1T is mad, fantastic, and bitter
4 ly satiric tale that Myron BRING
tells in THE Flutter of an Eyelid."
A Boston novelist goes to Califor-
MIA for rest. Arriving, he finds
himself in new world. Everything
seems topsy-turvey; the people are
restless and their deeds are unpre-
dictable.
CALIFORNIA; air and sunlight go
to our novelist's head, and presently
in now-you-See-it, now-you-
don't manner that gets pretty con-
fusing occasionally-he sets out to
write novel about his new &C
quaintances and finds that they are
following in real life the f1ctional
plot he has laid down for them.
Furthermore, although he is arbiter
Of their destinies, he never can tell
what he is going to write next.
There's a gorgeous woman evan
gelist who spies a simple minded
sailor and decides that he is a new
Messiah. The sailor always sort of
thought so himself, so he lets her
exploit him. He breaches, heals the
sick, signs a movie contract, proves
his divinity by walking on the
oceans surface-and suddenly loses
his grip when a naked girl swims
up to him, so that he drops below
the surface and browns.
Then there's womap/with PEN
chant for poisoning her husbands, a
suburban mayor who goes to break
up a nudiSt dance and remains to
participate, a young poet who meets
the great god Pan on an island
and so on.
And it all makes a most unusual
book-one that is wholly mad in
places, savage and caustic in other
places, and here and there set of
with wild and moving beauty.
Published by Farrar and Rine-
hart, it sells for 81.

When MiScha was only 10, his
father, Saul Elman, was told by his
sons teacher, Leopold Auer, that
mysterious stranger had been so i'm
pressed by Mischa's playing that he
had purchased an expensive violin
for the boy.
Mischa's father went to get the
instrument, the beautiful Amati.
1T will not be difficult to imagine
the scene when I brought home
the VIOLIN" the father says in
Memories of MiScha Elmans
Father" recently published in New
York City. "Mischa was the hap
piest child on earth and I the hap
piest of fathers.
Owe Danced About Room"
"Our joy was so great that for
some time we danced about the
room. holding the violin like two
children at play with some toy. A
3,OOO-ruble violin was something out
of a fairy tale.
MY eyes still grow moist when
I think of that night-when my
boy was still the simple child, all
mine; our pleasures and joys shared,
with no devouring world to come
between"
Later it became known that the
donor was the Grand Duke Meek
lembourg- Strelitz, relative Of the
car.
Although Mr.. Elman today is the
possessor of two Stradivari violinS,
it is the first Italian violin which
remains one of his dearest and most
valued possessions.
Wife Gave Valued Violin
One Stradivarius Mischa owns is
one of the first three violins in the
world and was presented to him by
his wife. 1t is dated TIT and was
purchased in Paris.
The other Stradivarius, dated
1922, was once in the possession of
Joachim, the great German maestro
who pronounced Elman "a finished
artist" when only II years old.
The Joachim "Strad" was pur-
chased by Elman's father for his
American debut.
Mischa has many fond memories
but he cherishes one especially. In
1905 when he was only IS and had
made his first appearance in Lon
don. he was commanded by King
Edward VII of England to appear at
court.
Caruso Agreed With King
After playing for the king of
England and in the presence of the
king of Spain, King Edward leaned
against the piano and said to
Caruso:
Isn't he wonderful"
Mischa recalls that the great
Caruso. far from being offended
because the king had bestowed
such praise on a mere boy, agreed
heartily with his majesty.
"Caruso was the soul of friendli-
ness and bigness," Mrs. Elman often
has said. Il never caught him dis
playing the slightest trace OF pro-
fessional jealousy"
Daughter Wins Contest
Mr.. Elman, besides being one of
the worlds greatest violinists, is a
splendid husband and father. His
wife and 3-year-old daughter gen.
orally accompany their father on
long ocean trips.
Recently when Mr.. Elman and his
wife were returning to Europe, his
daughter won a beauty contest with
a prize of 500 francs which paid for
her passage.
Mr.. Elman's program for Sunday
afternoon at EngliSh's under the
management of Mrs. Nancy Martens
is the same which he will give in
New York City soon.

SINGING BOYS
TRIUMPH HERE
IN BIC CONCERT
0ffenbaCh's Wedding by
Lantern-Light' Is
Beautiful.
BY WALTER D. HICKMAN

Children under the right training
can capture the beauty Of a great
religious mood and then with as
much talent capture the melodious
comedy Of Jean Jasques Ofenbach's
Wedding BY Lantern-Light,"
comic opera
Such was the accomplishment last
night at the Murat by the Vienna
Singing Boys CWiener Saengerkna-
benz who were brought here by the
musical organizations Of st. Philip
Neri Parish Of which the Rt. Rev.
Msgr. r. r. NOll is pastor.
Boys stIl in their teens make up
this organization. There was so
much beauty Of tone and such a
spirited response in all moods Of
these boys that made this concert
unique in the history Of this city.
Audience Appreciates Work
These boys began their program
with our National Anthem and then
developed in a most significant way
In Festo Ascensionis: o Rex
glOrae."
I am sure that the marvellous sin
cerity and artistry of expression
found in the first group on the pro-
gram made many envious of the
talent present.
An envy which made large audi
ence appreciate the training and
the ideals backs Of these singing
boys.
To my way of thinking, the way
these boys took the parts Of the
male and female in Offenbach's
Wedding BY Lantern-Light" was
ample proof Of the ability Of these
singers.
Not only did they capture the
fun of the story but they obtained
characterization which one would
expect from adults.
Triumph in Concert
It was surprising with what ease
these boys triumphed in difficult
passages Of song as we'll as comedy
characterization. Here was a gem
of melodious comedy made extreme
ly enjoyable by the natural artistry
of group Of boys.
The Offenbach opus was done in
costume before a rural setting 1t
was remarkable the way the boys
caught the spirit Of fun which Of
fenbach has present in this comic
opera.
At times, I could not realize that
boys in their teens were responsible
for such a satisfactory presentation
of this work
1t was enjoyable to watch the
faces Of these singers in every mood
of song. Here was eager, intelligent
and spontaneous response to the
will of the director.
Here was beauty of youth in song
that one seldom finds.
