MelOland School
Parade Creates
Real Sensation

FL Centro's business section was
treated to q most unusual sight
Monday afternoon, when the pupils
of the Meloland school paraded
through the streets to celebrate the
fact that they have 100 per cent at
tendance in their school and have
over 100 pupils enrolled.
The parade was headed by an
automobile carrying the teachers and
school board of the district. AS
tride the hood of the car was q girl
dressed in q red riding costume.
All the children were in costume.
Several girls dressed to represent
angels, with wings and heavenly
robes, were mounted on horses,
while following came the balance of
the school, dressed in all sorts Of
unique costumes. There were
CLOVIS, Charlie Chaplins, fat boys,
"rubes,' imps, cowpunchers, and
so many other characters represent
ed that it is impossible to list them.
Bringing up the rear of the par
adc was Il pink horse, drawing Il
small rig which was labeled Melo-
land Bus The horse was as pink
as q baby's foot and several citizens
who witnessed the parade rubbed
their eyes to make sure they were
seeing what they believed they saw.
4 liberal supply of dye had been
applied to the natural white hair of
the horse, but he was pink just the
same, and there was no doubt about
it.
The parade was originally given
at Meloland, and made such q hit
there that Chairman Swerdfeger of
the district asked permission from
Chief Barker for q parade in this
city and the request was readily
granted. 1t was the most unique
parade seen here in long time.

NEW REDPATH
NUMBER IS OF
UNUSUAL MERIT

Fl Centre music lovers are look
ing forward with considerable an
ticipation to the next concert given
by the Redpath Lyeeum Course
at the Wilson school on January
% under the auspices of tha FL
Centre Chamber of Commerce.
The concert Will bring to this
city three exceptional artists in tho
persons of Irene Stolofsky, violin
list; John 'Shenk. baritone and
Magdalen Massman, piano accom-
panist.
Miss Stolofsky's rise to the
heights of stardom in music;l cir
cles has been phenomenal. She is
a native of Chicago, of Polish des-
cent and made her debut in profes-
sional work about 10 years ago
Since that time 6he has given CON
certs in all parts of the country
and has thousands of followers who
declare that she has no superior
among the women yiolinists Of
America.
Her training was carried on under
the careful eyes of Harry Diamond,
former concert director of the Chi
cago Symphony Orchestra. and to
him she gives credit for her won
dcrful success.
In addition to playing the great
sonatas and cOncertos, Miss Stol-
ofsky has cndeared herself to her
audiences by playing also the small
er and frequently more popular
numbers.
Magdalcn Massman is also from
Chicago and her work has drawn
the praise Of leading music critics
throughout the country. Her work
shows imagination and abundant
technique and is another proof that
it is possible TO obtain a sterling
musical education in America, as
she, like Irene Stolofsky, has been
trained in the United States.
John Shenk is rapidly making n
splendid. reputation as Il baritone,
and though Il comparatively young
man has a wonderfully developed
voice which has placed him among
the leading singers on the American
concert stage.
