SIRING QUARTET
Society and Clubs
Edited by Eoa Nealon
By Jeunesse Butler.
After the conflict of economic and
social disturbances, war debts, mld-dle-of-the-stream
crossings, defeats
and deflations, the opening strains
from string bowed by Jacques Gor
don and bis tbree conferees, fell
"upon the fevered spirit" like the
lost chord, "with a touch of infinite
calm." The occasion was the con
cert given last night at the high
.nHltsirhim hv the Gordon
String Quartet, as the first in the
series of the Civic Music association.
Concordant, delicately aweet, the
melodious measures so superbly in
terpreted, reassuringly reminded that
within the mental realm may be
found an unassailable retreat, some
thing sure and substantial, which can
neither be disturbed nor destroyed.
Who dwelt, more conspicuously with
in the realm of the spirit,, than the
deaf Beethoven, and who was Increas
ingly, as the years rolled on, in the
world, but not of it.
To the students of piano literature,
ss the majority of amateur musicians
are. the Quartet in A Major. Opus 18.
No. 5, must have been something!
a revelation. Beethoven, to the
pianist, Is a heroic but tragic figure.
A classicist whose pure austerity i
beautiful, but aloof. The A major,
written during the aecond period ox
master's experience, reveals the
younB Beethoven of Vlnna, the -intimate
of loyalty, welcomed in the
hnmes of the socially affluent, court
ed, but never captured, by countesses,
including the engaging Therese. The
number la charming, in the best
meaning of that term.
After Beethoven, the Quartet was
heard in Opus 15. D Plat Major, by
the Hungarian, Dohnanyi. Richness
appeared as this composer's outstand
ing quality. Frankly of the romantic
school, his technical dominion is re
flected in the utmost freedom and
effortless expression. Dohanyl is said
to be "borrow." but If so. individ
uality seemed unhampered in the
composition given last .evening.
What aurprlslng people are the Brtt
alns. Not lacking in courage, surely,
was Professor Joseph Speatght of
j-i..niku Tjwrinn. who dared to con
sider, as a composer, the Shakespeare
fairy characters, after me iwiasumi..
Night's Dream of Felix Mendelssohn.
Spealght's fantasies, "Some Shakes
peare Fairy Characters." concluded
the program.
...v.n. v MMiHariv ethereal Qual
ity of Mendelssohn may never be
found elsewhere (ana wny
It?), the English composer succeeded
In creating some lovely impressions.
Descriptive music in its highest and
least ordinary sense, the fantasies,
from "Puck" to Tttania." were not
unworthy of their titles and assocla
As to the artists themselves, at
least one listener will cease to overly
regret never having heard me rion
zaleys. and Is willing to concede that
the Gordon stands in the very first
rank of present day quartets.
jm. nioht's audience was large and
appreciative, with a greater number
of young people present than last
season. Now if President Isaacs, when
reminding association members to be
in their seats before the concert be
gins, would also remind some to de
sist from whispering and rattling
their programs (two inexcusable
breaches of courtesy) during numbers,
it would be appreciated by those who
desire, rightfully, to give their un
divided attention to the music which
Is being played.
.
Card of Thanks.
We wish to thank our friends and
neighbors, also the Odd Fellows, for
their kindness and sympathy during
our recent bereavement In the loss of
our husband and father: also for the
many beautiful floral offerings.

DELICIOUS CEREAL .
OVERCOMES COMMON
CONSTIPATION
All-Bran Provides "Bulk,"
Vitamin B and Iron
Kelloptr's All-Bran meets a basic
need of the American dietary. It
supplies "bulk" so helpful in cor
recting common constipation. In
eleven years, All-Bran has won
millions of satisfied users.
New tests show added reasons
for the success of All-Bran. Lab
oratory experiments prove that, in
addition to "bulk," it provides vita
min B to help tone tho intestinal
tract.
The headaches, loss of appetite
and enerpy that so often result from
constipation can be overcome by
this pleasant cereal. How much bet
ter than using pills and drugs.
All-Bran is mild. Its "bulk" is
much like that of lettuce. Within
the body, it absorbs moisture and
forms a soft mass, which gently
clears the intestines of wastes.
Two tablespoonf uls daily are suffi
cient to overcome most types of con
stipation. Chronic cases, with every
meal. If not relieved this way, see
your doctor.
Another benefit of All-Bran Is
that it has twice as much blood
building iron as an equal amount
by weight of beef liver.
Serve as a cereal, or use in cook
ing. Tempting recipes on the red-and-groen
parkage. Sold by all gro
ws. Made by Kellogg in Battle
Creek.
