SUPERBAT
CONCERT
Leader of Philadelphia Organ
ization Carries Interpreta-
ton to Magic Heights.

There could have been no more
enraptured auditors than Johann
Sebastian Bach and Ludwig van
Beethoven at the concert of the
PHILADELPHIA Orchestra, Leopold
Stokowski conducting, in the New
National Theater, yesterday after
noon.
If the two masters-yes, and
Richard Wagner-had lived to hear
the magnificent Interpretation OF
their works by this great assembly
of artists, under such mastery
direction. they might have been
recompensed for the efforts of the
throng of transformations.
Yesterdays concert cannot be re-
membered as a concert. In the
memories of those who were so
fortunate as to press into the
crowded auditorium, the occasion
must be recalled in terms of superla-
tive light and color. They must
know that they have heard the
essence of music, and have come
nearer to a true appreciation of what
music means.
The concert opened with Bach s
Passacaglia in c. Minor, a monu-
mental conception conducive to awe,
which Immediately won the favor of
the audience. Stokowski himself
wrote the orchestration of this opus,
it having been originally composed
for Bach's favorite medium, the
organ.
Paul Kochanski, violinist, appeared
with the second offering, Beethoven's
concerto in ID minor, for violin and
orchestra The soloist's fingers of
steel proved themselves worthy of
the masterpiece, while the orchestra
responded nObly to the requirements.
Kochanski, saving neither of
technique nor of fire. played with
amazing fidelity and sympathy. The
last movement, rOndo, one of great
contrast and fervor, brought forth
the utmost of conductor, soloist and
orchestra.
The Vorspiel and Liebestod from
Tristan" the final number. were
fashioned by the orchestra into a
tapestry of glowing grandeur. All
of the passion of this miracle-music
was transformed into a glorious song
There are no words for this but
those Of praise, and they are ridicu-
lousy Inadequate.

AN OLD RECIPE
TO DARKEN HAIR
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Turns Gray, Faded Hair
Dark and Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly COM
pounded, brings back the natural
color and lustre to the hair when
faded, streaked or gray. Years ago
the only way to get this mixture
was to make it at home, which is
mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for "Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound" You will get
a large bottle of this old-timA
recipe improved by the addition of
other ingredients, at very little cost.
Everybody uses this preparation
now, because no one can possibly
tell that you darkened your hair,
as it does it so naturally and
evenly. You dampen a sponge or
soft brush with it and draw this
through your hair. taking one
small strand at q time; by morning
the gray hair disappears. and after
another application or two, your
hair becomes beautifully dark, thick
and glossy and you look years
younger

CONGRESS DATE
CHANGE FACES
FIGHT
House Leaders Plan to Give
Proposed Amendment Full
Consideration.
BY International News Service.

BY International News Service.
The proposed constitutional amend
ment providing for the meeting OF
new Congresses on the first Monday
in January after the elections In
November and for inauguration OF
the new President on the third Mon
day in January following his cleo
ton, already passed by the Senate,
will encounter stiff opposition in
the House, it was learned today.
1t is expected the amendment
resolution will be reported faVoraoly
from the House committee on elec-
ton of President, Vice President
and Members of Congress without
delay. The resolution was framed
Jointly by this committee and mem
bers of the Senate Privileges and
Elections Committee. While some
changes were made in the resoIu
ton by the Senate it is said these
changes were not of a character
to force the House committee to
Withdraw it's support.
House leaders, Republican ana
Democratic, will not accept the pro-
posed constitutional amendment
without careful consideration. There
is hostility among them to changes
in the Federal Constitution. Among
the half-doZen amendments pro-
posed to the House by different
members during the past year, but
one was passed by the House-that
providing for ending issuance OF
tax-exempt securities-and this got
through after a vigorous fight, al
though the full weight of the Ao-
ministration was swung behind it.
The amendment proposing changes
in dates of Inauguration and meet
ing of new Congresses has not
been before the House, and it's pas
sage was rushed in the Senate to
make way for other legislation.
House leaders said today House
members would be given full time to
consider the importance of the mat
ter before being called upon to act.
Without the consent of the Speaker
and the House Rules Committee the
amendment resolution cannot be
brought before the House during the
present session. %
