Fritz Kreisler appeared in concert In
New York recently for the first time
since his return from Europe, and the
attendance was so large that' many had
to be turned away.
Reviewing the concert. . Ruth Crosby
Dimmlck writes:
"Just what there is about Krelsler's
handling of the violin that makes him
different from other fiddlers Is not easy
of explanation. First of all, he puts
himself into his ' playing and knowing
the machinery of technique is there h
goes after the music. No descriptive
poems are necessary to enlighten his
listeners as to the meaning the music
is intended to convey ; Kreisler plays and
the soul sings Its own song and weaves
its own story, v
"He is, quite naturally, a little more
serious than in pre-war days, and noth
ing could induce him to smile during
the moments of mad applause. -
"The novelty of the program was a
typical Kreisler composition, musical
and imaginative which was played
without accompaniment. It was listed
as "Introduction and Scherzo-Caprice,
giving wide range for varying moods
and shades."

Pattern of Every Oriental Rug
Conceals Arabian Nights Tale
Or History of Bygone Evdnts
THE pattern of every Oriental ! rug
conceals an "Arabian Nights" tale.
Each Is a history, a story - of bygone
events and mysterious happenings, a
record of hopes and aspirations, a re
flection of fervent religious ceremonies,
a visualization of the weaver's under
standing of flowers, the crimson' sun
set, the bright blue sky and the wind
ing river. This fascinating symbolism
in this, the oldest of all the arts, was
Interpreted in a lecture given Tuesday
evening by Hovsep O. Cartozlan before
Everett Babcock's claaa in interior dec
oration. ,
The history of the Oriental rug, both
ancient and modern, its coloring, sig
nificance of design and manner of
weaving was told by Cartesian. Rugs
were first made for religious purposes
andthe uses of royalty, and later they
were adopted to the varied uses of the
common householder of the .Orient.
Rugs were first introduced in ' Eur ope
by ambassadors, ministers and other
diplomats, and the demand ' thus cre
ated socn took the rug weaving out
of - the home and in a sense commer
cialized , it, insofar as color and size
are- concerned. -However, th old meth
od of weaving still obtains.
Of all the rugs possessed by a na
tive, ' probably the prayer rug is the
most important, if ho be a Moham
medan. Five times daily the faithful
follower of Mohammed makes his ab
lutions by cleansing bis bands of what
he has done that is evil, his mouth of
what he has said, his eyes of what he
has seen, his ears of what he has heard
and his feet of where he has been, and
to this he adds the combing of his
beard. Then, placing h4 prayer, rug
on the floor or ground, with the point
of the niche directed toward Mecca, he
makes his . prayers thereon, standing,
kneeling, bowing down and .salaaming
his head upon the point of the niche.
Prayer rugs may easily be recognized
by the characteristic niche or inverted
"V design woven at - one end of the
rug. This represents the Mlhrab, Or the
niche in the sacred mosque) at Mecca
wherein Is deposited the Koran.
The Kilim and Cashmere rugs belong
to the period before the nap was intro
duced, softness and lightness being the
requisites for use in Asia and Asia
Minor. For use in colder climates.

A PorUand concert and a short tour
In the spring have replaced the plans
for the proposed tour through Southern
Oregon planned by the university or
chestra, according to Professor L. A.
Coon, director. ,
Sunday afternoon. January 9, the or
chestra will give the students 'a dem
onstration of their ability in a concert
in Vlllard hall. At the last concert.
which was given at an assembly period,
the organization was given a big ova
tion by the student body.
The Southern Oregon tour was given
up because of the difficulty of securing
good engagements occasioned by the
closing of many of the high schools dur
ing the week before Christmas.
The buying of instruments with which
to augment the orchestra has been be
gun. A viola and an organ have already
been purchased and a bassoon is expect
ed to arrive soon. The sum of 1427, pro
ceeds from the Armistice eve concert
and dance, has been turned over to the
orchestra with which to pay for these
Instruments. . .
The Cottage Grove high school has
written, asking that the orchestra give
a concert there some time in January.
According .to present plans this invita
tion will be accepted.

