William Kapell, the 21-year-old

miere to a piano concerto by the
Soviet-Armenian composer, Aram

Record Reviews
By Elena de Sayn.

Rachmaninoff's fourth and last
Concerto in G Minor, Opus 4o,'
played by the composer and re-
corded by the Victor company as q
tribute to the late pianist, should
find Its reward in the response from
the late masters many admirers
His facile technique, untouched by
his advanced years and his singing
touch are ever present.
This album represents the COM
posers revised edition of the oripi-
nal. which was completed in 1926
and heard publicly in America a
year later. In spite of the revision,
the f1rst movement is the least in
teresting OF the three, its martial
theme sounding heavy and some
what labored. To make up for it.
however, the "Adagio" is unusually
lovely, tinged with nostalgy. The
Allegro Vivace" of the third move
ment is the very essence of CAV and
reckless abandon.
Two 12-inch and three lO-inch
discs on review (Victor) bring to
notice Beethoven's Duet in E Flat

Lily pools are not as widely used
as many believe desirable. Water
adds to the interest of the garden,
the flowers are most colorful, and
fish swimming in the water are al
ways fascinating Pools may be
large and ornate or small and
simple. depending upon the size Of
the yard, the ambitions Of the gar
dener and upon the amount OF
money to be invested.
Whatever the size or type Of pool
to be built, it should be carefully
constructed, for upon that care
hinges much Of the satisfaction and
enjoyment that Is to come from it.
Careless or skimpy construction
leads to leaks, breakage and poor
results generally.
Most pools should be built OF re-
inforced concrete; it is cheap in
surance against breakage. The
concrete should be to inches
thick. depending upon the size. The
materials used should be clean, well
mixed and thoroughly worked so as
to make watertight solid surface.
A provision for drainage is not alb
solutely necessary but is very de-
sirable, since most pools are cleaned
each spring. Dipping the water out
Is . laborious task and . good
drain makes the work much caster.
Waterprcofing to prevent leaks
may be done by several methods, al
though most builders find coating
the surface two or three times
with neat" cement wash Is SUI
flcient.
The pool should be at least two
feet deep where the lilies are to be
placed. The boxes in which they
are planted are usually 10 inches
square and IL inches deep. There
should be from 6 to IL inches of
water over the crowns of the plants.
Allow a space feet square for each
plant and do not overplant the
pool, since some water should show
at all times between the plants.
If plants other than water lilies
are to be grown either in the pool
or near the edge, provision should
be made for them at the time of
construction. This may consist of q
shelf for pots or a shallow compart-
ment filled with soil in which they
may grow.
After the pool has been COM
pleted it should be filled with water
and allowed to stand for a week or
more, drained and refilled. This
draining and filling is to draw the
lime from the surface-it is injuri-
Gus to fish and to the plants.
Water lilies do not thrive in shade
and if the pool is in the shade other
types of plants should be used
Water hyacinths, -get-me -nots,
etc, may be used in place Of lilies.
Hardy water lilies may be left in
the pool over winter, but tropical
lilies should be lifted and stored in
moist sand in the basement. Pools
do not need to be emptied for the
winter if properly constructed.
Most gardeners simply protect them
from falling leaves by covering with
wire screen, and then, before the
water freezes, they place a pole or
two In the water to relieve the pres
sure Of ice on the walls.
Goldfish and snails are impor-
tant accessories to q pool as they
help to control mosquitoes and to
keep the water clean. Water plants
are also needed to supply air to
the water.
Surplus seeds from this years
planting may be stored over winter
