product
whicL won for Oliver Denton a reception
not second to that accorueu to soloists
like Paderewski Guiomar Novars and
Hoffmann. Mr. Denton has a highly
developed technic and a rarely sympa-
thetic nnd compelling method of play-
ing. His tone ami touch are of real
beaUty.”
Percy Grainger the noted pianist
who will appear in concert here next
spring as soloist with the San Antonio
Symphony Orchestra is equally as well
known as a composer by musicians. The
following clipping from the book review
of the New xora Times will be of in-
terest in this connection:
Kipling's poems have been much sung
at public gatherings in Englund ever
since the war began and one English
critic has Mid of the popular devotion
of these songs that “the words of the
"uncrowned laureate’ are the words that
rise most spontaneously to people's lips
these days for they really express what
Britain is feeling.” At a memorial con-
cert recently given by the Festival
Choir at Newcastle-upon-Tyne the chief
feature was the rendering of his “We
Have Fed Our Hea” by a chorus of 1000
voices before an audience of 30000. The
setting had been especially provided by
Percy Grainger.
Mrs. Eli Hertzberg has subscribed to
a box for the entire season of concerts
to be given by the San Antonio Sym-
phony Orchestra as have also Mrs. T.
A. Coleman and Mrs. JI. H. Branham.
According to present indications a large
out-or-town Representation will attend
the conceits eighteen subscriptions hav-
ing gone to residents of Victoria.
Lieut. John Philip Sousa who recently
retired from the United States naval
service after having served throughout
the war as chief bandmaster at the Great
Lakes Training Station baa gathered
his old nnd seasoned bandsmen .about
him once more and is making a compre-
hensive tour of the country for the
first time" in four years.
His band will be beard in San An-
tonio Saturday evening December 27 at
Beethoven Hall under the local manage-
ment of Miss M. Augusta Rowley.
Lieutenant Koum bad full charge during
the war of the training of all the bands-
men who were enlisted fer service in
the navy. On several occasions ns many
as one thousand musicians were under
bis direct control at the naval station.
These wore divided into groups of 250
each under the direction of assistant
bandmasters. Lieiiteenunt Sousa took
turns in directing them and on several
occasions brought the entire thousand to-
gether in one enormous band probably
the largest single group of instrumcit*
talists over beard together at one time
in the recorded history of the world.
The Vatican choirs from Rome will
sing in the Coliseum in Dallas on the
night of December 27 and in the Aud-
itorium in Houston. December 29.
The management has guaranteed the
choirs $lOOOO fnr each performance.
The price of tickets w ill be from $2 to
$7. The lack of an auditorium in San
Antonio prevented the choirs coming
here.
San Antonio friends of Miss Mildred
Gates will be interested in the follow-
ing clipping from the October “Musi-
<ale.” as the young pianist is a native
of this city and has a wide circle of
friends here:
“The first atep. and a long one. to-
ward the development of the Dallas
Symphony Orchestra has been taken
in the securing of Miss Mildred Gates
of Sun Antonio to serve as executive
secretary of the association. Miss
Gates is a musician of talent nnd ex-
perience and hs business manager of
the Son Antonio Symphony Orchestra
two seasons gained an insight of man-
agement that will prove invaluablee in
her Dallas enterprise. At present. Mi-*
Gates is falling on the business aud
professional men of the city enlisting
their support of (he orchestra. She
expects to establish an office in some
convenient downtown location.
Miss Gates spent the summer in Co-
lumbia University studying musical
appreciation and the symphony. She
is a professional accompanist nnd prior
(o her departure for the East was or-
ganist fnr the Travis Park Methodist
Church and the First Baptist Church.

Emmy Destinn Tells of Life as
Prisoner of Austrian Government
Singer Returns to This
Country and Will Become
Full-Fledged American—
Declares She Will Sing No
More German Songs Till
She “Learns to Love the
German.”
After bcin; a war prisoner for near-
ly three years Emmy Destinn has re-
turned to the United Htutcs the land
•be calls "home” and is arranging to
take out her second papers and become
a full-fledged American. The story of
her life as a |>oliticai prisoner nnd of
her planx for the future arc told by
May Ktanlcy in Musical America ns fol-
lows :
When the French liner Lorraine sail-
ed into Now York harbor last week ‘
it carried a pass-cn^cr who has boon
a war prisoner for nearly three years
—Emmy Destinu prima donna ami
patriot. Perhaps it were more fit-
ting to say patriot and priina donna
for the patriotic side of her life has
boon uppermost recently. Mme. Emmy
Destinn returns to America with the
expereience of nearly three years’ im-
prigonment on her estate near Prague
in what is now Uzecho-Slovakia.
We arc so accustomed to hearing
that musicians are n selfish lot. that
they arc self-centered and egotistical |
that we have begun to believe it. This
is one of the reasons that nicke a talk i
with Emmy Destinn n rare pleasure. J
Here is a famous musician a singer ;
whose name is known throughout the ■
world who is proud to have been* a '
political prisoner radiantly happy that I
the opportunity to serve her country !
came unmindful of the fact that it has |
taken three precious years from her
musical a«’tivitieF. Emmy Destinn served '
as truly os the men who took up a ini' |
for the cause in which they believed. I
nnd she is glad that the chance to serve •
was given Iter.
Interneel by Austrians.
It was in the interest of Uzcdio-Slo-
vakian independence Unit Mme. Destinn'
sailed for Europe in th” summer ol
191(1 carrying with her ns a secret scr j
vice agent valuable information f<u i
the forces of freedom in her native land •
Her operations became known to the
Austrian government and Mme. Dcstim
was interned nt her cn. tle near Prague.
For the first year and a half she wat
cut off from the outside world almost
entirely ns political prisoners were un i
der the most rigid Kurvcillonec.
""But I hud plenty to do” Mme. Drs
tinn tells her ryes darkling as she
recounts the incidents of daily living in .
her prison home. "I had thirty peoph •
on the estate ami there is no time foi i
idleness when one has thirty lives de- i
pendent on one in war time. Is it not ;
so? First there was the farm. It
wns necessary that we cultivate every
bit of ground for food and this we did (
And the cows ami chickens of course"
came in for their share of attention i
Then there was splendid fishing on tin ‘
amongst a humlrcd. ami developed
their separate individualities was too
great an artist to run them through
the same mold. Her theories. her
technic they have. For fourteen years
they worked with her. though the oldest
is only twenty-one. They learned the
groundwork of their art with her.”
Philip Hale music critic of Boston
recently characterized Mr. Copeland ns
a remarkable artist adding: "The
piano when rightly played is a v»cu-
liarly intimate instrument. When
played by Mr. Copehind it makes an
individual appeal. Few pianists have
Mr. Copelands touch : few his irresisti-
ble rhythm.” He is a “colorist” who
produces effects of great variety and
beauty.

