Following our announcement of last week Uiat new books of inter est to music students would soon be found in the library we take pleasure in saying that they ha 'c been catalogued ;uil accessioned and placed upon the shelves for use. Likewise the Aeir York .1/u --sical Courier, a magazine of cur rent events in the musical world. Students will lind inspiration in reading what others are doing. The Latin tfoiiys are ancient classical lyrics from Catullus and Horace; medieval church hymns, old Christmas carols, folks-songs and lullabies, together with many Latin translations of popular Eng lish and (Herman songs. (Review ed in (iUILFOItIMAN, 15 Oct.) The A fro-, \merican Pollcsonys is a study in the attractive and im portant subject of the songs of the American negro. It is a disputed fact whether or no songs of the ne groes in the United States are worthy to be termed "American folksongs." To determine this question, the distinguished author. Henry 10. Krehbial, has gleaned songs from near and far; he has corresponded with those in close touch with the singers of the songs, and has embraced every opportun ity to hear the music at tirst hand. The conclusions reached have been deduced from a careful analysis of hundreds of songs of the American negroes, and from different sources. In the opinion of Mr. Ivrehbiel the songs of the Ameri can negroes are yeiuiine American folksongs "racy of the soil." The peculiarities in melody an I rhytlun make of this body of folk song a thing original and distinc tive. No student who loves the quaint savor of real music from the people should miss the delight ful entertainment here given for his benefit; for the songs are all harmonized with piano accompani ments so deftly as to seem one with tho original melodies. There is no lack of humor or human in terest in .Mr. Ivi-chlnel's handling of his subject; it is altogether ad mirable, and he deserves the thanks of the folk-loving and mus ic-loving public in general. The Proceed hi ys of the Music Teachers'' Rational Association, issued annually under the title, "Studies in Musical Education, History and Aesthetics occupy a unique place in the educational lit erature regarding musical art. They give in full the representa tive papers and discussions of the Association, thereby acquainting students with the most valued music thought of the day as well as the foremost American music ians. We are fortunate in having a half-dozen volumes of this valua ble series. In fullness of practical information and suggestion these THE GUILFORDIAN volumes are indispensable to the musical student. We notice with delight Thomas Hardy's "Under the (Ireenirood Tree" among the new books. This is a charming musical story. Don't fail to read it. IIIJIII n No. 70. We have sung this great battle hymn in chapel service several times since the opening of College. Let us sing it with :i knowledge of its historical significance. Written by Martin Luther and translated from the German by Thomas Carlyle, this hymn li;is perhaps the most popu lar history of any hymn known. It became the war song of Germany, being sung by soldiers as they went into battle and into camp. In INTO when the Franco-Prussian war was on, this great German hynian again aroused the German nation, and it became as popular in the streets as our concert-hall songs are here. Great musicians, including Mendelssohn, Meyerbeer and Wagner, have used this melo dy in their works, but Wagner has made the most of il in the Ivaiser marscli, which he composed iu cele bration of the triumphant return to Berlin of the soldiers, after the war with France. It is commonly known to us as "Luther's Ilynin." The German title is "Fin' Feste Iturg." The first line of the trans lation given in our morning Hymn al is "A Mighty Fortress is our *od." J. L.

No more splendid opportunity could be offered to young men to catch the whole-hearted Christian spirit of such men as Dr. Weather ford, W. L. Potent, H. M. Poteat and the many other speakers and leaders. The whole trip would have been more than worth while had we heard nothing but the words of John li. Mott and caught a glimpse of his splendid character and great work. No delegate can ever forget his appeal for men for the foreign field or his forcible pre sentation of the Christian life.
