(Continued on page 2) ROLLINS COLLEGE SPONSORS KRESS COLLECTION OF ITALIAN PAINTINGS AT WOMAN'S CLUB By Mabel Mountsier The Kress collection of paintings to be exhibited at the Woman's Club, under the auspices of Rollins College, furnishes a rare opportunity for the interested person, who can use it as a means of finding out for himself the development of Italian painting in its various periods and in several of its greatest schools; for those already familiar with Italian art it affords an opportunity of seeing pictures that supplement the knowledge gained through visits to museums and Italian churches; for the casual observer who says, "I know nothing about art, but I know what I like," (Whistler's answer to this was, 'So, madam, does a cow!'), here is a chance to get first hand knowledge of an unfamiliar subject and to develop a feeling1 for art that will insure a love of it. This collection, consisting of nearly sixty paintings, shows in its selection the hand of a connoisseur in that it represents the range of Italian paintings from the early 14th to the 18th century, principally in the schools of Siena, Florence and Venice. Italian art during the later Middle Ages, the Byzantine period, was so largely controlled by the restrictions of the Church that the artists had lost all contact with nature. But with the coming of Cimabue and his pupil, Giotto (1266-1337), one of the greatest geniuses of all time, there was an awakening that brought about great improvement. The paintings of this new period, the late 18th and the 14th centuries, are known as the Primitives because they show the first signs of the great Renaissance. The Italian Primitives were painted at a time when art was the handmaid of religion and the Church was the chief patron of art. The bare white walls of the churches all over Italy were beckoning the artist to tell in fresco the Bible stories and the lives of the saints to a people unable to read; and the worshippers were looking for spiritual help from altarpieces representing the Madonna and the Christ child. These early altarpieces were painted on wood in tempera (that is, ground mineral colors mixed usually with white of egg), since the medium of oil on canvas was unknown before the last quarter of the 14th century, and even after its introduction from Flanders wood was sometimes used by a painter like Raphael in his Madonna of the Chair. The Primitives, though in technique often crude, show a depth of religious feeling' that makes us (Continued on page 4) DR. EUGENE R. SHIPPEN DESCRIBES HIS TRIP THROUGH SPAIN FOR WINTER PARK TOPICS (The following letter from Dr. Shippen, who with Mrs. Shippen is travelling' through1 the Mediterranean countries, will be of much interest to his many friends in Winter Park.---Ed.) Granada, Spain, Nov. 15, 1934. I am writing in an old Spanish inn, now a neat pension under English management. Once the resort of smugglers, underground passages and hide-outs are still seen. We are on a mountain spur, nearly three thousand feet above sea level, the air bracing, the view magnificent. Below is historic Granada; in the distance, the Sierra Nevadas, snow-covered, rising eleven thousand feet against the blue. Today, as guests of an English army surgeon, on leave from Gibraltar, we had a motor trip on a wonderful mountain road up, up above the snow line, through drifts in places, to an altitude of six thousand feet and more, with the billowy clouds below us. The towering peaks and vast valleys recalled some of the finest Swiss mountain passes. Visiting the Alhambra yesterday, our expectations were more than realized.

Pine St. ORLANDO Page Four WINTER PARK TOPICS, SATURDAY, JANUARY 26, 1935 ROLLINS SPONSORS KRESS COLLECTION overlook their ignorance of perspective and of the anatomy of the human body. Besides, since the Church then believed that the beauty of this world would distract the minds of worshippers, the artists of this period were not allowed to show the beauty of the human body either in the nude or under heavy drapery. This is illustrated in the dramatic Crucifixion, by Luca di Tomme, and in the fine triptych of the Florentine School (about 1350), both in the Kress collection. Also, among the Primitives the rich, decorative use of gold somewhat compensates for the dullness and untruthfulness of color as we have come to know it through the modern painters. It is because of these defects that persons unfamiliar with the Primitive painters are likely to think of them as inferior, but considering the period in which they worked, their achievement was very great and there is no disputing that their religious fervor is unequalled. The pictures of the Kress collection show that as time went on there was a great advance in the technique of painting. The artists, sharing the new interest in the marbles of Greece and Rome that came with the Revival of Learning, began to study the anatomy of the human body and to break away from the domination of the Church. In addition to religious subjects they were now making numerous portraits and choosing allegorical and mythological themes, often with architectural backgrounds. The Madonna and Child, by Piero di Cosimo, is an excellent illustration of the characteristics of the High Renaissance in Italy. This picture, chosen to represent the collection in color on the cover of the catalogue, shows rhythm of line, richness of color, beauty and grace of figure, an arrangement beautifully fitting the circle (called tondo), modelling by means of light and shade, and sweetness of expression without deep religious feeling—all qualities of this period in Florence. The portraits alone would be a rare treat, for each of them may be studied as aii example of the woi'k of its painter. They exhibit not only understanding of character, but also great beauty in certain details, such as the expressive hands and eyes in the Portrait of a Young Man, by Pranciabigio, reminiscent of Andrea del Sarto; the texture of flesh and garment in another Portrait of a Young Man, by Pontormo; the natural expression in the Portrait of a Youth Holding a Book, by Salviati; the original treatment of Doaso Dossi in his rich portrait of Man with Flag; and the Portrait of a Gentleman, by Lorenzo Lotto, with its "graceful and expressive hands, the exquisite play of shadow on the hand holding the handkerchief, and the handsome black mantle with its sweeping folds." The only fault that can be found with the collection of Mr. Kress is its superfluity of riches. Here is Diana, the Huntress, with Nymph, by Paris Bordone, two luxurious figures such as the Venetians admired, against a landscape in which the lights play on the foliage. Nearby is the Aurora, by the great Tintoretto, so called because his father was a dyer and he was therefore the "little dyer." As in all of this painter's work the figure shows vigorous action, a characteristic that gave to Tintoretto the name II Furioso. As we go on so numerous and varied are the pictures that there is no limit to our admiration, and we can only express our envy of Mr. Kress, who can see them whenever and as often as he desires. WINTER PARK HAS BOOKS FOR EVERYONE The visitor to Winter Park will find plenty of reading- matter whether he be scientist, travel lover, or member of the great army of mystery story addicts. Not one but several libraries above the average are ready to serve him. The low rambling white building on Interlachen avenue, the Public Library, standing back from the street among trees and palms invites one to enter and browse around. The stacks are all open, the visitor cordially welcomed, and books are free to all comers. This library had its beginning fifty years ago as a Reading Circle, meeting at homes of members. "Library Teas" were held to raise ' money for books, and were in that day an important social event; in fact the Reading Circle was, here as elsewhere, a forerunner of the Women's Club. After a few years membership increased so that a public room was engaged, in the main business street, open on Saturdays only, for two hours. At this time books were sent weekly to the town of Oviedo, nearby, on the "dinky" train running- along the edge of the College grounds. The train conductor carried and returned the books in a large basket. After a few years a group of public spirited men and women raised by subscription enough money to build a library, the central part of the present building, later enlarged by addition of a Children's Room and large airy Reading Room, where one may enjoy many daily papers and magazines as well as books of reference. The library is still supported by donations and by teas and other entertainments. It is open daily except Sundays and holidays from two until six P. M. The Library of Rollins College in Carnegie Hall of Administration Building is a useful adjunct to the town's literary needs. It is under the direction of an experienced librarian, Mr. Wm. F. Yust. The newest and best books, science, sociology and ethics, music, poetry and art, novels and plays, with fascinating racks of magazines are found here. One must choose books from the card index but by request at the desk the book you wish is yours for a specified time without charge. This privilege as well as use of Reading Rooms, with choice of New York, Boston and other daily newspapers, also English, French, German and Spanish periodicals, is extended to all winter residents. This library is open daily from 8:15 A.M. to 10 P.M. except on holidays and during general college assemblies. The Reading Room is open from 3:30 to 5:30 P. M. Sundays. For those readers who wish the very latest fiction there is The Bookery, on E. Park avenue, where books may be found with ink still damp from the press. These may be rented by the day and are also on sale. Walk-Over Shoes—You can't help walking with a smarter poise.

Of the original officers of the Poetry Society and Allied Arts, Dr. Hamilton Holt, Mr. Irving Bacheller, Dr. James B. Thomas, Mrs. Scollard and Mrs. Powers remain in office today. This organization, founded for the encouragement of creative arts in Florida, has given around three thousand dollars in prizes in the fine arts, drama and pageantry, poetry, fiction and musical composition during the past five years as well as several book awards in poetry. After a graphic survey of the work of prominent poets from the time of the awakening of the social consciousness in 1908 caused by Edwin Markham's "Man With the Hoe," the Imagist movement led by Amy Lowell and the "Waste Land" school of the post-war period influenced by T. S. Eliot, Mrs. Scollard gave a most interesting review with readings of Paul Engle's "American Song" which has sold more than 70,000 copies and is a significant challenge to the defeatist school, with its eloquent appeal for a return to the belief in America's high destiny. Speaking of Robert Hillyer, Mrs. Scollard called his work "suavely beautiful, of the classic and romantic type but not poetry of great power," reading as examples the lyrics "Ponder the Tone" and "Never Fear." Contributed verse was read by Dr. Earl Fleischmann and included poems by Agnes Kendrick Gray, David Morton, Margaret Widdenier, George Meason Whicher, Rose Mills Powers and May Lewis as well as the unknown writer of the winning poem. Guests were received by Mrs. Hamilton Holt and among guests from out of town were Mrs. William Ronald of Daytona Beach and Mr. Arthur Guiterman of New York, members of the Poetry Society of America, also Mrs, Guiterman, Mrs. Young and Mrs. Stillman of Daytona Beach, and Augustus Strong of Rochester, N.

Bridge parties are to be a Saturday night feature commencing this evening. Helen Moore's piano recital on Tuesday evening again demonstrated the sterling artistry of this popular member of the Rollins Conservatory faculty. Her program offered a wide variety ranging from the lighter pieces of Couperin to the more solid matter of Brahms and closing with a brilliant performance of the Dohnanyi arrangement of Strauss' Schatz Waltzer. Especially notable was the Prelude, Chorale and Fugue of Franck in which Miss Moore reached a high plane of technical perfection and expressive interpretation. See This Winter Park Opportunity WHAT?

Atkinson, chief executive officer of "the Church Peace Union, will come to Winter Park early in February to assist President Hamilton Holt in conducting a course on "War and Peace in International Relations", and to work •with Professor A. Buel Trowbridge in conducting a course on "Religion and International Life." Dr. Atkinson, who gave the Commencement address at Rollins last June, served as special service secretary for the Congregational Churches of the United Statesirom 1911 to 1918 when he resigned to become chief executive officer of the Church Peace Union and the World Alliance for International Friendship Through the Churches. Since 1919 he has travelled extensively in Europe, spending more than half of his time each year in developing the work of the Alliance, visiting the Councils that have been established and forming new points of contact with the religious and educational institutions in all of these countries. Miss Caroline Heine, a graduate of Rollins with the class of 1932, and now associate editor of "Peace Action", and a member of the staff of the National Council for Prevention of War, Washington, D. C, is coming- back to Rollins during the coming term to work with President Holt and Dr. Atkinson in giving the course on "War and Peace in International Relations." Colored Singers And Mrs. Bethune To Be Heard Winter visitors and townspeople who are interested in Neg-ro education and music are invited to the Congregational Church at 8 o'clock next Thursday night, January 31st, to hear the spirituals and other songs rendered by a colored quartette and a glee club of Winter Park singers. Mrs. Bethune, President of the Bethune-Cookman College in Daytona Beach, a brilliant speaker, a great educational leader of her people and one of the best known in America, will speak on "The Progress and Possibilities of the Negro Race." Admission is free but a collection will be taken for the benefit of the colored day nursery and kindergarten in Winter Park, which has its own buildings but is dependent upon friends for its maintenance. It is hoped there may be a generous offering' for this worthy cause. EDITH BOND STEARNS OF PETERBORO HERE Edith Bond Stearns, who spent last season in Winter Park editing the "Memoirs" of her mother, Isabella Bacon Bond, has recently published them in a private edition. Among the many letters she has received concerning this book was one from Mrs. Dallas Lore Sharp, widow of the famous writer. She said in part: "I feel they constitute the social (art, etc.) history of Boston for the period they cover and so should have a much wider reading than this private edition allows. Yesterday as I listened to Geraldine Farrar as 'Raconnteuse' between acts at the Metropolitan Opera doing 'La Traviata,' I felt the book should have a big review in the Boston Transcript and Herald bringing to readers' attention your father's start of her for her European training, and the story of Elizabeth Stuart Phelps' marriage, as well as a lot else not so spicy." Mrs. Stearns, after a very successful season at her summer theatre situated in Peterboro, New Hampshire, near the MacDowell Colony, is now spending a few months' rest in Winter Park. "The Peterboro Players are a creative group whose every effort is bent towards the production of original plays in an original manner." Among those on the advisory board are Miss Annie Russell and Dr. Richard Burton of Rollins College, also Ruth St. Denis, and Carl Carmer, formerly on the staff of Theatre Art Monthly. PODOCARPUS PLANTED FOR CHRISTMAS TREE Arbor Day was fittingly observed in Winter Park with a program under the auspices of the Garden Club on Wednesday afternoon at the Woman's Club. A podocarpus, more commonly known as "fern pine," was dedicated as a living Christmas tree for Winter Park. This tree is capable of growing to a height of 70 feet. The species came from Africa and while not extensively cultivated in this conntry are particularly well adapted to Florida. Dr. E. 0. Grover made an address, and the Boy and Girl Scouts who took part in the exercises made the following pledge: I PROMISE Not to pull up plants by the roots. Not to injure animals, trees, plants and flowers in my town. To do my best to sow seeds or plant trees and flowers at least once a year. Not to throw broken tins, paper, or any other rubbish in my yard or on the streets. To do all I can to prevent foret fires. To help make my town healthful and beautiful. HOUSTON TO DIRECT ORLANDO PLAYERS Mr. John Houston, young Winter Park playwright and director, is directing "Broken Dishes," a three-act comedy written by Martin Flavin and being presented by the Orlando Little Theatre Players, Thursday evening, January 31, at the Sorosis House in Orlando at 8:00 p. m. Mr. Houston has recently been appointed production director of the Orlando Little Theatre. A graduate of Williston Academy and American University of Washington, D, C, during his college career Mr. Houston directed and appeared in Shakespearean plays, usually carrying the burden of the comedy. After graduating from college Mr. Houston became director of the University Players and a member of the board of directors of the Theatre Guild of Mountain Lake, N, Y. In 1933 and 1934 Mr. Houston won first place in the Orlando Little Theatre playwriting contests. Among the plays written by John Houston are: a farce comedy "Kissproof," a mystery melodrama "Madame Death," "Library," and "Sunset by Slantsky," a short satire which was the prize winning play in 1933, and "The Four Square Man."

Music holds a high place in the local affections and rightly so, for have we not the most unusual star attraction of the Symphony Orchestra, and the effective singing of the Chapel Choir, to say nothing- of the several individual vocalists and instrumentalists who are heard from time to time in this "Town that Became a University" ? Dr. Newman Reviews Pirandello's Work A large audience heard Dr. Evelyn Newman speak at All Saints' Parish House on Monday afternoon, January 19, on Luigi Pirandello, Pulitzer Prize winner in Drama for 1934. Dr. Newman believes that Pirandello's great success is due to his striking the keynote of a disillusioned post-war world. After a brief sketch of his life in Sicily and Germany she reviewed two of his famous novels, both tinged with a terrible philosophy of frustration and revolt against a mechanized age. Of his many plays, Dr. Newman reviewed four of his best known dramas in all of which he draws strange fantastic types to illustrate his hopeless credo of disillusion. In contrasting him with Bernard Shaw, the speaker said Shaw's women have strength whereas Pirandello's feminine types are inconstant, weak and sad. Members of the Church Service League served tea after the lecture. "Joseph and His Brethren," by the famous German author, Thomas Mann, -will be the subject of the next lecture on Monday afternoon, January 26. WHAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT CITRUS FRUIT (As Winter Park Topics shares its office on East Park avenue with Mr. K. F. McPherson, the well known citrus grower, your Editor asked him to tell our readers how to pick out good fruit and why.' Here we have it.—Ed.) In the purchase of citrus fruit the average person relies solely on the looks, and strange to say this method can be followed with satisfactory results with all fruits with the exception of citrus fruits. The best looking orange or grapefruit is by no means the sweetest and juiciest nor of the best flavor. California has always been noted for the looks of her fruit but when our Florida fruit is ripe there is no fruit in the world that will excel it in sugar and juice content as well as flavor. It is a very deplorable fact that the growers of this State have been guilty of the unforgivable sin of shipping fruit before it is properly mature; a crime that carries rightly the severe penalty of poor prices. It has always seemed to me that the right and proper way to sell citrus fruit would be by the pound because the purchaser is naturally more interested in the amount of juice that his money will buy. Therefore it is my suggestion to those buying oranges that they pay more attention to the weight of the individual orange than they do to the outside appearance. If an orange is of high juice content the weight of the orange will be relatively heavy, This test may at first seem rather complicated but it is astonishing how soon one can judge the juice: content by the weight by just holding the orange in the palm of the hand. This test is one that is very necessary at this season as the recent freeze has brought about a drying-out condition in a large majority of the fruit offered for sale. Wherever a grove was injured by the recent freeze the fruit will be found to be light in weight and lacking in juice content. This condition varies in accordance with the severity of the frost damage. In the purchasing of citrus fruit it would be well to remember that the best fruit is usually bought direct from the grower. No grower by any means produces all first-class fruit, but in nearly every case his first-class fruit is kept exclusively for his individual shipment and sales, the poorer grade fruit is sold to the packing houses where it is packed and shipped to the Northern auctions or sold to road stands to be resold at prices in keeping with the quality and grade of such fruit. Therefore the two important things to remember in the buying of citrus fruit either for your own use or for shipping to your friends is to be sure of the juice content by the weight of the orange and to buy, whenever possible, directly from the grower. K. N. McPHERSON. PPISTER PAINTINGS SHOWN IN MEMPHIS Jean Jacques Pfister, who recently had an exhibition of twenty-five paintings at the Brooks Memorial Art Gallery, Memphis, Tenn., reports a very interesting trip and visit. The gallery is beautiful and Memphis an alert center of art activities, as witnessed by the large and enthusiastic attendance at the exhibition. The group of paintings Mrs. Louise Bennett Clark, director of the Brooks Memorial Art Gallery, described as "Outdoors Kaleidoscope Caught by Brush of Jean Pfister," perhaps because of the wide scope of interest Mr. Pfister habitually displays in his pictures, ranging' in subject from "The Telephone Building," "George Washington Bridge," and "East River"—all from New York City, to "The Continental Divide, Idaho," "Old Miner's Cabin, Montana," "Rocky Coast, Maine," "Myakka River, Florida," the colorful "Autumn in New Hampshire," and several paintings of Switzerland and California. Probably the two paintings "Old Fashioned Flowers" and "First Glow—the Tetons" were the favorites, although "Autumn in New Hampshire" and "Mount Washington" also vied in popularity. Incidentally, a very fine Italian painting from the famous Kress collection which was shown in the Brooks Memorial Gallery one year ago was presented to the Museum and hangs permanently in the beautiful gallery. The Kress Italian paintings are to be shown in Winter Park in February. Mr. Pfister found, even !in the winter time, much sketching material in and about Memphis, particularly the city sky line and the Mississippi River with the Cottonwood trees and vines as well as the commercial activities on this mighty stream. Mr. Pfister gave one demonstration painting talk at the Brooks Memorial Art Gallery, and in a few moments his audience recognized a favorite Mississippi park just south of the city. He also gave a demonstration painting before the students of the Academy of Fine Arts and Design. Winter Park Topics CHARLES F.

