A note written on a small piece of paper sent by Gertrud Schoenberg to Ives after the death of her husband. Reads “preserve one’s self esteem and to learn.” Initial printing incorrectly read as: “preserve one's self and to learn.” It first appeared in print in Henry and Sid­ney Cowell, Charles Ives and His Music as a footnote with lines 6­7 incorrectly reading: Initial misinterpretation was probably due to cursory reading of Schoenberg's problematic handwriting.

Discusses absolute music and program music.

A brief but worthwhile sur-vey, especially of “The League of Composers” (365): “The Arrow Music Press is a cooperative venture. The composer pays all, or a portion of, the expense of publishing his compositions and in return receives all but a small fraction of the return. A very interesting catalogue has al-ready been issued by the press, which appears to be increasing its acti-vities.” With the Arrow Press imprint and its subsidiary Cos Cob Press, the following works of Ives were published: Sonata [No. 4] for violin and piano; Serenity; Sixty--Seventh Psalm; Charlie Rutlage; Evening; The Greatest Man', Walking; Seven Songs’, Third Symphony (“The Camp Meeting”) [CI 87); Sonata No. 2, “Concord, Mass., 1840--1860,” for piano; and Where the Eagle (in the Cos Cob Song Volume). The Cos Cob Press was later absorbed by the Arrow Music Press that in turn was merged into Associated Music Publishers. Ives and Walter Piston had the most titles in this catalogue. The article re-prints “Prologue” from Essays Before a Sonata.
