Treasurer, at Phone 6 | Over the radio recently a violinist who owns a $30,000 Guarnerius violin | played a melody on it, then he repeatâ€" | ed the melody with an ordinary violin {or "fiddle" costing about $100. Then | he asked radio listeners to write in |and say which was the $30,000 instruâ€" !ment and which was the $100 one. |\ Eleven per cent. did not notice any | differenmce, 54% guessed the $100 | violin was the $30,000 one, and 35% lga.ve the right answer. A few years fago a firm of viokin makers in Lon don named Hill inviteq a committee ‘ot experts to judge between a Strandâ€" ;ivarlus violin and one of their own make from stock. A skilful musician _played on the two instruments behind a screen. The unanimous decision of the comm/ttee was that the Hill violin was a Straudivarius one ang goes to show that this old master fetish is largely an affectation. The instruâ€" ment does not matter so much as the "soul" that the player puts into the performance. A soulful musician can make a homely violin or piano sound like a benediction from Heaven, whereas an ordinary player on a Strandivariug or a Steinway couldn‘t stir any emotion in a listener. The same goes for art. Plctures may hang in a private collection for years and not attract attention from the conâ€" noisseur, then suddenly somebody discovers upon it the name of a famâ€" ous artist who has been dead a hunâ€" dred years or more, and immediately it becomes of fabulous value. Nothing has been done toalter its appearance. It remains the same fine picture or the same bad one as before. Which suggests, to paraphrase Henry Ford. on history, that "old masters" are "hunk." 1 The Women‘s Association _ will meet next Wednesday at the home of Mrs Stanley Mountain. Mrand Mrs Geo.
