last year taking a friend who was not a
Philadclphian with me to the orches-

house, and between the first and second
numbers she leaned toward me and said.
"Who is that lovely looking girl? l

orchestra, was SO taken with her rnpt
expression und enjoyment of the music. y
And it was Polly in a box looking her

To return to the concert. OF course, |
It's benefit, but that makes It all the
