FAMOUS VIOLINTST TO
! PLAY IN CONCERT HERE
Josef Konecny and His Assist
ing Artists Will Appear Here
; Wednesday, May Is

? Bemidji and vicinity will have a
rare opportunity, II not the chance
of a lifetime, to hear Josef Konecny
the celebrated violin virtuoso, and
his assisting artists on Wednesday,
May IS, under the AUSPICES of the
-harmonick club at the Methodist
church. $500.
\ It Is seldom that Bemidji has the
opportunity Of hearing and seeing a
great artist-a man who through his
genius has carved out a niche for
himself in the world. Even the larg-
ter cities do not have such oppOrtun-
ities-perhaps only a few times a
year.
The violin, the "king of instru-
ments;" in the hands Of a. master, is
the most potent of all instruments.
Fond recollections of the family cir
Gle, of friendships, and everything
that is dear to the heart-sentiments
that everyone feels and ~ cherishes
more than words can express--these
are the things that are brought home
by the violin of this Bohemian wiz
ard, For he has been blessed with
the divine spark Of interpreting the
great works of the master in that
universal language Of the heart,
which makes them intelligible to all.
There is som ething more than music
that comes from his bow; 1t is that
indefinable something which makes
one feel, that makes one think, and
sends thrill through his audience.
