STOKOW SKIS
BATON WORKS
WONDERS

Enthusiastic followers Of the
Philadelphia Symphony Orches-
ira found in yesterdays con-
cert, by that eminent organiza-
ton, at Constitution Hall that
Leopold Stokowslxi, its regular
conductor, has truly no limits
to his capabilities with his must
clans.
Time and again 1t has been
felt that at last Stokowski had
reached the summit Of his
power. as his baton led the way
through mystic passages of
melodious masterpieces. Far
from that was the proof yester-
day, for the scholarly maestro
revealed a wealth of pOtentiali-
ties heretofore reserved.
It is awe-inspiring, to see that
commander, standing before Ito
men, as he has with countless
frequency and draw from them,
as new enchanter one mood
after another, in ABSOLUTE COM
pleteneSS.
An exhibition Of rarest tonal
coloring was given In the open
ing number, Gluck's Ballet Suite.
The four excerpts from "1phi-
genie en- Aulide," "Orphee" and
"Armide'' were beautiful con-
trasts Of orchestral coloring.
The second excerpt, Dance OF
the Blessed Spirits" from the
second act of "Orpeo ed Euri.
dice" was a glorious arrange
ment, in which the flute work
was exceptional.
The Philadelphia Symphony
Is remarkable for its ability to
turn from one mood to another
with absolute TRANSMISSION into
the new idea. This fact was
witnessed again when the Pre-
lude In b minor by Bach was
offered as the second opus on
the program.
Handles Overture in d minor
brought to the leader and his
men prolonged applause rightly
merited.
The second part Of the pro
gram was totally occupied by
the presentation of Anton
Dvorak's symphony No. 5 in E
minor, From the New World"
or as it is more generally
known, THE New World Sym
phony."
The Largo is one of the most
popular movements of the work,
breathing a lovely melody
against a background of the
familiar air Going Home"
Gaiety and happiness express
themselves in the Scherzo, with
it's graceful waltZ-like second
part. Yet 1t is in the finale
that the tremendous fullness
of the masterpiece is summed
up and expressed to the never
failing delight of the audience.
StokowSki directed without
script as in most of his con-
certS. He has established him
self fondly in the estimation Of
Washington music lovers, who
prove their admiration at each
of his appearances here, by re-
ceiying him with a wellfilled
auditorium.

HARRINGTON
WRITES A
LETTER

Booth Tarkington's latest
book, "Penrod Jashber," deals
with the ambitions of his boy
ish hero to establish a detec.
tive agency. 1t is, therefore,
not surprising that the creator
Of Penrod should be a great
adInirer of the man who, 80
years ago, projected on the
stage an undying embodiment
of the greatest detective Of
them all.
When Mr.. Harrington heard
the news that William Gillette
after many years of retirement,
would return to the stage his
season for a farewell tour of
the leading cities in his famous
representation of Sherlock
Holmes, he sat down at once
and wrote the following letter
to the actor:
Dear Mr.. Gillette:
Your return to the stage is a
noble and delightful event, and,
speaking for myself, ! would
rather see you play Sherlock
Holmes than be a child again
on Christmas morning. You
are bringing a gift to both gen.
erationS; to the elder, a revival
Of one Of its most happily ex-
citing memories, and to the
younger, an occasion it will
have the privilege of recollect-
ing permanently. The thanks
of the old and young will GO
to you, but their congratula-
tions viii be offered to them
selves.
with warmest good wishes,
