+
+
+Enclosed in this envelope is the cord and the needle with which to bind

+the needle and thread through the center of the book, leaving an end
+extend outside, then through to the outside, about 2 inches from the
+center; then from the outside to inside 2 inches from the center at the
+other end of the book, bringing the thread finally again through the
+center, and tie the two ends in a knot, one each side of the cord on the
+outside.

+
+                         HOW TO USE THIS BOOK
+
+
+This book is one of a series known as the CHILD'S OWN BOOK OF GREAT
+MUSICIANS, written by Thomas Tapper, author of "Pictures from the Lives
+of the Great Composers for Children," "Music Talks with Children,"
+"First Studies in Music Biography," and others.
+
+The sheet of illustrations included herewith is to be cut apart by the
+child, and each illustration is to be inserted in its proper place
+throughout the book, pasted in the space containing the same number as
+will be found under each picture on the sheet. It is not necessary to
+cover the entire back of a picture with paste. Put it only on the
+corners and place neatly within the lines you will find printed around
+each space. Use photographic paste, if possible.
+
+After this play-work is completed there will be found at the back of the
+book blank pages upon which the child is to write his own story of the
+great musician, based upon the facts and questions found on the previous
+pages.
+
+The book is then to be sewed by the child through the center with the
+cord found in the enclosed envelope. The book thus becomes the child's
+own book.
+
+This series will be found not only to furnish a pleasing and interesting
+task for the children, but will teach them the main facts with regard to
+the life of each of the great musicians--an educational feature worth
+while.

+              The Story of the Boy Who Wrote Little Plays
+
+
+A very odd house used to stand in the quaint old Saxon City of Leipzig.
+This house was called the Red and White Lion. I suppose no one ever
+really saw a lion that was red and white, but nevertheless that was the
+name of the house. There, was born Richard Wagner, who was one day to
+write the wonderful opera scenes of which we will soon read.
+
+                          [Illustration: No. 2
+                          WAGNER'S BIRTHPLACE]
+
+Richard Wagner's day of birth was May 22, 1813. That was more than a
+century ago! More than twelve hundred months!
+
+Since that time, music has changed very greatly. When Wagner was born,
+much of the music that was being written had to follow certain patterns
+or models just as architects follow certain patterns in building a
+house. Now the composer when he writes music feels a great deal freer as
+he knows that he can make his own patterns,--that he is not held in by
+any such hard laws as those which held back such composers as Mozart,
+Bach, Haydn and Handel. It was Wagner who did much to set music free
+from the old barriers. This does not mean that music to-day is better
+than music that was written by Haydn and Beethoven. Indeed it often is
+not nearly so good, but it is freer, less held down by rule.
+
+                          [Illustration: No. 3
+                              TANNHÄUSER]
+
+When Wagner wrote his first opera that had any success (Rienzi) he
+followed the models of composers of the day, but when he came to write
+operas that followed, such as Flying Dutchman, Lohengrin and Tannhäuser,
+he struck out in new and fresh paths which made him many enemies at
+first and many friends later.
+
+As we read of a great man we must learn to see the world as it was in
+his day.
+
+Today we think of the world as the home of our parents, of ourselves and
+of our friends; as the world of Mr. Edison, Mr. Wilson and Mr.
+Roosevelt. In the world of Wagner there was not one of these.
+
+Who were the great musicians when he was a boy? Well, here are some of
+them. Can you tell one fact about each of the men whose pictures come
+next?