SHIPPEN'S LETTER FROM SPAIN (Continued from page 1) ace, though long since bare of furnishings, outranks, in my judgment, the palaces of France and Italy in its refined beauty, Doubtless familiar to many of your travelled readers, and often described, it calls for no superlatives of mine, yet I shall carry away with me an indelible picture of its superb location, its rivulets and fountains, its myrtle, box, rose, and cypress gardens, reflected in still pools, its delicate wall tracery, picked out in gold and clear colors, still, fresh after many centuries, its royal courts and luxurious inner chambers, its cedar and mother-of-pearl domed ceilings, its inlaid gates,— what is there to compare with it? No wonder Boabdil, the Moorish king, who surrendered the Alhambra to King Ferdinand in 1492, the last of the Moors in Spain,—no wonder he wept, though a warrior, upon leaving this earthly paradise. Does history justify the Spaniards in driving the Moors out of Spain? According to Havelock Ellis, in his "Soul of Spain," "Granada represents the victory of the least amiable moment of Christianity over the most exquisite moment of Islam . . . one of the finest civilizations the world has known." Nevertheless, as I see it, the Moors, as an ultra-conservative people, stationary in their religion and civilization, their women hardly better than slaves, did not, and do not, belong to a progressive social order. Spain, backward as she was, yet possessed the germs of development. It is significant that Spanish, not Moorish, jewels made it possible for Columbus to discover a new world. We realized the static character of the Moor when we went to Fez, the capital of Morocco, before we visited Spain. Reached by a tiresome all-day bus ride from Tangier, Fez is a mediaeval, walled city of a hundred thousand souls, wherein life has changed little in eleven centuries. We found it a veritable labyrinthine rabbit-warren, its steep ten-foot streets crowded with Moors, Berbers, Riffs, Soudanese, Jaws and Oriental nondescripts, with never a European or an American. Men wearing the fez, or the turban in every possible color, and the invariable white bournous, with its peaked hood— women swathed in white up to the eyes—donkeys almost concealed under their heavy loads, pushing their way in the crowd—an occasional horseman on a spirited barb —a ceremonial procession with musicians thumping queer drums and blowing continuous strident blasts on five-foot slender trumpets—- merchants on either side of the trellis-covered streets, in tiny booths sitting behind their wares of copper, leather, rugs, fruits and what-not, without solicitation— mosques here and there, gorgeous in their rich tracery and green tiles, a joy to the eye, entrance being forbidden to "Christian dogs," —these were some of the pictures, an ever-changing kaleidoscope, presented to our unaccustomed eyes. Aside from many human derelicts., diseased and pitiful, the men, as a type, impressed us greatly, with features classic, clear eyes, olive skin, and, above all, with their proud and high-bred bearing. Finer looking men we have never seen. Even the waiters at our hotel, elderly bearded men, were of distinguished "port," to use an old English word, and might almost have been mistaken for dignified Rollins College professors. The mountain Berbers, by the way, are by some thought to be descendants of the ancient Romans, hence, as Aryans, distant cousins of ours! Not to be claimed, however, for Cunningham Grahame calls the Berbers "the greatest thieves, assassins and traitors in the world." Queer as we must have appeared to these Orientals of Fez, they paid us no attention, almost superciliously ignoring us. We should not, however, have felt safe in that dark, mysterious city without our guide. EUGENE RODMAN SHIPPEN. (Continued next week.) RANDOM NOTES At the meeting1 of the University Club last Saturday evening a Constitution was adopted and the election of officers will take place at the next meeting, February 2nd, Dr. Charles W. Dabney spoke on "Education in the South," largely devoting his attention to the negro, and giving data which he had compiled as a member of the Southern Education Board which later ' became the General Educational Board, one of the Rockefeller undertakings. The open discussion following revealed much interest in the subject and it was voted to give it further consideration on the program of the next meeting when Mr. William E. Stark, formerly of Hampton Institute, will address the club. On next Thursday morning at the regular Art Seminar, Edith Fairfax Davenport will address the group on the topic "The ItalianRenaissance." Miss Davenport has won many honors here and abroad, being the first American woman to be admitted to the Beaux Arts. Being a grand-niece of Whistler and having attained such high rank in her field, she was given permission by the French Government tocopy the painting of Whistler's mother in its exact dimensions. This copy was shown at the Exposition in Chicago this summer with the permission of the French Government. The canvas will be exhibited at the Pataky Gallery in Orlando during the show to be held there Jan. 28-Feb. 11. Miss Davenport has a winter studio in Zellwood, the rest of the year she divides between her New York and Kansas City studios. DR. STOCKING TO SPEAK AT KNOWLES CHAPEL (Continued from page 1) of the Pilgrim Church in St. Louis to accept the call to the First Congregational Church in Newton Centre, Mass, In this new field of service, Dr. Stocking will be a successor to Dr. Edward M. Noyes, pastor emeritus of the First Congregational Church in Newton Centre, and now winter pastor of the Tourist Church in Seabreeze, Daytona Beach.

No hotels in any iesort, summer or winter, are more beautifully situated. Their ample grounds 'bordering the shores of Lakes Maitland and Osceola are like private estates with a wealth of Florida's semi-tropical trees and flowers, the brilliant flame vine tipping the landscape with its striking hues. The restful atmosphere of these hotels, their seclusion from the annoyances of automobile traffic and the dell^frfcful climate of Central Florida make the sojourn of the visitor in Winter Park a never-to-be-forgotten pleasure.

VIRGINIA INN'S VALENTINE PARTY BACHELLER URGES LINCOLN IDEALS INSPIRED PLAYING AT SUNDAY CONCERT The celebration of St. Valentine's Day at the Virginia Inn is one of Winter Park's traditions. The gnes-ts of the house and their many friends in the winter colony join together in an evening of entertainment that is always keenly anticipated. The program on Tuesday evening was inaugurated by a host of dinner parties for which the Inn was most attractively decorated with effective reminders of St. Valentine, A delightful series of vocal and instrumental numbers followed after which the minstrel show with popular Manager John J. Hennessy as interlocutor supplied no end of merriment with its numerous references to the happenings and personalities familiar to the guests. Warning his great audience of attentive listeners that the young people of today may live to see Hell set loose unless the evil tendencies of the time are overcome, the famous author, Mr. Irving Bacheller, made a stirring appeal for a revival of the ideals of Abraham Lincoln in his address at Knowles Chapel last Sunday. Striking highlights were: "My young friends, the Nero of greed seems to have captured the world and you must deliver it. Since St. , Paitl was taken by Rome there has been no greater war of the spirit than that you are facing and you cannot succeed unless you get in touch with a power not open to your enemies." (Continued on page 4) There was a thrill in the playing of the Symphony Orchestra last Sunday afternoon. It was in the very first number of a well played program that the writer experienced something of the uncanny,— that mysterious solvent which pierces deeply into the spirit. Weber's famous Overture to his gloomy opera "Der Freischutz" has been regarded by all great conductors from Richard Wagner down to the incomparable Toscanini with a reverence that is traditional. Conductor Harve Clemens was also under the spell of this magic music and his players were moved by it It is sure-fire music, inspiring to the players as well as to the audience. (Continued on page 4) Editor Hamilton Holt is putting something more than literature into the coming Eighth Issue of the "Animated Magazine" which will "appear" on the stand Sunday afternoon, February 25th, at 2:30. He has secured two members of President Roosevelt's Cabinet, Attorney General Homer S. Cummings and Commerce Secretary Daniel C. Roper, as contributors. The subjects of their articles have not been announced - but it is not likely that they will tell Bed Time Stories when everybody wants to hear about the New Deal, especially from headquarters. To bring these two distinguished leaders of the Administration from Washington to Winter Park is a master stroke of editorial acumen and strategy on the part of Editor Holt and is sure to attract the largest audience ever seen here for these unique events. In previous years it is estimated over five thousand have attended, coming from all parts of Florida and representing almost every State. It is a great day for Rollins and for Winter Park, and is a fine demonstration of how an original idea in the mind of a man of vision can produce an impressive result. The "Animated Magazine" will be issued this year from the stand just constructed at the corner of the large open block in front of the college buildings where it will be possible to accommodate many more "readers" than the former site adjoining Carnegie Hall. Amplifiers will make the voices of the contributors audible at all points. Book Professor Edwin Osgood Grover acts as Publisher for Editor Holt.

Lacy of Niagara Palls and Miss Blanche Sands of New York are here for the season. Mrs. John J. Carty had as guests last week Mr. and Mrs. Thomas A. aWtsoh of Boston. Mr. Watson is the scientist who made the first telephone for Alexander Graham Bell and his was the first voice ever to be heard on a telephone. A number of years ago he went into the shipbuilding business, and started the Fore River Shipbuilding Company. Mr. Watson has written an autobiography under the title of "Exploring Light," which may be found in the library here. An informal tea was given on Monday at the home of Dr. Charles W. Dabney in honor of his cousins Dr. and Mrs. W. G. Harrison of Birmingham, Ala., who are here for several days before going to the East Coast. In the receiving line were Dr. Dabney, Dr, and Mrs. Harrison and Mrs. John Wilson, the latter 'being the daughter of the Harrisons. About fifty guests called during the afternoon. The color of the flame vine was carried out in the most attractive decorations. That was a very enjoyable little colloquy that ensued at the close of Dr. Richard Burton's recent lecture on twelve outstanding works of fiction of the year. Dr. Holt, exercising the right of questioning, inquired of Dr. Burton which he preferred,—-the recent writers or the great novelists of the past. The lecturer replied that it was hardly a fair question under the circumstances because he had been brought down to Rollins to teach the young people literature and if they thought he went back to the old writers for his favorite they might call him an old fogy. Nevertheless, he stated, he was willing to take chances and he declared Dickens to be his favorite writer of fiction. Now it just happens that Dr. Burton is being backed up in his selection by two rather impressive pieces of evidence. The recent publication by Doubleday, Doran of Stephen Leacock's latest work, "Charles Dickens, His Life and Work," contains the following appraisal of Dickens by the wellposted Canadian: "The highest reach of the world's imaginative literature,"—and Leacock is no more of an old fogy than Dr. Burton. The other exhibit in the case is the price that was paid by competing publishei's for the rights to Dickens', unpublished "Life of Christ" which has been liberated by the recent death of his son,— some $210,000. Dr. Burton has been an admirer and exponent of Dickens from his boyhood, regrets intensely the incident of his parents keeping him at home when the great author came to Hartford for a reading for fear that "Dickey" might be too much affected by Oliver Twist, has lectured over a hundred times on Dickens, is the author of "Dickens, How to Know Him," one of the most readable of books. "No other novelist has exerted so much influence over so long a time," said Dr. Burton, to his interviewer. "One of his best achieve- THE WHISTLING KETTLE Tea House and Gift Shop LUNCHEONS AFTERNOON TEAS SUPPERS Private dining room for luncheons and dinners such as you would give in your own home.

It put the kind of Christmas we know, of warm fellowship and good cheer, on the map." A quotation from Dr, Burton's book on Dickens sums up his view: —"An examination into the matter of editions shows that this writer is not only holding his own, but gaining from year to year;—there is a steadier demand for his books than for those of any other story tellers except for the temporary vogue of some current writer who is in demand for a year or so and then rapidly falls into innocuous desuetude Dickens' chance to live and renew his effect upon mankind as the years pass by was never brighter than it is at the present time." Asked for his favorite Dickens novel, Dr. Burton replied: "David Copperfield, confessedly his masterpiece, published when the author was thirty-eight, the most autobiographic, crowded full with scenes and characters that are as familiar and as great favorites as any fiction that ever came from an English pen." Dr. Burton has recently received a call from the University of Hawaii at Honolulu to give a course on Dickens during the six weeks of his coming engagement there. to see their unusual display of gifts and prizes from The Whistling Oyster at Ogunquit, Maine.

There was another thrill in the violin playing of Alice Biscow Sager, who has been heard before in Winter Park with much pleasure. This strikingly attractive young woman was a charm to the eye as well as to the ear and as she was seen before she played it is only lair to mention it in that order. Pier playing of the first movement of the Beethoven Concerto, Op. 61, showed a well founded musicianship and a technical mastery that was impressive and most enoyable, In spite of the unfavorable atmospheric conditions her intonation was a delight and her cantilena passages sang. She successfully essayed the difficult cadenza interpolated by Kreisler, showing facility and surety in her double stopping. This young artist is the sole product of George Orner of the Jacksonville School of Music, a Florida girl whose talent should be a source of pride to the State, as it is a ti'ibute to her teacher. I must also praise the exquisite playing of the viola by Dante Bergonzi and of the oboe by Carl Bowen in the duet passages of the second of the Caucasian Sketches. The brass choir was notably effective in the first and the whole orchestra gave a brilliant account of itself in the stirring "Procession of the Sirdar." A large audience enjoyed the concert and expressed its pleasure enthusiastically. The next concert -will be Sunday, March 4th, with Mine. Sundelius as soloist.

No higher power will help us while we are idle." The foundations of Lincoln's strength, said Mr. Bacheller, were his sense of honor which made him keep his word and stopped him from doing a mean thing to which was added a willing'ness to work. "The road to God, according to my peculiar notion," said Mr. Bacheller, "is by patient searching and the love of your neighbors. "Truth found a new channel in Lincoln and flooded through him.— His words were like the hands of Christ touching the eyes of the blind,—people saw. The world was never more thirsty for the truth that flowed through Lincoln in his Gettysburg address and the second inaugural." "No man in centuries has put so many people on their knees. Follow him and he'll put you there and your church 'though it have but one member will be a holy place." MME. SUNDELIUS HEARD IN RECITAL A large audience attended the recital given by Mme. Marie Sundelius, former prima donna soprano of the Metropolitan Opera, at the Annie Russell Theatre on Monday evening. Mme. Sundelius was suffering from the effects of a recent illness which had obliged the postponement of her recital from last week, and she announced to the audience that she was singing under difficulties. Despite her handicap, however, Mme. Sundelius demonstrated the manner and experience of the artist that she is as was delightfully shown in her description of the Scandinavian ballad about the little boy who changed his cow for a violin. Her program contained many interesting novelties as well as old favorites. She will be heard again at the next concert of the Symphony Orchestra and her many friends in Winter Park hope that her indisposition will have passed and that they will have an opportunity to enjoy the plenitude of her well-known accomplishments as a soloist.

PARK AVE., SOUTH Page Six WINTER PARK TOPICS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1934 Winter Park and Winter Parkians By LEWIS SAYRE BURCHARD A New Yorker, wintering in "Winter Park, wrote these lines to read at the Poetry Society of Florida at the close of a meeting on Irving Bacheller's estate, "The Gate o' the Isles," but, when he found that all contributions must first be submitted to a committee to see if they were "poetry," he lost courage and sent them to the Winter Park Topics. When ^Driving to Ormond VISIT . Precocious Spring, a true Ploridian, Provokes siestas post-meridian. Awaking from my poet-lunch nap, My eyes fell on this pretty map, Drawn by the pen of Hiram Powers, Locating your home;—yours—and ours; Each office, each enchanted lake, All set forth for his business' sake; The cloistered shades of Rollins College, Where youth and maid blend fun and knowledge; Where March's sun shines bright and warm. Yet all escapes the one chief charm, The one incomparable spark Whence springs the flame of Winter Park. I grant the beauty of your trees, But Athens without Pericles And those who galaxied Aspasia Had been Boaotian in aphasia. Without the voice of bards and sages, Could she have echoed through the ages? Take Plato from his Academe, And Academe were but a walk; Subtract the poet and his dreams, And "English Lit" were only talk, Now who, within this tiny chart, Can find the secret at its heart Which makes our village stand alone, The jewel on this Sunland's zone? . Let's pick the poke of an English poet, (Of course, your Profs of "Lit" will know it,) And, begging pardon of each scholar, Adapt a line from dear old Waller. This, which the Realtor designed, Contains the cream of human kind, Wee atlas of a tiny earth, A Paradise of charm and worth. A little hamlet, but in there Dwells all that's good and all that's fair. Give me hut what this map doth bound, . And take the rest the sun goes round. Parnassian shades, whose trees and flowers Invite you poets here to dwell, Where, through Decameronian hours, If not on banks of Asphodel, Surely, within this "Gate o' the Isles,"—• Hesperides, the Happy Isles- Like Florence's immortal ten, While Spring across your glad lakes smiles, You strum your sonnets o'er again. Hear Winter Park assert her claim Above each rival town's pretense. (Pardon if I leave out a name Nor .count omission an offense.) Let Tallahassee make her laws; Can she produce the Albert Shaws? Has Sanford such a potentate As ours of the double aspirate, Whose "Pounders' Weeks" and "Institutes" Shall crowd his "dorms" with new recruits? In Jacksonville was never seen An "Animated Magazine." For Mardi Gras, or Mi-Careme, Miami doth a "Queen" proclaim. No amateur or pro-tem "queen" Can hold a candle to our Dean. We've raised no tall, pink "Singing Towers," But, Bok, have you a Rose Mills Powers, ; Whose Celtic dreams and cavaliers Are ringing yet in these old ears ? Daytona, speed your racing cars, And call the sea to level sands; Herrick and Bacheller are stars No Junior Asbury Park commands. In rocking chairs upon the walk St. Petersburgers bask aiid talk; But can their chat, however sprightly, Match, the. debates of our "Fortnightly"? The Camel's Bell Florida branch of Miss Burton's famous shop at Peking, China Key West and Tampa make cigars; That's all;—but we supply the lights, With sparkling constellated stars, At Vincent's Church on Tuesday nights. Orlando boasts the County Court, Where Law's slow wheel grinds round its hub; But for a Court of finer sort Drop in and see our Woman's Club. One town there's left, whose slightest capers Pervade the gravured Sunday papers; Where Deauville lolls upon the sand, And pooled nymphs dive to beat the band; Where Fortune's wheel just spins and spins, And one man loses, one man wins; Where robber barons cocktails sip, And myriad palms demand their tip. Now, with one claim I'll sweep the field And force this swankiest foe to yield,— One argument of purest gold To knock the proud pretender cold:— Palm Beach may house the million-dollared,— BUT—we have Clinton and Jessie Scollard!

Morse Boulevard Telephone 140 GUESTS THRONG HOTELS FIRST THOUGHTS The editor can not rest very easily in his easy chair for some time yet as he has too many details to look after in the starting of a new publication. However, the many kindnesses and good wishes of encouraging friends is making his task a pleasant one. The large number of subscriptions which came to his desk in advance have been a great joy and a challenge to his efforts to produce a paper that will fill a true need in Winter Park. From the standpoint of the editor the outlook has been one of pleasant anticipations and keen interest; from the standpoint of the publisher and business manager, the production and carrying on of any kind of publication in these times is something like sailing a boat in a calm. But there is a breeze of business encouragement starting up in the southern end of the State and who can say but that the anxieities of the publisher will ..-shortly turn into the joy of the editor? ^ We present our first issue following Emerson's advice never to apologize or explain. We hope to improve our product and make up in future issues any omissions or shortcomings. -®- One of the most treasured communications the editor has received is the following: "Dear Mr. Hammond:—Here's a dollar for my subscription to Winter Park Topics. Long may it live, is the wish of an old magazine editor. : Hamilton Holt." o The editor's only complaint is that there are so many interesting things going on in Winter Park all the time that he can hardly do justice to them all. With his notebook full he sits down to write and glancing at the calendar finds to 1 is dismay that there is another event to be covered at the very same minute. We now are looking for several assistant editors who will serve largely for love of printer's ink and the joy of "seeing it in print." We could use as many viceeditors as a big bank has vice-presidents. ^ Inquiries about Winter Park will be gladly answered by Winter Park Topics.

They are therefore planning a garden fete for February 26th for the benefit of the gardens and to give the public an opportunity to see the extraordinary display of azaleas which are now in full bloom. Azalea Gardens on Lake Maitland is one of Winter Park's most attractive spots. Plans are being completed for a program of dancing by a group of children, and the natural background of rare and lovely tropical plants and shrubs will be a perfect setting for this entertainment. Miss Alice Knox and Mrs. Louise C. Goss, members of the original Azalea committee which was started some years ago, are in charge of the fete. BALLAD DISCUSSED AT POETRY SOCIETY The old question of whether the ballad originated communally or was of personal composition was settled as far as the Poetry Society of Florida is concerned when both its president, Jessie Rittenhouse Scollard, and Arthur Guiterman, nationally known poet, laid their views before the regular meeting of that organization at the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Kraft last Saturday afternoon. Both speakers discussed the history and origin of the ballad, and both agreed that it undoubtedly was of personal composition. Mrs. Scollard traced the early beginnings of this form of lyrical and narrative verse and read examples of early Scottish and English ballads. Mr. • Guiterman touched briefly on the writings of a ballad from his own experience and illustrated with one of his own poems, "Death and General Putnam." He also read his humorous poem, "The Quest of a Ribband". A group of original contributed poems were read at the close of the meeting by Mrs. A. E. Dick. ROGERS' "JOLLY ROGER" WINS FIRST RACE The first race of the Winter Park Boat Club was a great success.

Accord- (Continued on page 6) By Marge Lockman A talk with- Arthur Guiterman, writer of such rollicking verse as "Quest of a Ribband" and "Strictly Germ-Proof", is enjoyable and enlightening, but when the conversation centers on Gertrude Stein and her particular brand of "poetry" it becomes something long to be remembered. "I find myself totally unable to understand the type of mind that could take that sort of thing seriously," Mr. Guiterman replied when asked his opinion of Miss Stein's work. "In my opinion there are but two explanations' for' anyone writing such so-called poetry— charlatanism or mental abberation. If Miss Stein is sincere, which I would not presume to judge, in writing such things as her recent opera, she herself may know what she is trying to convey, but as I see it her jumble of words could not possibly express anything to another's mind." "The widespread conception that 'Art is Self Expression' is not true," he further explained. "Art is a communication; if it does not communicate or convey some definite impression from the creator to the mind of another, the whole purpose is necessarily lost. The failure to clearly understand this is the basis of all freak art. We all have our own mental short-hand which is a great help in the complicated processes of thinking, but naturally means nothing to anyone but ourselves. When a dog barks he is undoubtedly expressing himself, but unless the listener understands the language of the dog, of what possible use is the expression? When a creative writer, be he poet or otherwise, has some thought or expression to convey, there is only one possible way in which it can be done—and that is through the use of the commonly accepted symbols of language in their correct • meaning and correct order. Therefore my opinion of Miss Stein's poetry coincides with ©he Wijtatltttfl Tea House and Gift Shop LUNCHEONS AFTERNOON TEAS SUPPERS Private dining room for luncheons and dinners such as you would give in your own home.

Gert's writings are bunk, Ep's statues are punk, And I don't think I understand Ein! Mr. Guiterman is the rare type of human that is sincerely interested in almost anything. He talks as though he was convinced that his listener is too, and a conversation with him is inspiring. He never talks "at" you—he talks "with" you, and though you may know yourself vastly inferior intellectually and far beneath him in knowledge of the subject at hand, you are never allowed to feel so in his presence. Though he is known to thousands for his very funy verse, relatively few people know that he has written and is still writing much serious work considered by critics as some of the best contemporary poetry.

