Tg-chnically ber performance was brillant as shown in her encore, "1HUngarian Rhapsody," and No- vecek's "Perpetual Movement," which she played unaccompanied, but at tumes modulation was lack- ing in the more simple pieces.

To the majority of peo- ple the cello is an instrument slightly langer than the violin and smallen than the bass viola but as tan cello solo they have no regard. This is, indeed, a pity because the cella is an instrumenti most closely related ta the bu- man voice and capable of express- ing deep vibrant sentences, light, amry passages and sweet, appeal- ing wbrds.. Aithough Miss Ox-i . ley at times sacrîficed the tone there- was a wealth of feeling in ber nendition o! Corelli's "Ada- gio," Pappe's "Hungaian Rbap- sody" and "Apres un Reve" by Faune. Penhaps "Kol Nidre" by Bruch, with its simple progres- sions expressing a deep moving fonce, was -a1 little above the aven- age listener and it wvas noted with regret that the auditorium was anything1 but quiet while, this number was being played. Fan an encore she piayed Handel's "Bau- ree," which is known and loved by-many. An acco-mpished atist in ev- ery respect Mn. John Coveant, pi- anist, was the bigblight o! the evenîng. Not only did Mn. Ca- veant give t~e other guests a sym- pathetic accampaniment wbich is a difticuit thin~g ta do, but he de- ligited thé audience with bis wide range of solo numbens. The skill and sensitivity with which he played bis first two numbers, 'Rhapsady" by Dobnanyi and AI- beniz's "Sequidilla" were greatly enhanced by bis lack o! manner- isms.

This was a preiie ta his brilliant and stim- ulating performance a! the Scher- zo anu it is unfortunate that he was imposed upon ta play an en- core. During the performance the writer wondered if the audience were listening with their intellect, with their emotians or with a cam- bination af. bath. In this bighly mecbanized and civilized warld there is a tendency ta depend more and mare upon the brain and less and less upon the senses.- We receive impressions through aur five senses and these are giv- en value by the beant and brain. ln a concert o! this kind whicb is highly creative and essentially relative ta the emations if we de- pend too much upon aour mental conception and shut out the ema- tional value we are robbing aur- selves tram the full enjayment which can enrich aur personalities and daily lite. It was fairly ob- viaus that part o! 'the audience was listening with neither of these facîlities as shown by the restless- ness, talkativeness, and absolute rudeness, evident- in people who should know better. This is most distracting ta those who attend the concerts for an uplifting exper- ience. WEDDING GRANT-STEVyENS The home o! Mn. and Mrs. Lamne J. Stevens, Bowmanville, was the scene o! a pretty wedding Friday, Nov. 21, when thein only daugh- ter, Ruth Alberta Stevens, R.N., became the bride of Murray Ross Grant, son o! Mn. and Mns.