+
+Wagner's father died when he was only six months old, and the boy was
+brought up by his mother and his step-father, who was very kind to him.
+In one way Wagner was unlike most of the other great composers. He did
+not show any talent for music until he was almost a man. All that he
+thought of was writing plays. When he did study, he was so bright and
+worked so hard that he learned in less than a year more than many learn
+in a lifetime. Here is a picture of Wagner's mother, who cared for him
+so tenderly.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 8]
+                            WAGNER'S MOTHER
+
+When we read the stories of Charles Dickens we make many friends. And
+they are among the very best we ever have. There are Little Nell, Paul
+Dombey, Sam Weller, Oliver Twist, and a host of others.
+
+Writers like Dickens bring all sorts of people before us. _But few
+composers can do such a thing._
+
+Yet there are some who do this, and one of the greatest is Richard
+Wagner. In his operas a host of people live,--people as real and as
+interesting as those in the stories of Charles Dickens.
+
+There is Walter, who sings the Prize Song in Die Meistersinger, and Eva,
+whom he loves. And in the same opera there is Beckmesser, the fussy old
+schoolmaster kind of a man. And Hans Sachs, the cobbler.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 9]
+                      SCENE FROM DIE MEISTERSINGER
+
+There is a lovely scene in the third act of this opera. We see a meadow
+light and bright in the sunshine. A glistening river flows quietly
+through it. Everywhere on the water there are boats. Scattered over the
+meadow there are tents. Everybody is out for a holiday time. All is
+lively and full of color and bright and cheery. Now there pass before us
+the tradesmen singing in chorus. There are cobblers and carpenters led
+by the town pipers. And every trade sings its own songs.
+
+Then comes the scene in which Walter and Beckmesser sing in contest.
+Beckmesser begins. He stutters and stammers and struggles through his
+song. And finally, like a school-boy who does not know his lesson, he
+breaks down.
+
+Then Walter comes to sing the lovely _Prize Song_; a melody that just
+sings itself into the heart of everyone.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 10]
+                          WALTER'S PRIZE SONG
+
+Do you wonder that with such lovely music Walter wins the contest and
+the hand of Eva whom he loves? Jolly old Hans Sachs is so happy over it
+all that he sings a rollicking song and everybody joins in with him as
+the curtain goes down.
+
+                        [Illustration: No. 11]
+                               HANS SACHS
+
+Nor was Wagner satisfied with making characters who were merely people
+just like ourselves. (For Walter and Eva are people of our kind). But
+there are in the operas by Richard Wagner, gods and goddesses, giants
+and Rhine maidens, and Nibelungs.
+
+Many of them have strange names. These names are easy to remember
+because they are strange: Wotan and Donner are gods. Freia and Erda are
+goddesses. Fafner is a giant. Flosshilde is a Rhine daughter. Mime and
+Alberich are Nibelungs.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 12]
+                               LOHENGRIN
+
+Oh, they are wonderful company these gods and goddesses, and others of
+the company who tell their story and adventure in the operas of the
+Nibelungen Ring. Here is Siegfried forging his Magic Sword Nothung.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 13]
+                               SIEGFRIED
+
+Now, as we have said, when we learn of so great a man we always wonder
+what sort of a boy he was. Well, when this boy was nine years old he
+went to a classical school. One of his teachers at least must have been
+very fond of him, and he must have been fond of his teacher, for when
+Richard Wagner was only thirteen years old he translated from Greek into
+German twelve books of the Odyssey for this teacher.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 14]
+                            WAGNER AS A BOY
+
+"I intend to become a poet," he used to say. He read _Romeo and Juliet_
+in English. Then he wrote a play in which were _Hamlet_ and _King Lear_.
+And there were forty-two other characters. All of these died or were
+killed in the fourth act and were brought back as ghosts in the fifth!
+He played the piano, too, and seems to have been quite as busy a boy as
+he was a man.
+
+Of one composer's music he was very fond. This composer lived nearby and
+passed the Wagner house almost every day. Richard always ran to the
+window to watch him coming. This musician was the composer of _Der
+Freischütz_ and of _Oberon_. Can you guess his name?
+
+This composer's father was also a musician as well as a military man.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 15]
+                                 WEBER
+
+Children will be glad to know that Wagner was very fond of animals. Here
+he is with a picture of one of his dogs. His favorite dogs are buried in
+the garden of his home at Bayreuth, where Wagner is also buried.
+
+Wagner called his home at Bayreuth "Wahnfried," which really means
+"Fancy Free."
+
+It is beautifully located in the heart of the old town.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 16]
+                           WAGNER AND HIS DOG
+
+Later on the boy read about the contest of _Die Meistersinger_. He was
+then sixteen. And he read, too, a poem called _Tannhäuser_. He kept
+these stories in mind until he became a man and then he wrote an opera
+about each.
+
+Thus we see that we carry childhood thoughts into manhood.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 17]
+
+Here is a list of the operas by Richard Wagner, with their names
+pronounced:--
+
+    _The Fairies_ (1833).
+    _Das Liebesverbot_ (1836) leebes-fehr-bote.
+    _Rienzi_ (1842) ree-ent'-see.
+    _The Flying Dutchman_ (1842).
+    _Tannhäuser_ (1845) tan'-hoy-ser.
+    _Lohengrin_ (1847) lo'-en-green.
+    _Das Rheingold_ (1869) rhine-gold.
+    _Die Walküre_ (1870) dee val-kee-reh.
+    _Siegfried_ (1869) seeg'-freed.
+    _Tristan and Isolde_ (1865) e-sol'-deh.
+    _Die Meistersinger_ (1867).
+    _Die Götterdämmerung_ (1876) dee getter-day-meh-roongk.
+    _Parsifal_ (1882) par'-se-fal.
+
+Wagner also wrote symphonies and a few works for chorus and orchestra,
+but he is so much greater as a composer of music dramas that he is known
+mostly for his works for the stage.

