interest the activities Of the Boy Scouts.
In q recent issue of the Umpire, the

sively by the prisoners, an editorial COM
ments on the success of the $4,000 Boy
Scout campaign. Coming from the cells
of men who as boys, had no opportunity
for Boy Scout training, the editorial, and
particularly the concluding sentence, is
fitting tribute to "the little fellows" to
whom the convicts recently presented

fully carved and painted in the correct
colors: The editorial follows:
Never within the recollection of the
oldest inhabitant' has the public been
called on to subscribe to a greater num-
Der of charities, or a greater variety of
funds than have the people of Phia-
delphia within the past six weeks. In
the face of the many appeals, it appeared
to be a hazardous undertaking for the
Boy Scouts to attempt to raise $4,000 in
three days. Is giving just habit to be
formed like any other or do people grow
weary of coughing up? These were the
questions to be answered in the result
of the venture of the Boy Scouts. And
they were answered. The success of the
venture establishes the, fact that giving
is n habit, for these little fellows made a
'whirlwind' campaign of three days dura-

MUSIC
Mime. Samarof's S Recital

If the success Of the Pension Fund for
the Philadelphia Orchestra Is to be pre-
dicted from the first effort made to
achieve it. it will be brilliant without
reservation. Artistically. and otherwise,
the work of Nine. Olga San4droff, who last
night devoted her talents to the men
whom her husband leads each weekend
in the programs of the orchestra, was
wholly satisfying. 1t ranged in the
course of the exacting program which the
pianist made for herself. through many
moods of excellence its total impression
was delight.
From a somewhat prosalc reading OF
Beethoven's second sonata, Nine. Sa-
maroff went forward with increasing in
tensity of power, and with a dazzling
brilliance of playing, through the deli
cate works of the 18th century, to Mac
Dowell, and finally in triumph to Chopin
and Liszt. She had for Graun and Benda
and Martini an unimpassioned lightness of
touch, for her second Beethoven number
vigorous attack and a startling technical
control. To the shifting emotions OF the
Mcdowell sonata, she responded with
a swift and uneTring intuition. There
were, indeed. moments when the music
which is scored ''tenderly longingly and
yet with passion seemed hardly to
justify itself. But into 1t, as it was, Nine
Samaron put all possible grace and
grandeur. Finally, in the group of shorter
studies, two by local composers, the
vlrtuoslty which she commands. was
splendidly humanlzed by the richness OF
spirit in which each separate composition
was played
Fluidlty and softness of line are rare
in Nine. Samaroffs playing, Hers are
clear outlines, sharp and incisive utter
ance and an unusual power OF declama-
tion. And yet, now and again, the sing
ing of the piano was Beautifully sustain
ed, and the gentleness OF dlotion was al
most tenderly marked. 1t is good to find,
in a pianist of Nine. samaron's present
distinction, no sluggish contentment with
success, but an unremitting labor, an i'm
passioned effort to enter and to conquer
new fields of musical feeling and express
sion. With Nine. Samaroff's artistic sense
and her indefatigable devotion to her art,
It cannot be that that effort should fail
