of twelve years he began seriously to study

Later

Symphony Orchestra, in which he also
held membership, placing him in touch
with those in sympathy with the plan of
bettering Boston's musical standards.
Mr. Behr came to Kansas City in 1885,
and first gained local prominence by conducting the festival held in the Exposition building, in which the five hundred
voices under his direction were assisted by
Gilmore's Band.
He has labored consistently since living here to develop the local musical standards, and has accomplished much with the Kansas Citv Symphony Orchestra, of which he is director.

was born
in Independence, Missouri, in
1 85 1.
His father, William Chrisman,
was one of this county's pioneers, and was
firmly established as a commercial factor
in the community at the time of the young
Chrisman 's birth. The boy was sent to
the public schools of Independence, and
after passing through the allotted courses
of these schools went to William Jewell
College at Liberty, Mo., to the Kemper
Military Academy at Booneville, Mo.,
and later to Forest Hill Academy in Jefferson County, Kentucky.
After graduating from the latter institution, Mr.
Chrisman returned to Independence,
where he entered his father's office to
begin the study of law.
Failing health
caused him to give up the study, however,
and he went into the Chrisman-Sawyer
Bank, which his father had organized,
in a clerical position.
This, too, was too
