"The first number" said David Du-
binsky rising from his little wooden
chair in front of the shell. ''is the over =
ture from William Tell. I suppose that
you have all heard of William Tell?'
A hundred odd sunburned arms went
up from the front benches. before the
Lemon Hill pavilion where the Fair

its third concert for children this morn :

Mr.. Dubinsky smiled understand dingly
as one who would say, "Wcll. that's

fully and then remarked. Il wonder
how many of you know what an over

Well that was wonder quickly dis
sipated. They all knew what an over.

The Fat Boy Explains
However, Thea fat boy in the first
bench seemed to know 1t with more
ardor than anybody else. He was al
lowed to tell. But such was his eager
ness he had to say it three times before
he could say 1t straightly.

Exactly !" said Mr.. Dubinsky, de-
lighted that the nail should have been
hit so neatly. 'Or you might say,
what they play while they are slamming
down the benches. An overture is like
preface to book; important, but
very often neglected. 1t tells you what
to expect.
Now if you listen carefully you will
hear the whole story of William Tell.

will hear the storm on the mountain

then the concert was begun.

Mr.. Dubinsky first gave them marginal
notes with their music. He repeated
the story of the enchanted nutcracker,