+
+1.C.  The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"

+Gutenberg-tm electronic works.  Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States.  If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed.  Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work.  You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D.  The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work.  Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change.  If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work.  The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E.  Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1.  The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the

+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever.  You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges.  If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3.  If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder.  Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4.  Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5.  Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6.  You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form.  However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form.  Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.

+     the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+     you already use to calculate your applicable taxes.  The fee is
+     owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+     has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+     Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation.  Royalty payments
+     must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+     prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax

+     sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+     address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+     the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+     you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+     does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+     License.  You must require such a user to return or
+     destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+     and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+     Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+     money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+     electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+     of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+     distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9.  If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark.  Contact the
+Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2.  LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees.  YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3.  YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3.  LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from.  If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation.  The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund.  If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund.  If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4.  Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5.  Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law.  The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6.  INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3.  Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service.  The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541.  Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising.  Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations.  Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org.  Email contact links and up to date contact
+information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official
+page at http://pglaf.org
+
+For additional contact information:
+     Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+     Chief Executive and Director
+     gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+<p>Enclosed in this envelope is the cord and the
+needle with which to bind this book. Start in from
+the outside as shown on the diagram here. Pass the
+needle and thread through the center of the book,
+leaving an end extend outside, then through to the
+outside, about 2 inches from the center; then from
+the outside to inside 2 inches from the center at the
+other end of the book, bringing the thread finally
+again through the center, and tie the two ends in a
+knot, one each side of the cord on the outside.</p>

+
+<p class="h2">HOW TO USE THIS BOOK</p>
+
+<p class="noindent">This book is one of a series known as the CHILD'S OWN
+BOOK OF GREAT MUSICIANS, written by Thomas
+Tapper, author of "Pictures from the Lives of the Great Composers
+for Children," "Music Talks with Children," "First
+Studies in Music Biography," and others.</p>
+
+<p>The sheet of illustrations included herewith is to be cut
+apart by the child, and each illustration is to be inserted in its
+proper place throughout the book, pasted in the space containing
+the same number as will be found under each picture on the
+sheet. It is not necessary to cover the entire back of a picture
+with paste. Put it only on the corners and place neatly within
+the lines you will find printed around each space. Use photographic
+paste, if possible.</p>
+
+<p>After this play-work is completed there will be found at
+the back of the book blank pages upon which the child is to
+write his own story of the great musician, based upon the facts
+and questions found on the previous pages.</p>
+
+<p>The book is then to be sewed by the child through the
+center with the cord found in the enclosed envelope. The book
+thus becomes the child's own book.</p>
+
+<p>This series will be found not only to furnish a pleasing and
+interesting task for the children, but will teach them the main
+facts with regard to the life of each of the great musicians&mdash;an
+educational feature worth while.</p>
+

+Plays</p>
+
+<p>A very odd house used to stand in the quaint old
+Saxon City of Leipzig. This house was called the Red
+and White Lion. I suppose no one ever really saw a
+lion that was red and white, but nevertheless that was
+the name of the house. There, was born Richard
+Wagner, who was one day to write the wonderful
+opera scenes of which we will soon read.</p>