(Continued on page 7) WHY YOU CAN LIVE LONGER IN FLORIDA Once again the extreme cold of the Northern States is turning the eyes of millions of people toward the pleasant moderate climate of Florida. To some the urge is one of a vacation for sport, but to the great majority there is an increasing interest in the theory that coming to Florida for the winter months means a longer life. This theory was ably expressed in a decalogue of ten points by Dr. John I-Iarvey Kellogg, noted health authority of Battle Creelc1. Read "five of them, enough to convince;1 1. Half of our diseases are house maladies, produced by lack of contact with the sun and out-of-door air. Continuous out-of-door living day and night is easily possible in Florida. 2.

There will be modifications and changes in order to meet new conditions as the entire plan develops, but in the end Rollins will look very much as the architect has visualized it here. The most pressing needs in the development of the plan for the new Rollins call for the construction of the library, a new Commons, a student- faculty club, and dormitory units. The plan envisioned for the new Rollins calls for an artistic grouping of building's showing a Spanish-Mediterranean influence in architecture. The completed project will include four main group divisions spread over the forty-six acres on the shores of Lake Virginia. The center section includes the instructional buildings such as the chemistry, English, physics, library and art buildings, at the left end of the campus men's dormitories, and at the opposite end the women's. Opposite the educational division it is planned to,place such departments and buildings as an art institute, auditorium, a museum, etc. On the shore is space for a gymnasium and an athletic field. To complete the entire plan, it is estimated that at leas $4,000,000 will be required. A the extreme left of the proposed layout is the power-house. The campanile tower, at the round end of what is known as the horse-shoe, surmounts the library-to-be. The gymnasium is at the left of the library, and the Annie Russell Theatre and Knowles Memorial Chapel are in the left foreground. At the right of the theatre and chapel are auditorium, the museum, the art buildings and the music conservatories. A unique feature of the new plan calls for connecting the buildings by means of loggias or cloisters so that, when completed, Rollins will look like a medieval walled city, complete in itself. Although Rollins is still a long way from the completion of what was once a "dream," it is encouraging to reflect that five units have The Qown Shoppe of WINTER PARK Represents the culmination of our experience in presenting high class apparel.

Mrs. H. Von Gal acted as interlocutor to the row of minstrels who regaled the audience with many a clever wise-crack and sentimental song. As a contrast a group of Art Songs was offered by Mrs. Charles F. Hammond which included "To Sylvia", Schubert, "The Second Minuet" by Besley, and "Zueignung,,1 Strauss, and as an encore "The Waters of the Minnetonka." She was accompanied at the piano by her daughter Miss Sally, a student at Rollins.

ROGERS' "JOLLY ROGER" WINS FIRST RACE (Continued from page 1) 3:20. Gamble Rogers was first across the line with his "Jolly Roger" and, with his usual good seamanship and a breeze to his liking, stayed out in front all the way. The fleet was well bunched on the first and second legs of the course. Bill Brant, with his dory, "Meander," took second place on the second lap of the course, and Bud Coleman capsized his sneak-box, "Hoyden." The race was hard-fought all the way, with "Meander" finishing second, and Miss Jane Willard finishing third after a nice race in her moth class, "Mercedes." Fleet- Captain Foster was forced out on the second lap by a broken rudder. The participants enjoyed the race so much that another will be sailed over the same course Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Entries are invited and an invitation has been extended to the Central Florida Yacht Club to bring up some of their boats. Some snipe class ships are expected to cross the starting line. Fleet-Captain Foster and the Regatta Committee are in charge of the event. The Winter Park Boat Club held its initial meeting Tuesday evening, Feb. 15th. A constitution prepared by B. R. Coleman, E.

Akin, secretary; Dr. A. A, Kent, treasurer; D. E. Foster, fleet captain, and Dr. H. E. Osterling, fleet surgeon. We have noted several times how impressed visitors to Winter Park have been when they see the Annie Russell Theatre and the Knowles Chapel. Such buildings are rather a novelty in Florida. People expect to see attractive hotels, and we have them here, but they are unprepared for such a vista of architectural splendor and loveliness. It can be safely assumed that these buildings are making extremely favorable impressions on people of culture and importance which will eventually lead to their making their homes here.

MARTIN TELLS OF HITLER REGIME Dr. John Martin, authority on international affairs and political economy, used "Hitler and the Nazi Government" as his subject before a large audience of Winter Park people at the Congregational Church last Tuesday morning. The difficulty of giving an unbiased and uncolored account of the conditions in Germany today was mentioned by Dr. Martin because the mere recital of true facts must tend toward a feeling of hostility. He said that Adolph Hitler is today the undisputed master of Germany and is applauded by ninety per cent of the population. All aspects of democracy and constitutional freedom as we understand them have been blotted out and self-government is considered by Hitler as mis-government. ST. PATRICK'S DANCE AT WOMEN'S CLUB A St. Patrick's dance is being planned by the Women's club for the evening of March 17th at the club house, and though the date is still fairly distant much interest is centered in the affair. In the past few years the club has had few dances, but following the success of the Christmas dance this year so many requests were received from members for a "repeat" that it was decided to have three dances during the season, the first to be held on March 17th. The dances will be for members of the club and their families and students of Rollins college and the Winter Park high school. Mrs. Harry Kelly is chairman of arrangements for the party and will be assisted by a committee of prominent club members. Tickets may be obtained from any member of the committee.

HENNESSY, Mgr. What is a Lite Annuity? A Life Annuity is a contract which makes positive financial provision for your future—an assured, fixed, non-fluctuating monthly income guaranteed to continue as long as you live. An Equitable Life Annuity is a form of income guaranteed by a great mutual life insurance company with a long record of public service involving hundreds of millions of dollars. An Equitable Life Annuity is an attractive income - producing plan yielding a nuich greater return than could be obtained from any conservative investment because the return on a Life Annuity is "sweetened" by the return to the purchaser each month of part of his principal as well as interest earned. An Equitable Life Annuity is freedom from financial worry in a broad sense and to a far-reaching degree. With such a Life Annulity there are no maturity dates of bonds and mortgages to watch, no property to keep xip or to supervise, no complaints from tenants, no labor problems or troubles, no corporation reports to scrutinize, no investments to switch, no coupons to cut and cash, no safety deposit boxes to visit, no ties to keep you from traveling to any part of the world — for The Equitable will see that your Annuity checks are sent anywhere you direct. An Equitable Life Annuity is an income plan for young men and women as well as those in advanced years. It can be purchased in a lump sum1 by the latter or with small yearly deposits by the former. It has many variations to suit individual requirements. One of its popular forms provides a return for husband and wife to continue as either shall FAIR-JUST live.

Thursday, March 1, 1934 Price 10 Gents FANNIE HURST RAVES OVER WINTER PARK By Marge Lockman, Seeing Fannie Hurst for the first time one immediately thinks of bright lights and fashionable and rather "ultra" gatherings—Palm Beach, Newport, Broadway. Miss Hurst in her manner, her dress and her personality, typifies the modern sophisticate in every sense of the word. Therefore one rather hesitated to ask her opinion of such a relatively quiet and conservative community as Winter Park. The answer might be—well, merely polite. But.Miss Hurst raved. A charming and quiet rave, but a rave nevertheless. In her deep attractive voice she told that it was her first visit to Florida and that heretofore Florida to her had meant two places—Palm Beach and Miami. She admitted that it was probably her own fault, but that just the same when she decided to come to Florida those were the only places she even thought of visiting. And then she came to Winter Park last week a few days early for her appearance on the Animated Magazine. "Three days in Palm Beach," Miss Hurst said, "and I decided I had seen all of Florida I cared to. Everything- there is overdone, exaggerated. The colors too bright, noises too loud, the sun-tanned backs too tan, the people too obviously trying to have a gay time. I grew dreadfully tired of watching pretty young women do imitation jui-jitsu on the beach for the benefit of movie cameras. Awful. After a few days of this the contrast of your Winter Park was breath-taking." "You people of Winter Park should rise up and bay to the moon," she said. "The world should know about such lovely places, I have not yet had enough time to fully see your town, but what I (Continued on page 5) TO CONTINUE FRENCH LECTURE COURSE Baron d'Estournelles de Constant, President of the Alliance Francaise and head of the department of French at Rollins College, will give a supplementary course of three lectures in French on the three modern poets, Arthur Rimbaud, Andre Gide and Paul Valery, beginning Thursday, March 8, at 3:45 p. m., at All Saints Parish House on Lyman Ave., Winter Park, and continuing on March 15 and 22 at the same hour and place.

I cannot begin to tell you what a delightful time I am having. It is no wonder that in such an atmosphere one should find so many people doing fine creative things in the world of literature and art." Asked if she could be quoted, the novelist replied, "Most decidedly. I shall be delighted." The conversation quite naturally drifted to women and the sphere they occupy in the world today and centered on what Mr. Hitler is attempting to do with the womanhood of his country by insisting that they return to the old days and concentrate on cooking, homemaking and child-bearing and leave the progress of arts, letters and business entirely in the hands of the men. "It is a great pity to struggle for years to take three steps forward only to be forced to take two steps backward," said Miss Hurst, "but it can be but a temporary condition. Women have fought too hard and too valiantly to achieve the place they now occupy in society to relinquish it without a fight. The fight has been so hard for the last three years due to the psychological effect of world-wide depression, that women are just a little tired; just a little winded after the long climb. There is at present a tendency, not only in Germany, but even in this country, for women to relax and mentally 'let go,' but I feel that it is just a breathing spell. They will come back, and with a bang. Women of today in this country are fortunate in having such a woman as Eleanor Roosevelt to look to for leadership. She is the greatest impetus for progress that we have." Because Miss Hurst has worked in all sorts of jobs from salesgirl to waitress, and has achieved outstanding1 success as one of America's foremost novelists, she knows the world from the seamy side up and the smooth side down. One feels that Fannie Hurst quite probably knows what she's talking about! Her latest novel, "Anitra's Dance," has just been completed.

A group of portraits by Mrs. Jewett was recently exhibited at the Fontainebleau exhibit in New York. SWISS EXHIBIT AT DICKSON - IVES A number of prominent Winter Parkians saw the Swiss exhibit at Dickson-Ives in Orlando Monday and were charmed by it. Prof. J. J. Pfister, of Rollins, stated to Winter Park Topics that it was one oi the most artistic and interesting displays shown here. The exhibition comprises the products of sixty-five Swiss home industries, including wood and ivory carving, handkerchiefs, embroideries., pottery, toys, children's dresses and hand woven linens. All the articles except some valuable museum pieces are on sale. In connection with the portraits Jean Jacques Pfister of the Rollins Art Department painted for the permanent collection of the Rollins Library (which were unveiled Saturday morning by the Rollins Alumni in the Pounders' Week program), Mi*. Pfister is showing a number of important paintings which have never before been exhibited in Florida. The portraits occupy the main wall of the gallery. Miss Lucy A. Cross was "Precursor of Rollins" and with Rev. Charles M. Bingham co-laborer was a pioneer in the founding of Rollins College. The portrait of Rev. Charles Grandison Fairchild, painted by R. H. McKelvey, was also unveiled, Rev. Fairchild having been president of Rollins from 1891 to 1895. Mr. Pfister's painting "Battered but Unbowed" is a lovely rather tonal painting of the old cypress trees in California near historic Monterey. Perhaps Mr. Pfister's most important painting in this small exhibition is "The Strange Forest," a picture of famous Signal Hill, Long Beach, oil fields, known as the richest in the world. The great canvas was painted in inspirational mood, with no lagging of interest as the artist was faithful to details of derrick, drum and last glows of a setting sun. This painting was originally shown in the Stendall Galleries, Los Angeles. One of Mr. Pfister's most successful and delightful landscapes is "Lake Virginia in Moonlight," with the clouds lighted by an invisible moon and Spanish moss draping the oaks into graceful line. The portrait of "Dr. Buell," unfinished, will be of interest to many of Winter Park who knew him as a part of the Rollins College campus, though not of the faculty. Mr. Pfister also shows "The Lone Eagle," a companion painting to his famous " 'We' at Daybreak," and "Autumn in New Hamphire."

II Fannie Hurst says she never knew any places in Florida but Palm Beach and Miami until she came to Winter Park for the "Animated Magazine." Now she is an enthusiastic admirer. Probably many others would repeat this experience. Miss Hurst is discriminating. The suicidal efforts of radio stations are nowhere more annoying than during the Saturday afternoon broadcasts of the Metropolital Opera Company. Some local station nearby ruthlessly chatters all through the afternoon making it impossible to enjoy the music. Such things diminish the popularity of the radio generally. / / — • The performance of "Death Takes a Holiday" was a splendid tribute to the dramatic department of Rollins. Well staged and effectively acted the play served as a most interesting entertainment for the noted visitors who were present. Richard Shattuek' voice,—rich, deep and ear satisfying, coupled to his powei'ful figure, gave the production an impressive realism. MOST PERFECT BOOK Addressing members of the Winter Park Women's Club at their meeting last Friday on "The Romance of the Book," Dr. Edwin O. Grover of the faculty of Rollins College used his own rare and valuable manuscripts to illustrate his talk. Interesting was Dr. Grover's statement that the Gutenberg Bible, the first type-printed book, was still considered the most perfect and beautiful book in the world. He attributed this fact to the passion for absolute perfection which Gutenberg felt for his work, and which is rarely displayed in our fast-moving modern times. Though the two chiefly concerned in the affair are probably pained and irritated, to say the least, Winter Park was afforded a chuckle last week over the marooning of Mr. and Mrs. J. Gamble Rogers on their island home in Lake Maitland. It seems that while Mrs. Rogers was attending a beach party at Titusville and Mr. Rogers was working in his home, a large and heavy oil truck attempted to navigate the small bridge connecting the Isle of Sicily with the mainland. Disaster immediately resulted for the truck, the bridge and Mr. and Mrs. Rogers. Both the Rogers' cars were on the island with Mr. Rogers and both the Rogers' dogs were on this side with Mrs. Rogers. The truck was on the bridge and the bridge was in the water. It was complicated and upsetting. Valiant neighbors came to the rescue, however, with the "loan" of a row-boat and an automobile and now Mr. and Mrs. Rogers are ferrying back and forth for their various activities. The only complication, according to Mrs. Rogers, occurs when she has to go somewhere after Mr. Rogers has crossed and left the ferry on the other side. It is not known just when the new bridge will be finished. SOCIETY ATTENDS "POP" EN MASSE Flags of all nations transformed Recreation Hall into a gay and colorful background for the bright costumes of guests attending the eighth annual benefit for the Winter Park Symphony Orchestra. About 400 socially prominent attended the party, arranged by Miss Mary C. Leonard, manager and founder of the orchestra. Feature of the evening was the grand march around the hall, following which prizes were awarded for the most outstanding costumes in various groups. The Italian peasant costumes worn by college girls who acted as waitresses were an added note of gaiety. Most of the guests were in costume, which this year were of all periods and all nations.

An Equitable agent showed Mr. Burdett how he could arrange to have (1) the proceeds of his insurance held on deposit by the company to provide a life income for his wife; and at the time of her death (2) the income continued in equal shares to his two daughters for life; and at the subsequent death of a daughter (3) her share of the deposit paid to her children.

"My memory of King Albert is as a great, good and kind man rather than a king," stated Dr. Rosalie Morton, who met the king several times in her capacity as Commissioner of the American Red Cross during the war. "He was a beloved ruler, but more than that he was the man that every Belgian looked to as his greatest friend. No one who knew him during the great war will ever forget his heroic and unswerving interest in his suffering people, without thought of self. His death is a great loss to humanity." Gen. Avery D. Andrews, who is wintering at the Lincoln Apartments, was assistant chief of the general staff under Gen. John J. Pershing and was in Europe throughout the length of the war. 'Though I did not personally know the King," the General said, "his great influence could not help but be felt. He was one of the great heroes of the war and will be remembered always as one of the best beloved monarchs of history." The Order of Leopold was conferred by King Albert on the late Mr. A. T. Aldis, of Winter Park, for the relief work he, as head of a committee of prominent Americans, did for war-devastated Bel- • a HIGH QUALITY BUT NOT HIGH PRICES Hardly a day passes that some customer does not tell us our prices are lower than similar articles cost elsewhere.

The value of a Symphony Orchestra in a community is just now being publicized most effectively in New York City where a campaign is under way to raise funds to save the great Philharmonic by a campaign similar to that for the Metropolitan Opera. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler stated that in his opinion this organization was the most important asset the city possessed, that without music and the fine arts our "civilization as we know it and are proud of it would not exist." For Winter Park to have an orchestra of the quality and size of this organization is little less than a miracle. Consider the endless number of cities throughout the country that never have had anything more than a "band" and shut off from hearing the great masterpieces of music except by proxy. By proxy, I mean the radio and the phonograph, both of them important factors in the spread of musical appreciation. But an orchestra is a wonderful, living thing. It is a great group of artists, all of them subordinating their claims to individual recognition so that the spirit of music may sing through them and carry its message of beauty into the hearts of the people. Would that some modern Lucca Delia Robia might give us a sculpture of the playing orchestra as he has the famous frieze of the chor- (Continued on page 7) MARIA THERESA TO DANCE MARCH 14th Miss Annie Russell, director of the Annie Russell Theatre at Rollins College, announced today that Madame Maria Theresa's postponed dance recital will be given Wednesday evening, March 14.

LUBOSHUTZ - GOLDOVSKY GARDEN CLUB HOLDS JOINT RECITAL CHARMING EXHIBITION Lea Luboshutz, one of the extraordinary violin virtuosos that Russia has launched into the concert world, will be heard in a joint recital with Boris Goldovsky, pianist, in the Annie Russell Theatre at Rollins College, Monday night, March 12. At the age of six she was appearing in public and at sixteen she had graduated from the Moscow Conservatory of Music and was well on toward wide recognition throughout Europe. She made a brief visit to America for a special appearance with the Russian Symphony Orchestra and returned for further continental tours, still in her teens. Soon afterward, winning a monetary prize in a competition among violinists in Moscow, she retired for a time from concert work to study with Eugene Ysaye. Following her work with this great master she was heard all over Europe for the next four years, (Continued on page 4) GARDEN CLUB HOLDS CHARMING EXHIBITION Judges were confronted with a hard task in attempting to select winners in the various groups at the Garden Club Flower Show last Tuesday. Members of the club outdid themselves to make the display one of the loveliest ever seen in Winter Park. Mrs. J. E. Spurr was general chairman of the show. A Spanish patio arranged on the stage by Mr, and Mrs. Eugene R. Shippen, mantle arrangements by Mrs. R. B. Barbour and Mrs. George L. Noyes and a section of a Florida garden in the center of the auditorium, planted by M. B. Foster for Mrs. A. M. Harris and Mrs. Louise C. Goss were features of the show. A delightful tropical tea room was arranged by Mrs. J. J. Bell, and refreshments were sold by Mrs. Howard Showalter.

"An unusually cold winter in the North, political unrest that had kept people from making their usual visit to Cuba, a dollar devaluation that had made the Riviera too expensive, all contributed to this second blooming," says the Timewriter in March 5th issue, and seizing a graphic Biblical simile,—"Last week she (Florida) felt that her seven lean years were over." It is no secret that there are certain factors present for the revival of interest in Florida real estate. First of all there are more people in the state now than ever before in its history. "One day last week," quoting Timewriter again, "while blizzards were freezing the North, 75,000 people baked on Miami Beach, three times the peak number reported in 1926."—"But what made Florida's pulse beat fastest was the fact that real estate transactions had tripled since 1933 and for the first time since 1926 there was a real demand for acreage." An air of expectancy has been hovering around real estate offices ever since the news came out of Miami that all building records had been surpassed there in January. It was recalled that the original boom started in Miami. Many other favorable factors have been injected into the situation and apparently it is only a question of time when the nor- (Continued on page 5) ROLLINS HONORS FRENCH IN FLORIDA Addresses in French recounting the 370th anniversary of the founding of Fort Caroline on the St. Johns and the achievements of French pioneers in Florida will feature, the annual dinner of les Alliances Francaise Saturday evening in the Virginia Inn as one of the events of the French celebration sponsored by Rollins College this coming week-end.

