ALEXANDER J. DALLAS DIXON “Mrs. Alexander J. Dallas Dixon, the first President of this committee, who died on September 20, 1925, was for several reasons especially dear to our members. “Captains of ships who take the helm for voyages over uncharted seas, or leaders of expeditions across unknown continents who bring such undertakings to successful ends, receive the honor of their comrades. How much more should we treasure the memory of a pioneer leader, whose enterprise was so skillfully planned that the work for a noble purpose has been able to continue during twenty-one years. “Long before Mrs. Dixon entered upon the difficult position of President of this committee, however, she was a force in the musical life of the city. As an amateur pianist and singer, and as a member of the Eurydice Chorus and of the Melody Club, she was a well-known and important figure among the devotees of this enchanting art.
