MRS. ALDRICH TO PLAY
 WITH BOSTON SYMPHONY

In the brilliant list of soloists to appear with the Boston Symphony orchestra the coming season is the name of Mrs. Tru- man Aldrlch, Jr. The significance of this appearance is readily understood by all musicians and those who keep up with the musical world.
 The Boston Symphony orchestra is con- ceded to be the greatest symphony or ganization in America, if not in the world. It is far above the London Philharmonic and while there are several great or chestras in Germany, in the opinion or some critics the Boston Symphony m cludes a larger number of picked artists than even the foremost orchestra in the old world and when it comes to ensemble the Boston symphony is certainly unsur- passed Hence it is that any solo art ist who has an appearance with our pre- mier symphony band, especially under the baton of Dr. Muck of Berlin who has come over again to assume the conductor ship, must be a virtuoso of solid rank.
 There are many fine piansts and many fine violinists, but comparatively few or them are engaged to play concertos With the Boston Symphony. Mrs Aldrich Is engaged to play the Grelg concerto with the Minneapolis orchestra in Minneapolis on November 24. Her repertoire includes several concertos, but she will probably play the Greig with the Boston Sym- pbOOV.

Betty is back from the seashore, and burned until she is a sure enough Nut Brown Maid.
 Of course she doesn't like her coat of sun varnish,
 She hates every freclxle on her pretty little nose, even if every blessed one does stand for a delicious time she has had this summer.
 Betty's one aim and object in life now is to remove some of those "sun kisses.
 She wants back her white skin and her pink little chin.
 You may be sure she's been advised about all sorts of bleaches!
 The first day she got home, even those who loved her best didn't finger near her long.
 She was redolent of buttermilk, and the