WINTER PARK TOPICS, FRIDAY, MARCH 9, 1934 Page Three WHAT PRICE GLORY By Marge Lockman A mother hen fussing over her' baby chicks? Why she's just a piker at motherhood compared to the harassed and worried "mothers" anxiously tending their loved ones at the Garden; Club Flower Show this week. You can't cluck at flowers, and you can't pat them or administer a well-placed spank when they misbehave, but you can do just about everything else. And do those "mothers" do it! They love 'em and they feed 'em for days before the show and then they dress 'em up. You can't dress flowers? Don't you ever believe it. You go to the next flower show. No rich dowager presenting daughter at court worries one bit more about daughter's wardrobe than these proud and harried parents. Not as much, because she can' pretty safely assume that daughter will manage to last through the performance intact. Not so, with these fond mammas. After all their fussing and fitting and feeding, mamma still can't be sure that the little darling won't keel over and go out like a light half way through the show. It's an awful strain on mamma. And it's not only a matter of wardrobe—one has one's associates and one's background to consider. Mamma spends days fixing blonde and languishing Rosie all up in pale pink and pale white, with many admonishings to be a lady and not forget her station in life and for heaven's sake keep your chin up! Rosie is escorted to the party by mamma, the chauffeur, the maid if mamma has one, papa, if he can take it (most of them can't), and an aspirin tablet, Or two. Then it's discovered that the only place left for Rosie to stand is right beside that horrid Calendula child from down the street, whose mamma has HER all trimmed up in nice vital orange with plenty of bright green! You can see what it does to Rosie. Yesterday's lettuce isn't in it. But does it shatter mamma, after all she's been through? Or maybe it's Mrs. Calendula that gets shattered. 'It's all a matter of strength of character and quickness on the draw. In spite of all. the near-nervous collapses, it all gets straightened out somehow, (with the assistance of ten other mammas and a kind fate!) and the dear young things all look pretty splendid. And then the mammas come into their own. They beam. All over the place. They just don't believe they ever saw a handsomer, healthier looking bunch of sweet young things. Of course, mamma thinks her Rosie has just a shade on. all the other debs, but of course she wouldn't dream of 'mentioning it—not to more than twenty or thirty people. As she says to Mrs. Calla, there's just no sense in making the other poor things feel badly. They try hard. It's not their fault they can't all be like her Rosie.' You think after an afternoon of this they can go home and just give up? And leave Rosie down, there by herself all night? Why the child hasn't been away from mamma a minute since it saw the light of day, Even if they harden their hearts enough to leave them, there's still plenty to be done. Rosie has to have her supper. And by this time, she needs it. Mamma slips her a quinine tablet and a dose of rubbing alcohol (no, children, she doesn't rub it on her, she puts it in her bath!) to help her through the long hard night. The quinine is to stave off a chill just in case, and the alcohol—oh, well. Rosie may have a hangover in the morning, but mamma figures she might just as well be good and limp as just half way. All the fond parent can do then is tuck Rosie up for the night, remind her again to keep her chin up, and hope for the best. If Rosie is a good girl and has lots of poise and personality, not to mention stamina, all through the show, she may take home a blue ribbon. About two inches long and an inch wide. And mamma frames it. Go on, laugh if you want to. But you better laugh softly while you live in Winter Park. You may be a "mother" yourself some day!

Her name quickly spread through the country, and as everyone knows she has from that time held a high place among the outstanding violin virtuosi on our concert platforms. Mme. Luboshutz has appeared as soloist with the New York Philharmonic, Philadelphia Orchestra, Chicago Symphony, Boston Symphony, Cincinnati Symphony, and San Francisco Symphony, and her numerous sonata recitals with Joseph Hofmann have particularly distinguished her as a violinist of superior attainments.

F. West, whose tall arrangement of large white callas and bright red gladioli in a matching red glass bowl attracted much attention; Mrs. W. H. Tappan, who used a handsome embroidered silk tapestry as background for white calla lilies in a spreading dull green bowl; and Mrs. L. J. Hackney, who used yellow gladioli, white calla lilies and white snapdragon in a large blue bowl. Of much attraction to visitors was the flower mart on the lawn, where flowers and garden instruments were sold by Mrs. Harry Oesterling.

While people come to Florida for the sunshine and to escape the cold, it is safe to say that few of them are immune from that microbe of interest in Florida real estate,—it has a magic in it that even Ponce de Leon's celebrated fountain cannot match. Winter Park Topics feels that it is timely to vary the usual round of lectures with a few words from our leading real estate men on a subject that is heavily loaded with possibilities. The editor has therefore asked for brief statements from six leading realtors of Winter Park and Orlando, Hiram Powers, Arthur Schultz of the Winter Park Land Co. H. B. Carleton, Henry C. Winslow, and W. W. Rose. is RIGHT NOW,—we know it — and you can be convinced, if there is any doubt in your mind. Think this over, then act. From Hiram Powers : Blind prejudice and cynical incredulity became the heritage of our boom in 1925. It has taken us eight years to regain reasonable confidence in the minds of the millions in the North who really need our Florida climate to survive the results of the depression. This past winter has been very severe and thousands have died who might have been saved had they come to Florida. Many of these actually had the means to come, but through ignorance of the facts, thought they could not afford it. The truth about Florida as it is today will prevail. The home seekers in ever increasing numbers are on their way. They will surely buy real estate. The depression will not stop them, nothing can stop them, so long as they are welcomed with service and integrity. I seem to hear the tramp of thousands seeking health and happiness. As for prosperity, that will take care of itself in time. If the people of Florida are wise, they will greet the homeseeker with the homestead exemption from taxation, reduction of the legal 8 per cent interest to 6 per cent, and use every possible means to encourage the creation of more homes and better government. From H. B. Carleton: For 46 years I have been trying to convince mv friends and clients here and elsewhere, that the basis of all wealth was real estate and they should at least own their own home as an anchor to windward to protect their family in case of hard times. In 1929 I ran full page ads. At my home in Michigan, "Don't Buy Wildcat Stocks,—Buy Real Estate." Many gave me the laugh at this advice, as they were making thousands,on paper, in the stock market. A doctor from Chicago stopping in Orlando, called on me recently and on leaving said: "I bought some resort lots from you in 1929 and built a $20,000 home. I wish I had bought more real estate as Mid-West stock cleaned me out." There has never been a time when you could buy a winter or allyear- around home anywhere as cheap as you can in Winter Park right now, in many cases for what the lot alone should bring,—in all cases, for much less than the improvements cost if the lot was given to you. If you prefer to build, at least buy a lot on some nice lake while they can be had practically at gift prices. The time to buy Florida property From Mr. Arthur Schultz, of the Winter Park Land Company: I have been asked to give my views in regard to the real estate situation as it exists in Winter Park today. I feel that there has never been a better time in the past twenty years to buy Winter Park real estate than at the present writing, the reason for this being that those people who own Winter Park properties and have held on to them through the depression will certainly not continue to hold them another year and then sell for less than they would have sold for at any time during the past three or four years during the depression. Another reason is that all kinds of skilled labor and building materials, on account of the NRA, have advanced in price from 25% to 35% and are continuing to advance each day, so that anyone who can buy a home on the basis of the old price is very foolish not to do so, provided of course that the home suits him and that the old price was not out of reason to start with. First class residential property in Winter Park is getting scarcer each day as the bargains in this particular line of real estate, are being picked up at a very rapid rate. Therefore, if anyone has any idea of investing in residential property in Winter Park any time in the near future it certainly seems to me that it is only common sense and sound reasoning that there will never be an opportunity to buy at such bargain prices as properties are being offered at the present time. From Henry C. Winslow, of Winslow and Western: You have asked me for my opinion as to the near future of real estate. I think it has not, been brighter in many years. The following reasons may convince you. 1. The Prudential and other national mortgage companies have either raised their prices or removed their properties from the market to be replaced later at higher prices. 2. Individual owners are already doing likewise. 3. The Home Owners Loan Corporation has already removed thousands of distress properties and bargains from the market. 4. The likelihood of the passage in November, 1934, of the Homestead Exemption Act, exempting all homesteads in Florida assessed un to $5,000 from taxation, and all others exempted to the same amount. 5. The probable passage of the Wilcox Bankruptcy law for municipalities. 6. Improved marketing and cooperation efficiency among farmers. Many people who want homes and are convinced that now is the time to buy but lack the nerve to back their judgment. Their imaginations are their worst enemies. They imagine all kinds of dire happenings and hesitate until the opportunity is past. This country was not built up by such people. Good judgment without nerve is useless. The future of real estate was never clearer. Respectfully yours, From Walter W. Rose: There are such definite indications of improvement in the real estate situation that even the most conservative investor is obliged to take notice. In the first place there is the uncontrovertible fact that there has been more activity in the last three weeks, more calls and inquiries for properties, than for the past seven or eight months. The public is showing real interest and a number of sales have been made at list prices. The deflation of the dollar at once challenges the investor with the question of what kind of property has the most enduring value and he can hardly escape the conclusion that it is real estate. The fears that have been hanging over realty are becoming less of an obstacle because of the new measures like the Wilcox bill and the home exemption act. The former is assured of passage in Congress and will at once relieve the uncertainty with regard to the refunding of bond issues by towns, cities and counties, It provides for readjustment of the community lien if 75 per cent of the bondholders agree on a reduction. Homestead exemption is a Florida contribution to the relief program, exempting $5,000 from tax, whether it is on a small property valued at $5,000 or a big one which would get the benefit of that amount of reduction. Nineteen states have put through legislation to broaden the tax base Page Five and relieve real estate from its excessive burden. Florida will do likewise at the next session of the legislature. Add to these considerations that there are more people in Florida this year than at any time of the boom, that building in Miami Beach has exceeded any previous record, that all of the accommodations erected in Florida during the boom are. now fully occupied, amounting to at least one-third more than in 1925, and still people are being turned away,—you have in this picture the essentials of a basic movement that will surely carry real estate to new high levels. Properties around Orlando and Winter Park are desirable from every point of view, whether for occupation or investment, and the majority of them are still at the low prices of the depression. It will take only a little budge for the whole price structure to gain a momentum and those who hesitate now at prices will find substantial increases in the near future.

GARDEN PARTY A CHARMING EVENT Azalea Gardens on the shore of Lake Maitland appeared like a page from a colorful fairy tale last Saturday afternoon when the annual garden party was held there. Always a lovely spot, a perfect warm day and a smiling sun made the place one of breath-taking loveliness. Even the birds seemed to feel the spirit of the day and conducted a program all their own. Glimpses of boats sailing on the lake could be seen through the vista of tall pines and the palms. Crimson and rose azaleas in profusion met the eye in all directions. Soft strains of music filled the air and drifted out over the lake. The arranging of chairs in a semi-circle on the street side of the gardens formed a perfect natural theatre, and the program was presented before a group of trees and flowering azaleas. Miss E. Ethel Enyart, president of the Garden Club of Winter Park, introduced Judge Hackney, who gave a short talk on the Azalea Gardens and how they were first started a few years ago. Highlight of the afternoon was the soaring dance presented by Barbara Parsons, Helene Keway, .Sally Hammond, Elizabeth iiilis and Marcella Hammond, of Mme. Scott Fanelli's class of dancing.

Jimmy Gondy's snipe class sloop also ran and is expected to sail the next race well up among the leaders. The first water fete of the club last Friday night was a colorful event, with twenty or-more decorated boats participating, including the two war canoes from Rollins College.' A break in the weather was favorable and there were no collisions to mar the evening. After slowly cruising around Lake Oseeola the squadron separated under the gleam of the aerial bombs.. The second regular, meeting of the club will be held at 8 o'clock on Tuesday evening, the 13th, at the Alabama Hotel annex. A shipwreck cruise on Lake Maitland is planned for the near future.

Impressions of Symphony Concert (Continued from page 1) -isters, a masterly portrayal of the energy that goes into artistic performance. Our Winter Park orchestra is unusually interesting in personalities. These amateurs (most of them, I believe, are amateurs) have an advantage over the professional who has come to take his music as so many pages to be played,—they have a keener excitement in their effort, more anxiety over the performance as a whole, more thrill when the music is unquestionably gripping them and their audience. As I look over their faces I delight to read how each one, so different from any other, is bringing his ego into conformity with the ideal conception that the composer has made for them to reveal. As Mr. Harve Clemens readily agrees, an orchestra is a most absorbing psychological study because of this great variety of individualities which the conductor must fuse into one expressive whole, so it becomes one soloist. For only then can the orchestra "sing," as Toscanini expresses it. But to the program: Beethoven's Egmont Overture, a rugged storm of music, throbbing with the titanic energy that Was so characteristic of him, well played, the finale with a truly masterful sweep. These concert overtures, as they are known, were the precursors of the more modern symphonic poem, of which one of the most famous concludes this program, "Les Preludes" by Liszt. So these overtures are rightly taken with vigor and dramatic style. Mme. Sundelius gave the plaintive song of the King of Thule and the brilliant Jewel Song from Faust in the style that many seasons at the Metropolitan would lead her audience to expect, and she was heartily applauded. The Espana Rhapsody of Chabrier was excellently played, being well within the easy mastery of the players. This was one of the numbers in which the orchestra truly "sang." Grieg's two songs for strings,— The Last Spring, a song of haunting beauty, played with charming nuance and delicacy. "Les Preludes," often called a "war horse" for star conductors,—but a work that always finds favor at orchestral concerts. It is the true essence of Liszt, master interpreter, glorious artist but not equally impressive in the matter. A massive personality speaks through these sweeping chords, dazzling harmonies and blazing climaxes. The orchestra met Conductor Clemens' demands and carried off the work triumphantly. Altogether a very enjoyable concert, showing much progress in ensemble playing over the previous one and challenging a greater appreciation and a more numerous attendance. And, as might end every article about the orchestra:—Thanks to Miss Leonard, its organizer and good angel. THE EQUITABLE F A I R - J U S TLIFE ASSURANCE SECURITY-PEAC6 OF MIND He even tucked his grandchildren into the policy . . . John Burdett wanted to take care of the financial security of his wife, his daughters and his grandchildren. This was a somewhat unusual problem, yet a solution was found through the Equitable Case Method of life insurance planning. An Equitable agent showed Mr. Burdett how he could arrange to have (1) the proceeds of his insurance held on deposit by the company to provide a life income for his wife; and at the time of her death (2) the income continued in equal shares to his two daughters for life; and at the subsequent death of a daughter (3) her share of the deposit paid to her children. Very different from Mr. Burdett's wish may be your own. Perhaps ' you want to make certain that funds will be available for your son's or daughter's education, or to clear a mortgage on your home, or to provide security for your old age, But whatever your requirement, our Case Method can give you a scientific program to guarantee it.

(Continued on page 2) CORRA HARRIS SAYS CAN'T TEACH WRITING By Marge Lockman In these hectic modern times of ours when many of us tend toward a polite and puerile superficiality, particularly in our conversation, an interview with Corra Harris, 1ovelist and columnist, is apt to leave one gasping. The refreshing and lung-filling gasp that follows a plunge into cold, clear water and leaves one glowing all over. And feeling much better. There is a total lack of futile and unnecessary words in her conversation, and she has that rare faculty of immediately getting down to "brass tacks" and making the "brass tacks" of life seem pretty alluring at the same time. If she were a man Corra Harris would be called a square shooter. What she has to say she says forcefully and with great sincerity. That is the keynote "of her personality. A sincerity with self, with life, and with other people. A person that you can depend on. One feels that Corra Harris would be a splendid person to have around in times of stress and trouble. Even meeting her for the first time, you feel an urge to call her "pal." In the most complimentary sense of that word. She's an "old lamb"—I'm not being presumptive, because that is what she is affectionately called by her intimates and throngs of admiring acquaintances everywhere. And she loves it. That sums her up as well as it can be done by any few words. Just an old lamb—but an "old lamb" with a very keen, straight-forward mind and a very definite personality. In short Corra Harris is a thoroughly delightful person. Because I visited Mrs. Harris for the express purpose of getting her opinion on questions relating to writing and literature, we quite naturally talked of those two subjects. She feels that the fiction (Continued on page 7) WILL ROGERS BRIDGE GET CHRISTENED? Agitation is rife in Winter Park for the J. Gamble Rogers to have champagne and a pink ribbon for the proper dignitary to cut, at the formal opening and christening of the new bridge between the main land and the Isle of Sicily when that structure is completed some time in the next few days. In the opinion of persons in a position to know, the oil truck that attempted to cross the bridge some weeks ago, without satisfactory results, really did the town a favor. Just as the Chicago fire was pretty disastrous for those immediately concerned and at the same time the best thing that ever happened to Chicago by way of "civic betterment," so the over-ambitious truck has been the largest factor, decidedly, in the replacement of the old and tired bridge with a new and modern one. Questioned, Mr. Rogers stated that he knew of no champagne in Winter Park and that he did not care for pink ribbons or dignitaries either, but it is felt that public opinion may be too strong for him. At present he and Mrs. Rogers have graduated from the ferry and are navigating a six-inch plank from island to mainland. Mr. Rogers' business is still being con ducted with the assistance of borrowed automobiles.

Fleischman, head of the dramatic art department, has announced, The play, which was written by George S.

YALE IN FLORIDA FOR SPRING HOLIDAY At this season of the year when a few of our winter visitors are" starting back to the North there is one small but enthusiastic crowd that is heading south to Florida. Yale University in New Haven is out for spring vacation and it would be no exaggeration to say that a good half of the lads are either on the way or here already. Winter Park is generally included in the itinerary, for Rollins and Yale are old friends and the Yale boys like to see how the "other half" lives. The Yale Glee Club, recently winners of the Eastern Intercollegiate crown, is scheduled to give a concert at the Annie Russell Theatre on Saturday, March 31. This organization is one of the finest in the country and includes much talent. The Howard twins, piano soloists of the club, are already famous in Northern amateur circles and plan a stage and radio career.

SUBSCRIBE TO WINTER PARK TOPICS TRADE FOR PEACE' SAYS SENATOR 'HAM' LEWIS (Continued from page 1) really needed. Then, in our own generosity and charity, let us buy those supplies from our own people, from our own factories and farms, and send those supplies to the nation in need of them, instead of sending them money. In this way, we serve the needy, we are faithful to humanity, and we prevent nations from buying armaments with our own money, and we stop countries from preparing for war against us with our own finances. "In this way we shall be carrying out the Franklin D. Roosevelt- William H. Taft policy of 'trade for peace'." "It just happens," contended the Illinois statesman, "that the U. S. now, under Roosevelt's administration, becomes the only country in the world that, instead of threatening for peace and condemning lands that are increasing armaments, proceeds to buy peace by paying for it and to buy disarmament by paying for it. "The U. S. is doing this in the proposed trade treaties now being tendered by President Roosevelt to the countries of the 'world, serving to inform them that their profits from the trade offers he makes in the U. S. can be enjoyed only by using the money expended for trade, instead, of armaments. In this way, President Roosevelt is pointing the way to riches and prosperity for the people of the nations which, will benefit from the trade treaties and at the same time maintain peace."

BURCHARD WILL LECTURE TUESDAY "Lazy Days in England in the Nineties" is the subject o:f the lec ture to be given next Tuesday night, March 27, by Lewis S. Bur chard, prominent winter resident of Winter Park, in the Annie Rus sell Theatre at Rollins ·College. The lecture, to be delivered at 8:15, wlil be free. Mr. Burchard was to have spoken last Tuesday evening but gave up his evening so that Senator J. Hamilton Lewis could be heard in Winter Park, RANDOM NOTES Champagne glasses are once more interesting, and we have them right here in Winter Park. Mrs. Packei·, who has the Rialto Gift Shop, held a delicate stemmed French cut glass in her hand and explained that such things are again being called for. In her charming shop, which has become quite an institution in Winter Park, Mrs, Packer has many unique things that appeal to women and, -by proxy to their men folk. Of the many necessities which -winter visitors from the North buy in the local shops they are most particular about their shoes. It is very pleasing for them to find in Orlando a shoe store where they can get a recognized shoe of national reputation, the Walk-Over, and find a full line of styles in all sizes. The Walk-Over shop is owned and operated by experienced shoe men who are local residents and taxpayers in Orange County. Just by chance the other day I came upon a charming little house with a garden of that quaint intimate sort of beauty that we associate with old New England towns. It was the "Windsor Chair," an antique shop, just a few steps across the Dixie Highway from famed old Altamonte Hotel, where General Grant used to sit and smoke on the front porch. Here were Cherokee white roses clambering over the palms, vine star jasmine surging over the dormers and low porch eaves,—and a fern edged pool. On the cosy porch were displayed interesting hooked rugs and chairs of old time, colored glass, tip tables, and other treasures that the antique collector appraises with knowing eye,—but withal there was a homey air to the place that enhanced their value to the visitor, For several years the "Windsor Chair" has been here, managed by Mrs. Earlah Smith, who has a shop at Willoug'hby Lake, Vermont, in the snmmer. She has many fine pieces in maple and pine, dressers, banister and fan-back Windsors, kitchen cabinets, tavern tables and all, and there is no doubt that Winter Parkers would find a visit very interesting and enjoyable.

The Modern Library now contains 215 titles, of which more than 1,000,000 copies were sold last year at 95c a copy. One of the latest additions is Pearl Buck's "The Good Earth." * * * An advertisement in a recent issue of a German booksellers magazine reads as follows: "Why must it be American or English? We have exciting books. No translations of English and American night-life literature, no sultry sexual perversities and novels of adultery, no mad, nerve-irritating thrillers. No, we have what the people want. Good German home-cooking." Which means what? * * * English publishers issued 15,022 different books during 1933, of which 4,089 were fiction. With all our boasted public education and higher literacy, the United States published last year only 6,970 books of which 1,806 were fiction. However, if you wanted to be up-to-date you would have had to read five new novels a day for 365 days —or be behind the times. * * * Dr. Burris Jenkins, who was a "contributor" to the Rollins Animated1 Magazine two years ago, has just published a novel called "Hand of Bronze," which promises to rank -with Lloyd Douglass' best seller, "Magnificent. Obsession," as a study of life in the United States in 1934. * * * When William Lyon Phelps calls "The Unforgotten Prisoner," by R. C. Hutehinson, "A consummate work of art and its effect like a shout of joy," one has to take notice. In England the book sold 12,000 copies the first day of publication. It has been called "A magical book of great nobility of spirit," after the manner of "The Fountain." * * * Charles Dickens' "Life of Our Lord," written for his children 85 years ago, which is now being serialized in newspapers throughout the English speaking world, will be published in book form in this country on May 15 by Simon & Shuster. The story runs only 14,000 words — about the same length as Dickens' "Christmas Carol." The world rights brought $15 a word or a total of $210,000. * * • The first edition of "Look to the Lightning1," Gilbert Maxwell's book of distinguished poetry, is already out of print and will shortly become "scarce." If you have a copy of this first edition don't let it get away for it is likely to prove a good "investment." YEATS PRAISED AT POETRY SOCIETY Stating that she considered William Butler Yeats to be the greatest poet living today because he was largely responsible for the "racialization" of Ireland and the re-birth of Irish culture, Jessie Rittenhouse Scollard gave an enlightening talk on the life and works of Yeats before a large audience of the Poetry Society of Florida last week. The meeting was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Martin on Lake Virginia. Mrs. Scollard traced the Irish national movement from early times to the present and explained the influence of the writings of many other poets on this movement, culminating in the work of Yeats. She told of the early life and education of the poet and of how he became associated with the Gallic League movement, a group advocating the return by the Irish to the original language of old Erin. He resurrected many of the old Irish myths and legends and made them into beautiful folk poetry. It is felt that the poet's work along these lines had great influence in bringing about the Irish national movement, and in giving to the Irish people the freedom that they enjoy today. Having known the poet personally, Mrs. Scollard gave a delightful vignette of the man himself, and told of a dinner given for him in New York some years ago by the Poetry Society of America, which she was largely instrumental in arranging. Dr. George Meason Whicher, long head of the English department of Hunter College in New York, and for many years the head of the American Academy of Rome, read selections from his own work. Contributed poetry for this meeting was read by Dr. Earl Fleischman, of the drama department of Rollins College.

