Ehwa. | the best indication
that Atlanta is breaking
away from the idea that a
week of opera is sufficient nour
ishment for a music-hungry city
is found in the announcement to
day by the Music Study Club
that five fine artists of the con
cert platform are to be brought
here this season, provided lovers
of good music offer sufficient sup
port.
Leo Ornstein, the young Rus
sian planist and composer, is to
be presented as the first of the
series, Mr. Ornstein has been
probably the most widely dis
cussed pianist of the last few
years, because of his novel, not
to say extreme, forms of musical
fnterpretation. He has been de
scribed as the ‘“futurist” of
music. The critice have praised
and denounced him. Some of
them have ridiculed him; but all
of them have gone to hear him
again and again. Atlantans
probably will be more interested
in Ornstein the pianist than Orn
stein the composer, and there is
no difference of opiniop as to his
remarkable ability. His tech
nigue has been described as truly
marvelous,
The Flonzaley Quartet, per
haps the greatest exponent of
chamber music known to Amer
ica, also is on the list, and the
comparatively few Atlantans who
heard these masters of violin,
viola and ‘cello last season at
Cable Hall will receive this news
with genuine soy. I remember a
prominent Atlantan, dra.sfied to
that concert against his will, who
left the hall in a semi-trance.
“I never dreamed music could
be like that,” he said. “I won
der If they play tomorrow night
within a hundred miles of At
jania, 1 would iravei that far to
hear them nggin."
Clara and David Mannes, whose
piano and vyiolin sonata recitals
are considered among the most
important chamber music events
in New York; John Barnes
Wells, a young American tenor,
who has won considerable fame;
Mme. David, the harpist, who ap
pears with Mr. Wells, and Ethe!
Leginska, a pianiste of wide rep
uation, complete the list of five
numbers proposed by the club.
The Music Study Club has very
wisely decided against backing
the series of recitals by a guar
antee fund, which would place
the burden of possible losses
upon a few Atlantans who al
ready are called upon for too
many subscriptions. It pur
roses to lay before Atlanta music
overs the opportunity to hear
these artistes, but it expects the
Fubllc to pay its way. Tickets
or the series will be offered for
sale, and no contracts with the
musicians will ibe signed until
these advance sales guarantee a
financial success. Mrs. Armond
Carroll, president of the club,
will be glad to offer any desired
information as to tickets and
proposed dates.

the outlook for a season of music
was more brilliant than in sev
eral years, and noted the pro
spective appearances of John
McCormack, the Serge Diaghi
leff Ballet Russe and the Boston-
National Opera Company. To
this list must be added the pro
posed season mentioned above
and the recital next Thursday
evening of Maud Powell, who
shares with Albert Spalding the
first honors among American vio
linists. She ig perhaps the great
est of all woman artists of the
bow. Miss Powell is to appear
at the Auditorium as the first
number of the Alkahest Lyceum
course.
The course arranged by Mr.
Bridges this season includes sev
eral other musical numbers wor
thy of attention, notably a re
cital by Willlajn Wade Hinshaw,
the basso who sang for a time
with the Metropolitan, and
Christine Miller, a contralto
whose is familiar through the
medium of phonographs. In a
llther vein, “The Chimes of
Normandy,” fayvorite light opera
of decades ago, is to be present
ed by a small and therefore prob
ably artistic coterie of singers.
Miss Powell will be the first
violinist of the first rank to be
heard in Atlanta in years. The
subscription sales to the Alka
kest course guarantee her a large
audience and probably hundreds
who care little for the course as
a whole will make it a point to
hear her,

The Music Study Club an
nounces the first of its season of
given Wednesday morning in the
fortnightly open programs, to be
hall of the Phillips & Crew
Building, in North Pryor street.

composition. Joseph McClain,
head of the music department of
Agnes Scott College, will be

ing and deliver a brief address
on Beethoven the man. Miss
van Gelder, the Dutch soprano,
who recently joined the tmcul.tf