+<span class="caption">WAGNER&#39;S BIRTHPLACE</span>
+</div>
+
+<p>Richard Wagner's day of birth was May 22, 1813.
+That was more than a century ago! More than twelve
+hundred months!</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum">[Pg&nbsp;4]</span>
+Since that time, music has changed very greatly.
+When Wagner was born, much of the music that was
+being written had to follow certain patterns or models
+just as architects follow certain patterns in building a
+house. Now the composer when he writes music feels
+a great deal freer as he knows that he can make his
+own patterns,&mdash;that he is not held in by any such hard
+laws as those which held back such composers as
+Mozart, Bach, Haydn and Handel. It was Wagner
+who did much to set music free from the old barriers.
+This does not mean that
+music to-day is better than
+music that was written by
+Haydn and Beethoven. Indeed
+it often is not nearly so
+good, but it is freer, less held
+down by rule.</p>

+<span class="caption">TANNHÄUSER</span>
+</div>
+
+<p>When Wagner wrote his
+first opera that had any success
+(Rienzi) he followed the
+models of composers of the
+day, but when he came to
+write operas that followed,
+such as Flying Dutchman,
+Lohengrin and Tannhäuser,
+he struck out in new and fresh paths which made him
+many enemies at first and many friends later.</p>
+
+<p>As we read of a great man we must learn to see the
+world as it was in his day.</p>
+
+<p>Today we think of the world as the home of our
+parents, of ourselves and of our friends; as the world
+of Mr. Edison, Mr. Wilson and Mr. Roosevelt. In the
+world of Wagner there was not one of these.</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum">[Pg&nbsp;5]</span>
+Who were the great musicians when he was a boy?
+Well, here are some of them. Can you tell one fact
+about each of the men whose pictures come next?</p>

+
+<p>Wagner's father died when he was only six
+months old, and the boy was brought up by his
+mother and his step-father, who was very kind to him.
+In one way Wagner was unlike most of the other great
+composers. He did not show any talent for music
+until he was almost a man. All that he thought of
+was writing plays. When he did study, he was so
+bright and worked so hard that he learned in less than
+a year more than many learn in a lifetime. Here is
+a picture of Wagner's mother, who cared for him so
+tenderly.</p>

+When we read the stories of Charles Dickens we
+make many friends. And they are among the very
+best we ever have. There are Little Nell, Paul Dombey,
+Sam Weller, Oliver Twist, and a host of others.</p>
+
+<p>Writers like Dickens bring all sorts of people before
+us. <i>But few composers can do such a thing.</i></p>
+
+<p>Yet there are some who do this, and one of the
+greatest is Richard Wagner. In his operas a host of
+people live,&mdash;people as real and as interesting as those
+in the stories of Charles Dickens.</p>
+
+<p>There is Walter, who sings the Prize Song in Die
+Meistersinger, and Eva, whom he loves. And in the
+same opera there is Beckmesser, the fussy old schoolmaster
+kind of a man. And Hans Sachs, the cobbler.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter">
+<img src="images/illus09.png" alt="No. 9" title="No. 9" /><br />
+<span class="caption">SCENE FROM DIE MEISTERSINGER</span>
+</div>
+
+<p>There is a lovely scene in the third act of this opera.
+We see a meadow light and bright in the sunshine.
+A glistening river flows quietly through it. Everywhere
+on the water there are boats. Scattered over
+the meadow there are tents. Everybody is out for a
+holiday time. All is lively and full of color and bright
+and cheery. Now there pass before us the tradesmen
+singing in chorus. There are cobblers and carpenters
+<span class="pagenum">[Pg&nbsp;7]</span>
+led by the town pipers. And every trade sings
+its own songs.</p>
+
+<p>Then comes the scene in which Walter and Beckmesser
+sing in contest. Beckmesser begins. He stutters
+and stammers and struggles through his song.
+And finally, like a school-boy who does not know his
+lesson, he breaks down.</p>
+
+<p>Then Walter comes to sing the lovely <i>Prize Song</i>;
+a melody that just sings itself into the heart of everyone.</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter">

+<span class="caption">WALTER&#39;S PRIZE SONG <a href="music/wagner.mid">Listen</a></span>
+</div>
+
+<p>Do you wonder that with such lovely music Walter
+wins the contest and the hand of Eva whom he loves?
+Jolly old Hans Sachs is so happy over it all that he
+sings a rollicking song and everybody joins in with
+him as the curtain goes down.</p>