Morse Boulevard Telephone 140 VISITOR COMPLAINS OF SMALL AUDIENCE In a highly complementary letter written to and published by the Orlando Sentinel, Mr. John Henry Hopkins, who is stopping at the Lincoln in Winter Park, took occasion to complain of the small audience that attended the concert of the Symphony Orchestra in the Orlando Auditorium last Monday evening. Writes Mr. Hopkins: "Your visitor wonders why the attractive auditorium was not crowded. It is something very unusual to find so fine an orchestra with such high class programs, in any but the largest centers of population. Orlando and Winter Park can tell people in New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago, that a winter in Orange County will not deprive them of real pleasures so far as the best orchestral music is concerned. You probably have known all this for some time. Your visitors will be glad to know it, as they explore the delights of a winter in Orange County, Florida." In Winter Park our orchestral concerts are well attended but there is always room for more, and there is unquestionably a need for wider appreciation of the unusual musical opportunity which this excellent orchestra under Mr. Clemens' direction affords us. We need to have more missionary work done in behalf of musical culture and it would be a good idea to plan a definite program along this line. Let the Chambers of Commerce in both Winter Park and Orlando include music in their salesmanship for the community welfare. CORRA HARRIS SAYS CAN’T TEACH WRITING (Continued from page 1) of the past quarter century has improved vastly over the preceding years, and says so, emphatically. Asked how she felt young people with a natural ability to write could best be taught and instructed, Mrs. Harris replied that it was not possible to teach anyone to write. "They may be taught the mechanics of literary construction," she elaborated, "but there does not live in this world anyone who can teach another the mystery of putting life, and the illusive quality of life into words. The best critic for any author is his own sense of veracity; his own power to produce the illusion of reality; and his ability to detect for himself the fact that he failed to do it. Then comes the final test—whether he has the patience, genius, or whatever you may call it, to work on that paragraph or that one little page until every word on it is as much alive as if blood flowed through it instead of ink." "I think our modern writers of fiction far surpass those of twentyfive years ago in producing a veracious psychology of life. They are better artists when it comes to interpretation and the portrayal of natural scenery. I have just been reading this morning "South Moon Under," by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings. It is a wonderful work of art—it is more than art. It is a transcript of life itself—luminous, dingy, tragic, sweet, and compelling. I have not yet read far enough to discover whether she fogs this negative of life and loveliness and plain homely truthfulness, with the toxin of sex." "I do hope not. For sex is not really a poison. It is an enchanting convenience of nature by which life is propagated and it should not be subsidized to the lewd interpretations of corrupt minds. I think there is an effort today to cleanse and dignify literature and I have no doubt at all but that we have before us a future in literature far beyond anything that has ever been accomplished. I am for every writer who makes an honest effort to portray all that is good in a manner to make it better if they can." Corra Harris is an ardent disciple of the plan which Rollins College pursues in the education of American youth. "I believe it is the pioneer effort of a brave group of teachers to reform and vitalize education," she stated, "and the bravest among them is Hamilton Holt. A man who can portray the beauty of courage, hope and faith in the lives of others; an impossible thing to accomplish if he had not already achieved it in his own life." "The time is at hand when thoughtful men and women recognize him as a leader in the finest culture. By that I mean the culture which fits youth for the happier future now also at hand in their own country." Are you considering a real estate investment? See our ad on page 5, Winslow & Weston.

SHAW'S PLAN FOR IMPROVING CONGRESS Winter Park often gets the jump on the rest of the world because of the fact that leading authorities on national problems choose to tell their views here before they are published to the general public. At a recent meeting at the Women's Club Dr. Albert Shaw gave a preliminary exposition of his views on the improvement of Congress, a thesis: which will reach the reading public in the next issue of his magazine, "Review of Reviews." '. Dr. Shaw stated that Congress in its present form has outgrown its usefulness as far as constructive legislation is concerned. Under the present system of short terms of office, the congressman finds himself continually under pressure from lobbies, and finds it necessary to devote much of his time and thoughts to campaigning for re-election. "We have no wish to asperse congressmen as individuals," Dr. Shaw said. "Most of them would rather do their duty than turn yellow, and play the coward. But the average congressman loves his salary, his mileage, his perquisites, (Continued on page 6) ANENT THE MIAMI ART EXHIBITION Mrs. Jean Jacques Pfister and Mrs. Edith Tadd Little returned Monday from Miami, where they acted as hostesses at the Second Annual Exhibition of the Art Institute of Miami held at the Biltmore the past two weeks.

By Marge Lockman. Webster's New International dictionary uses approximately thirty words to define the word "publicity," and many, many more to make the word "advertising" clear to its readers. I have the temerity to state that a definition of both words may be given with the use of just two words comprising' fifteen letters. Those fifteen letters spell I-r-vi- n-g B-a-c-h-e-1-l-e-r. The State of Florida has, does, and will no doubt continue, to spend vast sums of money each year for the purposes of advertising and publicity. Likewise Winter Park, though quite naturally sums not-so-vast. Both have a necessary and a vital place in the scheme of things in these days of high-pressure competition even between cities and states. They are largely responsible for putting Florida "on the map" in the first place, and for keeping a picture of Florida in the mind's-eye of thousands, depression or no depression. Good publicity has convinced no one knows how many snow-bound Yankees that they might just as well go to Florida as to Bermuda, California(!), Cuba, Texas, the Riviera, or South America (check your own!) and its so much nearer, anyway! And we come back to Irving Baeheller, A "Florida-converted" Yankee.

WINTER PARK TOPICS AT NEWSSTANDS MACKEDON – JENNINGS Knowles Memorial Chapel will be the scene Saturday afternoon of the wedding of Miss Irene Mackedon, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Benson, of Spokane, Washington, and Mr. Asa W. Jennings, of New York and Winter Park. Dean Charles A. Campbell will officiate assisted by Dr. Hamilton Holt, president of Rollins College. Mr. Jennings is an alumnus of Rollins. Miss Evelyn Mackedcm, sister of the bride-to-be, will be maid of honor and Mrs. Richard Shannon, sister of the groom, will be matron of honor. Mr. Wilbur Jennings will officiate as best man, and Mr. Richard Shannon will give the bride away. The bride is a graduate of Washington State College, where she was active in extra-curricula activities and majored in fine arts. For the past three years she has lived in Chicago and studied at the Art Institute. She has been associated as commercial artist with an art studio for the past two years and has continued her studies at night classes at the Institute. Mr. Jennings, son of the late Asa Kent Jennings of World War fame, and Mrs. Jennings, -who makes her home in Winter Park, took his first two years of college work at Roberts College in Constantinople, where his father was engaged in post war reconstruction. He later came to Rollins, where he received his A. B. degree in 1930. Since graduating he has traveled the principal European countries and since the death of his father about a year ago has held the position of executive vice-president of the American Friends of Turkey, Inc., with offices in New York, previously occupied by his father. In June he will receive his doctor's degree in law at New York University. The wedding recalls to residents of Winter Park the story of the heroic work of the late Asa Kent Jennings, father of the groom, during the World War. Following the capture of Smyrna by the Turks in 1922, 300,000 Greek refugees were stranded in Smyrna and had to be transported to the coast of Greece within ten days to save them from the ravages of the Turks. Executing a rapid-fire communication with American warships in the vicinity and with the Greek government, who had hitherto apparently refused to be concerned with these 300,000 subjects, he had these ships placed under his orders, and sailed into the harbor of Smyrna on board one of them with a small American flag at the masthead. The Greeks were saved, and Mr. Jennings was affectionately termed the "Admiral of the Fleet." He was given the highest honors, both civic and military, that the Greek government can bestow, Following the war he remained in Turkey to assist reconstruction in that country. Friends of the bride and groom and of Mr. Jennings are cordially invited to attend the wedding which will take place at four o'clock in the chapel.

Dr. Andrew M. Brodie, of Washington, D. C., was the distinguished guest speaker at the morning services at the Congregational Church last Sunday. In the audience "was a former classmate of Dr. Brodie at the Chicago Theological Seminary, Mr. Frank L. Ferguson, of Orlando, the two men having been students there in 1886. Mr. Ferguson left that year to enter Yale, Dr. Brodie graduating at the Seminary and subsequently holding pastorates in Illinois and later in the East. In more recent years Dr. Brodie has been a power in the furtherance of world peace. Mrs. A. T. Aldis invited about forty friends to her home Saturday to hear Miss Katherine Bvarts read one one of Oscar Firkins' plays. Miss Evarts has been an actress and is a dramatic reader of ability. She has a summer camp at Brattleboro, Vt, where she trains students in dramatic art. While in. Winter Park Miss Evarts has been visiting her niece, Miss Katherine Ewing, of the Rollins College dramatic department. A program of songs will be given Sunday evening at the Virginia Inn by Mr. and Mis. Charles F. Hammond, soprano and baritone, accompanied at the piano by their daughter, Miss Sally Hammond, a student at Rollins Conservatory of Music. Severin Bourne returned from Augusta says: "It was my good fortune to witness a few of the matches at the new Augusta links and to see Bobby Jones play once more in competition. Grantland Rice, in commenting on Bobby's score and his attempt at a comeback, said: 'You know, Bobby can't be host and play golf, too.' Before Bob went out Sunday, I asked him how he felt about the match. He said: 'AH I can do is try my best and see that the others have a good time.' " Another match which Sev covered for the Herald Tribune was the finals in the 39th Annual Southern Cross Cup of the Palmetto Club championship. Lyman Wright, of New York and Paris, France, and Sev's father, Alfred SBourne, were finalists. Bourne was four down at the 9th in the 36-hole match and came back and won six of the next nine, finishing the morning round two up and came out and won the match three to two in the afternoon, victor for third time of this oldest tournament in the South. Mr. and Mrs. William Pelham, of Chicago, have taken an apartment at Barren Hall after visiting for some time with Mr. and Mrs. B. R. Coleman, Mr. and Mrs. Pelham will remain until July and expect their daughter, Miss Harriet Pelham, from Albany tomorrow to spend her Easter vacation here. The Rev. Dr. George L. Cady and Mrs. Cady, of New York, were guests last week-end of Mrs. Wtn. H. L. Odell on Virginia Court. Dr. Cady, as executive secretary of the American Missionary Association, is in Florida at this time on a lecture tour. Last Sunday evening he gave an illustrated lecture at the Congregational Church on "The Vanishing American," dealing with the American Indian, which was highly instructive and entertaining. He repeated the talk in Sanford Monday evening1 and again on Tuesday in Ocala. Dr. Cady will go from there to Tuskeegee, where he will lecture to the students of that institution. While in Winter Park Dr. and Mrs. Cady renewed acquaintance with Dr. Richard Wright, Mr. E. F. Cooley of Interlachen Ave., and others. Dr. Cady was Mrs. Odell's pastor at one time in Boston at the Pilgrim Congregational Church. YALE SINGS FOR WINTER PARKERS (Continued from page 1) Basil D. Henning, and other specialties.

ANENT THE MIAMI ART EXHIBITION (Continued from page 1) was the finest ever to have been held in Florida. During the two weeks it was estimated that from twelve to fifteen thousand people viewed the various exhibits which included four paintings by Mr. Pfister of Rollins: "Moonlight Over Lake Virginia," "Michigan Dunes and Birches," "In the Adirondacks" and "East River." Mr. Robert D. Gauley's canvas, "Spanish Shawl," was much admired, as was Howard Hilder's "Florida Landscape." Mr. Hilder's work is known in Winter Park, he having painted the drop curtain in the Annie Russell Theatre, and with Mr. Kiemel, the architect, was responsible for the beautiful facsimile in miniature of the theatre which was recently presented to Miss Russell by Mrs. Bok, the donor of the original building, Also of interest to local people is the fact that the president of the Institute, Mrs. A. E. Rickmers, is a sister-in-law of Alexander, the distinguished artist who painted the much admired portrait of Miss Russell as she appeared in a Shakespearean role. Mr. Henry Salem Hubbell, chairman of the exhibit and a member of the National Academy of Design, was represented in the show by his portraits of Ruth Bryan Owen and Raymond Robbin Ickes, son of the Secretary of the Interior. Mr. Hubbell has been commissioned to paint Secretary Ickes for the Government. The show closed Sunday night with a large studio party given by Mr. Hubbell which Mrs. Little and Mrs. Pfister attended. The two ladies were guests at the Biltmore during their stay in Miami.

If it doesn't tell you how to do it, it at least tells how it has been done from 73 B. C. to our latest and biggest_" the Roosevelt Revolution," which is now in progress. It is a vivid story which presents a panoramic view of twenty revolutions that have helped to make world history. * * * Fanny Hurst in introducing John Ersldne, who is "guest editor" of the March issue in "The Golden Book," thus cleverly describes him: "He is a best seller, a raconteur, a wit, an epicure, a Ph. D., a president of an international music school, an honorary citizen of Beaune, France, a Chevalier de la Legion d'Honneur, an executive of the American Council of Learned Societies, a poet, a hero (and heroine) worshipper, a traveler with a perpetual nostalgia for beauty left behind, and a zest for that ahead. A merry gentleman. A literary critic "with a mind in his heart and a heart in his mind. A lusty laughter. A devastator of ladies' clubs. A professional pianist in amateur's clothing. A fellow with a hungry heart and a greedy mind and an avid appetite for "beauty." Those who heard John Erskine when he appeared on the "Rollins Animated Magazine" three years ago will recognize the truthfulness of the above portrait. At a recent auction sale in NewYork City a single autograph letter of Edgar Allen Poe's brought $1800, while a page of manuscript of the "Star Spangled Banner" sold for $24,000. In her recent "Candlelit Column" which Corra Harris contributes, regularly to the Atlanta Journal, she pays a gracious tribute to President Hamliton Holt and Rollins College under the title "Pioneering in Education." She refers to President Holt as "the slave driver for idealism" and calls attention to the fact that his plans for Rollins College "have emerged and taken shape, both culturally and architecturally. The ideals for which he contended have become truth and facts which no man can longer deny." In speaking of the Knowles Memorial Chapel Mrs. Harris wrote: "The Chapel rises in the truth of ineffable beauty, tranquil and dim within as if it had been lifted stone hy stone, tower by tower, and altar by altar from mediaeval history, when God was big, and wisdom was young with the heart of a child. What I mean is that there is something approaching inward happiness, softly luminous in the whole effect; nothing suggestive of vanity nor of mere riches."

SHAW'S PLAN FOR IMPROVING CONGRESS (Continued from page 1) his life in Washington, and his part in the game of politics. Why can he not stay in congress and enjoy all these things, while making a good record and earning the respect of his fellow citizens? The answer is so simple that almost everybody fails to discover it. It is because the voters in his district will not rally to his support when he acts with courage for the best interests of the country. There is always a veteran’s lobby, a labor lobby, a pork-barrel lobby, and a tariff lobby. There is also a persistent employee's lobby, working against economical government and helping the other big lobbies to carry the fight against courageous congressmen back into their home districts." Of the two branches of Congress, Dr. Shaw feels that the Senate is worse than useless in its present form. It cannot be abolished, but its peculiar functions could be taken away, and its power greatly lessened. The Senate is un-representative in that great states and small have equal power. At some future time, in the opinion of the speaker, the American people will shake off the bad parts of the original constitution. When that time comes, they will abolish the Senate and reform the House. "One quite simple change of our legislative bodies that should not shock even the most conservative minds would consist in extending the term of office of members of the House," Dr. Shaw pointed out. "At present, these members are insulted with impunity by organized private interests because they seek re-election every twenty-four months. Certainly, their two-year terms should be made as long as the six-year terms of the senators. I am quite deliberate in expressing the opinion that Congress would be greatly improved in quality and in efficiency if individual merit were emphasized, partisanship minimized, and terms made long, with expectation of something like permanency." "As matters stand, the President represents the nation, while Congress represents states and districts. Congress can uphold national interests only when public opinion is aroused. Our system is 'presidential government.' We should not be afraid to strengthen it," An article further elaborating on this same subject by Dr. Shaw will appear in the next issue of Review of Reviews under the title "Evils of Our Congressional System."

Morse Boulevard Telephone 140 "Quality before Quantity" has been the slogan for Winter Park in the past and it will be well to stick to it in the future. The presence of Rollins College, with its family of cultured faculty members, would tend to make any community become selective in its growth. The early residents of Winter Park were also early patrons of the College, so that the community and the College have grown together. "Boom" days apparently did not upset the balance here and Winter Park is now unique among the winter resort towns of Florida. Visitors from. the other places are not slow to note the difference and tell us about it. As a former Chamber of Commerce secretary who has had considerable experience in promoting the interests of a community, your editor believes in inviting people to corns to the community who are wanted and likely to "fit in," rather than a general broadcast of literature. If one gives a party he does not invite everybody to it,— only those who "belong." Nor is this snobbery. Winter Park has a right to seek the kind of people who will appreciate not only its wonderful climate and healthfulness but also its unusual opportunities for entertainment and culture. There are lots of places in Florida that will satisfy those people who cannot appreciate Winter Park.

McPherson Manager and Supervisor of Work IRVING BACHELLER 74,—GOING ON 73! (Continued from page 1) came to Florida when he did. The man who is famous throughout America as editor, poet and novelist, and who at the age of seventy-four says he has accomplished more work in the past year than in any like period of time in his life. Because he chose Winter Park as his home seventeen years ago. The man who, because he feels this way about his adopted state, and says so with evident sincerity and love for the place, gives to Florida, and to Winter Park particularly, the kind of publicity that cannot be purchased for any amount of money. The type of publicity that is an invaluable asset to any community. Irving Bacheller came seventeen years ago to Florida, and from the state chose Winter Park to make his home. He had not been well for some years, and was, in his own words, uncomfortable each year from October until May. He found that in Florida he ceased to suffer from a chronic bronchial condition and was able to accomplish a great deal more work because he felt better and could be out in the open the best part of every day. He chose Winter Park because he had the vision to realize the future of the quaint little tree-shaded village with one single track paved street that was the Winter Park of 1917. There were about two thousand people in the village in those days, most of them New Englanders. There was a well-housed public school and a poverty-stricken college with an excellent school of music. "And that," says Irving Bacheller, "was all—except the natural beauty of many lakes, shaded avenues of lovely trees that were already nearly forty years old, and a far-seeing spirit. It was this spirit of the little town, the unusual atmosphere of this little community, that convinced me that Winter Park was where I. wanted to live and work and have my friends." "Here I have built a home and lived for sixteen years," Mr. Bacheller is quoted from a recent article in the Legion Magazine. "I have seen beautiful homes and gardens coming on the lake shores. I have had a delightful part in remarkable undertakings—in the building of an educational institution now distinguished, in the organization of the Society of the Allied Arts, in being one of a community of fewer than five thousand people that is able to maintain an excellent symphony orchestra of seventy pieces. Many of my own craft now come here to spend the winters. They are famous men and women. Winter Park is like a bit of old New England in my boyhood. Through the season the churches are crowded every Sunday, a famous lecturer fills the auditorium, and many are turned away, the meetings of the Poetry Society are crowded and often five thousand people gather on the campus to hear the program of the Animated Magazine. At a lecture for charity I have seen the plates come in with nine hundred dollars in them. So perhaps the most remarkable thing I have seen in Florida is the making and character of this little town." Mr. Bacheller told me of the orange grove on the lake shore, surrounded with untamed and untrammeled verdure, which is now his beautiful home "Gate o' the Isles." In his study overlooking a smooth lawn studded with cypress trees that merges into the lake, he works every morning. His newest book, as yet unnamed, is nearing completion, and will be published this summer. Every afternoon that the weather permits, which is 29 days out of every month at least, according to Mr. Bacheller, he plays golf. Eighteen holes of golf. And I reiterate his statement that in the past year he has accomplished more work than in any time of the same length in his life. And remember, he's seventy-four, going' on seventy-three! I feel I am right in stating that the finest "advertisement" Winter Park has is Irving Bachellei1. Not only because of what he tells the world about the place through his writing's, but because of what he is himself.

