HUNGARIAN CANTOR HAS AMAZING VOICE Rev. L. Tkatch Chanted Hebrew Service in Baritone, Tenor and Soprano ANCIENT JEWISH MUSIC Melodies Old Before Time of Psalmist--Striking Ceremonies Marked Celebration A remarkable religious service took place at the Monument National last. evening, when a large congregation of Montreal's Jewry gathered to worship at a service conducted by Rev. L.

Tkatch, of Buda Pesth, who is making a tour of Canada and the United States. It is claimed by European Jews that Rev. Mr. Tkatch has one of the most remarkable voices of any Cantor in the Jewish world. His singing last evening amply bore out the claim.

The only voice heard within memory in Montreal that bears any resemblance to Cantor Tkatch's was that of Dr. Wallner, the famous German singer, whose singing was a remarkable combination of interpretation, vocalization and personal magnetism. aided by a somewhat extraordinary voice. Cantor Thatch's methods were similar, save that he had a much more remarkable voice, with sutroundings that impressed both eye and emotion, as well as ear. For over two hours he the weird Hebrew religious melodies, whose origin was lost in the mists of antiquity, and it was a inarvel how the cantor preserved his tone and the sense of religious tragedy which go murks the singing of the greatest cantors.

His voice would be hard to describe. At times it was a vibrant baritone. Then he would rise in emotional fervor to a resonant tenor, generally culminating in a climax, marked by a catch in the breath similar that occasionally used by Caruso to emphasize dramatic passages. Then the Cantor would pause, look at his Hebrew psalmody, and continue with a sweet melody in a quiet high soprano, neither feminine nor falsetto, with an effect that was almost uncanny. His music and chants were all sung in the Hebrew, to tunes ol chants that were perhaps even older than the words, although experts in such music said that Cantor Tkatch had modernized them a good deal, and introduced melodic variations that were different to the more archaic forms.

EXTRAORDINARY RANGE. In their essence the chants, with their strange iteration of themes, the addition of roulades and grace notes, and the Changes cf voice, were similar to many of the older forms of music in Japan, China. Russia, and the more oriental parts of European Russia, from which latter music the Hungarian Cantor had probably adopted his methods. However he derived them they were singularly impressive, even to ears unaccustomed to such music, ospecially when coupled with his extraordinary range and quality of voice. The surroundings added to the impressiveness of the music, The Cantor's recitatives were entirely unaccompanied, in the Russian manner.

save for a male choir of boy's and men, conducted by Mr. S. Skolnck, whose subdued accompaniiments, with the typical Russian double bass foundation, were very impressive, the cecasional periods of antiphonal singing being carried out with exact harmony. Back of all was the fact that the Monument National had been converted into the aspect of a Jewish Synagogue, with a reredos bearing the orthodox Hebrew markings, the Cantor wearing his sacerdotal robes, in the Hungarian style, and the choir similarly attired. The congregation was composed of a reverent gathering of Hebrews, men greatly predominating, all ceremonially wearing their hats.

Similar services will be carried on by Cantor Tkatch this morning at the Monument National, lasting until one o'clock. MONTREAL REPRESENTED Artistic C.P.R. Exhibit Shown at Toronto Fair Montreal is well represented in the artistic exhibit prepared by the Canadian Pacific for the Toronto Exhibition. Three Montreal artists, Adam Scott, James Crockart and Austin Cooper, of the Shagpat Studio, have collaborated in an ingenious moving panorama in colors which shows Canada from coast to coast in a consecutive landscape such as one might see from the windows of an imaginary train covering the four thousand miles in four minutes. The panorama is electrically driven, and by an ingenious scheme of lighting gives the effect of moving pictures in color, while yet retaining the quality of a painting rather than that of a photograph.

The display of autochromes by Miss Olive Edis, F.R.P.S., who did color photography in Western Canada last year, is another feature of the exhibit. Its interest is emphasized by the fact that Her Majesty Queen Mary paid a surprise visit to the London office of the Canadian Pacific Railway recently, requesting to see these photographs of the Rockies in color. The natural-color photographs taken in the vicinity of Lake Louise are particularly fine. Sir James Dewar, an eminent English scientist, says that Miss Edie has mastered the art of producing I soap bubbles that are permanent. "That may sound Sir James, "for naturally you connect the idea of soap bubbles with something ephemeral, perishable.

One moment it is an iridescent beauty floating in the breeze, and the next moment it has burst and vanished." Sir James has discovered that by producing bubbles in pure air in an air-proof chamber, the life of the bubbles may be prolonged for hours but for years. However. Miss Edie, through her color photographs of bubbles, has produced a bubble which will last for generations. The visitor on entering the Canadian Pacific exhibit Is confronted with an ingenious map of Canada, electrically operated to display sixtyeight of the most important resources of the Dominion by areas. There are three thousand lights so planned as to show all resources and points of travel throughout the country.

The whole exhibit is governed by al cottage design with lattice effects, the coloring scheme being blue, white and orange, resembling a Japanese pagoda. The complete exhibit, with its fruits, grain, minerals and other natural resources, together with electrical effects, typifies the opportunities that Canada offers tO the tourist and to the manufacturers.

AVIATORS RETURN AFTER RECORD TRIP Non-Stop Flight to New at 120 -Lunch at 6,000 Feet Mr. Adelard Raymond returned to Montreal yesterday morning from New York, after breaking all records for a non-stop flight between Montreal and New York, making the trip in three hours and ten minutes, which meant that, on the route they followed, the junker machine was doing an average of 120 miles an hour.

Mr. Raymond piloted the machine for the whole trip, assisted by J. A.

Crossfield, who served in the air with them overseas. "It was the most delightful trip ever made," said Mr. Raymond yesterday. "The Junker had plenty of power for high speed, and worked so perfectly that we made the whole distance without the least hitch. It is so arranged that two pilots can sit in front, with dual control, 50 that either pilot can alternate left the Bois Franc aerodrome at 1.50 oft Tuesday, and flew over Plattsburg, Lake Champlain, Lake George, and then followed the Hudson River, flying over Albany on the way to New York, and had a wonderful view of big city, before we flew over to landing field at the Long Island, making the trip in three hours 10 minutes, the fastest yet recorded.

Most of the way we flew at about 2.500 feet, although going over the Adirondacks, where the mountains are high. with 50 miles devoid of a landing spot, we rose to 6,000 feet. It was while at this altitude that we had an excellent lunch in the clouds, which was greatly enjoyed by the whole party." Mr. Raymond said that the trip was the most beautiful one he had ever made from a scenic point of view, the spread of country from Lake Champlain over Adirondacks, when seen from the altitude of their machine being one of enduring charm. At New York the party were taken to the Hotel Bitmore, where they met a number of New Yorkers interested in aviation, and were hospitably entertained.

Snails Move Upwards A snail that is placed on an inclined plane always crawls toward the highest part, Georges Dombreval, the French aviator, once placed on the upper plane of his airplane eighty-eight pounds of snails, twothirds of which were the large snow snails of Bourgoyne. After rising to a height of perhaps 1,500 feet he was able to take his hands off the controls for the rest of the two hours of flight. Whenever the machine dipped, either laterially or longitudinally. the snails moved in a mass toward the upper, part of the plane and re-established the Companion.
