PROF. MATTESON TALKS IN CHAPEL THURSDAY MRS. MATTESON PLAYS Music Most Valuable To Listener When It Awakes Noble Thoughts. . "Music is the expression of the deep est emotions of the human soul," said Mr Matteson, head of the Department of Music at the University, in-a lecture at the regular chapel period Thursday. It was illustrated at various parts by several selections rendered by Mrs. Mat teson. "The value of a Musical Composition," said Mr. Matteson, 'depends on the attitude of the listener. Some people are to music like a dog is to sunshine; a dog may lie in the sunshine, bask in it and enjoy it, but gets no real value from it. So some people are with music. They may sit and listen enjoying it and occasionally have a thrill, but get no permanent value out of it. When music is most valuable to the listener it awakes in him noble thoughts or emotions, or stirs him to action. "When music is fully appreciated," continued Mr. Matteson. "the listener must know a few facts as to how music is made up. All music has rythm, tem vpo. etc.. Each particular kind of music has its corresponding type of rythm, tempo, and pitch. Each composition is built up of motives, or a group of mea st-res which in itself forms a complete thought, or idea, or strain. The whole piece is built up of these motives and modulations amplified and varied in many ways. "All modern music is a development out of. or a breaking away from, the music of the medieval church. To the church is due the preservation and the development of music during the middle ages. However, secular music began with the Greeks, and especially in the Creek theater. "Modern music is probably better ty pitied by dance music." says Mr. Matte son. "This does ilot mean fox-trots and other forms of jazz alone, but the mas lers have written much dance music." - Mrs. Matteson played as illustrations of the dance music of today "German Dance," by Beethoven; "Morris Dance from Country Gardens," Percy Gram ger; "Juba Dance," by Nathaniel Dett. The program was thoroughly enjoyed by the students and each selection play ed by Mrs. Matteson was received with a shower of applause. -U.S.C. iEudnages The Emory Wheel. (Emory University) The Senior Class has gone on record as favoring the publishing of a senior class book, containing a short biography of every man who has been a member of the class, group'pictures of the evo lution of this class from the plane of the lowly Freshman up to the high emi nence that it now occupies in the do mains of the dignified senior. This book will b)e modeled on the class book that Yale publishes. A movement to endow Louisiana Col lege with $390,000 has been undertaken by the Baptists of Louisiana, which when put over will mean more buildings, more courses, improvements on the grounds and a larger faculty; in short, a "Greater Louisiana College."

Bureau of Public Discussion University Extension Division, Columbia. S. C. -U.S.C. When you and I went to college we had to get out and hustle for a job after Commencement. Not so the senior of the present day and generation. If lie's a good man he's either all signed up before graduation or else he's waiting to make his choice from a number of offers. It's startling to see to what extent market conditions have changed in this field. Everybody apparently wants a man who's been through college and has shown ability there. Factories, banks, department stores, public service corpora tions, bond houses, contractors, hotels, railroads-they all apparently want these kinds and they're willing to pay them and to send pretty substantial executives up here to get them on a highly competi tive basis. Reliability, energy, brains, and good manners are being sought after feverishly by this country to-day and any boy whose college record shows him to pos sess those qualities has to watch out or some soulless corporation will kidnap him right spang on the campus. But I haven't seen any executives fighting for the worthless loafers, the parlor snakes, or the lounge lizards. Romeyn Berry in Cornell Aluini News. THE PETREL. THE TRINITY CRONICLE. THE TIGER.
