Schkolnik and King Play Bach Concerto. HE second guest cc nductor to appear with the Detroit Orchestra since Mr. Gabrilowitsch's arrival in Detroit was Henri Verbrugghen, the eminent Belgian conductor, now living in Australia. From the very outset of the program Mr.' Verbrugghen established himself as a virile and accomplished conductor. Although he had arrived but two days before the concert and had been given small chance for rehearsals, the Belgian's reading of Brahms Second Symphony was one of the finest. The audience seemed to be whole-hearted in their ad- miration of his excellent reading, and he was accorded a genu- ine ovation. His conducting of the Beethoven overture "Corio- lans" was likewise of high order. The soloists of the after- noon were Illya Schkolnik and William Grating King, who played the Bach Concerto for two violins and string orchestra, T in D Minor. So much has already ♦ been said this season, as well as in the past, of these two excellent artists about all that remains to be said is that their performance was one of Monthly Meeting: real delight to those who heard it.

Such a tendency is certainly wrong. The vo- cational training of children and adults, the administration of labor exchanges, the training of instructors for the vocational schools and vari- ous co-operative societies, the organ- ization of the local credit institutions, the support of the agricultural farms, require so much experience that only organizations which have grown in the district and have long-standing traditions, such as the Ort, can pro- vide the proper human material for carrying out the work on the right lines. ..
