gm July 23, 1927 WINNETKA TALK SMALL CONCERT FANS KNOW THEIR "KEYS" Conductor DeLamarter Schools Youthful Ravinians at Thurs- day Afternoon Program By R.L..-P. One needs a pair of sharp ears and | a good memory, in order to take an active part in the Chicago Symphony orchestra's concerts on Thursday after- noons at Ravinia Park. This was especially true Thursday afternoon, July 14. Eric DeLamarter, conductor, after playing the two minuets, one for the woodwinds and one for strings, by Brahms, suddenly asked if anyone could tell what key the first was in. Only a few timidly hazarded the key of G, but we'll wager there'll be more next time, when those with perfect pitch get accustomed to thinking of the key. Perhaps the most interesting thing on the program was Haydn's Finale of the "Oxford" symphony. The orchestra played the motive, the first seven notes, and Mr. Del.amarter put words to it, "When Haydn went to London," be- cause the symphony was first played at the Oxford university, where Haydn had been summoned to receive a high degree. The children had to sing the motive over several times, and then Mr. DeLamarter told them to count the number of times they heard it in the few measures the orchestra would play of the Finale. Most of them resorted to counting on their fingers, the mo- tives appeared so fast. A few guessed it had been played once, some heard it three times, and the majority put it at four times. A few lone hands dared to venture a five or six. All were surprised to know it was played eight times. Then the whole Finale was | played, and this time there was extra keen attention. Like Mozart Overture Mozart's merry overture from "The Marriage of Figaro" was enthusiastic- ally received, and so was Beethoven's | "Polonaise," the rhythm of which the | orchestra played first, so that the chil-| dren would become familiar with it. As always, a few measures of a num- | ber from last week's program was | played at the beginning of the concert, | to check up on the children's memo-| ries. Almost everyone recognized "The | Blue Danube" by Strauss, at the end | of the first bar. Which, considering | there are several hundred children | present, is pretty good. There was more music after the in- termission, this time from the Oak Park Playground band, which has a personnel of forty-six boys, and is di- rected by Harry Dowse. It is the only playground band in this section of the country, and it does rather remarkable work. It gave four numbers, one very martial, one soothing, an Indian num- ber and a medley of patriotic songs. Little Theater Entertains The Playground Little Theater, un- der the direction of Mrs. Joy Crawford, presented a pantomime, "Fancy Pass- es," by Miss Josephine Blackstock. It was the story of a modern boy and girl who are too busy with their own affairs and their jazz to see the beauty of an old garden, into which they come. The Spirit of the Garden, the statues and the flowers mourn that the children no longer have children's magic thoughts, but are silly imitators of grown-ups. With graceful gestures and dainty dances, the flowers and the nymphs offer advice to the Spirit of the Garden, telling what they think should be done to take the jazz poison from the children's hearts. Finally the Moon Lady, called upon with her star maidens and moonbeams, discovers that! fancy is dead. Fundamentally better ! EER THE NEW "12905 and 13458 LESS SIX" ~~ 60 OR two years Peerless engi- neers have concentrated on this new Six-60. Now it's yours to test--to drive --to compare--the New Six-60 --a "fundamentally better" Six. And, lower in price than any car Peerless ever built. Yet, a car that looks, acts and 7s quality! This new Peerless has a wheel- base of 116 inches. Short enough to turn in a narrow street--to slip easily into a space along a crowded curb--to thread uickly through 5 o'clock traffic. But spacious-- with seats that are soft and pillowy--and more than ample leg room. Light enough to be thrifty of gas and oil. Yet heavy enough to be rugged and strong. Lower than most cars you see, with lines smart and clean-cut as a cameo. A brilliant performer, too--with a motor that embodies all that's latest and best in six cylinder construction. And the Ross cam and lever steering makes the Six-60 a wonderfully easy car to drive. Fromits first gentle glide into action, back to the safe, sure stop of its hy- draulic 4-wheel brakes, this"funda- mentally better' Six is a constant joy. No one ever dreamed a car like this could be built at a price so low. Yet hereitis. Only $1295 and $1345.
