this week in attendance upon the
State Farmers Union Convention,
and aside from being a practical
farmer he is also newspaper man
of considerable experience. He stat
ed TO an Avalanche representative

after things out there, as is the style
now. but he lived on the farm sew
eral miles out from town, looking af-
ter the affairs of the farm, gave the
work his personal attention, and then
drove to town and got out his paper.
This was his experience in the news
paper business, and while he has
been out of that work for many
years, he still has the greatest SYM
pathy possibly for the newspaper
folks, and can have an idea about
what they have to contend with, and
the difficulties they often encounter
in the publication of newspapers.

Social Happenings of the Week
BY


The Skoysaard concert at Ardmore
high school Wednesday night prom
ises to be another splendid musical
treat Tor Ardmore people wtno have
had the unusual opportunity this
season 10 hear several we'll known
artists.
This is the first southern tour of
the famous Danish violinist. and judS-
ing from many press reports he is
scoring decided success.
The frilowine taken from Guthrie
paper tells something of his recital
in hat city:
\ select Guthrie audience uf music
lovers heard the great violin virtuoso
AXel Skovgaard, New Years Eve, in
the Guthrie Theater and enjoyed him
greatly. To many of them his name
was but a myth and they did not
know what to expect of him. as he
had never been in the southwest
before, but he proved 10 be a de-
lightful surprise TO them. While he
played some classical numbers famil-
lar TO violin lovers, his selections
were mostly new and within the range
of popular taste and heart sentiment
Skovgaard is a real master of the
violin and does not have 10 strain
after artificial effects. There is both
a delicacy and sonorousness to his
tone. His phrasing is pure classic
and unaudulterated with weak infec.
fections. lie has n commanding pres.
ence and can draw passion on pathos

ed the uadience and it called him
back for two enores.
The piano numbers by Alice Skov.
gard and soprano by Pearl Withers-
bee were also enjoyed by the audi
ence. Each was repeatedly called
back. Pearl Withersbee, besides n
cultured voice has a sylph.like, girlish
appearance, and this perhaps added
to her captivating the audience. When
she sang sweet love arias she looked
the part.
But Skovgaard. with his infinite
maze and mystery Of spiritual exal.
tation and heart longing, touched the
imagination of the audience and car
ried it off into the dreamland Of
love and happiness.
The concert was given under the
auspices of the Lions Club and music
lovers are indebted to them for an
evenings true pleasure.
