New York.-The BraininE Jubilee
Committee headed by Joseph Barond-
ess, chairman; Solomon .Lamport,
treasurer, and Bernard Shelvif, hon
orary secretary, announces that all
preparations have been made for the
celebration of the sixtieth birthday Of
Reuben Brainin, to be held at Car
negie Hall, next Sunday evening, Oc-
tober 22nd.
Reuben Brainin has with his up
ward of forty years of literary ac-
tivity, earned for himself the title of
Dean of. Hebrew Letters and ranks
in Jewish literature as high as Georg
Brandes in European Letters, or Ana
tole France in French literature And
not only has Brainin been itterateur,
but there is mot Jewish movement
looking toward the national and cul-
tural rehabilitation, in which Brainin
has not participated, because he is
not only writer, but also. a man of
deeds, dreamer but fighter as we'll.
A number Of the most prominent
speakers will participate in the cele-
bration and the musical program will
include the four world-famous cantors,
Mordecai Herschman, Zavill Kwar-
tin, David Roitman and Yoselle Rosen-
blatt; also Sacha Jacobson, the vir-
tuoso violinist, Harry Kaufman, Efrim
Zimbalist's accompanist, at the piano,
and Louis Rosza, Metropolitan Opera
Company's baritone. Besides this, the
children of the Hebrew schools will
sing vocal selections appropriate for
the occasion, and on the whole, the
celebration will be one long to be
remembered.