Halfway Between Orlando and Winter Park CURRIER AND IVES PRINTS ON DISPLAY By Marge Lockman An exhibition of Currier and Ives prints is on display at the Rollins Art Gallery and will remain open to the public until Thursday of next week. Currier and Ives Prints were the popular form of art in the America of 1850 to 1880, and the exhibition gives an interesting insight into the habits, dress, forms of humor and of recreation of those days. The prints have a valuable place in the world of art as human documents. The prints were "manufactured" by the company of Currier and Ives, who employed "artists" to execute the drawings. It is evident from many of the prints that the organization's idea of "artist" varied greatly. The prints are colorful, some of them quite lovely in thought and line, and most of them very amusing. The prints are now quite rare, and highly valued by their owners largely because of their quaint humor. One of the prints attracting attention at the exhibit is that entitled "Son of Temperance" . . . It shows a dignified arid pompous young man in what is quite plainly his best bib and tucker, standing against a back-di*op of red velvet and resting his hand upon a document which reads, for the world to profit by, "No Brother shall make, buy, sell, or use as a beverage any spirituous or malt liquors, wine or cider." The young man, his background, and the proclamation are drawn with a nice attention to minute detail, and the picture of course was intended to have a high moral value, but the gentleman is standing upon infinitesimal feet that that could not possibly support the weight of the average five-year-old child. A charming and colorful print, which was probably the pride of some living-room of the seventies, is entitled "The Life of a Sportsman." It features a pretty and artistic little canoe, too small to ever hold more than one frail human, in which is seated one bewhiskered gentleman dressed in outdoor togs, one large gun, one large dog, and one plump and weighty buck, the spoils of the day. One feels that the picture should have been entitled "Optimism." As an exposition of the art of the past, the prints are delightful and amusing, well-worth an inspection, showing the great difference in the artistic notions of widely separated generations. Plans to create a botanical garden and arboretum at Sabring as a natural complement to the Highlands Hammock park, and make it one of the greatest natural showplaces of Florida were explained to interested residents of Winter Park last week by Mrs. Clara I. Thomas, of St. Petersburg, who spent several days here conferring with prominent members of the Garden Club. TRY FAVOR'S 10c.

ANNIE RUSSELL OPENS THEATRE SEASON For the opening of her third season of professional artists series Miss Annie Russell offers Winter Park next Thursday and Friday evenings, January 24, 25, one of the choicest entertainments, Mary Kennedy, leading actress and author, in her fantasy "One Day of Spring," with a supporting cast of Miss Russell's own company, and incidental music specially composed by Sam Barber and performed by the Curtis String Quartet. Not even New York could boast a more complete attraction and it is quite certain that Miss Russell will find her charming little theatre packed to the doors for both performances. Miss Kennedy's career on the stage is too well known to need comment; but it is notable that she "jumped at the chance to work with Miss Russell." "To share in the benefit of Miss Russell's experience and her artistry is a marvelous opportunity for me, personally, and I am having an exciting experience," is the way she expressed herself on arriving at Winter Park for the rehearsals. HELEN MOORE IN PIANO RECITAL Miss Helen Moore, concert pianist, will appear in a piano recital at the Congregational Church on Tuesday evening, January 22nd, under the auspices of the Tuesday Evening Lectures. Miss Moore is the head of the piano department of Rollins College Conservatory of Music, and has appeared as soloist with the Winter Park Symphony Orchestra. Winter Park is fortunate in its privilege of hearing this well known artist. For four consecutive years she studied under Olga Samaroff and James Friskin, and also studied in France under Isidor Philipp, considered by many the greatest teacher of piano in Europe today. These masters, together with Harold Bauer, with whom Miss Moore studied for two years in New York City, have expressed the keenest enthusiasm for her genius. Regarding her talent M. Philipp said, "I have for you a great esteem, for your intelligence, your enthusiasm for your art, and I predict for you a beautiful future." Francis Rogers, the celebrated teacher and concert singer, for whom Miss Moore accompanied four years, was also highly enthusiastic about her work, and after a concert at Steinway Hall in New York, the Musical Courier, one of America's leading musical journals, said, "Helen Moore, pianist, accom- (Continued on page 5) Helen Moore, the gifted and popular pianist of Rollins Conservatory, who will be heard in recital at the Congregational Church, Tuesday evening, January 22.

Why, just consider the host of all Our friends and friends of friends. —G. M. W. WINTER PARK, THE CITY OF FRIENDLY CLUBS In traveling up or down the state one conies to a tree-shaded town on the entrance gateways at either end of which are the words "Winter Park, the "City of Homes." After spending even a short stay in this lake-encircled spot, one feels that the words should read "Winter Park, the City of Friendly Clubs." The hospitable looking building set in its own block of greenery is the Woman's Club. The slogan for the Florida Federation of Women's Clubs this year is "A light in the clubhouse every night," but the Winter Park Woman's Club might add, "and an open door all the time." For from early morninguntil late at night activities are carried on here. The visitor is greeted by the hospitality committee and as this is a departmental club she may choose her own activities, or go to all of them, as many do; including many men guests. The Club meets every Friday at 3:00 and Wednesday morning at 10:30, a civic luncheon and board luncheon coming once a month.. It is composed of departments of Drama, Art, Literature, and Civics, and sponsors a troop of Girl Scouts. Each department is headed by a most capable chairman.

Kilroe, Mr. Kayser and Miss Perkins. Mrs. Aldis has returned now to New York. That the charming environment and facilities of the Perrydell are appreciated by society is evident from the succession of luncheons, teas and dinners that are being given there. Visitors who are spending the season in Winter Park and Orlando are augmented by many parties from more distant points as the reputation of the Perrydell is state-wide. Mr. A. J. Hanna and his mother, Mrs. Josiah C. Hanna, gave a luncheon Wednesday in honor of Prof. P. A. Martin, of Palo Alto, Cal. The guests were the members of the history faculty of the college.

Hartford, Conn., to visit her grandparents, Mr. and1 Mrs. Miles M. Dawson, until spring.

Under the able direction of Mrs. Walter W. Rose, Chairman of the Rollins Alumni Association, a collection of highly interesting Annie Russell memorabilia was exhibited. The moving of Robert Herrick from the literary and social field's of Winter Park to the diplomatic service of the Virgin Islands(U. S.) is a loss to his many friends who nevertheless wish him success in the post.

Plays are put on and plays reviewed; books are read and discussed, many times by their eminent authors; exhibitions of pictures are hung in the gallery, which is the only large one in Central Florida. These, exhibitions are shown to the entire community. A vital and active interest is taken in matters pertaining to civic betterment and the building is used by the Symphony Orchestra for rehearsals, by the Winter Visitor's Club, and for lectures, card parties, dances, and all things of a cultural and social nature. The Club is under the able leadership of Mrs. H. E. Oesterling, President for the past three years. Being in one of nature's garden spots, the Garden Club of Winter Park, headed by Miss Ethel Enyart, is most active. It is composed of circles which meet in groups at the gardens of its members the second Wednesday of every month, for detailed discussions as to ways and means of beautifying gardens, roads, parks, etc. The fourth Wednesday of the month at 3:00 the members gather at the Woman's Club building to hear some prominent expert in his line talk upon Forestry, Wild Flowers, Arbor Day, Roadside Beautification, etc. One has but to see the Rose Garden and the Azalea Garden to realize to what practical and lasting means the Club's energies are directed. If one has an A. B., M. A., Ph. D., or other academic or scientific degree one naturally is welcomed by the American Association of University Women, whose efficient head is Mrs. Willard Wattles. Its various study groups meet weekly and discuss Drama, Art, Book Reviews and Child Welfare. These informal meetings are held at the homes of members. The first Wednesday of the month the groups gather together and outside speakers bring the latest news on timely subjects. Irving Bacheller sits as the guiding hand of the Allied Arts which is composed of clubs within clubs. It offers once a year prizes for state-wide competition, for the best play and pageant, the best short story, the best piece of music, the best piece of sculpture and the best landscapes and portraits. The active branch of the Allied Arts is the Poetry Society, of which Mrs. Jessie Rittenhouse Scollard is the guiding spirit. Meetings are held at private homes about once a month at 3:30. The life history, aims, and leading works of a distinguished poet are read and then numerous unsigned poems are listened to and voted upon, one being chosen as the best at each meeting. At the final meeting of the year these selections are voted upon, the winner receiving the annual and much coveted prize of the Poetry Society of Florida, which is a branch of the Poetry Society of America. The Fortnightly is the oldest organization in town and is this year going into its 42nd season. Under the leadership of Mr. A. E. Kline the Fortnightly meets at the homes of its members at 8:00 on the second and fourth Mondays of the month. The speakers bring this group various subjects of timely concern, after which a social hour is enjoyed. Add to these club activities the ever-varied Rollins College activities, many of which are open to the public, and one finds oneself often in a quandary as to which of the many interesting and enlightening club meetings to attend. DOCTOR NEWMAN'S FIRST LECTURE All Saints Parish House was crowded to the doors last Monday when Doctor Evelyn Newman gave the first lecture of her series. The subject, Current Plays of Broadway, with a selection of perhaps a dozen plays recently seen by Doctor Newman during a visit to New York. The two outstanding examples, widely different in theme and expression, were Maxwell Anderson's "Valley Forge" and "Within the Gates," by Sean O'Casey; the former a story of our forefathers' fight for the liberty we now enjoy;the latter full of the beautiful Irish dreaminess which Sean O'Casey always expresses. Doctor- Newman, a brilliant speaker, held the attention.,of her audience throughout, by the warmth and color of her descriptions. TEA FOR MRS. CRINE Mrs. Harriet Crine, for many years the Executive Secretary of the National Arts Club of New York City, who has been spending a few weeks in Winter Park, was the guest of honor at a small tea party Mr. and Mrs. Jean Jacques Pfister gave for her Wednesday afternoon. The guests invited are the artists of Winter Park and members of the National Arts Club and Mr. Carle Blenner, whose paintings are to be shown in the Woman's Club this week. It is doubtful if there is any one in the country who has so wide an acquaintance with the artists of the last thirty years as Mrs. Crine. She comes to Winter Park through her friend, Mrs. Dorothea Warren O'Hara, who is spending her second season here, and both are delighted with this section of Florida.

She has also had long experience in performance of chamber music, and has played with many artists in New York City.

Minor Sonata and wrote to her, "I have great pleasure in expressing my interest in your musicianship and I would recommend you warmly to anyone desirous of playing chamber music with a musician-pianist." Since becoming a member of the Rollins Conservatory faculty, Miss Moore has gone each summer to Fontainbleau, France, where she studies with Philipp and Deereus.

Mr. Martin will discuss "The Breakdown in Disarmament," "Must the United States Fight Japan?", "Russia and Communism", "Italy and Fascism"; "Germany and National Socialism", "France", "Great Britain", and "The United States." Each lecture will be given in the Winter Park Congregational Church, the series to be presented under the auspices of Rollins College. Admission is free but a collection will be made at each lecture for the benefit of- the College Scholarship Fund with preference for Interantional scholarships. Mr. Martin, -who has given a course during the Winter term at Rollins for the past several years, is, one of the most popular public lecturers in Central Florida. He is an authority on his subject and his delivery is convincing, interesting, and iorceful. A native of England, he was a member of the faculty of the Peoples' Institute in East London for some time. He came to the United .Spates in 1899 upon invitation to lecture in a number of cities and at various colleges and educational institutions. The following year he returned to New York to marry Prestoriia Mann, of New York City, and to take the position of director of the League for Political Education in New York. He was appointed by Mayor Gaynor a member of the Greater New York Board of Education on which he served eight years. He is the author of numerous magazine articles on political and sociological subjects and with his wife the author of a book on Feminism. Mrs. Martin is the author of the book "Prohibiting Poverty", which received the warm endorsement of Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt about a year ago. Mr. Martin became a resident of Florida in 1929. He has served on several civic committees in Winter Park and has addressed numerous audiences in Orlando, Sanford and other cities and towns in Florida. CLEMENS FEATURES RUSSIAN MUSIC Rimsky Korsakoff's glittering orchestration gave Conductor Harve Clemens opportunities to show the excellence of tonal ensemble possessed by the Symphony Orchestra at last Sunday's concert. This music makes the individual choirs perform solo parts and contrasts their varied timbres with ever surprising effects, and the players met the task with spirit, precision and well-modulated power. The public never tires of the "Largo" from the New World Symphony and it made a pleasing offset to the Russian brilliance of Rimsky and the Caucasian Sketches of Ippolitov-Ivanoff, who reminds one in a few passages of Finland's Sibelius. UNIVERSITY CLUB The University Club of Winter Park will meet at the Chamber of Commerce on Saturday evening, January 19, and the adoption of a constitution and election of officers are to be acted upon. A program will be presented and university men resident in Winter Park are cordially invited to attend.

A visitor from Boston, being shown a number of last season's Winter Park Topics a few days ago, settled down to read the entire file, remarking when he reached the last number, "Well, that is a paper quite above the average!" The Editor received the letter printed below following the publication in last week's Topics of an article on the literary colony of Winter Park, and wishes to announce that a further article on this subject will be presented in the near future. Our writers are our crowning glory and we hope to do justice to all who honor Winter Park. "Editor, Winter Park Topics, Winter Park, Fla. "Dear Sir: Orlando claims Victor Starbuck as a writer, but as Mr. Starbuck is now resident in Winter Park, should you not include him in any article on your Literary Colony? His volume of poems was published1 by the Yale University Press, a not too usual honor. "You also omit the names of Miles Menander Dawson and George Meason Whicher, both well-known writers and residents of Winter Park. Another omission is the name of Ruth Guthrie Harding', whose poems and essays have long appeared in leading magazines. Her biographical essay on Ambrose Bierce is listed by bibliographers among the most important items of Bierciana, and her poems have been reprinted in many anthologies and set to music by composers, including myself and Roland Farley and Alice Roper Fish. "Rose Mills Powers, poet, is the wife of a realtor 6f Winter Park (Hiram Powers), and Ruth Guthrie Harding is Mrs, Richard Burton. Willard Wattles of the Rollins faculty is a poet of reputation. These writers seem to me regrettable omissions from your article of last week. "Very truly yours, "Robert Guernsey Smith. "Orlando, Fla." BLENNER HONORED IN MIDST OF WORK With many notable examples of his work on exhibition, Carle Blenner, the distinguished painter, was honored at a reception on Thursday evening at the Woman's Club. There was a large assembly who found both the artist and his work equally interesting. The exhibition continues open for the public Friday and Saturday from 10 a. m. to 5 p. m. MISS LEONARD TAKES US INTO HER CONFIDENCE (All Winter Park knows or should know that the Symphony Orchestra, whose concerts are one of our g-reatest delights, is the creation and constant care of Miss Mary 1h. Leonard. Its musical achievements are a source of pride; its financial provender reminiscent of "Valley Forge." We are glad to give space to the following expression of her thoughts.—Ed.) Not many days ago our Treasurer said to me sternly, "The payroll for this next concert will just about clean out our bank account." A sort of scared feeling came over me when I thought of the three more concerts to come. But after nine years of this sort of scare I calm myself as a rule by a conversation with myself which runs somewhat as follows: My brave self says, "Haven't you always believed1 this orchestral work was given you to do to establish good music in our midst and help the musicians?" My seared self replied meekly, "Yes."" "Haven't these nine years taught you that when you think you are in a cul de sac that a way has opened before you and you have been able to carry on?" I answered more meekly still, "Yes." "Well, then work on, but don't worry," As if in answer to this, the morning's mail brings me a letter from far away Sicily from beautiful Taormina, out of the letter dropped a check for $50.00. Lovely people who had lived last winter on the north shore of Lake Osceola are still thinking of us and write: "Will you use the enclosed check from us for your work with your orchestra? I hear you have started' a tea room for that purpose which is meeting with instant success and consider that we are taking many teas at it; I wish we might, and I wish you the greatest success." We can't all put $50.00 checks in our letters but we can help along this good work by a friendly spirit, coming to the orchestra tea room to hear the good music which three times a week can be heard at the tea hour. This tea hour music, by the way, is also a help to those students who are struggling to finish their college course and find it a difficult matter during these lean days. We are hoping our next concert on February 10th will bring as much pleasure to our audience as did the one last Sunday. Those who listened noted the precision and smoothness of the playing and thought the orchestra had never done better work. Were you there? Yours in behalf of our Florida musicians, MARY L. LEONARD. MEMORIAL SERVICE FOR DR. EDWARDS A Memorial Service for the late Dr. Gaston H. Edwards, who was a member of the Board of Trustees of Rollins College, will be held in Knowles Memorial Chapel at Rollins next Sunday afternoon, January 20, at 4:30 o'clock, DeanCharles A.

Here in this skillfully improvised gallery may be heard the symphony that began in the 14th century, rose into the mighty orchestration of the High Renaissance, and in a crescendo sank towards its close in the 18th century. In the two small north and south galleries are the Sienese, Florentine, and Venetian Primitives, in which the artists remade the world after their own hearts, filled as they were with a love for the Madonna and Christ Child and for the crucified Christ, whose devoted followers express in their drooping figures and agonized expressions the sorrow of the world. In the Crucifixion (2), attributed to Lorenzetti, the Virgin Mary, St. John the beloved disciple, and the kneeling Magdalen are human beings overwhelmed by tragedy, The piety of the painters shines also through the earnest faces of the five single figures of saints (4, 6, 7, 7, 39), Mary Magdalen, a Saint Bishop, St. Augustine, St. Benedict, and St. Peter, who show by their expressions that their lives are dedicated to the service of God. These Primitives are lacking in knowledge of anatomy as shown in Biondo's Madonna and Child (12); they know little of perspective, either lineal or aerial, as in the Coronation (9), where the many figures are placed one above the other and the drapery is handled as a solid mass. But with long contemplation of these numerous Primitives we begin to feel that their effect is enhanced by the Byzantine influence of a past age, for they are by this means farther removed from our own world, dominated as it is by realities and material interests. And now we approach the High Renaissance in the main gallery. There were giants in those days! Here are the men who profiting by the progress made by preceding generations of painters and by their own tireless study of technical problems were able to emerge into a new era, escaping at last from the medieval influence. The figures in their pictures are bathed in light and air; the forms are modelled with strong oppositions (Continued on page 6) INTIMATIONS OF THE "POP CONCERT" ["Intimations" seems a happy epithet for the following message which Miss Leonard has given the Editor of Winter Park Topics. Everybody wants to know about the "Pop Concert," one of our outstanding parties, ranking with the "Animated Magazine" in importance. It is not so far off and Miss Leonard, ever on the job, has been sharpening her publicity pencil to "tell the world" and pave the way for another big success.— Ed.] Those of us who have been fortunate enough to see Richard Wagner's opera "Die Rheingold" will appreciate this unusually telling description by Bernard Shaw: "As you sit waiting for the curtain to rise, you suddenly catch the booming ground tone of a mighty river. It becomes plainer, clearer, you get nearer to the surface and catch the green light and the flights of bub- (Continued on page 5) Dr. Rockwell H. Potter To Speak at Chapel The address at the morning meditation in Knowles Memorial Chapel at Rollins College Sunday, February 3, will be delivered by Rev. Rockwell Harmon Potter, D.

Kress, of New York, when his wonderful exhibition of Italian Art was opened for invited guests. The guests were met at the door by Mrs. E. B. Mendsen, Mrs. Emily Lippincott Webster, Mrs. Rose Powers VanCleeve and Miss Theresa Drunnnond. They were then presented by Mrs. A. E. Dick to the receiving line which included Dr. and Mrs. Hamilton Holt, Mr. Samuel H.

Oesterling, Mrs. George E, Warren, Mayor and Mrs. R. C. Baker. Winter Park has never seen a more colorful social event, the rich background of the exhibition affording a most effective setting1 for the representative assembly of the community's most prominent men and women, Few occasions have been marked by a more formal display of beautiful gowns, among those especially noted being Mrs. Holt in pale blue satin, Miss Robie, white crepe and silver, Miss Annie Russell, India red lace with brown fur, Dr, Mary Leonard, white satin gown with crimson corsage and crimson slippers, Mrs. Scollard, black lace with pink roses in her corsage. Mrs. Bacheller, white satin, Mrs. Oesterling, French blue. (Continued on page 7). For Calendar of Events see page 5 MENDICANT FRIAR BRINGS A TOUCH OF THE MIDDLE AGES TO WINTER PARK Much interest was aroused several days ago by the appearance on our streets of a large Cadillac car of ancient vintage, with the cross of the Episcopal Church painted upon its windows. It was fitted with camping outfit and driven by a priest whose only companion was a bright-eyed dog of unknown lineage. These were the Reverend W. M. Partridge and his dog Spot, who have traveled from Boston to California and back again, the journey lasting nearly three years and covering thirty-three states. During this time Father Partridge has been preaching what he reverently calls the Joy of Christ, to people discouraged, hungry, sick and lonely in out of the way places, in roadside cabins, on the desert, in camps and on mountain tops, here the people have no other gospel ministration, and he finds them everywhere hungry for the story of the love of Christ. Some years ago Father Partridge was obliged to give up his work among the poor in Boston on account of serious heart trouble, and laid by, the doctor thought, as of no further usefulness. He decided to live in the open air, in the quiet and rest of a camp in Connecticut, (Continued on page 4) DOROTHY SANDS IN IMPERSONATIONS Dorothy Sands, famed for her impersonations, will appear here on Friday evening, February 8, in. her new one woman show, "Changing Styles in Acting," the second performance in Miss Annie Russell's professional artists series. Miss Sands appears, not only without scenery, but without a supporting cast. Yet the stage on which she plays is never empty, for the genius of her acting peoples it with actors who, though unseen, are as true to character as if the most careful casting director had chosen them and who are as responsive to Miss Sands as if the most able direction had gone into rehearsing them. Her selection by Miss Russell for her artist series is quite sufficient guarantee that Winter Park will enjoy another outstanding entertainment.

