Gifts of Lasting Elegance and Worth
Attractively Priced for the
Holiday Trade

W

E have devoted a large part of our second
floor to a gift shop, where you will find
various suitable odd pieces of fine furniture,
specially marked for the holiday season.
Among these are illustrated the three wonder
values shown above.
The comfortable arm chair, finished in ma-
hogany and upholstered in a very tine quality of
Persian blue denim, is marked the very low price
of $39. The wrought-iron lamp, complete with
parchment shade and decorated in an unusual style
of metalic relief work, is specially priced at $22.
A beautiful hand-hammered wrought-iron ash tray
has been marked down to $12 for this sale.

We also suggest you ask our representative to
show you our complete line of dining room and
bedroom suites, ranging in price from $188 to
$3500.

plained to you the manner in which this beautiful

Sunday's Popular Concert.

Sunday's popular concert brings as
a soloist one of the finest artists that
this country has produced, Madame
Inez Barbour, a lyric soprano. In
private life Madame Barbour is the
wife of Henry Hadley, who is well
known as one of the foremost Amer-
ican composers and conductors. Ma-
dame Barbour has had a most disin-
guished career in Europe and this
country and the management of the
Detroit Symphony Orchestra holds it-
self most fortunate in having secured
her for this concert. Madame Bar-
bour appears on the program twice.
The first will be the big aria from
Weber's opera, "Der Freischutz,"
the aria on which the famous over-
ture to the opera is built and one of
the great tests of the skill and art
of a soprano. For her second num-
ber she will sing an exquisite air
from the cantata "La Tasse," by the
French composer Benjamin Godard.
This has been re arrangedand re-
orchestrated for Madame Barbour by
Mr. Hadley.
Owing to the fact that next Sun-
day is the day before Christmas and
the Symphony Orchestra does not re-
turn from its western tour until late
Saturday evening, there will be no
popular concert on Sunday afternoon,
Dec. 24. This will be the only break
in the series.

offered two groups, five numbers in

The two soloists, Carl Lingegrin,
bass-baritone, and William Kerr, ac-

added much to the enjoyment of the
afternoon. Mr. Kolar offered as the
orchestral part of the program the
overture "Fingal's Cave," by Men-

tone-poem, "Les Preludes." As usual,
Kolar's readings made a most favor-

after the conclusion of "Les Pre-
