Three years of pioneer work has
resulted in the board of directors OF
the Indianapolis Symphony Society
through the Ona B. Talbot Fine Arts
Enterprises, being able to definitely
assure orchestral concerts for the
next several years for this city.
Even with this announcement and
assurance of the continuance of
these great concerts, every citizen
and music patron has a definite
duty.
Mrs. Talbot is now receiving sea-
son subscriptions for the three or
chestral concerts next season. Tick
cts will be ready for distribution or
June l.
1t is absolutely necessary for Mrs
Talbot TO "sell out" the Murat The
alter for every concert. That Is the
part Indianapolis must do next sea-
son.
A Big Obligation
Sold out houses have not greeted
these concerts, but Mrs. Talbot has
not given up. but has pocketed her
losses. Last season more people than
ever attended the orchestral con-
certs.
The two outstanding successes OF
last season were the Minneapolis and
Cincinnati orchestras. Both arc to
return next season.
The best way to encourage or
chestral music to buy season tickets
at once for the series next season.
This may be done by sending notice
of your yearly subscription to Mrs.
Talbot.

ganization identified with music.
All have entrance to this depart
ment. Many organizations have
done much to encourage the bring
ing here of the better musical orr
CARNATIONS.
Mrs. Talbot has struggled and
actually wept tears over the hugh
task OF presenting orchestral con-
certs in Indianapolis.
I firmly and honestly believe that
this city must have its orchestral
and fine arts concerts to maintain
It's place in the world Of music.
Talbot Talks
Mrs. Talbot today issued the fol-
lowing statement:
Three years ago it was decided
by a few resolute and hopeful souls
that the time had come to find out
whether Indianapolis had reached
the stature Of a symphony orchestra
city. At that time the test was
financed and a season of three con-
certs was announced. The at

tendance at these concerts was en-
couraging, but It would have been
possible to abandon the project with
good grace and leave the impression
that the project had been premature.
But the experiment was repeated
No concession was made I'm the pro-
grams to the popular musical whint

were convinced that a trial on the
three-year basis was justified. and
made their subscriptions accordingly
