Los Angeles Actors Want Suburban Club I 'lans fi t an actors' club house, to be a headquarters for members of the profession were furthered at a meeting 'if those interested, in Dick Ferris' office in Los Angeles, on November l /til. A committee to find a location was appointed, consisting of Mr. Ferris, Lewis S. Stone, Mrs. J. P. Stocksdale, William Verance and Charles Giblyn. This body will proceed to investigate available buildings in the suburbs of Los Angeles, and will be appreciative of suggestion from players in Los Angeles or vicinity. A location near a car line is preferred. The dub will probably purchase some building already erected, although the question of erecting a nqw club house on the site may be discussed later. The organization was formed a week ago, and its officers are: Lewis S. Stone, president; Henry Stockbridge, secretary; Dick Ferris, treasurer. It is confidently hoped that the new organization will strengthen the cordial feelings already existing among theatrical people of Los Angeles, and the project has the good wishes of all persons in anyway connected with the profession in that city. Musicology Musicology means the science of music* All other music books endeavor to teach music as an art, or to discuss it from some special standpoint, as of history, development, use of special instruments, etc. No textbook that treats of music as an art covers the entire scope of music as a science in the way that it is covered in this book of Mr. Logan's, which is aptly titled M ttsicology.

It deals with the science rather than the art, while most music text1mm iks deal with the art rather than the science. For school use it is intended to be included in the science course, rather than in the music course.
