SIGNAL HONOR
 PAID BY PUBLIC
 ID PADEREWSKI

Impatiently watching the calendar as the date of the great Paderewsld's s first recital here in five years draws near. the desire of Bridgeport music lovers to hear again the supreme master of the pianOfOrte was whet- ted to a keener edge by the com mcnts of New York musical iriticS followed Paderewsldi's recital in New Ork cn Wednesday, of this week. No one with any pretensiCns to interest Tn music will be absent from the re cital at Polls Palace theatre Sun day afternoon, November 26th.
 In his review of the Carnegie Hall recital, the invariably cauaious and sometimes CauStiC critic. Deems Tay Tor, says in the New York World of yesterday: Since PaderewslIi left the concert stage in 1917 his personality has expanded into som mething peril ously close to a myth, a figure so being could hope to live up to it. Then he goes on o describe how Pad erewskI legend as welP' and carried it by storm.
 platform MT Taylor says, This au- dience did an unusual thing. It ap- plauded, of course, and even Cheered. But likewise, as if trained to do so, it rose and stood in his honor for d full minute"
 Continuing he writes: Tt seemed as if all the pianist in the world were in Carnegie Hall yesterday from Os sip GabrilOwitCh to Josef II Hofnan. There were violinists and 'celIists and singers and students-everybo ody who had even a holding acquain tanCe with the art of music, to say Othing of thousand or two who were just plain public They all came in the same divided mood of vel come and doubt. PaderewSki was back. but was it the same Paderw- ski. Certainly he looked the same. But his playing?
 That was what they wanted to know about. Was he the great art ist they remembered, or was this a stranger-just the former Premier Of Poland playing a piano? They soon discovered. It was the same tremendous seating capacity of the Palace will permit d repetition of the Carnegie Hall greeting here. There are seats for musicians of every shade and for a thousand or two of the plain public as well in it's four thousand capacity.
