First Young Peoples
Symphony Concert Given

This seasons series of the New York
Symphony Orchestra's Concerts for
Young People opened yesterday after
noon at Carnegie Hall. with Ossip
Gabrlowitsch as soloist. SO justly
popular have these concerts, and the
informal explanatory talks which Mr..
Damrosch gives with them, because that
with standing room only and the
concert room was filled to ovcrhowing.
The arcana of the orchestra-the
foibles of the iddles and the folles of
the futes-are not laid bare in this
series with quite the frankness that
prevails in the Saturday morning chill
dren's series. Temptation is strong to
grow confidential with the eager and
frolicsome age of ten, whereas an audi
ence in its teens Is serious affair,
and decorum must be observed.
Mr.. Damrosch limited his discussions
yesterday to two numbers of widely
contrastcd Observation-Disclosures Sec
ond Symphony and Debussy's Der
ceuse croique'-leaving Mr.. Gabrilo-
witsch to speak for himself in LISTS
Piano Concerto in A, and closing the
program with Saint-Saens's French
Military March, which needed no ex-
planation.
To pass from the Beethoven SYM
phony to the Debussv piece, which had
its first orchestral performance here
Thursday night, was an object lesson
not only in the difference between
modes old and new, but also in the
power Of music to express shades of
JOY and sorrow. The symphony is care
free, sporting with make believe ter
rors, filled with light anti sunshine.
The Debussy work Mr. Damrosch ex-
planned as the dark dreamings of q
Belgian soldier in the trenches at
night, lying within sound Of distant
guns, his thoughts dwelling now on a
grooming cradle song of his childhood,
now on the call to war, the recurring
strains of LA Brabanconne" suggest
ing his ardor in defense of the home
land

morrow.

today.

follows;
A certain we'll known man in the
city, bachelor, was eryfond of the
little family OF an old chum Of his
who had married a number of years
ago. The family consisted wife and
three youngsters, the children all be-
low nine years Of age. When the head
of this admirable family group left on
a business trip recently 1T was the
express direction left behind that
friend bachelor should look out jor
his family. Those kids Of mine arc
a bunch to take out anywhere, John, {"
said the business man. Help them
along now and then, old boy" All OF
which John promised.
A phone message few nights
later informed Mr.. Bachelor that his
services were required the next night
in helping bring home the wife and
Riddles who were all visiting in the
country. "Inded, I'd be glad Of your
help, John," complained the wife,
who seldom went any place without
help Of some kind. So John, the
Bachelor" as he was frequently call
ed by his friends, went around after
his charges. really glad to be of SER
vice. /,
All went merrlly as the Eve trudged
along a country road toward the
street car which was to convey thela
back to town. The night was dark.
Bachelor John was thinking Of a
number OF things as he held one child
by one hand and another baby by the
other hand. while his friends wife
with tho oldest daughter came quistly
along In the rear.
After waiting some time for the
car. which was late, with every child
determined to tell all he knew and
more Of family affairs, the party were
seated finally inside. Bachelor John
sat with one child on one knee and
another on the other knee, which was
as 1t usually turned out whenever his
services were needed. When the con-
dpctor came around for fares John
handed out one too many. On the car
