AMERICAN ORT LAUNCHES
MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN
January has been chosen by the
executive committee of the American
Ort for its drive to enlist the mem-
bers throughout America. Many pre
liminary activities have been made in
the first month of 1927. The Aire
of the Ort, 31 Union Square, New
York, reports that the results ob-
tained so far are exceedingly encour-
aging and that the year 1927 will see
the Ort firmly established on a per-
manent basis, which it seeks in order
to maintain its reconstruction activi-
ties and institutions in Central and
Eastern Europe.
Appeals are being sent out urging
upon American Jews the necessity of
affiliation with the Ort.

1887—DETROIT'S FUR HEADQUARTERS FOR 40 YEARS-1927
The last concert of the present
year by the Detroit Symphony Or-
chestra offered a program whose
greatest merit was its brevity; the
performance started quite promptly
at 8:30 and by 10 o'clock the audi-
ence was on its homeward way. And
that with varying emotions and com-
ments. The latter were directed
chiefly against the program, while
opinions were divided on the merits
of the evening's soloist. 51endels-:
sohn's quite familiar overture to "Al
Midsummer Night's Dream" and Ros- I
sini's musical prolog to "William
Tell" do not often grace symphonic
programs in each other's company, .
and certainly are ill-suited to offset
the many weaknesses of Tschaikov-
sky's seldom played second symphony,

minor creation. The conductor was!

which was graciously invited to arise
and share in the public's applause.
Luella Melius, coloratura soprano,
was heard last season at the Masonic
with our orchestra, and
so the opportunity to hear her again
in the more intimate Orchestra Hall
was a wslcome one. She chose for
her numbers the celebrated "Queen '
of the Night" aria from Mozart's
"The Magic Flute" which, by the way,
she sang in a lower key, and then the

certain degree the style and manner
of the great Jenny Lind, again dis-
