The late Otto Schell was not only b
great music enthusiast but desired to
assist able musicians, aiding them in
various ways. Thus it happened that
last Christmas he showed his appre-

talents of Jos. Hofmeister by giving
him the privilege of selecting violin
even if it had to be imported from
Germany. Mr.. aofmeister selected
fifty dollar violin of German make
imported by the well-known music
house Geo. Fischer, New York. The
violin arrived several days after Mr..
Schell's death. This will be gift
that Mr.. Hofmelster will hold in
honored and sacred memory to the
donor.
