Community Center Department in
it's first concert of the season. The
program opened with the overture
"Robespierre" by Litolf, in which
the able conductor, Kurt Hetzel,
brought out the sentiment of the
particular historical period, climax
ing in the French national hymn,
lie Marseillaise The members of
the orchestra showed a commend
able following of his musical leader
ship. The same may be said of the
other numbers of the orchestral
program-"Suite by Hadley" Dance
Macabre" by Saint Saens and 1.-THE
Fledermouse" overture by Strauss.
The soloist was Miss Elizabeth
Gates, a pupil of Nine. Marie Won
Unschuld, who played the List
Concerto in E Flat Major" Her
splendid technique and spirited
phrasing of the different moods of
the four movements. her enjoyable
evidence of youthful power, which
is particularly necessary in this
brilliant composition, we're highly
appreciated by an enthusiastic audi
ence which recalled her several
times. The young pianist is decid-
edly on her way to a brilliant musical

This coming March perhaps you
may be in Georgia and can avail
yourself of the opportunity to visit
the nesting grounds of the thou
sands of willets that gather to build
their nests and raise their young.
The parents have already put on
their speckled garments which

they at first almost escape your at

with the growth all about them.

You will know at once when you are
near their nursery grounds, for
their incessant "pill-will- willet" is to
be heard not only all day long, but
through the night.
The willets love to stroll the
beach. They droop their tails,
stretch their necks to their limit
with bills pointed earthward, and
viblate their wings at a steady, swift
gait. The white tail coverts are dis
played, and the walkers are appar-

your presence is not quietly an
nounced by few who have become
aware of your intrusion, but the
