The receipts and attendance for the first week of the ninth annual municipal opera cycle In this city were greater by far than those of the opening of any previous season at the open-air theater In Forest Park. "Robin Hood" was the attraction and the DeKoven opus proved to be an excellent vehicle to display the talents of the many newcomers among the municipal opera principals. More than 60.000 persons attended the seven performances of "liobln Hood" and the resulting ticket sales approximated 130,000, which exceeds by 6,000 th Intake for the Initial week of any former season.

The staff of critical doctrine crumbles before the uncharted experiment of modern expressionism, and the only rofuge of a harried reporter Is the old comfort of plain people: "I may not know art. but 1 1 know what I like." At the Scarab club, whore four adventurous experimenters have hung their findings, there Is need for such comfortable conceit. One is quite apt to murmur Insulting reflections on the taste of life-long friends If they don't like the same contortion that appeals with unerring distinction at the moment. You pick your favorites and you back to win, but It's all good clean fun, from a fair field, and the strongest lungs win In the end. After careful consideration of my own favorites, I advance only one with any hope of support.

Jay Iloorsma's Javanese Dancing Girt Is so instinct with langouroua grace and undulating rhythm that her appeal must be universal. She pauses, balanced between shifting postures, agslnst mellow flare of fan-shaped flashes of golden light. Brown flesh wrapped In copper colored batik sarong, patterned faintly In lush black flowers, the curves of her motion are slowed and concentrated within broad black hands. On the other hand, Mr. Booratna's Madonna and Child, though It undoubtedly has ardent adherents guided by my own creed of owning personal preference only.

It is based on folk songs of the Near Eastern countries, and embodies the combination of Oriental and Slavic Influences which are the foundation of I-evantlne music. The Rovlnsky aonatina of course Interprets this material in a highly modernised Idiom.

Background for the new work was obtained by the pianist-composer during his years in Kuroue. He passed much time In the Near East studying folk lore and folk songs. He lived among the people and listened to the peasant music, working out many of the peasant legends and traditions that It pictured. From this close affiliation with the muslo of these countries, he has frequently adapted a part of their musical Idiom Into his com positions. His transcription of the Volga Boat Song for piano, which was featured on one of his New York nrograma last year.

Is an illus tratlon of his attempt at accurate Interpretation of the blavlc Idiom and feeling. "The Near Eastern peopleg have been greatly segregated, says Rovlnsky. "and have therefore de veloped peculiar rhythms and har monic colorings that partake of their own landscapes and national life. I was particularly attracted with those elements of the Near East which combine the Oriental with the filavle elements. "For Instance.

Transylvania has a large Hungarian population. The cultural Influences are predominant ly Slavic. J'or centuries mis territory belonged to Kusain. Now It Is a part of Koumanla. Therefore Us music, which may at first have been polyglot, has gradually developed to a point where It combines some of the rarer features of three or four musical races.

The same rule applies to the music of the Caucasian peoples. The shifting of populations has tended to produce a result fully as Interesting as that in Transylvania, although the muslcnl level of the product Is lower." Given Degree of Master of Music Earle Grenville Kllleen, professor of music at the University of Minnesota, who delivered the address to the graduating class at the University School of Music, Ann Arbor, last week, had the degree1 of master of music conferred on him by Charles A. Sink, president of the school, in recognition of his excellent accomplishments as teacher and artist. Mr. Kllleen was formerly a member of the faculty of the University School of Music.

But for Mr.

Children's Songs To Be Featured Muslc for children will attract wider share of Interest on the con cert stage next year than ever before. A forthcoming collection of songs for children, to be selected by a Jury under the chairmanship of David Mannes, will have the support of many Influential musical groups.

and several of the leading concert singers and Instrumentalists are preparing to add special programs of children's songs to their next vear's renertolre. A typical program of good music for children has lust been offered by the management or r.siner j.aie. soprano, who will loin with Kather-Ine Oorln, pianist. In presenting this program to college and cmn audience next year. The Dale-Gorln program epens with a piano group consisting of Liadow's "Muslo Box," Mendels sohn's "Snlnnlna- Song." and Pol dint's "Dancing Doll." This is followed by Miss Dale's opening group of songs Nevln's "My Shadow," Lehmann's "Swing Song," and Nevln's "Woodpecker." Miss Oorin's second series of nlano numbers in eludes Debussy's "Little Shepherd Hov" and "Golliwogs' Cake Walk." Then Miss Dale sings Crist's "Lady Bug" and "What the Old ow raio." and the old English folk songs.

