DR.. Thomas Masaryk, president Of
Czechoslovakia, will, on March 2, cele-
brate his eightieth birthday anniversary,
and because he has so many country
people and also so many admirers in the
United States, great preparations are
afoot to have the elaborate three-day
program radioed TO this country. The
venerable statesman, who drew the draft
of his country's constitution while liv-
ing in Washington, was three years age
chosen President for life of the repub-
lie that has been formed of Bohemia
and her sister states and his people
seem never to tire Of showering new
honors and privileges upon him. At the
celebration the music will be especially
fine, all the ancient Czech hymns and
martial songs, and all the folk lore
which Bohemians, Moravians and Slo-
vaks have chung to during the years of
their oppression will be rendered by
symphony orchestraS and choral So
cieties and will be broadcast to this
country and many others. A noted
Czech scholar. Carel Capek, is putting
the finishing touches to the most elab-
crate and comprehensive life of the
Bohemian patriot which has yet been
published and beautifully-bound copy
will be among the many gifts which
President Masaryk will receive on the
morning of March 2. A renowned orator
Of Prague will deliver the Grafton, THE
Czechoslovak State" in the afternoon,
and this, too, will be broadcast. On the
evening Of March 2 the Bohemian
drama, "Monastir," will be given in the
former imperial Austrian theater by an
El-Bclemian cast.
