MORRIS The many local friends of Miss Helen I lenschel Morris will be delighted to learn of the splendid recognition ac- corded her in musical circles in New York, where she has been studying the past five years as a pupil of Leopold Go- dowsky and Mme. Lichtman. She re- cently gave a private recital before an audience of musical critics and students and received a most encouraging ovation for her remarkable rendition of a se- lection of most difficult compositions. "Musical America" and "Musical Cour- ier," two of the most prominent musi- cal journals in America, unite in praise of her performance and said by way of comment: "The performance of Miss Morris was that of an intelligent and conscientious young artist. She has ex- cellent technique, a style and phrasing that show musicianship and intelligence, and her tone is one of brilliancy and proper shading. Miss Morris should be heard from more frequently in the near future." Miss Morris is the (laughter of Mr. and Mrs. B. G. Morris of Pilgrim Ave. She is very well known in Detroit among the younger set, having graduated from the Detroit Central High School a few years ago. It was her intention to continue her musical study in Europe after leaving Detroit, but the outbreak of the war prevented the trip. The talented young pianist may soon visit her 'home and give a recital in this city. YOUNG JEWISH GIRL EM- BARKS ON BUSINESS CAREER. It has been a fact for many years in Jewish homes, that the girls have been, given splendid literary educa- tions, and are well taught in all mat- ters of domesticity, not . to overlook the culinary abilities, but very little thought has been given the commer- cial aptness of Jewish women; yet San Francisco.—Woodrow Wilson Sperling is perhaps the only San Francisco boy to receive the personal well wishes of President Wilson. He is a mouth old, and is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Sperling. Mr. Sperling is a past grand president of District Grand Lodge No. 4, Inde- pendent Order B'nai B'rith, and a well known communal worker. Soon after the baby's birth, his proud parents sent a telegram to the White House advising President Wil- son that the boy had been named for him. In reply, the parents have re- ceived this message: "Mr. Frank Sperling. "My Dear Sir: "The president asks me to thank you and Mrs. Sperling for your tele- gram and for your generous expres- sions of approbation. He deeply ap- preciates the compliment which you have paid him in the naming of your baby and he hopes that the little man will be richly blessed with health and happiness. "Sincerely yours, "J. P. TUMULTY, "Secretary to the President." let it be known this has not prevent- ed the progress along these lines of some who have found their own voca- tions, and are successful in hteir un- dertakings. Among our enterprising young women, permit us to mention Miss Layetta Robinson and Mrs. Floyd Rindstaff, who have presented to the public a most alluring blouse shop on the third floor of the Peter Smith building. No efforts have been spared to give a valued selection of fashion- able creations, and their charming per- sonalities are helpmates in their achievement. The Jewish community in Berlin has received a legacy of 1,300,000 marks from the late Frau Julie Gerson for the establishment and erection of a chil- dren's hospital.
