One of the most beautiful
thinsj In the bible is the letter
of Paul to Philemon, asking for
giveness for a run-away slave
whom Paul had converted to
Christianity and desired to send
back to his master. The plot of the
picture parallels the episode which
inspired Paul's letter. The mod
ern story is that of a yduuR man
who betrays his employer's trust
convicted for theft, and after
leaving prison, drifts lower and
lower, finally seeking shelter in
the "Down and Out Club." The
progressive minister who conducts
this mission finally persuades the
young mart to seek forgiveness
from the man he has wronged.
Bringing the two men together,
he tells them the story of Ones
imus and Philemon which is acted
on the screen. The picture has a
dramatic quality of the highest
order.
Carl Sandburg Will Come .
to Salem Under Auspices of

which is bringing to Salem, the

treat of decided n Interest.. -'This
time, on Monday evening. January
27. it will be Carl Sandburg, one
of the foremost American poets
of the day. - "
The folowing excerpts from No.
SI 4 in one of the Haldeman-Julius
"Little Hlue Book" series, give an
excellent idea of what to expect:
"Whenever American poets of
today are discussed with any auth
ority, the name of Carl Sandburg
Is almost certain to appear within
the first half dozen.
Foreign critics, upon examining
the American scene, likewise dis
cern him as one of the peaks that
rise above the plain. . . .Carl San
burg has always been very close
to Chicago, a rough, uncouth.

hard-working Chicago of industry
and transportation.". .Carl Sand
burg has used free verse for many
years, and has not abandoned it
now when so many of the younger
writers ae turning again to metri
cal lyric.' Harriet Monroe says
this of him: "What Sandburg does
is not, as some students seem to
infer, the complete sweeping
away of the metrical pattern.
There is an underlying three-time
or four-time beat in each poem."
"Carl Sandburg was born in
Galesburg, Illinois, January 6,
1878. His father was a railroad
blacksmith, a Swede from the
northern province of Sweden. The
family had no resources; the
mother toiled during the long day,
and in early life Carl looked for
jobs to help thffgs along. He had
a meager grammar school educa
tion hut he liked to read. He drove
a milk wagon once, -became a por
ter in a .barber shop, blacked the
boots of opulent customers, did all
sorts of odd jobs. As a lad he
wanted to see the world and went
on A tour of Kansas and Nebraska
mostly via "blind baggage. He
washed dishes In hotels in Kansas
City, Omaha and Denver, he
worked on the farms of Kansas,
became a carpenter's helper there
then with a pot of asphaltum he
went from house to house, offer
ing to blacken stoves, often in ex

Cecilia Hansen's Violin
Concert Will be Third Event
in Salem Artist Series
TVIiss Cecelia Hansen, the bril
liant Russian violinist who Is
Scheduled to play here on Tuesday,
January IS, at the Elsinore thea
ter, has fallen in love with Ameri
ca and has already taken out her
first citizenship papers. When she
sailed for Europe last spring to
visit her parents in Germany she
toli the reporters:
"I Tike America so much that
J want to become' an American
citizen. When I come back in
the fall it will be to remain in
America. 1 intend to make my
home here. Of course I shall re
turn to Europe now and then on
concert tours or perhaps for a
visit and a vacation, but I like the
United States as a place to live
permanently.
"I do not think I would like
to live in New York city, but I
do know just where I would go,
perhaps somewhere in up-state
New York, maybe Syracuse."
Just why she should mention
Syracuse as a possible place where
she might make her home aroused
considerable curiosity at the time
of her "interview. The reason,
however, is not far to seek. Not
long before she sailed Miss Han
sen gave one of her last recitals
of the season in Syracuse. All
year she had been having a series
of unprecedented successes. Crit
ic-8 began to compare her to Hel-
fetz, and then they began to say
that she was greater than Heifetz.
In Canada she was greeted with
tremendous enthusiasm and in St
Petersburg, Florida, the audience
went wild over her, but it was not
until she reached Syracuse that
the pandemonium that broke out
alter her playing broke all bounds.
There the crowd went mad in their
cheering, and one prominent wom
an vocalist stood up on a chair,
threw her hat in the air and made
a speech haranging the crowd in
Miss Hansen's behalf, telling them
what a great violinist she was.
In face of such an ovation, no
wonder Miss Hansen feels the
folks in Syracuse would be friend
ly to her and make excellent
neighbors.