+<p><span class="pagenum">[Pg&nbsp;8]</span>
+Nor was Wagner satisfied with making characters
+who were merely people just like ourselves. (For Walter
+and Eva are people of our kind). But there are in
+the operas by Richard Wagner, gods and goddesses,
+giants and Rhine maidens, and Nibelungs.</p>
+
+<p>Many of them have strange names. These names
+are easy to remember because they are strange:
+Wotan and Donner are gods. Freia and Erda are
+goddesses. Fafner is a giant. Flosshilde is a Rhine
+daughter. Mime and Alberich are Nibelungs.</p>

+
+<p>Now, as we have said, when
+we learn of so great a man we
+always wonder what sort of a
+boy he was. Well, when this boy
+was nine years old he went to a
+classical school. One of his teachers
+at least must have been very
+fond of him, and he must have
+been fond of his teacher, for
+when Richard Wagner was only
+thirteen years old he translated from Greek into German
+twelve books of the Odyssey for this teacher.</p>

+"I intend to become a poet," he used to say. He
+read <i>Romeo and Juliet</i> in English. Then he wrote
+a play in which were <i>Hamlet</i> and <i>King Lear</i>. And
+there were forty-two other characters. All of these
+died or were killed in the fourth act and were brought
+back as ghosts in the fifth! He played the piano, too,
+and seems to have been quite as busy a boy as he was
+a man.</p>
+
+<p>Of one composer's music he
+was very fond. This composer
+lived nearby and passed the
+Wagner house almost every day.
+Richard always ran to the window
+to watch him coming. This
+musician was the composer of
+<i>Der Freischütz</i> and of <i>Oberon</i>. Can
+you guess his name?</p>
+
+<p>This composer's father was
+also a musician as well as a military
+man.</p>

+
+<p>Children will be glad to know
+that Wagner was very fond of
+animals. Here he is with a picture
+of one of his dogs. His
+favorite dogs are buried in the
+garden of his home at Bayreuth,
+where Wagner is also buried.</p>
+
+<p>Wagner called his home at
+Bayreuth "Wahnfried," which
+really means "Fancy Free."</p>
+
+<p>It is beautifully located in the
+heart of the old town.</p>

+Later on the boy read about the contest of <i>Die
+Meistersinger</i>. He was then sixteen. And he read,
+too, a poem called <i>Tannhäuser</i>. He kept these stories
+in mind until he became a man and then he wrote an
+opera about each.</p>
+
+<p>Thus we see that we carry childhood thoughts into

+</p>
+
+<p>Wagner also wrote symphonies and a few works
+for chorus and orchestra, but he is so much greater
+as a composer of music dramas that he is known
+mostly for his works for the stage.

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1.  Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection.  Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.

+
+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

+
+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+
+Enclosed in this envelope is the cord and the needle with which to bind
+this book. Start in from the outside as shown on the diagram here. Pass
+the needle and thread through the center of the book, leaving an end
+extend outside, then through to the outside, about 2 inches from the
+center; then from the outside to inside 2 inches from the center at the
+other end of the book, bringing the thread finally again through the
+center, and tie the two ends in a knot, one each side of the cord on the
+outside.

+
+
+
+
+                         HOW TO USE THIS BOOK
+
+
+This book is one of a series known as the CHILD'S OWN BOOK OF GREAT
+MUSICIANS, written by Thomas Tapper, author of "Pictures from the Lives
+of the Great Composers for Children," "Music Talks with Children,"
+"First Studies in Music Biography," and others.
+
+The sheet of illustrations included herewith is to be cut apart by the
+child, and each illustration is to be inserted in its proper place
+throughout the book, pasted in the space containing the same number as
+will be found under each picture on the sheet. It is not necessary to
+cover the entire back of a picture with paste. Put it only on the
+corners and place neatly within the lines you will find printed around
+each space. Use photographic paste, if possible.
+
+After this play-work is completed there will be found at the back of the
+book blank pages upon which the child is to write his own story of the
+great musician, based upon the facts and questions found on the previous
+pages.
+
+The book is then to be sewed by the child through the center with the
+cord found in the enclosed envelope. The book thus becomes the child's
+own book.
+
+This series will be found not only to furnish a pleasing and interesting
+task for the children, but will teach them the main facts with regard to
+the life of each of the great musicians--an educational feature worth
+while.

