In Splendid .,..,,1
Concert
Society
Clubs

La Verne Zavala. talented young
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. M. J..
Zayala of Ell Centre, proved that
she possesses definite artistic abil-
ity and a real future in music when
she was presented in a concert Fri
day night in the Barbara Worth
hotel by her teacher, Ruth Teeple
Reid.
Her opening number was the
Concerto in d Major" CHaydn-
ReinholdD, the first movement,
played with clarity and brilliance
and with the true Haydn flavor for
rollicking melody with accompani-
ment.
The "ToccaLa and Fugue IN d
Minor" written for the organ by
Bach and transcribed for the piano
by Taussig followed and was played
exceptionally well, La Verne bring
ing out the distinct difference be-
tween the two manuals on the Or
gan and giving in her playing the
effect of an organ.

paniments by Elizabeth Waterman
Trees" tRosbach) and Recession
al" (DeKoven), and was received
enthusiastically by the audience, the
soloist being brought back for an
encore.
La Verne's second group included
tho rhnfNit, &C oh g1b n1a uQH
in true concert style with marked
brilliance; the Ravina "Bolero"
which gave her ample opportunity
to display her decided feeling for
rhythm a modern number, the
charming Lavitsky Waltz; the
American folk song, Turkey in the
Straw" arr. by Guion, after which
she showed her versatility by re-
citing Stephen Vincent Benet's THE
Mountain Whippoorwll."
The program concluded with the
allegro maeStoSo movement of the
MacDoWeii Sonata Eroica" which
was very apparently the young per-
formers choice and allowed her
scope to demonstrate her true
artistry.
Beautiful bouquets and baskets of
flowers sent to La Verne by hei
many friends decorated the room
and the performer received many
floral gifts during the program.
Mrs. Zavala served punch to the
guests after the program. A large
and highly appreciative audience
was present for the concert.

Close Ties of Allies and Soviet
Vital for Success, Eliot Says

Only Limited Forces Can Be Risked

studied reluctance to give Americans
and British the detailed military and
economic information which is re-
quired for fully cooperative ef-
fort. (The military missions of the
Western powers in Russia have been
allowed to see almost nothing Of the
actual operations. All this has
caused a certain amount of friction
and resentment, but in sober truth
we may well ask ourselves what else
We were to expect.
The attitude of British and Amer

spirit of confidence given for con-

prevailed at Moscow that Americans
and Englishmen could not be trusted
to keep their mouths shut, there was
good reason for that, too.
One OF the most hopeful signs,
therefore. for Allied success in the
crucial year 1912 is the slowly
increasing development of mutual

Foreign Minister Molotov to London

forward steps in the right direction.
Main Military Object. ,t
Much of the present outcry for
"a second front" has arisen from
sources which were still harboring
suspicious that the Western powers
would let Russia down. without
realizing that in so doing they would
be letting themselves down.
1t is to be hoped that we are all
beginning to realize that the main
military object of our enemies in
Europe this year is to knock out
Russia, and our main military object
is to keep Russia going. This is the
essential task. and if it can be
accomplished we shall see the dawn
of final victory. To fail to accom-
plish it would be disastrous to us all.
Yet we must succeed by the best
use OF limited forces. The force
which Russia can apply in Europe
is limited by considerations OF sup
ply. The force which the United
States and Great Britain can en-
ploy in Europe is limited by consid-
erations of shipping. We cannot
afford to give away any further
margins of advantage.
We cannot afford, in particular,
