composer at the piano, which
sonatas I later performed
throughout Europe and the
United States.
Fabulous Albert Hall
During the four years Of
my stay in England I gave a
great number Of concerts in
Great Britain, Scotland and
Ireland.
Among these was a per-
Torrance in the largest Bri-
tish,~ Concert Hall, Albert
Hall in London, with a seat
ing capacity of 5000. .-
This was a celebrity con-
cert" at which I was accom-
panied by the well known
English h pianist Katherine
Goodson in Beethoven's Kre-
utzer Sonata. I later appeared
with the London Symphony
Orchestra under the baton of
the great English conductor,
Sir Henry Wood, playing the
Beethoven, B a h ms an d
Tchaikovsky concertos.
First Stradivarius 'a
I came into possession of
my first Stradivarius in an
unusual way in London.
During a musical soiree in
the house Of a friend, a lady
brought in a violin case and
laid it on the piano. In the
course of the evening she
asked me whether I would
play something on her violin.
As soon as 1 heard it's
tone 1 knew that it was an
unusual instrument and
learning from tho owner
that no one used this Won
derful instrument 1 asked
whether / could sometimes
pIay it, to which she re-
Piled: Keep it as long as
you please"
I then learned that thi
Stradivarius was known Al
the ''Sylvester' (all famous
violins having their ow'1
names) and in a short time
bought the instrument ano
used it during my first years
concerts in the United States
~ America.

beauty of it's workmanship,
but also for it's uniquely love-
ly and powerful tone.
A Musical Reservoir
I remember with especial
warmth my long friendship
with Prof. R. w. Seton-Wat-
son, whom I last visited at
Oxford.
He was one of the Slavs'
best friends, a man Of great
soul, heart, character, and tre-
mendous knowledge. I also
very fondly remember Sir
Robert and Lady Mayer, who
have done more than perhaps
anyone else for the musical
life of Great Britain.
The symphony concerts
for young people which
they organized all over the
country have created a
huge reservoir of future
music lovers and audiences
in England.
Their oldest son has an un-
usual talent for Slavonic Ian
guages. He especially loves
and respects the people of
Yugoslavia and has so well
mastered the Serbo- -Croatian
language that it is hard to
believe he learned it - as we'll
as Czech - since the end of
World War IL.
Married May IL, 1926
~ In January of 1924, at the
invitation of an American
manager, I went to the Uni
ted States.
| Immediately upon my arri-
val I began a series of 16 con-
certs in four weeks in New
York's National Theatre. The
very. flattering reviews ena-
bled me to organize my first
trans-continental tour which
took me through most of the
important cities and as far as
Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco on the Pacific Coast.
In New York I was for
tunate enough to meet
Joyce Borden, a girl with
rare spiritual, intellectual,
and humane qualities, with
whom / have lived in an un-
usually happy and harmo-
NOUS marriage since May
IL, 1926.
AS has been my custom af-
ter every important event in
my life, I again visited my
homeland, this time with my
new wife.
Upon our arrival in Zagreb,
we were met at the station

zens, including school children
who almost smothered us in
flowers. -.
And so my wife had her
first opportunity to become
acquainted with my native Za-
greb and with the Croatian
and other Yugoslav people
whom she learned to love, re-
spect and appreciate, as was
proved during World War II
by her tireless work in organ
izing the American Committee
for Yugoslav Relief.

HE DID IT AGAIN
by Mrs. Pearl L. Byrd Larsen

Reverend Jens Larsen, for
mer Pastor Of the Frederik-
sted and Christiansted Luth-
eran Churches, St. Croix, who
also spent several years doing
missionary work in Africa,
has written his second novel
based on life in the jungles of
Africa.
Those who were privileged
to read "Ten Thousand Tom
Toms" Reverend Larsen's first
novel, got a glimpse into the
Jungle that no one could pos
sibly have gotten without hav-
ing had the actual experience
CT living there, hearing and
Interpreting the sounds Of the
tom toms, learning the Gus
toms of the natives, knowing
and feeling the hardships OF
the jungle, the influence OF
the witch doctors, and the
training given African boys as
the highest form Of education
for their future life.
a novel which
portrays not only the jungles
Of Africa, the villages made OF
mud huts, the customs Of the
natives, their hardships, their
ability to work with the crude
things at hand, has woven
through it a beautiful love
story Of Evelyn Stewart, q
wealthy New York socialite.
and DR.. Harry Noland, 9
medical missionary.
, 1958-05-08

Evelyn, who had been mad
" in love and engaged to Carl,
found herself in a state of
shock while fitting her we'd
ding gown when a telegram
from Carl stated that he had
married his former fancee, Of
Chicago. His only reason given
was a change Of heart.
Following the ordeal of can
ceiling the wedding, returning
wedding presents and all the
details of the social shock,
Evelyn's parents took her on
{ trip to Africa hoping to
soften the blow.
While on her visit to Africa,
Evelyn volunteered to work in
the hospital located on a rub
Der plantation owned by a
company Of which her father
was president.
Bob Watson, a soeialite of
Evelyn's own standing and the
son Of one of the directors of
the company, met the Stewards
on their arrival in Africa and
drove them to the plantation.
Bob's interest in Evelyn de-
veloped at once but she did not
respond.
DR.. Harry holland, who was
to substitute for the regular
plantation doctor, was expect