On Friday Dr. and Mrs. Lucius Clark and Mrs. Hess, who are alumni of Cornell College, with Dr. and Mrs. Burgstahler attended a Cornell reunion at the Bok Tower. About forty Cornellians who are now in Florida met there and later had dinner together at Lake Wales. A good-sized audience greeted Dr. Rosalie Slaughter Morton when she talked on "The Soul of Serbia" at the regular Tuesday evening event at the Congregational Church. Those who attended were well repaid, for Dr. Morton spoke with wide knowledge of her subject and gave her hearers a vivid picture of the courage, optimism and high principles which characterize the Serbian people. An interesting phase of her lecture was the story of her "family," as she referred to the sixty Serbian students which she has educated in American colleges. After the war in which she served as commissioner for the American Red Cross and as a member of the staff of a French war hospital, Dr. Morton returned to her native city, New York, and by giving lectures in towns around the metropolis she was able to raise nearly a quarter of a million dollars with which to bring the young students to America and put them through college, This she has done with the help of her loyal friends, and she may well be proud of the results as many of her "children" have risen to high positions in their various chosen fields. L'Alliance Francaise L'Alliance Francaise of Winter Park and. Orlando will meet Feb. 7th at 427 E. Central avenue, Orlando.The program will be given by the Club Francaise of Rollins College. At the meeting held Jan, 17th at the Alabama Hotel Baron d'Estournelles de Constant gave an interesting talk, "Les principaux courant de la pensee francaise d'aujourdhin." Visitors interested in French are invited to attend. SUN ECLIPSE FEB. 3 A partial eclipse of the sun will be visible from Winter Park the morning of February 3. The eclipse begins at 9:45 a, m. and lasts two hours. The maximum eclipse takes place at 10:50, at which time the sun will be about four-tenths obscured. If you desire to express a Gift Box of citrus fruit to your friends at home you will naturally want the best. Remember that the recent freeze ruined 70 per cent of this year's crop and made it dry and unpalatable. Your only safeguard is to buy direct from a grower whose fruit was undamaged which has placed me in a position to personally guarantee every box I sell. The quality and sweetness of our fruit is the outcome of many years' research work in the cultivation and fertilization of our groves. I specialize in Pink Seedless grapefruit and am the only grower of this variety in the county. We will be glad to give you, free of charge, a sample of this unusually fine fruit. K. N.

Park Ave., corner Canton WINTER PARK Presents New and Exciting Versions of the Season's Biggest Successes Advance Collection of Sportswear and Dinner Gowns for Southern Wear Featuring Large Sizes Page Four WINTER PARK TOPICS, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1935 MENDICANT FRIAR (Continued from page 1) with his dog Spot for companion. This life renewed his strength and because, as he believed, Christ cured him, he felt an urge to start on a "Venture of Faith," carrying out the teachings of his Master who spent His life teaching along the highways and byways, and who "went about doing good." Thus he became like the mendicant friars of old, living entirely by faith, having no stated income as there is no fund to cover such a case in our age. Father Partridge tells of many times when his faith was tested and he was "almost discouraged"—who would not be! One such time was when the old car in which he started out broke down completely and had to go to the junk pile. His worldly wealth at that time was ten cents—only a strong faith could surmount such a condition—but he continued to pray for help to go on with his work. An Irish Roman Catholic friend who ran a garage in Brooklyn had a nine-year-old Cadillac car (costing originally over six thousand dollars) which he was willing to let Father Partridge have for fifty dollars, but when one has only three dollars (Father Partridge's finances had begun to improve!) how pay fifty dollars; He kept on praying, however, and believing, and one day came a letter from a man whom Father Partridge had never seen but who knew of his work. In the letter was a check for one hundred dollars. Thus he was enabled to go on his mission. "God willed it," he says. "God must make His contact in material way as long as we are material." The old Cadillac (now thirteen years old) has had much kindly attention in its travels. Gas and oil have been freely given in many towns; the President of the Cadillac Company sent a new battery at one time. In Akron, Ohio, the president of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company was discovered to have been a classmate of Father Partridge at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, over forty years ago, so he provided a complete set of new tires for the journey. When the missionary was visited by a representative of Winter Park Topics, he was busy making his bed in the car, under a large tree near Rollins Hall, where he has been the guest of Dr. Holt, a friend of his boyhood and schooldays. Spot was in disgrace, having stolen a slab of cheese from the car. His bright eyes were cast down and he refused to make friends with the newshawk. Spot has intelligence; he knows there's some connection between crime and punishment. Asked for his opinion on Repeal and Depression, Father Partridge said: "I believe repeal is a blessing to our country, as our people are sobering up. The stories about drunken driving are largely local, not general. People are losing interest in drinking." He states that in crossing the continent he saw only three intoxicated persons in seven months. He also thinks the depression has proven a blessing in making people more thoughtful for others and developing our unselfishness. And so, the Priest of the Highways goes on with his work of love for humanity, trusting in God to protect him, and his little dog and his old car. J. G. S. [Father Partridge has received permission from the Church authorities to continue his work and teaching in Florida. His headquarters will be at Rollins College for the time of his visit.—Ed.] Rollins Art Library Aids Study of Italian Art The Rollins College art library, located in the Art Studio on Ollie avenue, places at the disposal of townspeople an ample collection of reproductions of Italian painting and innumerable books on the subject. In order that people may become acquainted with the ideals, background and characteristics of the various painters represented in the Kress exhibition of Italian paintings, the trained library assistant, Miss Templeton, has prepared lists of reading references and reproductions for each individual painter, his masters, and his pupils. Through the efforts of Mrs. John Houston, the art library material has been brought to the attention of the study groups in the Woman's Club. Many of the large colored reproductions were used by Mrs. Houston in a lecture on Italian painting before the school children of Winter Park. This basic collection now numbering 275 volumes and approximately 1300 reproductions of architecture painting, and sculpture covering every important phase in the history of art, was a gift from the Carnegie Corporation of New York to further the teaching of art in colleges. It is thoroughly catalogued and indexed. The library is open daily except Sunday from 8:15 a. m. to 12:45 p. m. Townspeople may take some of these books out or may study in the library.

That is what it is hoped you will do on Thursday, February 28th, enjoy your self "exuberantly." When the curtain goes up you will have a surprise. You will also find yourselves in good company, surrounded by composers who wander about with the heroes and heroines of their great creations. Tables at which six persons can sit. and where refreshments can be served can be reserved at the Orchestra Shop, 332 East Park avenue. Mrs. Warner, who has consented to act as consultant as to costumes, can be found at the Art Department of the College on Ollie avenue. Mrs. Grewer, house guest of Miss Edwards, has also offered to assist in planning costumes. At present the manager's great anxiety is to get her fellow townsmen who resemble some well known composer to consent to take the character. Beethoven has been discovered and has promised not to cut his hair until after the "Pop" concert. Richard Wagner is in the offing but his wife refuses to let him shave his mustache. Chopin is also nearby. It is hoped that all who remember with pleasure the "Pop" concert of last year will join in making the one this year an outstanding success. MARY LEONARD.

CARLETON & GILLIES 340 Phillips Building WINTER PARK Telephone 311-J Page Six WINTER PARK TOPICS, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1935 ITALIAN PAINTINGS OF KRESS COLLECTION (Continued from page 1) of light and shads; the architecture has stability; the figures are superimposed upon one another through foreshortening, and the landscapes have a massive grandeur. But the mastery of technique does not make a great work of art; technique is only the artist's means of communicating-to others his inner vision, his interpretation of the world ahout him. This we must realize if art is to have a meaning for us. The Madonna and Child (18), by Giovanni Battista Utili da Faenza, is especially interesting because of the architectonic composition of the picture, which is built up from the bottom, starting on each side with a kneeling figure with two more above, all leading structurally up to the Madonna, whose head rises in the center above the others. The interest, however, is focused on the child on his mother's knee. This is a compositional arrangement that was so much used by the Florentines that it became a convention, and consequently has been rejected with derision by modern painters. Outstanding among the many treasures of the collection are three large pictures of the Madonna and Child, tondos (circular pictures), surrounded by exquisitely wrought frames, all by Florentines, who frequently used this form, as seen also in Botticelli's Madonna of the Magnificat and in Raphael's Madonna of the Chair. The Madonna with the Child (20), Batiano Mainardi, has features found in many pictures of this period—the filmy, transparent veil over the head, the rich drapery, and the charming scenes in miniature through the windows in the background. The Madonna and Child (21), by Piero di Cosimo, glows with light and color, and is held together by rhythmic lines, color harmony, and concentration of attention on the child. The Madonna and Child with Saints and Angels (22), by Fra Bartolommeo, an adherent of Savonarola, is masterly in modelling and draughtsmanship and in the use of light and dark spaces. A survey of the Venetians of the Renaissance in the main gallery justifies their reputation for richness of color and their love of a sumptuous effect that was the inevitable result of their vast wealth and luxurious living. Venice, the bride of the sea, had for her marriage portion the riches that had accumulated through commerce. The builders gave her churches and palaces inlaid, within and without, with marble and mosaics, facades emblazoned with frescoes, golden domes, minarets, pavilions, flags, and banners. The artists painted religious subjects, usually in a worldly manner, but their genius was more truly expressed in portraiture, pageantry, myths, and pastorals—the portrayal of a happy, carefree life. A magnificent example of the splendor of Venetian art is the largest picture, in the place of honor in the main gallery, Holy Conversation (48), by Bonifazio Veronese. The Madonna is placing a crown on the head of the beautiful St. Catherine, while the torture wheel, broken by the angel, lies before her, so harmless now that a bird rests on it. The little Tobias carrying his symbol, a fish, offers the Christ Child a vessel of ointment for a blessing so that his father may be cured of his blindness. At the left are St. Joseph and St. Jerome with his cardinal's hat; at the right are St. Peter holding the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven and St. Paul with his book. The figure of the Virgin stands out against a massive bush as a background, while beyond are silvery mountains against a blue sky. The flesh is aglow with life, the bodies are exquisitely moulded beneath the graceful draperies* and the whole is flooded with light. The forms are bound together by rhythm of line and a harmony of color tones, especially the reds and blues, resulting in a totality of effect. Other Venetian paintings are the Titianesque Portrait of a Gentleman, by Lorenzo Lotto, the finely designed Trinity Courted by Angels (49), by Tintoretto, and The Annunciation to the Shepherds (51), by Jacopo Bassano, showing his influence on El Greco, the god of the moderns, but these must wait till another time. In considering the art of a country we should realize that we are making a mistake if we limit our knowledge to a few great figures, such as Raphael, Leonardo, and Michael Angelo in Italy. In another art we well know that there are other great poets besides Dante, Shakespeare, and Milton. In the Kress collection it is these others that we have the opportunity to become acquainted with, provided we visit it again and again. HILDA SCUDDER HERE TO EXECUTE PLACQUES Miss Hilda Scudder, the talented sculptor of Boston, arrived in Winter Park yesterday, to execute several portrait placques, one of Miss Hilda Lowes, of Virginia Inn, chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and lecturer on English Cottage and California Gardens, and another of Mrs. Wm. H. Fox, wife of the recently retired director of the Brooklyn Art Museum, expected this week at the Alabama. Miss Scudder is a pupil of Felix Benneteau, of Paris, who did the War Memorial for Comedie Francaise. He won the Prix de Rome some years ago. Miss Scudder has studios in both Boston and Nantucket. Her work is chiefly remarkable for its variety, the likeness of the sitter to such an extent that the personality stands revealed as it was in that of the Florentine sculptors of the Cinquecento. She is equally successful with men and women, young and old, and shows a peculiarly sensitive touch in her portraits of little children. Last summer she did bas-reliefs of Emory Buckner and his grandchild, Judge Andrews of Hartford, heads of the granddaughter of Edward Prosser, and other children. These are finished in tinted plaster, terra cotta, and bronze. Miss Scudder is a granddaughter of the late President Seeley, of Smith College, and a niece of Mrs. Ruth Rhees, whose husband is just retiring from the presidency of Rochester University. She will shortly have an exhibition of her work, during her residence at Winter Park for the next six weeks. A Suggestion When you are at the Post Office stop next door for gas, oil and checking.

NEWMAN TELLS OF THOMAS MANN Every week in Winter Park seems to be so crowded with worth while entertainment that one wonders what to choose from such a full calendar. When trying to make a decision the lectures of Dr. Evelyn Newman each Monday afternoon at 3:30 in All Saints' Parish House must have a definite place as it is an unusual privilege to hear this brilliant resume of current plays, books, and topics of recent interest. "Joseph and His Brothers," by Thomas Mann, the subject for last Monday, was clearly reviewed before a large and interested audience. Dr. Newman spoke of the many new books and plays which have been founded upon Bible stories of the Old Testament; the book under discussion being the fascinating story of Joseph, his forefathers, inherited traits, and family loves, hates, greed and deceit. It is the beginning'of a trilogy, the second now ready for publication. Thomas Mann is a German, not expelled, but self-exiled because he wishes to be able to express his philosophy and live according to his ideals. His great admiration for America is built upon the facts of our love for humanity and liberty. The subject of the next lecture, February 4th, will be H. G. Wells' Experiment in Autobiography. Winter Park Music Club The Winter Park Music Club is a, new organization in Winter Park this year and is primarily a study club, whose members are women lovers of music interested in singing. Eligibility to the club consists of possessing the ability to "carry a tune" and the desire to devote one hour a week to music study. The club meets every Monday morning at 10 o'clock, and during the month of February will meet at the Hess Studios, 192 Brewer avenue, as the former place of meeting, the Woman's Club, will be used for the Art Exhibit during that time.

I. Woodley, of Mineola, Fla., chairman of Citizenship, and Miss Loretta Salmon, of Winter Park, chairman of International Relations, were speakers at the Sanford Women's Club on Tuesday, representing the Federated Women's Clubs of the State. Mrs, Woodley's subject was "Citizenship." Miss Salmon gave an address covering her recent trip of six months in South America which was illustrated with sixty slides provided by the Pan-American Union. Yesterday (Friday) Miss Salmon spoke to the students at the High School in Orlando. One of the most essential necessities which our winter guests, from the North, buy at the local shops and about which they should be most particular, is their shoes. It is very pleasing for them to find in Orlando a shoe store where they can be fitted in a recognized shoe of national reputation, the Walk- Over, for men and women, and find a full line of styles in all sizes, including narrow widths. The Walk- Over shoe store was established in 1923, and is owned and operated by experienced shoe men, who are local residents and taxpayers of Orange County. Winter Park Topics CHARLES F.

In Thursday morning's lecture, "Russia and Communism," Dr. Martin gave a short history of the teachings of Karl Marx, which supplied the foundation of socialism. His ideas found expression in many countries but especially in Russia where divisions of class were most extreme and where the poor suffered hopeless oppression. Tolstoy made a practical application of his socialistic views by giving his land to the peasants, but was laughed at as a fanatic. The Bolshevik revolution startled the whole world into realization of the growth of communism and since the end of the war no country has been free from its influence. The experiments of Soviet Russia in industry, agriculture and education, and in community work and living, have been watched with great interest by all the other nations. They have shown that government in business, and government the whole of business, can be worked. In education the greatest strides have been made. The children being the hope of the future receive most attention and while we deplore some of their teachings it is not our business to pass judgment upon their domestic affairs. We may observe and examine the results where we see a nation having demolished the old order and trying a completely fresh one even though we may be sorry for the 160 million guinea pigs which are being subjected to the experiment. Next Thursday morning, subject "Italy and Fascism." Miss Davenport Discusses Italian Art at Seminar Miss Edith Fairfax Davenport spoke Thursday morning at the Art Seminar conducted in the central gallery of the Rollins College Art Studio on Ollie avenue. The subject was the Renaissance in Italy with reference to the painters represented in the Kress exhibition of Italian paintings now being shown at the Woman's Club. Her lecture was illustrated with reproductions from the Rollins art library of famous paintings, notably the frescoes by Giotto in the St. Francis chapel at Assisi, the Giotto campanile of the cathedral at Florence, and the celebrated "Madonna enthroned" of Cimabue. Miss Davenport included a discussion of the architectural, social and political background with special reference to Florence and Siena. A student of Raphael Collins and the first woman to be admitted to the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris, Miss Davenport is known also as the recipient of the Queen Elizabeth medal from the Belgian government bestowed in recognition of a poster painted by her to assist the Belgian Relief Fund during the World War.

HOLT Fired by the high ideals for world peace which have gripped his soul for many years, Hamilton Holt, stood like a modem Elijah last Sunday morning in the Rollins rostrum of Knowles Memorial Chapel and poured forth a passionate and unanswerable philippic against the warlike influences of the times which are threatening to sweep the world into another catastrophic maelstrom o:f hate and murder, It was a great day for Rollins, for Winter Park, for Florida, for our whole country when this great spirited publicist raised his voice in words that were republished throughout the length and breadth of the land and all over the world calling upon President Roosevelt . (Continued from page 4) CARLE BLENNER WON BY WINTER PARK By Edith Tadd Little Carle Blenner—the name at once brings to mind visions of fair women—and of masses of gorgeous flowers—flowers with the dew on them, flowers as you gather them in your garden, picking a blossom here and there, and then arranging them in your favorite bowl and placing them in your choicest window, and each time you glance at them, it rests your soul. —Women, gracious and beautiful, of a decade ago when skins were lovely and pearl-like and one did not snatch ten minutes to put on a complexion to match your mood. — (We did not have moods which we displayed to the public in those days). Carle Blenner came to Winter Park, saw, and was conquered by our lakes and trees—and is staying as the guest of Miss Margaret M. Grannis on Osceola avenue, and so again Winter Park is playing host to one of our country's truly great painters. He has been called the "famed exponent of the conservative school" of American painters, and those interested in honors and titles can get out their "Who's Who" and read several inches of the honors that have, been heaped upon this painter of "the good, the true, and the beautiful." Mr. Blenner is a portrait painter of men and women, his landscapes catch the sunlight and charm of this and foreign countries, and his paintings of flowers bring the garden right into the living rooms of (Continued on page 4) IN WINTER PARK'S LITERARY COLONY Winter Park has long been famous for the large number of literary, artistic and musical people who have made it their winter home. The number increases yearly. Among those who have already arrived are Ray Stannard Baker, better known to many people as David Grayson, the author of those delightful and whimsical essays of Adventures in "Friendship", "Contentment" and "Understanding." During the Peace Conference at Versailles, Mr. Baker was secretary to President Woodrow Wilson and later was appointed as his official biographer. Four large volumes (Continued on page 6) NEW UNIVERSITY CLUB GAINS MOMENTUM One of Winter Park's most promising organizations is the new University Club which has started off with two well attended meetings and developed a momentum that; greatly pleases the large number of college men who are spending the winter here. In a discussion of "Socialized Hospitalization," last Saturday evening, Drs. McGugan, Bull, Holt, Abbe, Oesterling1 and Stiles gave many enlightening aspects of the subject, and in the open forum fol- (Continued on page 4) For Calendar of Events see • page 5 On the shore of Lake Maitland at the Irving Bacheller Estate, a characteristic view of the scenery enjoyed by the residents of Winter Park. -Photo by Page.