The next concert of the Portland Ora
torio society is definitely announced for
Monday, January 3. it is a question
which of the double features of the
program will attract more. The first
part will consist of an hour program
of numbers from the oratorio "Messiah."
with orchestra, piano, pipe organ ac
companiment and Goldie Petersen,' so
prano; Mitylene Fraker SUtes, con
tralto; J. MacMillan Muir, tenor, and
John Claire Monteith, baritone, as solo
ists. The second part will consist of a
recital -program by Cecil Fanning, world
renowned baritone. Mr. Fanning sang
here in concert three years ago, making
at that time a splendid impression on
the large audience. His recent reception
by the critical and conservative music
lovers of England is proof that he Is
well worth hearing. The Portland Ora4
torlo society la fortunate in securing the
services of so fine an artist. A special
rehearsal will be held Sunday afternoon
at : in the vestry of the First Con
gregational church, Park and Madison
streets. There is room In the chorus
now for a limited number of singers In
the alto, bass and tenor sections, and
only those knowing the "Messiah" will
be admitted. Full information may bs
obtained by telephoning Broadway 2777.'
The chorus of the Mondar Musical
club will appear in several numbers at
the Sunday afternoon concert at The
Auditorium, December 19 This chorus
has been directed by Mrs. Rose Coursen
Reed for the past five seasons and is
one of Portland's musical assets.' Flor

thicker snd warmer nigs were needed
and the nap with Its myriads of knots
was Introduced, there being thousands
of knots to the square inch in some
of the finer pieces.. The symbolism of
these rugs and the human emotion por
trayed In j their batterings and colors
are. . when explained by an expert,
among their chief charms. ' f.
Major designs, some of which were
used by the Egyptians 4000 years ago,
have changed but" little. The swastika
i one of the early designs, and it is
still seen with various modifications.
The sacred tree, or the tree of life, with
seven branches. Indicating the seven
days of creation, is a popular design.,
Arabic inscriptions in , some of the
prayer rugs are found to be prayers. :
The Mina Khani design is largely a
combination of red, yellow and blue
floral designs Joined by vines, usually
green., and alternated with geometrical
ly shaped rosettes. , The "pear" or
"river loop design is another popular
design. The Jewel In the. ancient Per
sian crown is pear-shaped, and . many
think of this pattern as a replica, of
that ornament. The El Ayassl pattern,
meaning "palm of the hand," Is an in
teresting design. It was the ancient
custom to seal documents by dipping
the side of the closed hand in blood
and pressing it upon the paper. 'Such
an impression bears a close resemblance
to this pattern. The pine cone design,
the cloud or Deity pattern, animals,
birds and flowers all are to be found.
The dragon Is always traceable to the
Ming influence and i depicts imperial
grandeur. The eagle indicates light
and. height The peacock, the phoenix
and the serpent represent immortality.
The various designs ! and types were
illustrated by choice specimens of rugs.
Cartozlan spoke of the endless perse
verance, year after year, often through
a lifetime, of the artisan of the -East,
who . will labor patiently at his task
that it may be perfect, putting into
his work not only his very soul, but
imparting that subtle charm that no
other worker has ever been able to
equal.

visit every hospital in the United 8tates.
Mr. Galbralth said. "They will inquire
into the care and well being of these
me.i, and then this official visit will be
followed by brotherly v.lsits ; and the
hand of fellowship, which Is warm in the
Legion, shall be extended In place of the
hand of charity, which Is not wanted
and which is cold. These men shall be
our 'comrades' not 'cases.' We shall ask
the cooperation of every loyal American,
especially In the communities where the
hospitals are located. We who are their
comrades know the 20,004 are the real
heroes. Wo fought together and we'll
