MUSIC NOTES.
(â– hrifttmas Carols.
Willi the 'hristmas season so
near at hand our thoughts turn to
the music horn out of the joy of
the season. There is joy even in
the word "carol;" there is joy ii
hearing then:, and there is greater
joy in singing them. A few words
therefore respecting their origin
and usuage is of interest to us.
In modern usage, enrols are ;i
kind of popular hymn, origina
ting, like Folk-song, among the
'Omuioii people of alI lands. They
are verses and melodies which
have been perpetuated among us
hy tradition, without any artistic
adornment whatever, and are used
throughout the world at some
season of the ecclesiastical or nut
ural year. There are, or were.
Welsh Summer Carols and \\ in
ter Carols; there are also Faster
Carols; hut the only species which
remains in general use is the
'hristmas 'arol.
This particular kind of Hymn
was lirst cultivated in France,
aijd commonly sung there in ver\
ancient times. There are, per
haps a greater number of ancient
French Carols extant than of any
other land. The Italian Carol has
almost disappeared. The few that
are left surpass even the beauty
of the French Carol.
In Scotland, the practice of
Carol-singini ceased in the Kith
century and has not been resum
ed. The Carols of (Jermany per
petuate the beauty of the old Lat
in Carols, through the influence
of Martin Luther.
In Fngland, the Carol has al
ways been regarded with great
favor; it has a firm hold upon the
affections of the people. Not to
love a Carol in England is to pro
claim oneself a churl. The great
libraries of the world preserve
many interesting examples of Tra
ditional Carols in manuscript.
The Uritish museum is particu
larly rich in them.
All Carols of whatever land
(the words of course, translated,
but the melodies preserved in
tact) possess certain individual'
itv which render them unforget
able. The fact that they have
lived so long is of itself proof of
their intrinsic worth. They speak
more plainly to the heart than
more elaborate forms of musical
expression.
WEBSTERIAN NOTES.
On Dec. 4 the Websterians met
as usual. This being the regular
time for installation of officers
the following men were installed
President, A. L. Fiiddick; Secre
tary, Lester Coggins, and Mar
shal, Fdgar Murrow.
The program for the evening
was one in which all had a part.
The roll was called and each man
rose and spoke for five minutes.
The talks were mostly reports of
the county from which the speak-
THE GUILFORDIAN
er happened to come. The speak
ers (>ll of any historic events
which lnid happened within their
counties, what progress they were
making in education, good roads,
and other improvements, ;is well
as what they raised and how they
raised it.
The program was a complete
success. Every man was ready
when liis name was called and
eagerly told us of his county. The
reports were of much educational
value in that they taught each
man where his county stood i-i
comparison with others, and also
what different conditions prevail
ed in different sections of the
State.
Mr. McOall, as crilic, praised
the program, and asked that il be
varied more often along some line
which would he of practical value
and i til crest as this had l>een.
A RECITAL.
The recital given by Mrs. ('has.
Doak, reader, and Mr. Hugh A.
Stewart, basso, on (he evening of
December was certainly a suc
cess in spite of the inclement
weather and small attendance.
The following program was ren
dered, with one exception made
by Mr. Stewart:
Part One.

Das Kris Kindle Riley
Mrs. Doak carried her audience
with her from the time she ren
dered "In the Toils of the Ene
my," relating the adventures of a
young Yale enthusiast, to the
more solemn "Das Kris Kindle,"
Wiley's story of the first Christ
mas. She was so alert and fa
miliar with the different charac
ters which she was portraying,
that her hearers could not help
appreciating them. She made
them real not only by her inflec
tions and splendid enunciation,
but also by her gestures, which
were easy, natural, graceful and
suggestive.
Mr. Stewart's singing is too
well known and enjoyed by Guil
fordians to need any commenda
tion from us on this particular oc
casion.
