the encouragement he has received
from the voters of Maysville is most
gratifying. Mr.. Arm, or Brownie"
as he is known by host of friends
and associates, is one of the most
popular young men in our city, and
one who cherishes the friendship of
his acquaintances as treasure Fred
Arm is one of Maysville's most prom
ising business men; clean, con-
scientious liver, a man of creative
mind and virtuous thought, and one
who has earned the privilege of being
termed working man, with a sim
cere desire in his heart, to serve his
fellowmen, and hoping to some day
reach the point in his life where he
might be instrumental in causing the
fireside in the homes of workingmen
to burn brighter and to help the poor
man to give his children the oppor-
tunities that are rightfully theirs.
From the general run of conversa-
tion heard among the voters on the

years.

RECITAL PLEASES
LARGE AUDIENCE
Jacobinoff and Mildred FaaS
Win New Laurels at We'd
nesday Club Concert

An audience of eager listeners
limit of its capacity, greeted Sascha
Jacobinoff and Mildred Faas. who
appeared in concert last evening un-
der the auspices of the Wednesday
Club.
Jacobinoff played the opening
number Sonata in d Major" by
Handels. and the various movements
were beautifully rendered.
Miss Faas sang as her first song a
dainty little number, "Mignonette."
1t is an old French melody, and she
won showers of applause. Her
"Printemps Nouveau" was sincerely
appreciated. but in "Nymphs ct Syl-
vains" she reached full coloratura
heights, and displayed the fiexibil-
ity of her voice. AS an encore she
gave an old Russian melody.
Francouer-K Kreisler's "Sicilienne
and Rigaudon" was Jacobinoff's next
number. "Apres un Reve" and
"Chant du Voyageur" were also
roundly applauded. In his Spanish
characteristic style. he again reached
the hearts of his auditors. The
dance is a beautiful Spanish charac-
teristic. exceptionally well played.
Two bright little sings, Tears
Those Dear Eyes Sadden," and The
Goddess in the Garden" followed.
interpreted by Miss Faas. She dis
played delightful quality and a
happy Tilt in her singing which
caught the listeners fancy. Soft
Footed Snow was another beauti-
al I., which
followed, Miss Faas seemed to fairly
vibrate with the joy and the hap
piness of living. A charming little
song was given by her as an encore,
and the audience tried to bring her
back again with storms of applause,
but all in vain.
Lovely Cradle Song
The young violinist followed with
Brahms Waltz" as his number.
Rogers "Wiegenlied" was a dreamy,
drowsy cradle song, and he played
it just as a mother croons the sweet
lullaby to her child in the evening
twilight. The spirit of the Orient,
with its pagodas and temples. was
reflected in "Tambourin Chinois.
the closing number. AS an encore,
Caprice Viennois," by Fritz krels-
Ter, was played by Mr.. Jacobinoff.
There is, in the singing of Mildred
Faas, a lightness and grace and
sincerity which are a delight to her
audience. Absence of affection and
absolute lack of elaborateness char
acterize her sweet, simple little
songs as rendered by real vocalist,
In Jacobinoff, the spirit of youth
pulsates through every note he plays.
The romantic spirit with which he
is endowed, was well displayed in
the numbers.
In Clifford Vaughn's lace-like ac--
compartment, there was joy and
sorrow and conflicting emotion eX-
pressed just as much as in the work
of the other artists. A noble dignity
and understanding accompaniment
place him on a pinnacle with Miss
Faas and Jacobinoff.
