Mrs. Skellenger and chil- German Composer to Gathering. By JOHN D. CLINTON CLEAR knew Brahms." The speaker was Otto Roehrborn at the musical tree dedication at Singing Village Sunday evening. As an interesting experience each evening, Signer Cappelli tells briefly of an immortal asks the villagers to pick out the tree on the campus of Methodist camp which symbolizes the artist mentioned.

Sunday evening the tree chosen was one of the central elms in the double quartet at Elmwood bowl, the camp open-air theater. As Prof. Georg Shapiro drove the nail which should hold the name "Brahms' 1 'upon the tree, one of his artists in his Little Philharmonic of Chicago, spoke up, "I knew Brahms." And then this long time Chicago Symphony orchestra player continued, "I was a student at the Royal high school in Berlin from 1890 to 1892. Brahms came to our school twice a week. His music was difficult to understand, but when you did understand, then you wanted to hear it all the time.

We had a clothing store near the school, from which, if you bought your suit and if it rained while you were out in there was much shrinking of the trousers." It Friend of Schumann. was the conclusion of Mr. Roehrborn. "We always said, Schumann must have bought his trousers there." The senior violinist at Singing Village continued talking awhile, mentioning that Brahms was a good friend of Robert Schumann and his wife, Clara, and that the three often checked on the perfection of one another's compositions. Near the big Brahms elm stood a double elm.

Villagers have a good hunch as to where they may select the Schumann tree when that time comes on the lake shore some night this week at 7:15 o'clock. All day gatherings Sunday at Singing Village centered in music appreciation hours.
