Mr. Tokstyan appeared opposite Mme, Bori in both operas, being Count Gil in "The Se- cret of Suzanne" and Paco in “La Vi. " Brave." The repertoire of thirty-six operas seasons mm, must of these were de- vutvd to programs: of national music. This national series included seven Sunsiay afternoon programs in which the works of American, German, French, Italian. Bahamian. Polish and Swedish (-umpum-rs were presented, One Sunday concert was general in so pe, another WWI devoted to solo numbers by members of the orchestra and that of Sunday afternoon.

The ehildren's concerts given every Thursday afternoon throughout the season have, as usual, been important among' the Ravinia activities thir ye ir These concerts are highly edu- rational and through them thousands of children are coming to an under- standing and appreciation of music of the better kind, The programs have lieen presented by the Chioutu Sym- phony orchestra. Erie DeLamarter conducting. and Mr. DeLamurter has 1 featured. during each program. an ex. lpl-inatory talk which has been of tre- imendous value in giving there juve- nile audiences an adequate back- ground upon which to base their ap- preeizition of the music. Each orches- l tral program has been followed by an r,oriturtuinttumt designed especially to I bring joy to the childish heart. These have included miniature vim-uses with "rained animals, child entertainers, a bullet program by Miler Page, and Mr. Soon, n program devoted to entranc- ing and lively scenes from the Gilbert and Sullivan operm. The annual car- nival marked the high spot of the 'season, being both spectacular and patriotic.

As usual the Chieago Symphony or- chvslra was in the pit and likewise appeared at all the concerts. thus oc- cupying tho place it has occupied for nineteen summers. Whether furnish. ing the musical settings for the operas, or playing the concert pro- grams, the Chicago Symphony orches- tra has always been a vital part of the Ravinia season.