“Adelalde.”” Miss Frances Sto

The first faculty recital of the
season by the Southern Univer
sity of Music was given Thursday
evening in the concert hall in the
Alfriend Building. Members of
the faculty taking part were Kurt
Mueller and Miss Dorothy Scott,
plano; Mrs. Grace lee Brown-
Townsend, soprano; W. W. Lef
fingwell, violin; Alfred Pauli,
violoncello; Miss Sarah Adelle
Eastlack, reader.
The opening number was the
HEARST'S SUNDAY AMERICAN, ATLANTA, GA, SUNDAY, OCTORER 1. 1916,
Romance and Valse from Aren
sky’s Suite, Op. 15, for two gl:..—t
nos. Miss Scott was at her
in this. Mr. Mueller, at the sec
ond piano, added new laurels to
his reputation.
For his solo numbers, Mr, Muel
ler chose a composition by Brad
ford Campbell, a resident of At
lanta and a member of the fac
ulty. “Chanson @’Amour” is an
exquisite little gem, based on a
plaintive, appealing theme. There
are bhig, crashing chords and
splendidly achieved climaxes in
this composition, but always they
Tresolve themselves into the haunt
ingly sweet little melody of the
beginning. Mr. Mueller's second
number was the Chopin “Scher
zo"” in E-major.
Mrs. Townsend’s numbers were
well chosen, and showed to excel
lent advantage the quality of her
voice,
Mr. Leffingwell’'s solo number
was the big and difficult “Pabio
de Sarasate.” Miss Eastlack gave
two numbers, a scene from “Mac
beth” and a little sketch of her
own,
The closing number was Aren
sky's Trio, op. 32, for plane, vio
lin and violoncello, played by Mr.
Mueller, Mr. Lefiingwell and Mr.
Pauli.
The next faculty recital will be
glven on Wednesday evening, in

2 A will announce in these columns the Grand
W 2 Opening of my newest place at SIXTY
PEACH'IPREé STREET. And it willbe a Grand
Opening, believe me! For when you have seen with
your own eyes the transformation wrought by con
tractors and carpenters and decorators | know you'll
be delightfully surprised.
To say that it will be the finest place of its kind
in the South is putting it too mildly. There will be
features for ladies and gentlemen that will make Sixty
Peachtree different and better than any place of its
kind in the whole country.
I'm going to tell you more about the wonders of
these three entire floors of my newest place a bit
later. T'll tell you about such things as expensive
cork tiled floors, of sound-proof Bowling Alieys on
the top floor, of a beautiful Soda Fount evolved from
an artist’s untrammeled mind. Of an elevator run
by a courteous boy in brass buttons and a little round
cap.
Pll tell you about dainty, delicious Lunches
prepared by high-priced chefs who take pride in their
art. Of white enameled steel Billiard "Fables where
gentlemen may play as in their own clubs. Of
ladies’ nights for bowling. And other features,

BUT THAT IS NOT THE PURPOSE of this
advertisement. Right now I'm looking for a man!
A certain type of man. Perhaps you are the man
I want. Or perhaps you know the man | want.
Let me tell you what I want him for.
My success is built on QUALITY AND
SERVICE. [l've given my personal attention to
these two factors and made them really and truly a
part of my business. I realize that the finest sur
roundings count for nothing if these two important
essentials are missing. | want you to receive real
QUALITY AND SERVICE at my new place
and I'd like to be there personally to see that you do.
But my business has grown to such an extent that |
can not leave Chattanooga. That's why | want a
man to represent me at 60 Peachtree.
This man should be aquainted in Georgia from Rabun Gap to
Tybee Light. He should have an attractive personality. He should
be a splendid handshaker—in fact, a “greeter” of our friends and
customers. | want him to find out if the Lunches and Drinks are to
my customers liking and satisfaction. He must see that they get
those two very necessary things I'm a crank about, QUALITY
AND SERVICE.
\ I'd like him to have a bit of the “country” about him: for, after
\ all, a man to be friendly and a good handshaker must have a touch
L‘pf the “country™ about him. Do you understand what | mean?
Success will find its way to
your- - door only after you
have blazed the trail. Let