+              The Story of the Boy Who Wrote Little Plays
+
+
+A very odd house used to stand in the quaint old Saxon City of Leipzig.
+This house was called the Red and White Lion. I suppose no one ever
+really saw a lion that was red and white, but nevertheless that was the
+name of the house. There, was born Richard Wagner, who was one day to
+write the wonderful opera scenes of which we will soon read.
+

+                          WAGNER'S BIRTHPLACE]
+
+Richard Wagner's day of birth was May 22, 1813. That was more than a
+century ago! More than twelve hundred months!
+
+Since that time, music has changed very greatly. When Wagner was born,
+much of the music that was being written had to follow certain patterns
+or models just as architects follow certain patterns in building a
+house. Now the composer when he writes music feels a great deal freer as
+he knows that he can make his own patterns,--that he is not held in by
+any such hard laws as those which held back such composers as Mozart,
+Bach, Haydn and Handel. It was Wagner who did much to set music free
+from the old barriers. This does not mean that music to-day is better
+than music that was written by Haydn and Beethoven. Indeed it often is
+not nearly so good, but it is freer, less held down by rule.
+
+                          [Illustration: No. 3
+                              TANNHAEUSER]
+
+When Wagner wrote his first opera that had any success (Rienzi) he
+followed the models of composers of the day, but when he came to write
+operas that followed, such as Flying Dutchman, Lohengrin and Tannhaeuser,
+he struck out in new and fresh paths which made him many enemies at
+first and many friends later.
+
+As we read of a great man we must learn to see the world as it was in
+his day.
+
+Today we think of the world as the home of our parents, of ourselves and
+of our friends; as the world of Mr. Edison, Mr. Wilson and Mr.
+Roosevelt. In the world of Wagner there was not one of these.
+
+Who were the great musicians when he was a boy? Well, here are some of
+them. Can you tell one fact about each of the men whose pictures come
+next?

