~ WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, FESSRUARY 12, 1921 o N. U. ORCHESTRA IN " SYMPHONY CONCERT North Shore Residents Interested in : Annual Musical Presentation Scheduled for February 17 North shore residents will be in- terested in the forthcoming concert to be given on Thursday evening, Feb. 17, in Northwestern university gymnasium, the twenty-fourth con- cert of the symphony orchestra of the school of music of the university. = This will be the second concert of the year given by the orchestra for the people of the north shore. The orchestra now has a member- ship of approximately eighty mem- bers. It has been in existence for the past ten years, and has become known as one of the best orchestras of its kind in the country. The rea- son for this was explained by | Prof. Harold E. Knapp, director | of the orchestra. "We live in aj community," he said, "that is rather extraordinary in the way of musical talent. Besides the students of the school of music, we have easy access to the best of professional talent in Chicago. Then we also open our ranks to the civilians of the north shore. : ' "An orchestra composed of these three groups is a unique organiza- tion. However. we do not use a great deal of professional talent. But a large number of our best violinists are people who have no connection with the school of music, but who had unusual training when they were children and now live here. We have the very best training that money fod buy." ~~ Professor Knapp will be assisted in the presentation of the program' by Walter Allen Stults, basso, and Lewis Randolph Blackman, violinist.

He had rehearsed thoroughly every detail of the English officer's life, but had not been warned that Conniston had a sister, And so, when he found her a wonderfully pretty little thing who called him brother, he loved her instantly; he wanted to tell her the truth, yet he knew that if he did so, he, a fugitive from justice, would be hanged.
