BE CAREFUL IN FORESTS
State Game Warden Issues In
structions Not To Shoot Near
CCC Camps

An appeal is being made at this
time by E. Lee LeCompte, State Game
warden, TO hunters throughout the
state 10 be careful where they shoot,
as there are several CCC camps To-
Gated IN Garrett county and the young
men Of these camps are out in the
woods much Of the time. Ill.,. ..
Hunters are being asked not to
T.. shoot toward a CCC camp or in the
vicinity where men are working, and
are being especially warned to look
before shooting. Superintendent of
all CCC camps have received word
from headquarters to post warning
signs about one-half mile in all direc-
5ions surrounding said camps and

vent the "red menace" of fire from
destroying the forest areas. Drop
ping matches or emptying a pipe or
throwing a lighted cigar or cigaret or
the ground may cause a fire unless
the person is sure that the fire is out.
Preventing forest fires will preserve
wildlife and covers and food on which
wildlife must depend.

simple melodies. His mother began
to teach him and the progress he
made was astonishing that before
long lessons were given in real earn
est.
When he was six he was taken to
play for the late Walter Henry Roth
well, then conductor of the Los
Angeles Symphony Orchestra. Upon
the advice of Rothwell, the Rachlin
family left for Europe so that Ezra
might study there. Before leaving
the city, the young pianist gave
farewell recital in Los Angeles, his
first complete performance in pub ic,
which was great success.
Arriving in Berlin, the youthful stu
dents work progressed with astound-
ing rapidity under the noted peda-
gogue Professor Mayer-Mahr.
After Ezra Rachlin's debut recital
in the German capital critics hailed
the California prodigy as little
Paderewski" and little Mozart"
Offers came for comprehensive con-
cert tours and moving picture engage
ments, but it was decided that he
should not make too many pub ic APP
pearances but should be given time
tc mature and become a well-round-
ed artist. Accordingly, only limit
ed tour was accepted and a return
engagement in Berlin.
All this took place before Ezra's
twelfth birthday. At that time his
family returned to America, and the
TO lowing autumn he gave his first
recital in New York at Carnegie Hall
scoring a sensational success. This
was followed by IN equally success
full recital in Chicago in January of
the acme season and then an appear
ance as soloist Win the Mann tan
Symphony Orchestra under the late
Henry Hadley in New York.
Although he had once more en-
countered so much acclaim the boys
wise parents and musical advisors
felt that he should continue his seri-
Gus study. He entered the Curtis In
stitute of Music in Philadelphia,
where he studied for several years.
Rachlin made brilliant record, ma
joring in three subjects piano, COM
position and conducting-an acade
mic feat accomplished only once be-
fore in the history of the school.
During this time Leopold Stok-
owski, conductor of the Philadelphia
Orchestra, inaugurated new series
of concerts called youth Concerts"
Ezra Rachlin was chosen from six
thousand contestants to play the
List A Major Concerto with this IA
nous orchestra and conductor.
After this he played the Rachman-
inoff Third Concerto in New York
with the Cleveland Orchestra under
Nikolai Sokoloff and again achieved
astounding, success.
With his second New York recital

Ezra Rachlin In Piano
Concert February 1St

Ezra Rachlin, whom a European
critic recently called "the Heifetz of
the piano." and who is considered by
many as the most brilliant of Anne
ricas younger keyboard artists, will
play in high school auditorium on
Wednesday, February first, at $50
o'clock under the auspices of the
Henderson Cooperative Concert AS
ISOLATION
Ezra Rach-in is known on both
sides of the Atlantic. In his own
country he played with the Philadel-
phia and Cleveland Orchestras in adj
dition to several New York recitals
and numerous recital appearances in
other cities. Although he is still in
his early Juveniles, Rach.in has the
artistic maturity that comes only
from years of public appearances
combined with serious study. A for
mer child prodigy, his talents have
reached the ripeness that too few of
such precocious gifts attain.
Rachlin was born in Los Angeles.
His love of music showed itself at
the early age of three. His mother
who was pianist of note, was teach
ing good deal at this time. Little
Ezra would crawi under the piano
to listen to the music, as he was

This surprise party in her honor
was very delightful one, thirty of
her women friends gathering in
neighborly fashion to bid her god
speed into her new home, the whole
expressing in many gracious words
and gifts their sincere appreciation
of her work and worth during her
life among them. One member of
the group, to make her realize she
was the guest of honor, pinned on
her shoulder a beautiful corsage,
Saying it with flowers" as she made
a graceful speech of presentation, ex-
pressing the sentiment of the group
as she said: these carnation will
soon wither but the fragrance of your

In the spirited game of Bingo, the
