Christian Church
Program Draws
Large Attendance

One Of the largest evening audi
ences of the year assembled last
night at the State Street Christian
church for the program presented
by representative from the high
school. Principal John L. House
gave the address. The Girls Glee
Club of the High school and two
Young ladies Of the Junior College
furnished the special musical num-
bCrs.
Mr.. House spoke briefly on the
history Of public education in Ameri-
ca stressing the difficulty expert
ehced in early years in gaining sup.
port by taxation. One legislator in
Indiana desired to have on his tomb
the following epitaph: Here Lies
Man Who Opposed Taxation for
Public Education. -
He then told something of what
the schools in our community are
striving for. "'The schools are en-
gagged in the business of building
charactcr,' he said, land they de-
sire every help that Christian people
can give them. -
The Glcc Club, under the direct
ion of Miss Margaret Collins, sang
remarkably well two numbers: "The
Be lis of St. Mary 50 and "The
Green Castle Miss Winifrcd House
and Miss Martha Ryerson then
pleasingly sang, s'Whispering
Hope
The program was the fourth of
series of Community Discovery"
programs which feature various civic
cfganizations and the work they are
doing in the city.

MRS. GREENE
BOOKS NOTED
RUSSIAN

Vladimir HorQwitz, the sensa-
tional young Russian pianist who
is announced as one of the at
fractions of Mrs. Wilson-Greene's
Philharmonic Course of afternoon
concerts at Polls Theater during
the coming 1929 season. Is
personally not at all the tempera-
mental 'lionized" young man one
would expect. OF medium height,
slim dark, twenty-four years old,
unmarried. he is modest person,
unspoiled by his success, and
primarily interested In his piano.
He talks eagerly and unaffectedly
in Russian, German and French,
but his English, he admits, is
not yet YER goot.'
Music is his passion. He plays
all day without firing, actually
practising three and a half hours
q day. His technique--and par
ticularly his famous lightning oc-
taves--is the amaZement OF the
critics, no less than his musician
ship and style.
AS a young-very young--man
he composed works for the pianos.
songs for voice. even a quartet.
But he doesn't compose any more.
He won't even show what he has
done. The only work OF his the
public has ever heard is an ex-
tremely difficult transcription or
Carmen, next to which the Busoni
arrangement is child's play. Other
wise, he prefers to be a good
pianist, he says, and leave COM
posing to the great composers.
His technique has been the sub
ject of so much comment that re.
Gently a slow motion film was
taken of his playing for the use
of music students. learning the
piano.
Horowitz plays everything by
heart. His memory Is phenom-
email. And he not only knows his
entire piano repertoire, but such
things as all the Wagner operas
by heart. Among the composers,
his favorites are Wagner, List,
and Chopin. His favorite sonata
is the Hammer sonata of List
in C sharp minor. Defending
List is favorite theme of his
and he is a staunch admirer of
what he calls the greater List"
not the List of the rhapsodies,
but the List of the sonatas and
the Mephisto waltzes.
All winter long Horowitz is
before the public. When the sum.
mer comes he relaxes in the sun
and sand and sea of the Riviera.
During July and August he can
be found at Juan Les Pins. When
he Is not at the piano, he is in
the water. He loves to swim,
and spends hours on the beach.
And. given the time and the OPP
portunity, he likes to dance. and
to motor.
