LimE SYMPHONY TO TOUR THROUGH SOUTH I ' New Trier Concert Seuon to Be Followed by Estenaive Travel Engagements The completion of the Littte Sym· phony series of concerts !or. the New Trier Orchestral assoctatton next spring will find that musical body pre· . paring for an extended tour of t~ south that will start in March and continue through. April. So far arrangements have been completed by Karl Schulte, manager of the orchestra, to hold concerts at New Orleans, La., Pensacola and Jackson, Fla.; Mobile, Ala. ; Nas~· ville, Tenn.; and several towns ·m West Virginia. Though the present membership of the orchestra ap· proaches SO, only al)out 25 men will make the trip. All concerts wilt be under the direction of George Dasch. In Fifth Year This tour- the seventh of th e Little Symphony since its inception in 1921 - witt climax Mr. Das(:h's fifth year of work as· leader and organizer of the orchestra, and of man y more years of effort in the mu sical field . He fir st studied as a violin player under Leandro Campanari at the Cincinnati College of ·Music. after his Q"raduation he became a member of th e facult y of th a t school. and later was asso ciated for three years with the Cincinnati Symphon y orchestra which wa s under the leadership of Frank van der Stucken. Played With Thomas Tn 1898 he joined the Theodore Thomas orches tra (now the Chicago Symphony orchestra) and in the following 23 years he became noted as a soloist, teacher, conductor and chamber music playe r. About 15 years ago he organized the Philharmonic String quartet with Messrs. Fritz Itte, Otto Roehrborn and Carl Brueckner. The purpose of Mr. Dasch and Mr. Schulte in organizing the Little Sym· 'lhony was to give greater attention to the presentation of orchestral music in the smaller concert halls and school auditoriums. All their New Trier programs, and every performance on their tours are based on this idea, and their work has been so successful that both Mr. Dasch and Mr. Schulte left the Chicago Symphony orchestra about a year ago and have devoted all their attention to the Little Symphony. "THE TIME OF MAN." By Elizabeth Madox Roberts. The Viking Press. Would You? -be willing to live in a community where ·there were NO churches? Suppose you should awaken some Sunday morning and find the doors of every church closed; services stopped; Sunday schools closed; the Communion withheld; Christian inspiration, hope, fellowship, gone? ~- * * Would you like .this? Certainly not! Then help to make the Church effective by your presence. COME NEXT SUNDAY Directory of Churches: The F~rst Metbotlst t\urch St. Aqastine's Episcopal.

JltfJtr "The Time of Man" is all that its critics have claimed for it, truly a work of art. It is one of those books which slipped unobtrusively into the season's fiction list and then as if it had been a match slipped ·into a haymow began to burn bigger and bigger. It is quite a conflagration by this time, and it is justly so. · It is a story, very simply told, of 'a girl living in the mountains of Kentucky. It is odd that three of the most sensitively written novels of the past year should have been of the southern the unjnitiated. It reminds one of a Russian novel where every character has for every other character a different set of names. At last conquering all these impedimenta we come to the book's content. It is a story whose chief claim to in· terest is certain disconnected flashes of insight and information on literary London and literary people of the past thirty years. These flashes are vivid and illuminating and if you are interested in the subjects they will repay you for conquering the book's disconcerting elements. -EsTHtR GoULD.
