great stimulus to musical composition among the
younger musicians.
Carrie Jacobs Bond is another composer of Cali-
fornia whose songs are more widely known than any
of the others. Hallet Gilberte, Arthur Farwell, Colin
Campbell, Helcne Gaut, Henry Cowell are famous
composers living here. Of the younger composers,
we have Homer Simmons, Frances Cole and Jeanette
Colwell, Fannie C. Dillon, who will become the head
of the theory department of the Olga Steeb piano
school, is a composer of merit. Sol Cohen, Ernest
Douglas, Clarence Gustlin, Abbie Norton, Jamison,
Helen Livingstone, Frances Marion Ralston, Anna
Priscilla Rischer are all composers and teachers.
Organists who continually interpret the lofty com-
positions which the organ demands become com-
posers in their turn, such as Dr. Roland Diggle, C.
Albert Tufts, Dr. Ray Hastings, Henry Millier, Sib-
ley Pease and P. Shaull Hallett.

business has passed through many viscissitudes since
it was established in 1823, until it came into the
hands of H. Bock in the year 1891.
