Life's By-Paths Hold Many Pleasures Lost To Those Who Travel Crowded Highways

ways are damned, just as they al- ways are when MT. and Mrs. America and the kids have Q holi- day to spend going from here to there.
 But the surprising thing is that the average motorist slows down voluntarily when he finds himself on any unfamiliar road.
 Getting of the beaten track could be fun for a great many Americans if they were ever will- ing to leave the "main highway" of their lives and see what some of the lesser -traveled roads" have to offer. Some of them offer better scenery than billboards and hot dog stands.
 ROAD TO
 ADVENTURE
 For instance it might surprise Mrs. Jones to find that she would actually enjoy turning of the social road all her friends are travelling the road of the young matron with its bridge, Its culture clubs, and its eternal struggle to acquire better china, thicker rugs, and smarter color schemes and find out what really affords her happiness as an individual.
 And 1t might surprise MT. Jones to get off the york; and nothing- else road travelled by SO many am- bilious men, and find out just how much there is outside job to enjoy, if Q man Is smart enough to get his work finished in a work ing day and turn to something else to broaden his interests.
 There's 0 main -traveled highway for every classification of men and women, on which the majority of persons in that class travel. But there are more interesting byways that have more to offer in the way of enjoyment, without too much loss in speed, if a person will only try them.

While the characteristics of the
composers style show a kinship with
the symphony. the concerto has
little OF the outspokenness of the
former More compact and more
melancholy in tone. it is also less
turbulent in its expression. The
many brilliant passages for the pi-
ano gave Mr.. Rachmaninoff occa-
sion to dazzle with her superb tech
nique and in the nostalgia melodies
to display another side of his art.
The Intervening of orchestra and

a ll-maintained balance between
the two. The mastery performance
by the composer received a storm of

Columbia Heights Unit
Points to Need Created
By Defense Emergency .

The Federal Government last
night was urged by the Citizens
Forum of Columbia Heights to as
sumo financial responsibility for in
creased demands on the local water
supply due to the emergency ex-
pansion of Government agencies and
the consequent influx OF defense
workers.
A resolution offered by Spared A.
Wood, president! recommended that
the Federal Government be required
to pay only for the additional water
needed by the District. DR.. Alba NJ.
Edwards proposed that the resolu-
tion be amended to provide for a
Federal payment proportional to its
share of total water consumption in
the District. which was estimated
at Is per cent
w. W. Coulliette pointed out. how
ever. that the proposed rate in
crease is largely the product of new
capital expenditures for additional
equipment OF an emergency nature.
To share this burden with the Fed
eral Government, he argued, would
be unfair to the District.
DR.. Edwards thereupon withdrew
his amendment, and Mr.. Woods
resolution passed without opposition
as originally written.
Plans were made by the group for
participation in civilian defense

ductor's intention was understood.
Even the cellists stood to play, the
first time they have shared the
traditional attitude. A slight change
in the seating of the orchestra was
adopted for this concert, the violas
being placed next to the cellos. with
the woodwinds in the center.
Whether this will be a permanent
arrangement when Mr.. Ormandy
conducts remains to be seen, for, as
yet, he has not indorsed. by exam
pie. the revolutionary seating Mr..
Stokowski prefers. For the first
time since he has been coming here
Mr.. Ormandy had to rap for the
audiences attention before each of
the movements of the symphony.
Waiting patiently a few minutes for
the talking and the rustling to die
down, he finally had to tap a cellists
stand with his baton. Surely, by
this time, the Constitution Hall
patrons know the etiquette OF SYM

ovation broke out at its conclusion
that the popular conductor came out
repeatedly to bow to the unabating
applause. And as usual. Mr.. Or
mandy refused to take the credit
alone. but called the orchestra mu-
sicians each time TO stand before he
turned in acknowledgement.
Mr.. Ormandy has plenty of dra-
matte material in the symphony and
constantly changing themes with
which to exercise his artistry. Tile
work is extraordinary in many re-
spects, the most prominent of which
is the revelation OF a continually
viril drive that at no time slackens
for an introspective mood. 1t is
again unique in the sudden cessation
of melody to be followed without
warning by another outburst of
sound and in the massivenesS of
orchestral volume. Only for the
briefest moments is there any
melody sustained by one section of
the orchestra with the remainder
filling in the background, and always
preference is given the woodwindS
over the violins. For the most part

upon which financing agreement re-

of South Capitol street and Firth
