president Roosevelt Is quite as capa-
BILE of apreciating and criticizing

Such was the interesting comment made
upon the chief executive by young Marx
Hamburg, Immediately after the White
House musicale given by President and
Mrs. Roosevelt, In the famous East room.
in January at which Hamburg was the
principal performer.
Tiambourgs playing was not the only
revelation made that night. The revela-
ton was made to the young musician that
the president OF the United StAtes was
something else, beside a soldier, a rough
rider and q hunter. The knowledge Of
these accomplishments of the president is
widespread In Europe, where, in the pop
t1lar mind the chief executive is asso-
ciated with bear shooting, horseback rid
ing and the general life Of a vaquero. 10
see and realize that the president was an
educated, cultured gentleman, capable Of
understanding and approaching the best
things in music was a. revelation indeed
to the young musician and he did not hes
itate to express his wonder and apprecia-
ton of the fact.
AS was to have been expected, perhaps,
Hamburg found that the mistress Of the
White House, and Miss Alice Roosevelt
were also very appreciative of his efforts.
1t was somewhat amusing too, that the
invitation to play while Of course it was
to be- considered in the light Of a com
nand," ELECTED from Hamburg the re-
mark that he had played before all the

The scene on the occasion Of this must
Gale of which Hamburg was the hero was
dazzling in it's beauty. The cream Of the
diplomatic corps, the congressional and
departmental circles were present In
terest in the famous young artist and his
classical program was intense. The de-
monstrations OF approval on all sides were
so evidently genuine that the pianist was
greatly pleased. He found playing before
the president and his guests at the White
House quite different from playing before
European monarchs where the smallness
of the audience failed to elicit that re.

cess Of a musician. .. =:
All of these facts derive an additional
interest because of the appearance o.
young Hamburg at Plymouth church Oh
Saturday evening. 1t Is also notewortn,
that the program to be then rendered will
contain some of the numbers which wer,
played at the White House musicale. -.
