Arnold, Friday, Oct. q.
Julian B. Arnold, noted author, phil
osopher and poet AS son Of Sir
Edwin Arnold, who did so much to
acquaint the world with the philoso-
phies of India and the Orient, he in
herited an unusually rich intellectu-
al equipment.
The subject of Mr.. Arnolds lecture
will be Civilizations Debt to Litera-
ture."
Bauer, Wednesday, Oct. q.
Harold Bauer, master pianist will be
the greatest single feature of this
years festival of the arts. He needs
no Recommendation for Kenoshans IA
miIiar with regulations in the musical
world. Since the retirement of Pad
erewski, Bauer and Hoffman have oc-
cupied jointly the place in the heart
of the musical public formerly held
by the gifted Polish patriot. In tech
nique he is hardly less than wizard
but without suggesting the mechanics
which mere technique becomes when
divorced from magic and personality;
these also are his; they make him the
master-piapist.
Powys, Friday, Nov. 5.
