CHOIR BEGINS NINTH TOUR UNDER PROFESSOR MONSON (Continued trom page 1) waking hours—and sleeping hours be-sides. Sacred song—that is the dominating characteristic of the Concordia choir. It must be tempting to show off a group of trained voices by encroaching upon the sphere of instrumentalists through weird and strange tonal effects to make of the choir a multi -phonic for the sake of tonal effects as such; instrument for purely musical effects, common sense that the sphere of a choir But it would seem in the light of mere is to sing; to lend tonal values to that greater value—thought and emotions expressed in words. And when the thought and emotions pertain to the realm of things sacred and divine, the challenge to the art of music reaches the ultimate. Then we have sacred song, to which pure music must hold second place. It seems that such an ideal permeates the program rendered by the Concor-dia choir under the direction of Prof. Herman W. Monson. The keynote is struck in the first number: "Jesu, Priceless Treasure," a five part motet by Bach, whose words and choral melody strikes the heart because both are familiar and carry one upward. In general it can well be said that music serves the text rather than offer-ing a pretext for musical stunts. The somber pleading of Monson's arrange-ment of Rosenmuller*s choral "Forsake Me Not," the doleful gloom of Lotti's "Crucifixus;" the grandeur of Naylor's "Magnificat;" the naive simplicity of the Norse folk-song "Aftenbon" as well as the ponderous majesty of Monson's arrangement of Luther's Battle Hymn of the reformation—all are marked by the composer's fidelity in suiting the music to the thought. And in the ren-dition the director shows a like fidelity in the interpretation of the score. Makes Great Progress Along this line of high idealism in the matter of a choir's true sphere and mission, the Concordia choir has made great progress. By remaining true to this ideal it will establish leadership into paths that may safely be followed. The outstanding mark of improve-ment in the choir as compared with former seasons, is an astounding tonal power. The impression was made that as yet they were not fully aware of the full resources at their command. Aa a result certain passages lacked the finer effects of proportion in dynamics and perfection in balance which no doubt will be acquired in succeeding performance*. Dinner Planned By Omicron Tau Delta A dinner meeting will be held by the Omicron Tau Delta, home econom-ics society, today. Miss Bales of the North Dakota Agricultural college will be the guest speaker. Coeds Study Under Campfire Director; Outing To Be May 7 Mrs, Falley, local campfire director, is teaching a class in campfire instruc-tion at the college on Tuesday after-noons. The remainder of the semester will be spent in studying health craft, pro-gram planning, nature craft, gnd camp craft. The class is planning to spend the weekend of May 7 and 8 at the camp-fire camp on Lake Trowbridge. DurV-ing these two days they will put into practical use all the first hand work they have studied and will close the camp on Sunday evening with the council fire. At this time, the students who have completed their campfire course will receive certificates which will enable them to organize campfire groups. THREE CHAPEL TALKS DELIVERED BY STOEVE Series of Addresses Given On Subject: "Why Do Men Forsake Christ?" Rt. Rev. David Stoeve, president of the North Dakota district, conducted a series of chapel addresses, March 21—23, on the subject "Why Do Men Forsake Christ?" The pivotal scenes of human history have taken place in gardens: fall of man, agony of Christ in Gethsemane, and the resurrection. There is no more tender and touching chapter than when Christ suffered in Gethsemane, win-ning the struggle in "Not My will but Thine be done." Men have always wanted to bury their beloved dead in scenes of beauty. Through the resurrection the ruin of the fall was corrected. Still they for-sook Him and fled. Especially in ages past have persecu-tions drawn men away from God. To-day these negative influences are more subtle—wordly losses or friendships, perhaps. But could we see Christ as God sees, we would see Him for better-ment. One forsakes in moments of weariness. Sin most easily besets us when we are weary. Men forsake the Lord Jesus through spiritual reaction. A high degree of rapture needs relief, Spiritual exaltation is the highest Justified by faith we have peace be-yond all understanding. The hour of reaction is the hour of error. An ad-monition is to watch and look unto Jesus. One must watch with sleep-less vigilance and prayer. Swift and sudden are the crises of the soul In conquering by looking to Jesus one should lift his eyes in dependence and appeal. Then, in fear, weariness, and spiritual reaction we shall never flee, and faith will have made her task complete. Free Conversation Formed at Meeting The German club met on Tuesday evening, March 29. The group sang German songs. Then the audience, forming three divisions, carried on free conversation. Leaders were Helena Erdmann, Manville Gunderson and Miss Sovik. Professor Schoberg was the supervisor. Various members told fairy stories. Spalding Golf and Tennis Goods Spalding Sweat Shirts 79c And this ad. Carlisle & Bristol 67 Broadway Fargo. N. D. C. W.