estate and this meant sport as well a^
a chance to add to our precious food
supply. Ami occasionally there was an
old-iushioncd hunting party in the
woods.”
I Mme. Destinn had no opportunities tc
sing or appear m public during that
first year ami a half but she kept U]
| her daily practice with the most rigid
exactitude. A certain portion of tiui(
each day was allotted to work on concert
songs and operatic repertoire—for won hl
she not be free some day? Her casth
stood on the border between Bohemia
and Austria and each evening great
watch fires were lighted so that Aus
trians .sneaking into the country could
be detected and stopped.
Gate Concerts to Aid People.
Finally came the armistice and with
it the opportunity to help her pvo
pie. Twelve great concerets were ar-
ranged. the first in Prague and tin
proceeds used to alleviate the suf-
fering of those of her countrymen
made destitute in the war. Mme. Des
tinn was the soloist chosen for the great
festival given in honor of Mr. Masaryk
president of Cxecho-Slovakin wheu lit
returned from America.
Going to London after the concert
series in her own hind. Mme. Destinn
gave another great benefit concert foi
her people in Queen’s Hall.
“I did not sing in Paris.” she says
“for the French people could not get it
nut of their mind that 1 was not a
Boche—nnd you may be sure that tin
French ere not welcoming German sing
ers. But I love them” she adde<l witl
a laugh “those nice French people am!
do not mind if they made the mistake
about me —not at all.”
"Will you sing any German music
Mme. Destinn?” was the natural query
Not to Sing German Music.
“No. not any’* came the quick re-
ply. "I do not wish to sing German
Il is very beautiful” she added ipiickly
"very beautiful but to sing well you
must love what you arc singing aud 1
do not love the Germau —yet.”
Mme. Destinn has had some busy
days since landing in America. A con-
cert tour that will take her to all the
larger cities of America is being plan
ned and there will be operatic engage
monts also during the season.
She was going over some new’ song?
when I talked with her examining com
menting. accepting aud rejecting with
the characteristic directness that is s
pad of the Emmy Destinn we know.
"I shall sing a number of English
Mings this season” she said "they an
very lovely many of them. And 1
hqve some Bohemian songs ami songs ol
Uzecho-Slnvakia that have not been
heard in this country. And. of course
French songs and Italian both old and
new.”
In spite of her love for the land
where -he wns born. Mme. Destinn call*
America "home.” Her first papers a>
an American citizen were taken out he
fore she sailed for Europe in 191(1 am'
now wheu the ncceaaary legal formula
is compiled with Mine. Destinn will take
out her second papers nnd become a full-
fledged American. And there is a royal
greeting here for the kind of patriot
that Emmy Destinnova—sho doesn’t like
(he Gorman spelling of her name—has
proven herself to be. She is the sort
of material that assays 100 per cent
American.

MISS RABE OPENS NEW
CURIO STORE AT 211
E. HOUSTON STREET
Rare Relics and Heirlooms
From France Among Of-
ferings to Public.
A new curio store was opened al 211
East Houston Street last week under
the management of Miss Hattie Grace
Rabe. This new store the third to be
established by S. Rabe in San An injo
carries i«i extensive line of ru.'ios
many of which were obtained from Eu !
rope during the progress of the war.!
On n trip to Europe prior to the'
signing of the armistice Miss Rabe
states she was able to secure s great
number of relics from the old cities of i
France which the inhabitants parted I
with rather than have them fall into
the hands of the enemy. These treas
tires she believes would not have been
disposed of by their owners under any
other circumstances.
The stock of (he new store is com-
plete in every detail among its articles
being rare old docks porcelains furni-
ture paintings and tapestries. Among
the furniture of particular interest is a
French bedroom suite obtained Miss
Rube says from a chateau formerly be-
longing to a French countess.
The store itself has been remodeled
and redecorated particular attention be-
ing devoted to bringing about an artis-
tic setting for the many rare curios
and antiques.
It. is Miss Rabe’s belief that this store
will offer article which could not be
obtained on this aide of the Atlantic in-
cluding art treasures from Italy Rus-
sia. France. England and Spain.
San Antonio’s curio stores have jl-
ways proven an attraction for tourists
during the winter months and also to
the many soldiers who were stationed
here during the war. Around holiday
time the soldiers in particular patron
izrd these places sending home to their
parents ami acquaintainccs curios ob-
tained locally usually being distinctive
of San Antonio and Southwest Texas.
