will be discussions of best methods to meet the demands of Europe and other countries for raw and manufactured materials, and to extend the credit that is so essential. The National Association of Manufacturers comprises six thousand manufacturing enterprises, which produce more than 75 per cent of the entire manufactured output of the nation, and this convention will give their members an opportunity to obtain assuming an intolerable burden of immediate obligations. manufacturers alone can meet these needs on basis of credit, which will enable Europe and the rest Of the world to resume their inter-dependent commerce und thus restore employment and its consequent increased consumption power. American financial interests have familiarised themselves with world problems insofar as the financing of foreign commerce has been concerned, but the manufacturer himself has tacked a broad, intimate knowledge of the necessities of the situation.

Coy Huruphress, 18 years old, 1904 West Thirty-seventh street, Rosedale. received a fractured right leg anil severe bruises yesterday afternoon in a tull from a motor cycle.

Fred Muelhuser. 37 years old, was taken to Generul hospital yesterday afternoon suffering from possible spinal injuries received when a Ford roadster in which he und his wife were riding turned turtle at Thirtieth street and Euclid avenue.

Olaf Choir lYoiu Northfield, sang almost to empty seats. Kansas choral experiences in the past have not all been of the happiest, and this may explain, in part, at least, the emptiness of the parquet. The same thing happened two years ago when the Vatican Choir sang In Convention hall. Community singing is excellent as a means of keeping alive the community spirit, but a public siir- feited with that sort of thing is apt to lose its faitli in the beauty of choral music. It) STOKE FAITH IN BEATTY.

The tit. Olaf singers are quite capable of restoring such faith. They have been wrought into such perfection of style, beautv of tone, sensitiveness to the baton and the music, that it is difficult to believe all this has been produced bv ordinary means. Probably it has not been produced by ordinary means. Director F.

Melius Christiansen is a man of deep religious fervor. It is said much urging was required to induce him to take his chorus on tour and that he still finds the acknowledgment of applause the most difficult of his duties. There is in his choir a soft brightness of tone, an enthusiasm in hewing to the line in complex music, a refinement and delicacy of nuance, that suggests the singers are also governed by emission of tone. The freshness and youthful vitality in the voices is doubt- iess due in part, at least, to the fact that these singers belong to a pioneering people, simple, sturdy, high-thinking.

SOI.Il> BODY OF TONE, All the singing was In English and all unaccompanied. Very quietly, fifty- two young men and women in vestments appeared on the stage and grouped themselves on a temporary platform. As the baton marked the first beat, the body of singers began squarely on the note, with a solidity of tone that seemed almost incredible without accompaniment of any sort and ith nothing visible in way of tuning fork or pitch pipe.

From the beginning, tone was rounded and true. Director Christiansen seemed to play upon the choir as if it. were an organ, producing a pianissimo like the vox humnnua and again like flutes or violins. In the eight-voiced pieces, the play of color often was bright, pale, dark, vivid, weaving the ricli pattern. A FINE IIF-ARD.
