Holy Harp Recital.

Yesterday afternoon, in spite of the
inclement weather, small audiepce
gathered in the Chinese room of the
Hotel Mayfiower to hear Alfred Holy,
harpiSt of the Boston Symphony Or
cheStra, in a short recital.
II is obvious that Mr.. Holy has
been engaged in orchestral work for a
long time for his playing emphasizes
tempo rather than Interpretation. He
took some liberties in the Saint Saens
Fantasy" not emphasizing its three
distinct climaxes and inserting a few
glissandos of his own. MIR. Holy S
playing of the tinkling passages domi-
nant in the lighter works was eX-
tremely facile and he secured some
good lower tones in the Saint-Saens
composition.
The most enthusiastically received
of his numbers seemed to be Rubin
STEMS 'Reve Angelique." in which
the dreamy mood was well portrayed.
Mr.. Holy also appeared in the role of
composer. playing three of his own
works. "In Springtime," Romance"
and Spa nish Dance" His other mum
bers were a prelude by Kovarovic, a
nocturne by Ferroni, and serenade
by Hasselmans. Mr.. Holy announced
his two encores to be Spindler's For
est Brook and Moszkowski's Span.

on April 3, 1925, only S127,4l5 of the

provided to rehabilitate the vessel,
which is now at Boston rotting away.
School children of the country are
being urged TO contribute cents each

has estimated that this contribution
from each child would cover the cost.

GERMAN ACCESSION
PLEASES LEAGUE.
Special Assembly May Con-
vene to Extend Formal
Invitation.

GENEVA, February 4.-The quick
decision of the ReichstaG's foreign
relations committee approving Ger
many'S entrance into the League or
Nations without conditions has caused
the greatest satisfaction in league
circles.
AS soon as Germany's application
for membership is received II Is eN-
pected that Sir Eric Drummond, the
secretary general, NIL conFoke an eN-
traordinary session of the council 10
meet next week, so that special as
sembly MAY be summoned to extend
an invitation to Germany THIS as
sembly will be held probably early in
March, so as to permit Germany to
take Il seat as permanent member
in the regular March session OF the
council.
Germany VIII become the fifty-sixth
member, of the league and the first
permanent member of the council
named since the league was founded
the other permanent members, Great
Britain. France, Italy and Japan, hay
ing held their places from the be-
ginning.
Germany's action will have some
effect on the procedure of the forth
coming disarmament conferences. AS
a member of the council, Germany
automatically Will have military,
naval and aviation delegates in the
leagues permanent advisory commits
sion on military matters. which is eX-
pected to play a big role in the dis
armament meetings, as all technical
problems will be turned over to 1t for
an opinion.
This raises the question of whether
the United States Will be invited to be
represented in this advisory commits
sion.
League officials predicted last night
that the American delegation to the
preparatory commission will be re-
luested to participate as temporary
members of this advisory body or at
least i'll some consultative capacity.

made to have her used as a target for

of public protest went up, and she

Among Navy records pertaining to
the Constitution is a tale of how a
Navy board condemned the ships
