it. My experience with NU-L1FE

My rheumatism has gone. I am

.SOLOISTS PLEASING
At FIRST CONCERT
Mrs, futile and Mr.. Rosenberg
Delight Large Audience

Tho first concert OF the season IN
the Camp school auditorium, spon-
sored by the New Britain Musical
club. started well last night. The
turnout OF club members and their
guests was highly encouraging and
they heard as fine a program as the
most eXacting could wish. The pro-
gram, given by Mrs. Jane s. futile,
'contralto, and Israel Rosenberg.
pianist, began promptly at S:l5 and
ended at 5;@i--as short and sweet u
morsel Of artistic cndcavor as the
Musical club ever gave. The audi
cnce vas not eager to depart, but no
amount Of applause could lcngthen
the program.
But what the audience didn't
know was that one of the partici-
pants labored under extreme diff
culties. Mr. Rosenberg had gone for
A. hours without sleep, due to a
serious disorder with a tooth. When
( he sat in front OF the piano the tooth
was forgotten. although there was
no comfort in the thought that the
rccalcitrant member might burst
forth in pain any moment-and
right in the middle OF selection, at
that. Judging by his playing, how
ever, nobody suspected that the
pianist wasn't in fine form.
Mrs futile, with a highly sympa-
/ thctiC accompaniment by President
/ Theron w. Hart Of the club, never
sang with such tender sweetness.
| II was a great night for Mrs. futile
and the audience was swayed with
the enchantment Of her song. Her
voice was the acme of fexibility and
vibrant resonance and her style flaw
less. Her selections were rather out
out OF the ordinary, too, and In an
aria from Merchants almost for
gotten work, Donna Caritea," she
faithfully depicted its placid mood.
A selection by Haydn, quite as in
frequently sung, led to the beautiful
"Lungi dial Caro- BENZ" by Seechi,
and the Ultima Canzone" by Tos-
Il, two numbers which the audience
received with special gratitude. And
then. the fine Carl Bohm classic,
Calm AS the Night" in which mel
ody and poetry are so ideally match
ed that the song will never die. Her
list lightened to Guion's "Greatest
Miracle of AL" with its exquisite
banjo-likc accompaniment, which
Mr., Hart played with astonishing
fidelity. Stricklands my Lover Is
a Fisherman" ended her contribu-
tons.
Mr. Rosenberg has been earning
an enviable reputation in these parts
and despite his temporary discom-
future due to a bad tooth, was in
no mood to lose any of his hard
won laurels last night. He certainly
didn't. He opened with q small
Coupern piece that served the pur-
pose Of warhing up his digits and
getting them used TO the piano ac-
ton: and then the fireworks started

Among It's difficulties with the

made.
The apparent inconsistence be-
tween the two systems Of the GUS

cause OF attempting to reconcile

two brothers could not be telling the

appearing for the Jacobs, told the
court that he was of the opinion that
all three were lying.
Patrolman AXcl Carlson said that
he found the three men fighting on
Lafayette street Saturday night and
he arrested Israel Jacobs and Sargis
but Ophrin left the scene and was
not arrested until Sunday night
Ophrin claimed that he arrived at
the fight after it was over and had
played no part in it.
From the testimony, It seemed
that enmity exists between the ia
cobs and Sargis because of a law
suit brought by Ophrin against Sar-
gis. After listening to the conflict
ing stories of the affair, Judge Alling
gave Ophrin the benefit of the doubt
and discharged him, but fined the
two others SO and costs.
