The catchy dialog and humorous

began professional work, who told
her that she needed a foreign-sound-

ATTRACTED by her name on the bill

cient history now. because the uniuue
and dazzling talent which she posses
ses is known to concertgoers every

regardless of her name. Those who
witnessed the enthusiasm of her audi
ence at her recital here last year will
remember the great success which her
striking personality and her splendid
playing won for her.

She had won an exceptional reputa-

She had secured in competition a
seven years scholarship in the famous
Frankfort Conservatory, she had been
favorite pupil of the greatest mod
ern teacher, Leschetizky. then she had
gone on the concert stage and made
name in Austria, Germany, France
and England.
But she found that when she arrived
in America, no credit attached to
these things. She had to start in and
win her audiences here just as IL she
had been the veriest novice. How well
she succeeded is shown by the fact
that when she arrived here four years
ago she had less than 800 in her pos
session. and to-day she holds con-
tracts for more than 100 concerts and
recitals this season.

support in the membership of the coun-
Gil but the proposition Of the Burlington
engineer was finally accepted by vote
Of II to 6. The way was left open for
the addition of further help in the de-
partment if conditions later Justify it.
Interesting action was taken by the
council in reference to the sidewalk
contracts when the contractors were or
dered to continue subject to the orders
OF the city engineer in an attempt to
get the walks in the neighborhood of
the Lincoln school completed before the
winter weather comes The question of
city garage was also discussed and
bills introduced showing that the sup
port of the city fleet Of Fords was I'M
reasonably high and that this could
be decreased considerably by the es-
tablishment of municipal garage,
with the result that committee was
appointed to investigate the question.
The long list of routine business kept
the aldermen busy and at late hour
they were still struggling over the re-
ports of the various committees.
