MRS. FELIX HEBERT, wife of the
Avn Junior Senator from Rhode Island,
has accepted the Craftsmanship of the
Family Group Committee OF the District
of Columbia Federation OF Music Clubs.
Several years ago, when the family
group" idea originated, 1t was made
mart of the program of the National
Federation by Mrs. John Buchanan OF
Marion, Va. Interest was added TO the
movement locally through the presenta-
ton of a silver cup by Isaac Cans to be
the possession of the winning family
group until it was won by another.
The cup was in competition only one
year, and was won by the Potter family
Ruby Potter, soprano; Louis Potter,
pianist, and Louis Potter jr., violon-
cellist The group idea died from lack
of interest so far as the District OF Co
lumbia is concerned. An attempt Is
being made again to interest members
of musical families. and Mrs. Hebert Is
receiving communications from those
interested at her Wardman Park resi-
dence.
The program given last Tuesday eve

strange coincidence, presented entirely
by representatives Of family groups

While this program is by no
means final, and plans are being
made to supplement it, it seems
sufficient at the moment to keep
these composers busy during
their weeks convention. Further
news in the same field indicates
that the following interpretative
artists have signified their will
ingness to take part in the fes-
tival: Ruth Shaffner, soprano, Of
New York City; Marshall Bidwen,
organist, of DeS MoineS; John
Edmund Caldwell, tenor, of Char

$4,000 as a starter" for next

National Symphony Orchestra of
Washington. Indications point TO
much prosperity along the finan-
cial path if Westinghouse con-
tinue their support of an institu-
ton which is so we'll worth sup
porting. Thirty thousand dollars
is not half way to the goal, bur
it is splendid beginning, and
members of the various commit
tees who are working to gain sup
port from universities, choirs and
schools already feel much en-
couraged.
The fact that Mr.. Kinder con-
cluded his first season last Thurs
day in a blaze of glory was
further encouragement for the
coming year. The orchestra
needs the best anybody can give
and the best isn't too good for
it. While it is apparent that it
has, perhaps, once or twice given
programs which have been mildly
unexciting, this has happened
only on account of it's youth and
through the limitations of its size.
Another year should see it sail
ing along into untroubled waters.
Another year and there will oe
little doubt not only that Wash
ington can boast of a first-class
orchestra, but that it can boast
of having hit Immediately upon
a first-class conductor So MANY
cities have found themselves with
the orchestra material and no one
worthy of the baton. Those who
still believe that Kinder is merely
a good cello player are very much
mistaken. He is anything he
wants to be. He Is, at the mo-
ment, a good conductor And, in
cidentally, he has worked hard.
He has been father and mother
and nurse and everything else to
the orchestra.
