SHAKESPEARE TERCENTARY PLANS
RECEIVED BY PENSACOLA PUBLIC SCHOOLS

When the committee from the
Shakespeare Club, comprising the
president, Mrs. Norris Bear, Miss
Margaret Mcintyre and Mrs. Frank
D. Tracy, with the other members of
this delightful literary club, launched
the tercentenary in Pensacola, they
were hardly prepared for its enthu-
siastic reception.
The first entertainment, introduc-
ing the tercentenary celebration, will
be given at the San Carlos hotel on
Tuesday, April eleventh, and will in
clude the best dramatic and musical
talent in the city, and will also In
clude dancing.
Mrs. Frank Tracy, chairman of a
committee appointed to interest the
public schools in the tercentenary
celebration, has met with great sue
cess. At the High School, Miss Josie
Loftin, teacher of the English
branches, not only promised her sup
port to the movement, but undertook
to interest the Literary Societies OF
the school. Miss Reese, principal Of
School Number One will, in addition

EXCELLENT WORK OF THE

very fortunate in having as principal
Of its school Miss M. S. Robertson,

the event Of the Myrtle Grove school

already toward the fund. This sum

to the Shakespeare program, have

Joseph B. Jockey School, Mrs. Craw-
ford, principal, has given her most en-
thusiastic support to the movement
and will also have a special program.
At a meeting of the Primary Teach
ers' Association, the utmost enthu-
siasm was evidenced, and the Shakes
peare Club feels very much pleased at
the hearty cooperation which has been
given to the movement.
The bulletins which the club will
furnish the schools have been received
and will be delivered Monday. These
bulletins contain programs appro-
pirate for the use of schools, and will
be found very helpful in planning pro
grams.
In addition to the dramatic enter
tainment, reception to the women OF

UNITED DAUGHTERS OF CONFEDERACY
TO GIVE FORNARI CONCERTS

The Soldiers Home Of Florida is
very dear to the hearts of the United
Daughters of the Confederacy. The
monuments they have reared to their
beloved dead are no more sacred and
dear to them than are the remnant
of the beloved veterans who once so
bravely wore the grey, and who are
resting for a while in the shelter of
loving care in the home the Daughters
have tried to brighten for them.
In order to render the help that the
local chapter wishes to extend to the
old soldiers, a concert will be given
under the auspices Of the u. d. c. at
the San Carlos hotel on the evening of
Thursday and Friday, March "a and
%, introducing to the Pensacola pub
lie some Of the foremost artists of the
musical world. Malvina Ehrlich,
pianist; Carmelita Wilkes, soprano:
Rodolpho Fornari, baritone, and Karel
Havlicel, violinist, compose a quar-
tet of musicians who draw large audi
ences wherever they appear. The u.
D. @. of Richmond, Va, and that of
Birmingham have recently given con-
certs introducing these musicians.
Karel Havlicek, Bohemian by
birth, came to America for the second
time in the spring of 1915. Such was
his mastery Of the violin that imme-
diately upon his arrival he was en-
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1916-03-19

gagged by Mr.. Wick, the maestro Of
the Boston Symphony Orchestra, to
uplay for that organization for the
balance of the season. Since playing
with the Boston Symphony Orchestra
Havlicek has given concerts in one
hundred and twenty cities in America.
The name Of Carmelita Wilkes is
one well known to the music lovers of
the west and middle west. Lyric
sopranos of wide range and skilful
technique are not plentiful and Miss
Wilkes voice will be appreciated by
those who have the good fortune to
listen to her numbers.
Rudolfo Foranari occupies a unique
position in that he has sung in all the
principal theatres of the civilized
world and that his repertoire en-
braces practically every baritone role
of importance. Signor Fornari
toured America and Canada with the
San Carlos Opera Company, leaving
that organization in 1909 to sing for
the Boston Opera Company, in what
he was a familiar figure until the
closing of the opera house last year
on account of the war.
Miss Malvina Ehrlicrnh, the gifted
young American pianist, made her
debut in America two years ago after
completing her musical education
abroad under the guidance of that
eminent virtuoso, Josef Lhevinne.

THE SIMPLE FAITH.

o give me the simple faith in which
the fathers trod,
The gospel Of the rugged paths that
lead cur feet to God,
The blood-red road of cross and pain
that we must go-and then,
That doctrine Of forgiving love for
men that war with men.
/ want that faith that makes no qualm
of creed for you and me,
That doctrine of old-fashioned trust
in saving grace and love,
The Scripture truths that children
learned at some old mothers
knee,
The lessons that the Bible taught of
realms of grace above
Men mock such simple faith, know,
and jeer at those who pray;
But somehow It seems sweeter here to
live our lives that way.
To try to keep the golden rule, and
help as best we can
To gain a little joy ourselves and help
our fellowman.
And so beyond the Silly deeps Of
wisdom and its scorn
Sometimes unto my ears it seems a
sweeter music borne
Because that hunger N my heart turns
everything to gold
Beneath that sweet, old-fashioned
faith to which l long to hold