+
+Wagner's father died when he was only six months old, and the boy was
+brought up by his mother and his step-father, who was very kind to him.
+In one way Wagner was unlike most of the other great composers. He did
+not show any talent for music until he was almost a man. All that he
+thought of was writing plays. When he did study, he was so bright and
+worked so hard that he learned in less than a year more than many learn
+in a lifetime. Here is a picture of Wagner's mother, who cared for him
+so tenderly.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 8]
+                            WAGNER'S MOTHER
+
+When we read the stories of Charles Dickens we make many friends. And
+they are among the very best we ever have. There are Little Nell, Paul
+Dombey, Sam Weller, Oliver Twist, and a host of others.
+
+Writers like Dickens bring all sorts of people before us. _But few
+composers can do such a thing._
+
+Yet there are some who do this, and one of the greatest is Richard
+Wagner. In his operas a host of people live,--people as real and as
+interesting as those in the stories of Charles Dickens.
+
+There is Walter, who sings the Prize Song in Die Meistersinger, and Eva,
+whom he loves. And in the same opera there is Beckmesser, the fussy old
+schoolmaster kind of a man. And Hans Sachs, the cobbler.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 9]
+                      SCENE FROM DIE MEISTERSINGER
+
+There is a lovely scene in the third act of this opera. We see a meadow
+light and bright in the sunshine. A glistening river flows quietly
+through it. Everywhere on the water there are boats. Scattered over the
+meadow there are tents. Everybody is out for a holiday time. All is
+lively and full of color and bright and cheery. Now there pass before us
+the tradesmen singing in chorus. There are cobblers and carpenters led
+by the town pipers. And every trade sings its own songs.
+
+Then comes the scene in which Walter and Beckmesser sing in contest.
+Beckmesser begins. He stutters and stammers and struggles through his
+song. And finally, like a school-boy who does not know his lesson, he
+breaks down.
+
+Then Walter comes to sing the lovely _Prize Song_; a melody that just
+sings itself into the heart of everyone.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 10]
+                          WALTER'S PRIZE SONG
+
+Do you wonder that with such lovely music Walter wins the contest and
+the hand of Eva whom he loves? Jolly old Hans Sachs is so happy over it
+all that he sings a rollicking song and everybody joins in with him as
+the curtain goes down.
+
+                        [Illustration: No. 11]
+                               HANS SACHS
+
+Nor was Wagner satisfied with making characters who were merely people
+just like ourselves. (For Walter and Eva are people of our kind). But
+there are in the operas by Richard Wagner, gods and goddesses, giants
+and Rhine maidens, and Nibelungs.
+
+Many of them have strange names. These names are easy to remember
+because they are strange: Wotan and Donner are gods. Freia and Erda are
+goddesses. Fafner is a giant. Flosshilde is a Rhine daughter. Mime and
+Alberich are Nibelungs.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 12]
+                               LOHENGRIN
+
+Oh, they are wonderful company these gods and goddesses, and others of
+the company who tell their story and adventure in the operas of the
+Nibelungen Ring. Here is Siegfried forging his Magic Sword Nothung.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 13]
+                               SIEGFRIED
+
+Now, as we have said, when we learn of so great a man we always wonder
+what sort of a boy he was. Well, when this boy was nine years old he
+went to a classical school. One of his teachers at least must have been
+very fond of him, and he must have been fond of his teacher, for when
+Richard Wagner was only thirteen years old he translated from Greek into
+German twelve books of the Odyssey for this teacher.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 14]
+                            WAGNER AS A BOY
+
+"I intend to become a poet," he used to say. He read _Romeo and Juliet_
+in English. Then he wrote a play in which were _Hamlet_ and _King Lear_.
+And there were forty-two other characters. All of these died or were
+killed in the fourth act and were brought back as ghosts in the fifth!
+He played the piano, too, and seems to have been quite as busy a boy as
+he was a man.
+
+Of one composer's music he was very fond. This composer lived nearby and
+passed the Wagner house almost every day. Richard always ran to the
+window to watch him coming. This musician was the composer of _Der
+Freischuetz_ and of _Oberon_. Can you guess his name?
+
+This composer's father was also a musician as well as a military man.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 15]
+                                 WEBER
+
+Children will be glad to know that Wagner was very fond of animals. Here
+he is with a picture of one of his dogs. His favorite dogs are buried in
+the garden of his home at Bayreuth, where Wagner is also buried.
+
+Wagner called his home at Bayreuth "Wahnfried," which really means
+"Fancy Free."
+
+It is beautifully located in the heart of the old town.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 16]
+                           WAGNER AND HIS DOG
+
+Later on the boy read about the contest of _Die Meistersinger_. He was
+then sixteen. And he read, too, a poem called _Tannhaeuser_. He kept
+these stories in mind until he became a man and then he wrote an opera
+about each.
+
+Thus we see that we carry childhood thoughts into manhood.
+
+                         [Illustration: No. 17]
+
+Here is a list of the operas by Richard Wagner, with their names
+pronounced:--
+
+    _The Fairies_ (1833).
+    _Das Liebesverbot_ (1836) leebes-fehr-bote.
+    _Rienzi_ (1842) ree-ent'-see.
+    _The Flying Dutchman_ (1842).
+    _Tannhaeuser_ (1845) tan'-hoy-ser.
+    _Lohengrin_ (1847) lo'-en-green.
+    _Das Rheingold_ (1869) rhine-gold.
+    _Die Walkuere_ (1870) dee val-kee-reh.
+    _Siegfried_ (1869) seeg'-freed.
+    _Tristan and Isolde_ (1865) e-sol'-deh.
+    _Die Meistersinger_ (1867).
+    _Die Goetterdaemmerung_ (1876) dee getter-day-meh-roongk.
+    _Parsifal_ (1882) par'-se-fal.
+
+Wagner also wrote symphonies and a few works for chorus and orchestra,
+but he is so much greater as a composer of music dramas that he is known
+mostly for his works for the stage.

+Section  2.  Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.  It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come.  In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.

+
+Section 4.  Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment.  Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States.  Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements.  We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.  To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States.  U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses.  Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate

+
+Section 5.  General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone.  For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+     http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
