Mr.. Smith brings to light many
interesting sidelights of the life
of j. S. Bach in the June issue
of Coronet. AS an organist, Mr..
Smith claims, Bach began to
improviSe on the hymn tunes
during church services. When he
went to town, he left the congre-
CATION dumfounded, unable to
find the melody anywhere"
THE bulk of Bach'S music
played in our concert halls in
cludeS only the exercises, and the
sketches which he wrote for his
own development and for the edu-
cation of his family. They were
never intended for pompous Car
negie Hall consumption.
The final orchestral program Of
the season will be given tonight
by the U. S. Marine Band at 8
o'clock at the Marine Barracks,
Capt. Taylor Branson conducting.
The program follows: Overture,
Academic Festival" (BrahmS)
Song of Summer" Delius); vio-
lin solo with orchestra, "Tzingane"
(RaveD, played by Albert Schoep-
per; Symphony No. l" CTregina);
"Sarka,' from symphonic poem,
my Fatherland" (Smetana); and
Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2"
Giszt).
The theme shown above is in
troduced by the BASES and Is re-
peated many times, leading on to
a swift ending.
Nine. Marie Zalipsky will pre-
sent a group of singers in scenes
from operas tonight at $50 O'Clock
at Pierce Hall. The program will
open with a brief poetic scene,
"Serenade," with music by Braga
in which Frances McHaffey and
Elena Volkova will sing the roles
of a mother and child. The pro-
gram continues: "Children's Duet
and Dance" from "HanSel and
Gretel" (HumperdincD, played by
Lila Zalipsky and Johanna Koe-
mig; Music Lesson Scene" from
"Doubrovsky" Napravnik), sung
by Beatrice Oxenburg and Dome
mic Baiardo; "Pastorale" from
"Pique Dame" (Tschaikowsky),
sung by Therese Buckley, Alice
Aycock, and Gordon Dyke;
Shadow Song" from "Dinorah"

eerie touches for this type has
been overdone. .
Most women with this flgure
difficulty buy dresses that are 100
snug in the armholes. Special at
tention should be given to the
size and cut of the armhole. Sleeve
lengths also play an important
part. A short sleeve that stops
at the largest part Of the bust
exaggerates this measurement. IL
is better to wear sleeves that are
three-quarter length, or long:
Necklines are important. Inc
V,style is most flattering to this
type figure, while the high neck
line gives the small girl a better
bust contour.
A wide belt accentuates the size
of both bust and waist. Thin belts
are Slimming. If you tend TO
thickness about the waist, never
wear anything shiny there to catch
the eye. Mr.. Anderson likes the
slightly raised waistline for the
petite girl and the tall, slim girl,
and the natural waistline for the
large figure. Now that skirts are
short" he says, lets stay away
from the long waistline."
Hips present an individual prob
lem.

Mr.. Anderson, give me a

Large legs appear to best ao'
vantage in skirts that are straight
and not too full. If your legs are
too thin or too fat, you should
disregard fashions new shades in
hose and wear the color which
most closely matches the skirt.
Also, it is we'll to keep away from
trick shoes. Mr.. Anderson advises
the girl with too thin legs never
to wear very sheer hose, and to
favor skirts that are pleated or
soft or fluffy about the hemllne
AS to dress materials: The large

prints are dangerous to fat
and thin alike" Mr.. Anderson
says. For, with prints, you do
not see beyond the charm of the
flowers and forget to watch the
silhouette"
Mr.. Anderson considers ample
curves easier to camouflage than
angles, and likes figures on the
curved order, particularly with the
more romantic style of today.