The International Study Group of the American Association of University Women met Tuesday evening at the San Juan Hotel in Orlando with Dr. Evelyn Newman as the speaker. Page Four WINTER PARK TOPICS, FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 1935 CARLE BLENNER WON BY WINTER PARK (Continued from page 1) those fortunate enough to own them.—To one who has lived hectically through all the modernistic movements from Eaffaelli on, Mr. Blenner's views are a joy to listen to. "I have seen these modernist movements come and go. One school is hardly forgotten before another comes into view. Picasso and all the modern school are losing ground rapidly in France, where styles in art are set. Meanwhile the more conservative work continues to live." Such reassuring words to a generation that is a bit weary of "A nude falling downstairs"— or a bunch of decayed fruit on a cockeyed table, or the inside view of one's aura in fourteen primitive colors. Mr. Blenner pioneered in a movement which now, certainly to the lay mind, is the outstanding vehicle for artistic expression, the painting of ideal women's heads, the type which today graces the covers of three-fourths of the nation's popular magazines. Among his best known poitraits are listed H. E. H, The Duke of Cambridge, Lady Hamilton, Marquis Villabor, Senator Lawrence, Rear Admiral Philips, Woodward Phelps, Lucrezia Bori, and Miss Havemeyer. His work is in all the important galleries— and it is hoped to have a one-man show at the Winter Park Woman's Club. See Topics for later details. Mr. Blenner is a product of the Yale Art School. (Dr. Holt please note.) NEW UNIVERSITY CLUB GAINS MOMENTUM (Continued from page 1) lowing, Mr. Win. E. Stark won the unanimous approval of the whole assembly for his comparison of the situation of the medical profession with that of the teaching profession. In an entirely extemporaneous address he gave an able analysis of the social problem involved, recalling the times when men refused to pay taxes for the education of other men's children, and comparing such an attitude with that which declares the public health to be a public concern. The membership of the Club includes: Gen. Avery D. Andrews, U. S. Military Academy; Dr. A. J. Abbe, Harvard; Dr, T. M. Bull, Columbia; Miles M. Dawson, Transylvania; Rev. Oslo J. Price, Denison '94; Hiram Powers, Michigan; Dr. J. E, Spurr, Harvard '93; John E. Vincent, Alfred; Geo. E. Woodbury, Harvard; E. J, Ware, Michigan; Geo. Zug, Amherst; Lewis D. Hill, Harvard '94; Sherrod Soule, Amherst '85; Wm. F. Anderson, Ohio Wesleyan '84; Dr. Wm. L. Holt, Harvard '00; Arthur D. McGugan, M. D., Michigan '92; E. K. Rossiter, Cornell '75; William E. Stark, Harvard '95; David R. Moore, Univ. of Toronto '02; F. J. Lehman, Oberlin College '99; Ira Winthrop Travell, Williams '90; Charles F. Hammond, Rutgers '03; Winslow S. Anderson, Bates '21; William Melcher, Drury '11, Harvard '16, Wisconsin '31; Dr. K. L. Butterfield, Michigan State; Dr. W, S. Beard, Yale; H. W. Foster, Cornell; G. M. Whicher, Grinnell; William F. Yust, Central Wesleyan; Arthur DeLano Enyart, Ohio Wesleyan; H. Schenck, Cornell; J. H. Stoller, Union; W. E. Winderweedle, Claude S. Larzelere, Michigan and Harvard. "END WAR OR IT WILL END US," SAYS DR. HOLT (Continued from page 1) to accept the call of destiny and take action resolutely for peace rather than let the sinister forces of evil atrophy the spiritual life and Christian ideals of modern civilization. Dr. Holt specifically appealed to Roosevelt to "use his great power and prestige" to bring the United States into the World Court and League of Nations by joint resolution of Congress. He gave a masterly description of the international relations and the possible functions of the League and declared that the United States is today the key to the situation. "If we do not conquer war," he declared with all the vehemence he possessed, "war will conquer us." Spontaneous applause broke forth at the conclusion of the address, breaking all precedents. The service was one that will long be remembered by those who attended. The theme of peace was expressed beautifully in the responsive readings and the music, Mendelssohn's "How Lovely are the Messengers of Peace," being sung with a lofty inspiration by the choir, and the solo sung by Mrs. Charles F. Hammond, soprano, "Lead Kindly Light," giving a touch of the personal longing for spiritual direction "amid the encircling gloom" of the world impasse.

Sth, at Florida Villa by Mrs. Martha Fletcher Bellinger, who has just published a book on the same subject. Beginning with the earliest Greek plays the speaker carried her audience through medieval and religious plays to the early French and the clays of Moliere, Corneille and Racine.

CORDELL HULL COMING TO WINTER PARK Both Secretary of State Cordell Hull and Andre de Laboulaye, French ambassador to the United States, have accepted invitations to attend the Founders' Week celebration at Rollins College next month, President Hamilton Holt has announced.The celebration, which will beheld between February 21 and February25, will feature a program marking the semi-centennial year of Rollins. Secretary of State Hull will be the third member of President Roosevelt's cabinet to attend the Founders' Week exercises in the past two years. Last year, Attorney General Cummings and Secretary of Commerce Roper were guests, both contributing "in person" to the Rollins Animated Magazine and delivering Founders' Day addresses. Secretary of State Hull, President Holt announced, will be a contributor to the forthcoming issue of the Rollins Animated Magazine which will be "published" out - of - doors, Sunday afternoon, February 24. Ambassador de Laboulaye has accepted an invitation to be the guest' of honor and the principal speaker at a French dinner during the week. NEEDLEWORK GUILD'S LARGEST INGATHERING At the annual ingathering of the Needlework Guild of America, the local chapter of which Mrs. A. E, Dick is president, gave 1125 articles— all new—and one hundred thirty dollars cash. This was the largest ingathering since the formation of the guild. Of the articles given, eight hundred pieces were distributed in this locality at Christmas in connection with the Welfare Board of Winter Park. MANY AND VARIOUS ARE THE USES OF WINTER PARK'S CHAMBER OF COMMERCE A Chamber of Commerce is usually regarded as an association of business men to further business interests solely but in Florida it is a social and a civic feature, visitors being the greatest asset. The Winter Park Chamber of Commerce undertakes to provide homes, apartments, rooms, road maps and traveling information to all who inquire. Letters are received from every part of the United States and some foreign countries, and they are all answered, not by a ready-made printed letter, but in such a way that it is a personal affair and the recipient becomes a friend. Many hundreds of letters were sent out this season and to date 120 families and numerous individuals have come in response to this courtesy. Files are kept from registration and from electric light and telephone lists, thus visitors can find friends located here. The home-like bungalow, next to City Hall, buzzes with activity nearly all of the 24 hours. Visitors meet friends, play games, write letters and make general use of the rooms. The; Visitors Club has outgrown the building so holds its meetings at the Woman's Club' each Friday evening at eight o'clock, where music, cards, dancing and other entertainments are held. A game room has just been added to the main building of the Chamber, closed off by glass doors so that any business being held elsewhere will not be interrupted. The main building is used for meetings of Kiwanis, Welfare Association, Bird Club, Boat Club, Community Chorus, and many other groups. In fact the Chamber of Commerce is a clearing house for all civic projects, being non-political and working for the general welfare of Winter Park. Tennis courts and shuffleboard alleys surround the building and comfortable chairs and benches are abundant. Mr. Carter Bradford, the Secretary, feels such genuine interest in everyone's problems that he is confronted by many difficult and amusing questions, such as, how to stop neighbors' roosters from crowing at early dawn; requests to notify the garbage man, and even to finding a wealthy widower with matrimonial inclinations. Once he was called by phone and asked to feed the swans then on the lake, because they looked hungry, and recently a baby's milk bottle with electric attachments was brought, to be "plugged in" "for heating." If you have any questions troubling you, ask Mr. Bradford! —J. G. S. IN WINTER PARK'S LITERARY COLONY (Continued on page 6) have already been, published and we understand that several others are to follow. Mr. Joseph Lincoln, the delightful teller of Cape Cod tales, has spent several winters here at the Virginia Inn and is expected to return shortly, when his genial personality will be welcomed by his many friends. Dr. Albert Shaw, editor of the Review of Reviews, and Roger Shaw, foreign editor of the magazine, will return this month for their usual stay here. Robert Herrick, well known novelist and formerly head of the English department of the University of Chicago, has made Winter Park his winter home for several years. Winston Churchill, the famous author of "The Crisis" and many other historical novels, will as usual spend a large part of the season in Winter Park. Jessie B. Rittenhouse (Mrs. Clinton Scollard) is now a permanent resident of Winter Park, having recently purchased a home on Osceola Court. She is giving at the present time at Rollins her annual course on the Art of Poetry Writing, which has done much to stimulate creative work among the students. As president of the Poetry Society of Florida, which will hold its January meeting next Saturday at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Hamilton Holt, she will speak on "Poetry As an Art." Mrs. Mary Aldis, whose work as an artist, poet and dramatist is widely recognized and who always is creatively engaged, is here for the winter. Irving Bacheller is again at his beautiful home, "Gate o' the lies", and while his new novel has not yet been announced, we are sure that it is in the making. A number of distinguished college presidents and college professors are spending the season in Winter Park, several of whom are engaged in creative work. Dr. Charles Dabney, formerly chancellor of the University of Cincinnati, is seeing through the press his two volume work on "Education in the South." Dr. William Goodell Frost, for many years president of Berea College, Kentucky, who has a permanent home here, is putting the finishing touches to his autobiography. Few colleges in the country have so many creative artists on its English faculty as has Rollins. Among these are such well known writers as Dr. Richard Burton, the essayist and dramatic critic; Professor Edwin Grahberry, the novelist and short story writer, who recently won the 0. Henry prize; Dr. Evelyn Newman, the author of outstanding works on Contemporary Drama and Fiction; Professor Willard Wattles, the poet and journalist; and Dr. Fred Lewis Pattee, the novelist, poet, essayist and historian of American literature. Although associated with Rollins College, each one of these contributes greatly to the cultural activities of the community, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Ellerbe, whose short stories appear in many magazines, are here for the winter season. They have the happy faculty of collaborating in all their literary work. WINTER PARK TOPICS, FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 1935 As the Editor enters upon his second season of publication of Winter Park Topics he sees with much pleasure that the old friends made last season are again on the subscription list starting off again with Subscriber No. 1, Dr. Hamilton Holt. To those who might misconceive the function of this publication, we want to disclaim any intention of running a newspaper. Our thoughts run. more to the personality of the community, its attitudes and enjoyments, its aspirations and creative effort. We might call our paper an organ, not the business man's idea of the kind of paper that plays just the one old tune of "how to put it over," but an organ to tell in widely diversified modulations of the beauty of Winter Park and the charm of living here, occasionally perhaps some gentle allegrettos extemporized on the foibles of the day, and always ready to give expression to those of us who have a "message." With such ideals to follow, we expect to see and tell all that is worthy,—not only the affirmations that lead to a comfortable complacency but the challenging questionings that give concern to the minds and hearts of all thinking folk in these erratic times. "Marge Lockman," our special writer whose flair for graphic interviews was one of the features of Winter Park Topics last season, Is busy at the important post of Publicity Director for the City of Augusta. To repair the loss, your editor resorted to her talented mother, Mrs. Edith Tadd Little, who was prevailed upon, notwithstanding an already full quota of activities, to give us in this issue a sketch of our noted Winter Park guest, artist Carle Blenner. We are planning further temptations to keep Mrs. Little's vigorous literary gift in action. EXCELLENT SEASON FOR HOTELS INDICATED The promise of a bigger season for Winter Park was indicated by the early opening of the three large resort hotels, the Alabama, Seminole and Virginia Inn, all of which registered guests from the early part of December. Inquiries from all parts of the country have poured in upon the managers and it is evident that Winter Park's hotels have established an extremely favorable reputation, and that accommodations will be at a premium.

Shippen.—Ed.] Taking a funny little two-horse vehicle around the city, in the afternoon, we noted the happy situation of Fez in a valley, with mountain streams flowing down through the city, cleansing it, and refreshing man and beast, with no power company to charge exorbitant rates. The slender minarets on the mosques, a muezzin calling to the faithful the hour of prayer five times a day, brought the life and devotion of Islam home to us. At the sunset hour this was most impressive, giving one to ponder the relationship of prayer to character, and the striking contrast between Christian and Mohammedan devotions. On our drive we picked green olives from overhanging trees, bitter as sloes, and peppery as tabasco. Three pomegranates we bought for two cents, and delicious almond cakes for a nickel. At one point we saw a string of camels on their way to be slaughtered for meat. At another we came upon an open-air market, with fakirs of all sorts, story-tellers surrounded by gaping crowds, snake-charmers allowing their squirming reptiles to bite them till the blood ran, and herdsmen offering goats for sale. The University of Fez offers students the privilege of remaining and studying so long as they like, but its curriculum, I understand, is confined to the Koran. No examinations disturb the peaceful tenor of life with these Moslem scholars. Living costs are so low one could study in Fez for twenty-five years, if he so chose, without spending what a Rollins student sometimes spends in a year. A young American artist whom we met told us he had been in Fez for some weeks living at a cost of three francs (about twenty cents) a clay, his lodgings furnished gratis by the French officials of Morocco. He said that Fez was beginning to show some signs of the new time spirit politically, for the Sultan of Morocco, visiting his capital recently, had been hooted at by groups of citizens, charged with being a servant of France,—something inconceivable a generation ago. It is not surprising, perhaps, that the French protectorate is not popular with nationalistic Moroccans, but the French are undoubtedly doing much for the country, building roads, developing engineering projects, and raising the standards of sanitation and living conditions, without forcing an alien civilization upon the people or interfering with their personal habits. On our way to and from Fez we passed through Mecknes, once a great city, now partly in ruins, built by Moulay Ismail, a powerful monarch reigning for over fifty years well into the 18th century. Astounding tales are told of him as an autocratic potentate. If we think of Mussolini and Hitler as ruthless dictators we may well contrast them with Moulay Ismail who enjoyed cutting off the heads of slaves standing near him to test his swordsmanship, who maintained a body-guard of 150,000 blacks, who brought together 30,- 000 criminals from distant parts to build his walls and fifty palaces, who gave hundreds of wretched Christian captives to feed his lions, who strangled many of his own daughters. This lurid record of unbridled tyranny is said to be well attested, a savagery long surviving that of the Spanish Inquisition. To turn again to Spain, the Moor has left his indelible mark upon southern Spain, in physiognomy, in language, in manners, and in the comparatively guarded and secluded life of Spanish women today, Seville, however, as distinct from Moorish Granada, is more purely Spanish. The cathedral surely deserves all the praise Dr. Ralph Adams Cram gives it as one of the noblest of Christian shrines. While its exterior is marred by ugly plasteresque (late Renaissance) additions, the interior is tremendously impressive in its height and length, its great double aisles, and beautiful vaulting. At the south end of the transept is the striking monumental tomb of Columbus, the ashes of the great admiral being contained in a bronze casket borne on the shoulders of the majestic figures of the kings of Arragon, Castile, Leon and Navarra, their bronze robes richly emblazoned and gilded. The monument is doubtless too realistic to be in perfect harmony with its Gothic surroundings, and may be criticized by the purist, but it is nevertheless highly original and compelling. I am persuaded that strict logic and consistency in architecture lead one astray. Many a creation may violate accepted canons and yet be a work of art. Sitting near the Columbus memorial during the high mass on a Sunday morning, I confess I was not a little moved, my historic imagination stirred even more than when standing by the exquisite marble effigies of Ferdinand and Isabella in the cathedral at Granada. (To be continued). RANDOM NOTES An exhibition of red chalk portraits and pencil sketches will be given by Faith Jones from February 19th to 26th at the Orchestra Tea Room, 332 N. E.

FLORIDA WEATHER INSPIRES GUITERMAN The following little elegy by our only Arthur Guiterman appeared at the top of the Conning Tower in the New York Herald Tribune a few clays ago, and for the benefit of those who may not have seen it we reprint the lines: UNPRECEDENTED WEATHER (Yes, it's already much warmer) It's freezing in Florida! frostily frigid; The ferns and the flame-vine are frozen quite rigid; The faint-hearted Fahrenheit's fitfully falling, The fate of the flowers is fairly appalling. The face, feet, and fingers are bitterly blighted, The furnace is fueled, the fagot is lighted. But firm is the faith of each friendly informer, Unfailing and fond, that it soon will be warmer; And all the community's braver and bolder Because California's consolingly colder. —Arthur Guiterman.

ALFRED HUTTY SHOW AT ROLLINS ART STUDIO There is now on exhibition at the Rollins Art Studio on Ollie avenue a very delightful show of etchings and drypoints by Alfred Hutty, internationally known painter and etcher. Mr. Hutty has studios at Charleston, S. C, and in Woodstock, N. Y., and his etchings are represented in many important art collections including those of the Chicago Art Institute, the Library of Congress, the Cleveland Museum of Art, the New York Public Library, the Los Angeles Museum, the Bibliotheque Nationale in France, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the British Museum, the Gibbes Art Gallery, in Charleston, and many private collections. Mr. Hutty has received many awards and prizes for his etchings, and is a member of the Allied Artists of America, the National Arts Club, the Salmagundi Club in New York, the English Society of Graphic Arts, London, the American Society of Etchers, the American Water Color Society, and several other important art organizations. Among his etchings which will be seen at the studio are "Smythe Gate" Charleston, "Burnham Beeches" (England), "Sussex Pines", "Old St. Michaels, Charleston", and his well known "Wives of Fishermen, He de Noirmoutier." The drypoints on exhibition include a portrait of Dean Arthur Fleming West of Princeton, "Old Hastings, England", "Mountain Birches", "Nantucket Thorn Trees", "Caiolina Pines", and his "Old Sycamores," which "was included in "Fine Prints of the Year." These etchings will be shown for about two weeks, and all are cordially invited to attend the exhibition. The Rollins Studio is open every afternoon except Sunday from four until six.

No. 5169 Typical of Dr. Holt's breadth of view and of Winter Park's progressive spirit were the meeting's conducted by Catholic priest, Jewish rabbi and Protestant minister under the auspices of Rollins. The keynote of the meetings was the impossibility of preventing or doing away with conflict of religious views, and yet the feasibility of respecting the views of others. At the Annie Russell Theatre on Wednesday evening last Rabbi M. S. Lazaron, Father T. L. Riggs and Rev. E. R. Clinchy conducted a most remarkable and inspiring meeting which seemed to promise the opening of a new era of toleration in religious beliefs. Many questions from the students were answered without loss of doctrinal Integrity and yet the breadth of humanitarianism common to all faiths was most impressive. The meeting was brought to a beautiful close by the benediction of Rabbi Mendes of the Spanish Portuguese Synagogue of New York.

A special meeting of L'Alliance Francaise was held at the Alabama Hotel Tuesday evening in honor of Count Serge de Fleury, guest of Baron and Baroness d'Estournelle. Count de Fleury gave a talk "What Constitutes a Modern Diplomat?" a brilliant and interesting discussion of international affairs from the time of Napoleon and Tallyrand. Before the meeting Baron and Baroness d'Estournelle gave a dinner for their distinguished guest, and after the discussion went to the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Noyes, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Powers, Miss Leonard, Mrs. La Venture and Mrs. Ralph Lasbury, where they were informally entertained. Count de Fleury was returning to his diplomatic post in Washing-ton after having been on a government mission to Havana. Bishop William F. Anderson, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, who is giving a series of lectures on "The Modern Man and His Bible," during the season, under the auspices of Rollins College, will discuss "St. Paul and His Epistles," next week. The lectures are being given each Tuesday morning at 11 o'clock in the Winter Park Congregational Church. There is no admission charge, but a collection is taken for the benefit of the College Scholarship Fund. The series will end on March 6th. Dr. Evelyn Newman gave a brilliant review of H. G. Wells' "Experiment In Autobiography" at the Parish House on Monday afternoon, February 4th. Discussing this modern prophet, Dr. Newman believes him to be a man of destiny with a sincere vision of a new world order in which cooperation replaces competition and gain gives way to service. She touched briefly on the best known of the fifty or more books he has published, by which some critics believe this era will be guaged and measured in the future. Dr. Newman's next lecture will be on Monday, February 11th, when she will speak on Stefan Zweig's "Biography of Erasmus." Fascism Expressing Mussolini's Personality Dr. Martin's lecture, "Italy and Fascism," filled the big Congregational Church, aisles, choir and balcony, with many standing. The sign S R O might easily have been hung out. "To understand Fascism," says Dr. Martin, "it is essential to understand Mussolini." A brief review of his life, from his obscure newspaper days to the present, shows love of country an obsession with him. He was the one strong man who knew what he wanted at a time when no strong man was in power and the government shaky and uncertain. He has shown a consciousness of the needs of the people and no one can accuse him of being a tool of the rich. But dictatorship and nationalism have throughout history developed into militarism and Dr. Martin thinks Mussolini is going fast along the road that brought Napoleon to disaster and expulsion. Mussolini believes there is neither utility in, nor possibility of permanent peace. He believes war is always a possibility when a strong motive, spiritual or ideal, is aroused. "Why, then," Dr. Martin asks, "does he take any interest in the League of Nations ? As well might the village soak recommend joining the local prohibition society!" In Italy every corporation or guild is composed of members of the Fascists: the head of each corporation or guild is Benito Mussolini. The Prime Minister and head of each department—war, navy, interior, etc, is B. Mussolini. He is the Poo Bah of that country and in his reaching out for a larger place in the sun, shows many traits of the former militaristic gentleman, the Ex-Kaiser Wilhelm.

ATKINSON TO LECTURE TUESDAYS ON "RELIGION AND INTERNATIONAL LIFE" Dr. Henry A. Atkinson, chief "executive officer of the Church Peace Union and the World Alliance for International Friendship Through the Churches, is expected to arrive at Rollins College this coming week-end to give a series of public lectures and to join the Winter Term faculty. As a member of the faculty, Dr. Atkinson will work with President Hamilton Holt in conducting a course on "War and Peace in International Relations," the preliminary work of this course having been conducted these past few weeks under the direction of Miss Carolyn Heine, '33. Dr. Atkinson will also be associated with Professor A. Buel Trowbridge in conducting a course on "Religion and International Life."

In this series, it is announced, Dr. Atkinson will discuss "Religion and World Peace," "Islam and the Near East," "India and Its Religions," "China, Japan and the Religions of the Far East," and "A World Program for Religion." Dr. Atkinson is well known at Rollins -where he gave the Commencement address last June. From 1911 to 1918 he served as special service secretary for the Congregational Churches of the United States, resigning this post to become affiliated with the work of the Church Peace Union. Since 1919, he has travelled extensively in Europe, spending more than half of his time each year in developing the work of the Alliance, visiting the Councils that have been established and forming new points of contact with the religious and educational institutions in all of these countries. HOTEL ALABAMA NEWS A large audience listened Sunday evening, February 3, to a concert by the Alabama Trio directed by Hila Knapp and supplemented by a selection of songs presented by the Rollins Double Quartet.

The editor of Winter Park Topics believes that it might be interesting to know just why so many persons from widely different localities like Winter Park better than other places in the South. Is it a question of climate, comfortable living, literary atmosphere, or for no reason at all? The editor thinks that an expression of these sentiments would serve to make all of us appreciate Winter Park in new, and perhaps unsuspected ways. Letters from our readers will be welcome.
