Frohman's 'Sabbath Eve Service'
Acclaimed as Great Composition

A "Sabbath Eve Service," in
four divisions,
composed by
_
Dan Frohman,
•prominent De-.
troit musician,
is attracting
nationwide at-
tention and
will soon be
presented in
temples and
synagogues in
Detroit and
_
throughout
- Frohman
the country.
The premier presentation of
this service was at the home of
Mrs. Morris L. Schaver last
month.
Composed for cantor, choir
and organ, the .Frohman service
was given at the Schaver home
in Southfield by Cantors Jacob
H. Sonenklar, Simon Bermanis
and Louis Klein and Frohman
himself, with Mrs. Frohman at
the piano.
Enhancing the performance
and marked by praise for the
somposition was the commen-
..tary by Jason Ticktion.
The gathering at Mrs. Scha-
ver's home, which included
many local leaders, rabbis, can-
tors and other musicians, im-
mediately was placed in an in-
spired mood with the presenta-
tion of the first portion of the
service which included the "Ma
Tovu," "L'cho Dodi" and "Ado-
noi Moloch" selections.
The second portion is consid-
erably longer—the selections in
this group being "Borchu,"
"Ahavas Olom," "Shmay Yis-
roel," "Mi Komocho" and "Hash-
kiveinu."
"Hashkiveinu" immediately
won the audience's acclaim as
an outstanding selection. It
heightened the spirit of the
evening.
Another especially meritorius
piece, "V'shomru," opened the
third portion of the "Sabbath
Eve Service," which also in-
cludes the "Kaddish" and the
"Kiddush," all excellently per-
formed by soloists in the choir
and by the cantor.
The finale in this composition
is the Torah Service. It includes
these selections: "Ein Komo-
cho," "Eitz Chayim," "The Lord
Is My Light," "On That Day"
and "Yismechu." -

It is of "Yismechu" that the ,
critics now speak as being one
of Frohman's most impressive
creations. Local cantors - said
they would adopt it in their
services,• and many_ said they
would purchase the published
work for wide distribution.
In addition to local temples
that have indicated an interest
in the services, synagogues in
the following cities are plan-
ning to perform the Frohman
composition,' either as Friday
night services or as specially-
arranged concerts: Cleveland,
Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Chicago,
Toronto, Montreal, Los Angeles,
Newark, and other communities.

Solomon Carvalho —.pathfinder in the far west

Today, when Man stands poised on the
rim of space, it's hard to visualize the
excitement that surrounded Colonel Fre-
mont's exploring venture in 1854. In the
Autumn of that year, Fremont, later to
be the first Republican presidential
nominee, started across the Rocky Moun-
tains. His second-in-command was Solo-
mon Nunes Carvalho.
Solomon N. Carvalho was a successful
artist when Fremont asked him to join
the exploring party. In accepting,
Carvalho, a close friend of Fremont's,
became the first artist ever appointed to
such an expedition as well as the first
man ever to photograph the Far West.
Five months went by without any
word from the expedition. Finally a
letter from Carvalho informed the anx-
ious world that, after incredible hard-
ships, the Fremont expedition had
arrived in Utah. One member of the

An •eye specialist and a den-

"Your Child's Health — the
Eyes and Teeth" and their im-
portance to school-age children
will be the topic of Dr. Charles
Levi,' opthamologist, and Dr.
Benjamin Magier, D. D. S. Their
presentation will include slides
-and movies, according to Mrs.

PTA.

In his book, "Incident and Travel in
the Far West," Carvalho gives the only
eyewitness account of the terrible .jour-
ney. Once, only Carvalho's skill with the
six gun saved the party from annihila-
tion by a band of hostile Indians. Setting
up a target, Carvalho coolly placed six
consecutive shots in the bull's-eye.
Carvalho's indomitable will and devo-
tion to duty are revealed in this passage
from his book : "The great secret ... of
my untiring perseverance and continued
success was that my honor was pledged
to Col. Fremont to perform certain
duties, and I would rather have died than -

not to have redeemed it."
Solomon Carvalho redeemed his pledge

all right in the snowy wilderness of the
Rocky Mountains. But, perhaps more
important, his collaboration with Fre-
mont was a significant factor in stimu-
lating the westward wave of immigra-
tion that developed the Far Wpst.
