The instruction is given by Mrs
Marie Left, a German by birth, who
was brought up in Russia. She is pc
culiarly fitted for her work, as she
speaks a number of languages. is
highly educated both in the classics
and the PHILOSOPHERS of continental
Europe, and is in sympathy with the
workers in their ambitions for bet
tering their conditions in their new
home.
Some years ago she suffered the
perils and hardships of an escape from
a Siberian prison, where She was sent
for the part she took in trying to
teach the peasants of Russia In her
early youth she went from her home
in Germany to Russia, accompanying
an uncle. who was the German consul
to ST. Petersburg. Two years ago she
spent several months in Paris, and
was engaged for short time in hos
pital work after the beginning of the
war. She is engaged as interpreter
for the Santa Fe in Topeka, and her
work as teacher is undertaken in ad-
dition to her regular employment.
The school gives entertainments
regularly. and an evening of music
| Thursday night was attended by a
number of West side people, includ-
ing some Washburn young people,
who furnished a part of the program.
Some of the numbers were given by
the students on native Russian and
| German instruments. and there were
some songs by the entire school. Mrs.
Left was presented with a bouquet of
roses by the students.