"Wraggle Taggle Gypsies'" and "My Man John. In closing the program, Miss Oorln offers Pacquln's Chopin's "Waltz," Chopin's "Butter llv" and Schumann's "Prophet and Miss Dale sings Fischer's "Songs from the Child Garden'" and Brahms "Sandman." Mr. Mannes, In his forthcoming collection, alms to put within reach of children words composed by poets of the day. It is stipulated by the Jury which will decide on the tunes. that they must contain musical Ideas, muwt be direct and not Involved, must be within the range of ordinary voices and be supplied with accompanimf nts as simple as the melodies.

While musicianship Is the most important element to be considered In every work submitted, the sinking qualities of its melody will slso be taken Into consideration. The book, it is anticipated, will contain many of the loveliest children's songs in the language. John McCormack Will Enjoy His First Real Vacation in Two Years John McCormack, who la one of the early attractions of next sea son's philharmonic series, left New York in May to spend the summer in Moore Ah Dev. county Jvimare, Ireland. This Is one of the finest estates not only In Ireland but in the United Kingdom.

It Is the prop erty of the r.arl of Wrogheda and Mr. McCormack has leased it for a number of years. He owns a place nearby but Moore Abbey looked so attractive that when he found it was "to let" he Immediately took It. The estate consists of 1.500 acres. The Abbey, part of which consists of nn old church, was built by monks In the seventh century and contains about 85 rooms.

The river Barrow, which Is considered one of the finest trout fishing rivers in Ireland, passes rlKht through the 5 rounds and Mr. McCormack Intends evoting a great desi of his time to tne sport, in aaoitinn to nsnmir he expects to do a lot of rabbit shooting, tennis and golf plnying, and horse-back riding.

Amid the wailing and berating ef Detroit as barren soil for artists, where a man can't earn himself cheese and crackers by his brush, one man at least ha sat steadily before his easel all year, and ha turned forth a goodly number, SS at least, ot first-class, highly individualized portraits. Philip A. Sawyer returned to Detroit about a year ago. and in hia studio at 92 Peterboro avenue he now has a stack, of canvases with a subject range wide enough to include soldiers, dancing girls, solemn little boys and gay little).

gins in costume, Rumanian women in peasant dress, silver haired old. ladies, society sisters, business men, and plain daughters of the people. He has Just completed a cool grey-blue forecast of the personality of Norman B. Conger, director of the weather bureau. On ttits page la reproduced a picture of Mr.

Sawyer with Mr, Conger and the portrait during the last sitting. A vivid contrast to this study 1 a warm red and blue composition, showing Mr. Emll V'asu and her sister, prominent member of the local Rumanian colony. In peasant costumes they prepared for the coming to Detroit of Queen Marie.

John. Mr. Sawyer' brush-work Is loose and free, to a degree easily appreciated when present work Is contrasted with that he did In Europe several years ago. Hi palette runs the gamut of raw colors, yet they are chosen with a nice feeling for the harmony of material snd purpose. He has a facile gift for getting upon his canvas the person behind the face he Is concerned with, which Is accompanied by the ability to make his portraits recognizable without labels.

Once a sitter was not nattered by the results. "At that." phllosophlie Mr. Sawyer, "the picture looked like her."

Paris, Home, Vienna, Budapest, Warsaw, Brussels, Berlin aud, of course, London, cities of the war. I have lived in all of them during the last year. The only one which has an expansive, contented smile Is Berlin-Berlin today constantly reminds me of a great American town, flushed with post-war prosperity.

Apparently there Is plenty of money. Companleaiare paying good dividends. Unemployment is de creasing, During three week I have seen not one down-at-heel In dividual. Within the last two years the working classes of Germany have deposited close on 000 In their savings banks. Every body la well dressed.

There are no ragged ex-soldiers, showing their medals, twirling barrel-organs and whining tor charity. That there are folk In straitened conditions, fieople whose mosey all vanished the wild Inflation period of five ago, I know; but they are the backwaters of society, and Berlin seems to have forgotten mem. City Is Rejuvenated. Com straight from Pari to Berlin, and you are startled. You exchange the shabblness of the pari boulevards for the bright, bustling rejuvenation of Berlin.

Knormous sums are spent on re construction, rebuilding. Improving roads, erecting new works, providing magnificent railway stations. and putting official Into smarter uniform. Property value slumped durln those nightmare times of Inflation, so speculators today may be said to oe roiling in money. But during readjustment the Berlin authorities slapped something like a 59 per cent tax on nouse property, and with tne money so acquired, thousands or artisans' dwellings have been erect ed in the suburbs.

