DETROIT'S FINEST
CORNER 2-FLAT

Wagner Program.

The annual tribute to Richard
‘Vagner marked Thursday eve-
! nine's program. Mr. Gabrilit-
witsch had prepared a skillfully ar-
ranged program which ranged all
the soy from the "March of Hom-
age and the "Tristan"
The soloist of the evening was
Mine. Elsa Also], dramatic so
I prow of the Chicago Civic Opera
• Company. Her offerings included
"Elsa's
Dream"
and
Senta's
:"Traft the dos Schiff."
'
Altogether it was an evening
such tlA only Wagner C.1.1111 pro-
vide.
The orchestra, under the baton
' of !Ile. Gabribiwitsch, was equally
effective in the long, strident pas-
sages of the March as in the most
tender music of the Siegfried
Idyl.
Mme. Alsen proved herself an
alnnInlIlliallinl singer of generous
gifts. It was in the "Love-death"
that she was at her best. Swept
along with the majestic sweep of
the music, the singer rose to her
full powers.
The audience loved Mme. Alsen
and gave her tumultuous applause.
It stayed on after the program, in
the hope of getting an encore. But
Mine. Alsen had already been very
generous ; an pt king further by
Wagner would have been an anti-
climax, and anything by another
composer sacrilege.

Symphony Orchestra.

Victor Kolar, associate conduc-
tor of the Detroit Symphony Or-
chestra, presents "two first per-
formances in Detroit" at Sunday's
popular concert in Orchestra Hall,
Altsehuler's "A Soldier Song'
and the Moussorgski Suite, "Pic-
tures From An Exposition." Mod-
est Altschuler is well known in the
East as organizer and conductor
of the Russian Symphony Orches-
tra. His "Soldier Song" is a
•short, joyous song for orchestra;
the Moussorgsky suite, "Pistures
From An Exposition," is a decid-
ed novelty, program music of a
most ultra type, and will merit the
careful reading that Mr. Kolar
will give it. The soloist for the
afternoon will be William Grafing
King. Ile has chosen the Andante
and Finale from Concerto in E

EDGEWOOD 5620 or HEMLOCK 10381.

One of the little-known activities
of the public library is its service
to those in the community who, by
choice or necessity, read other lan-
guages than English. For several
years this work has been quietly
developing, and now there are 20,-
000 books in 20 languages, with a
circulation of over 100,000 a year.
One of the important branches of
this service is among the Jewish
people, who, last year. read 10,800
books in Yiddish and Hebrew from
the public library. Until recently
the collections in Hebrew and Yid-
dish were centered in the Ginsberg
Branch, on Brewster street, near
Hastings, with a supplementary
!collection in the Jewish Welfare
Center. However in the unprece-
dentedly rapid flow of the Jewish
population toward the north and
west, Ginsberg Branch was left
stranded among a population with
completely different tastes and
small desire for hooks, and the
building was turned over to the
8800 Recreation Commission. The Wel-
fare Center also moved front place
to place and the library was moved
with it. All this changing of lo-
cation and clientele made the prob-
lem of the library difficult, but it
was at last decided to concentrate
the two collections in one place and
to reconstruct the work with a view
to the best service possible at the
present moment. Utley Branch
was decided upon as the most con-
veniently located of the library
agencies, being in the center of the
stream of the moving population
and very accessible from two street
car lines. Accordingly, the two col-
lections of Hebrew and Yiddish
books have been pooled and placed
there, with a Jewish assistant in
charge. It is now planned to in-
crease. and enrich the collections
, front year to year, according to the
demand as indicated by the circu-
j lotion.
A room has been set aside at Ut-
ley Branch for this exclusive use.
It is large and light and pleasant
and there is ample room for
growth. As the use of this room
increases, magazines and newspa-
pers will be placed there. Mean-
while, of course the whole of the
splendid collection in English of
I the Utley Branch is at the service
of these readers who desire to read
in English also.
It is open from 10 a. m. to if p.
III each week day.

mittee: Mrs. David nubile, chair-
man; Mrs. S. Schaffiander, Mrs. B.
Pearlman, Mrs. II. Kopek Mrs. B.
Stepsay, Mrs. E. Stein, Mrs. J.
