American, William B. Leeds, jr.,
husband of Xenia and son Of Prin-
cess Anastasia. These royal per-
sons are in mourning for the late
ex-King Constantine, SO all social
gaiety is banned.
New York offers it's Woolworth
building, its aquarium, Its subways,
its swirling life as advertisement to
royalty.
"I'm a democrat" said Prince
Andrew, who barely escaped execu-
ton only a few weeks ago.
Therefore, the full house, started
sightseeing, and the shy-scraping
Woolworth building received first
attention. Prince Andrew nearly
lost his royal breath going up those
fifty-two stories, and nearly froze
his feet standing on the tower get
ting a view Of the city. He was
impressed and bought six models
of the building to send his SIX chill
dren in Europe.
Prince Christopher barred his royal
bald head to get a better view of
the Wall street skyscrapers. The
princeSses thrilled and gasped over
the buildings, just like visitors from
Oshkosh.
Society is gloomy and broken.

the royal family just at the time

OLGA SAMAROFF
IS HEARD IN
RECITAL
Music Teachers and Students
Comprise Audience for
Brilliant Program
By WILLIAM MOORE.

Olga Samaroff gave a creditable
recital last night in the New Ma
sonic Temple auditorium before a
large audience composed mostly Of
music teachers and students.
There is one characteristic OF
Nine. Samaroff that stands out
head and shoulders above her abil-
ity as pianist, and that Is her
personality. Seldom do we find an
artist who can get up before a crjti-
cal audience and explain the conn
positions she is about to play in
q manner wholly unaffected, yet
authoritative.
It took deal Of courage to tell
such an audience that, in her opin-
ion, the generally accepted inter-
probation of Chopin's famous B flat
sonata was bit OFF.
To my mind" said the charm
Ing Philadelphian, "the b flat
sonata Is story Of life itself. The
first and second movements deal
with life in two distinct phases
the first serious, and the second
ment-the Marche Funebre-is not,
to my way of thinking, a funeral
march at all. 1t is the grim specter
lof death stealing upon US all. The
last movement is not the winds
whistling over the graves as the
program compilers would have us
= eve, but 1t represents to me
, terrible thing, seeking all
Jm it may devour."
She then proceeded to demon
oil TXgn
incline to the generally accepted
Interpretation OF the sonata, espe-
cially the Marche Funebre. And
we are sufficiently nid-Victorian to
believe that Chopin, after placing
his pet corpse beneath the sod,
wrote the fourth movemnt with the
idea Of visualizing either the winds
whistling over. the graves, or the
furies of hell howling with gIee
at the prospect Of obtaining another
soul. However, as Nine. Samaroff
naively put it, 1t is just a matter
Of opinion.
The HutchesOn transcription Of
Wagner's ride OF the Valkyries,' .
a favorite with the audience, was
done with brilliancy and verve.
Cyril Scott's Lotus Land" is a
beautiful, exotic thing. AS Nine.
Samaroff said, it is hard to con-
ceive Of Mr.. Scott finding an exotic
place in Britain to write such a
composition.
A tone poem. "La Cathedrale
Engloutie," gave the music students
a touch Of the ultra-modern school.
Rachmaninoff's popular G minor
prelude was vigorously applauded.
The program also included Beet
hoven's Sonata, Opus 10, No. 2, and
Brahms "Intermezzo, 'Capriccio''
and Rhapsody"

NEW YORK, Jan. ia
total of ,383,415,87O of new

1922, an increase Of IL per cent
Of the previous year, figures Of

ance Presidents showed today.
"All records in the history of
life insurance will be broken
in 1928 il the tremendous gain
in new life insurance paid for
during the last two months of

that will prevail in 1929" said
George T. Wight, manager of

The figures were based on re-
ports from forty member COM
panies which have written N