Imooslng build ings are piling up In the main thoroughfares. The throng of women In the shopping center Is a great as can be encountered In any large American city on a warm after noon. Berlin ha the finest restaurants In Eurone. hundreds of them. and they are all crowded with genial people "doing themselves very well.

Ail places of amusement are crowded. There are lots of night snow or the caDaret sort. America)! I Slogan. Some of the entertainment are of a sort which would not be Der mlttod In any city outside New York. Americanism is the slogan American methods, mass production skyscrapers, and a quite un-Teuton- tp "peppiness" are the characteris tics of Germany capital.

Germany owes a good deal to the united states, wnen, after tne hec tic month of Inflation, Germany steanieq its currency and was ln need of working capital, it was the Wall (treet money-men who gave a helping hand. Within the last three years something not far short of 21,000,000,000 has been lent to Stimulate Germany's energy. Confl dence was well placed, for with hard work the German works hard and plays hard and practically no strikes, It Is no exaggeration to say that something near a boom in enterprise is now In swing. Important men, like bankers and great Industrialists 1 a 1 1 when speaking to Inquiring foreigners like myself keep to the cautious note; but everybody else is buoy antly optimistic. So there has been a dramatic ohanee in Berlin, and even In the psycnoiogy or Berilners.

If Ger. many is poor It seem to have plenty or money to spend on and in Berlin. It Is not all borrowed from America. I know of no other capital In Europe where there Is such evi dence of general well-being. Freuleins Have Improved.

The transformation which inv discerning eye most notes is In regard to the women. We must cease making jokes about bulky-hipped, ill-dressed frauleins. In less than two years, since money seems to have become plentiful, the German woman has grown slim. She car ries herself as well ss the American girl; she has appropriated the vogue of Paris; she has the bright eyes snd healthy complexion of the English girl. Everybody who has esen ivi from Germany for a few years and now returns Is astonished at the change.

Get together a bunch ot rench. English, German snd American young women of today. In carriage and dress von will not be able to tell t'other from which, except that the American o-lrl ever. on the surface a people nrst revea themselves. The Germans are not a gay lot.

though they are trying to make out they are the bright young people or Europe and tne naugnuest; and If tourists, especially Americans with atout wads or dollars. want to have rollicking pleasure Berlin is the place tney should strike for. On mv desk Is a nile of propaganda pamphlets of the gush ing xome to termany sort. The people are out to make the best ot things. Whilst they are fond of dwelling upon their culture especially in regard to drama and music their main aentiment is materialistic: work hard, and make money, and In the slack hour drink and merry.

Doa't Wast Ex-Kalser Bark. Qermany scientifically. In Its laboratories, Is strenuously striving by synthetic production to recover the commercial ground she lost through the war. Meanwhile, enhanced output, reorganisation to reduce overhead charges, fever for efficiency, are carrying Germany to prosperity and nobody Is more conscious of thst than the Germans themselves. I find little concern In politicsmuch less than one would gather from reading the newspapers.

Though there is a royalist party. It Is Inslgniflrsnt. The republic is well founded. When in conversation I have hinted that maybe William II. will he recalled, the answer has Invariably been, "Never, never; never can we take hack a man who ran away from hi country ln its darkest hour.

The old Imperial glory has gone. The venerable and honored Marshal Hindenburgh, president of the republic, sits in hi house on the Wilhelmstrsss smoking black cigars, and hi visitors drive up In taxlcabs without challenge from the policemen at the gates. Nobody ever wears any of the orders bestowed during imperial days; the medal now coveted are those granted for athletics. Title are officially unrecognized, but a republic minister offers no objection if addressed as "Your Excellency." As far as I can gather the only people who stand on their dignity are restaurant waiters. If you call "Kellner," nobody heeds you; but If you address an underling as "Ober Kellner," he will respond: snd the proper way to address the real head waiter as "Herr Ober!" To save waiters from the of taking tips, 10 per cent is added on all bills.

There are excellent taxis with a 10 cent minimum, and the taxi driver In Berlin never ex pects a tip. i There Is today In Germany a ravenous desire to make money and to have a good time. Whilst the sons of former well- known families, who would probably have been haughty srmy officers, have to take what they can find, such as taxi-driving. I discern fervor amongst the working classes, not only to Jump from being ordinary employes snd to put thetr brain to the test In commercial competition, but amongst the young fellows to Improve their chances for sViccess by improved education. College courses for men and women of the working classes are numerously attended by ambitious young people.
