CONCERT RARE
MUSICAL TREAT
Alex Skovgaard, The Noted vioIinist,
And Misses McCIung And Wright
Are Greeted by Appreciative Au-
dience.

Before taking up the program OF
the SkOvgaard concert Wednesday
evening. the ID. A. r. should be high
IL commended for their taste and
discrimination in providing a concert
which gave such exquisite pleasure
Sjogren, the composer of the frs
number on the program. is a Swede
who is fast coming TO the front
among the modern composers. The
striking contrasts of the three move
ments of the Sonata suggested the
bold promontories and smiling val
leys of Sweden.
In the con fuoco. Miss McClune
and Skovgaard rose to the heights
of power and sublimity, and no where
was the ensemble more perfect thar
in this movement. The theme of the
Bruch concerto is lovely and appeal
ing. and the finale moves one irresis
tibly with its joy and sparkle. Mr..
Skovgaard played next group, the
first two numbers of which wer:
quaint and charming, and lovers OF
Chopin were delightd to hear the
Sara sata arrangement of the famil-
lar nocturne. And here the artisi
drew from the muted violin a quality
of tone so ethereal that it seemed
to come down from Heaven.
The group of original compositions
oaye distinct evidence Of the crea-
tive ability of the composer. and he
PLAYED them with prodigal temper
ament and brillia9ce. Indeed, few
artists possess the skilled techmt
and interpretatives ability of Skov'
gard. The soprano, Miss Wright
has a rich mezzo of much promise
She was particularly pleasing In the
group of pieces, singing: "Oh, Dry
Those Tears" with excellent effect
accompanied by the lovely violin %
ligato sounding from another room
Miss Wright's encores were unusu'
allv pleasing. Among many dlstln
guished accompanies, Miss McClunG
* notable. and her exquisite playing
OF the two solos. the List Tarantell'
and the Sextetta from Lucia for LET
hand were wonderfully we'll done
She is an artist Of rare gifts.
So pleased was Skovgaard Will
the appreciation accorded that h
gave an extra number, the nobl'
/ Handel Sonata. As an encore, tn
..Suwanne River" was enObled a
the writer had never heard it eithe
in song or fundamentally. Th
Mischa Elman arrangement OF tn
Schubert Cradle Song was the othe
encore. 1t is very difficult to pla..
and was lovely beyond compare.
h Thrice happy those who heard tn
concert last night.

"1rust God and SaIlv.H

The worthy people of the historic town of Newark, Nottingham, Eng land, have lately been much exercised in their minds regarding the selection of a motto to go with the borough arms. Ultimately it was decided that the motto of the town should be the historic remark made by Major Smith in 1646, Trust God and Sally"
 It was in that year when Newark was surrendered to the Scottish army after sustaining three sieges during the civil war, and the remark was made to Lord Bellayse when the for. tunes of King Charles I were at the lowest ebb. The word sally" of course, as used in Newark's motto, means to rush forth, leap out, or issue suddenly.

AIbino Puzzle,

The albino is still one of the pug. Gles of science. Beyond the knowl edge that albinism is due to lack of the normal pigment in skin and hair the physiologist and pathologist are about as much at sea regarding the real explanation of this freak of na- ture as they were hundred or a thousand years ago. As to the ulti, mate why of the problem--why the pigment is missing in the albino-- there is nothing but collection of unconvincing guesses. Regarding tIe statistics of albinism nothing satis- factory is obtainable except in two countries. In Italy the albinos num- Der about one in every twenty thou sand of the population. whereas in Norway the rate is twice es high, with one in every ten thousand.
