By a simple process of taxa- tion such 'sacrifices are automatically systematized for the entire com- j munity. But the question arises: What is a luxury, what a necessity?' | It has been proposed that musical | instruments should be classed as lux-) uries. In other words, music is to be I classed with li(iuor and tobacco as one j of those utterly useless frivolities that! every serious and patriotic citizen should be glad to give up. What an anomaly! Music, always a necessity, becomes in time of war ' absolutely indispensable to a nation, i When the nervous system of every i individual is working under constant strain, the calming, sustaining in- 1 fluence of music should be given every , opportunity to make its presence felt. ! When patriotic emotions demand ex- j pression and encouragement, it is music that will supply it. When i thousands of people have to be brought . together to one common purpose, i music is the only universal language,! the only oratory that reaches every : heart.
