J — Woman’s Editorial — Man Taking Interest in Wife’s Work k by mbs. Walter ferguson It is not only complimentary but pleasant to us to find that so many of the men are concerned about our working too hard. A great hullabaloo is being made because the mother of the race is out in the great world competing with the lordly male. It has been decided by authorities that our nervous and physical and mental beings cannot bear the hardships to vhich they are subjected in the marts of Trade. It is with a commendatory and chivalrous anxiety, therefore, that the men view \our labors outside the home. Men Disapprove This thing of having a woman go ■out at nine to a luxuriously appointed office and take dictation for hours at a time appeal's a pitiful state of affairs to the stalwart males. They can’t bear to observe us selling insurance, or writing advertisements, or clerking in stores or appearing as counsel in courts of Jaw. Their arguments, of course, are fine and worthy. Being women and potential mothers, we have not the strength to keep up with these activities. We are 90 conconstructed that our energy is not able to cope with the colossal labors at which they have been engaged for so long a time, and for which they have been endowed with special resistance. This would all sound a great deal better, however, if it had been started sooner. So far as we have been able to find out, few wails arise in the cotton belt when the women must drag heavy sacks down the fields in the autumn and keep up their housework and look after the children besides. Long factory hours added to family cares of the poorer housewives has not, as yet, incited such pity in the heart of the manufacturer that he is willing to pay ihis men employes enough to keep their women and children at home. Farmer's Wife Toils Nobody howls because the farmer’s wife has to get up at dawn and toil until long after dark at backbreaking labor. There is no grave concern felt in the cities because some women of the tenements who slave at home all day must go out when evening falls and do janitor work half the night while the men sleep peacefully in their beds. No great excitement is felt for the woman who is overworked at home. It is because we are taking up their attractive jobs that the rub comes in. Hundreds of thousands of women have died in this country from child-bearing and domestic work, but that was considered as being in their line of duty. Falling in our tracks is all right. It is only when we fall in theirs that the men protest.

Finston Comes to Be Guest Conductor of Indiana Orchestra for the Inaugural Show Saturday Night

Nathaniel Finston, general musical director for the Publix Theaters, will have the honor of being the guest conductor at the inaugural performance of the Indiana Theater, Saturday night. Mikhail Stolarevsky has the honor of being the regular conductor of the Indiana orchestra, but he will on the inaugural night turn over his baton to Finston. On the next day, what is known as the regular opening of the policy of the new theater, Stolarevsky will have the baton. Will let Finston talk about himself as follows: “I received my early training in public school and for a time attended City College of New York. It was my grandfather’s brilliant idea to have me study the violin to keep me off the streets, so he went to a pawn shop and bought my first violin for just $2. Os course, this violin was big enough for him to use it also, as he was by this time longing to play again. My first impression of music was hearing my grandfather play by ear. He tried to teach me to play by ear, but could not very well make himself understood by me. “One day he gave up in disgust and got a violin teacher for me. 1 was then about 8 years old. I studied about one year, but could not interest myself in music and gave it up. “Aboyt a year later, a friend of the family, Gusikoff, father of the well-known violinist, Michael Gusikoff, advised me to take the violin and go up to one of his friends, the man to whom I think f I owe my whole musical career. This man never made a public mark, but certainly devoted his best efforts on his violin pupils. This gentleman is Solomon Elin, a graduate of the Moscow Conservatory, a member of the New York Symphony and such organizations for years. “Elin had ah excellent orchestral knowledge, which served so marvelously in later years. I studied the violin with him for five consecutive years, during which period I also studied a little harmony and counterpoint with Henry J. Falk, a first prize pupil and graduate of Leipzig. Started to Work “Very shortly afterward I joined the musical union and started playing in an orchestra. My first professional engagement was at a Fifth Ave. hotel, In those years, the hotel orchestra played very fine musical literature, where one could become acquainted with standard overtures, operas, comic operas, grand operas, ballet music, etc., a routine which in recent years became impossible because of the public trend and love for popular and jazz music as against that fine repertoire. “My next engagement was with the Volpe Orchestra, an orchestra banded together for training young men in symphony works. During this period I played Sam Franko Old Music Concerts, Palestrina, Romo, Mindel, Gretry and Bach were the composers in the repertoire. “Then cair e \the Russian Symphony Orchestra, under Modest Altschuler, in which organization I played for five years, a complete Russian repertoire. In this or-

Mikhail Stolarevsky On Sunday at tne regular opening of the new Indiana Theater, Mikhail Stolarevsky will assume the directorship of the Indiana orchestra. He has been directing the orchestra of the Circle

ganization I started second violin, and ended up concert master. “After this I played for two years in Boston opera, during which period a repertoire of forty-five operas was performed. Caplet, Conti and Weingartner were the conductors of that company. Following this I came to New York City and played for two years with the New York Symphony under Walter Damrosch, an assistant concert master. “In the subsequent two years I became a member of the New York Philharmonic under Josef Stransky, a marvelous performing body of orchestral players. During my orchestra years, which in all were eleven, for symphonic and operatic w’orks, I also played under Safonoff, Bodansky, Gabrilowitch and Ernest Bloch. “For many years I played in strong quartets containing the following well-known musicians: Modest Altschuler, Sokoloff, Victor Kolar, Gusikoff, Saslavsky, Maximilian Pfizer, Gregory "skolnick. Sam Franko and Spargur. “About this time, the motion picture theater started making a bid for prominence. Having played for eleven consecutive years in symphonic orchestras, operas, salon

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

orchestras, quartets, and similar organizations, I became dissatisfied with the future, and an idea struck me that I could possibly utilize my vast musical experience, and I applied for'a position to Hugo Reisenfeld. During the first asso. iation of Mr. Reiscnfeld and Mr. Rothafcl, at the Trilby Theater in New York, I was engaged as one of the conccrtmasters. Was Liked Reisenfeld liked my work and asked me if I would be interested in an engagement he had in mind. The Rialto Theater at that time was in the process of construction. Not knowing that the Rialto Theater would be what it ultimately developed into, I told him I did not see my w'ay clear at that time to sever my connections with the orchestra unless there was a real future. “He asked me if I would be interested in conducting, and then it dawned on me I could give my violin playing in exchange for an opportunity to conduct. “A year and a half later I was engaged as assistant conductor at the Rilato Theater. During this period I took up an advanced course of music under Pietro Floridia, and

I studied composition and orchestration at this time. “Two and a half years later I was engaged by the Capitol Theater, New York, and for the first time in the history of the movie theater I was given a seventy-four-man symphony orchestra. “Here I was in complete musical i charge, during which period we successfully performed twelve operas in English. Some of the repertoire included “Cavalleria,’’ “Pagliacci,” “Lohengrin,” Hansel and Gretel,” “Tannhauser,” etc., and the first English performance of “Levilli,” by Puccini. “From this position I went to Chicago, where I remained for five years with the firm of Balaban and Katz, who at the present time are given credit for a most marvellous rise of the movie theater,” he said. THERE BE ANNOUNCING AT THE PALACE TODAY A man by the name of Burke is announcing the acts on the new bill at the Palace. Many times I have "passed out” when such things have been done, but this man has that “something” which makes it possible for him to put over each act. When it comes to his own time on the bili, Burke carries on his own way. He has material which he dresses up in his own personality. He brings on a pianist. Burke admits that in private life said pianist is his wife. The result on the stage is that even the pianist becomes a real personality. Jungle Land is inhabited by those fellows who twist themselves into I many odd shapes. Good showmanship here. The Wilton Sisters are again present during the regular stuff in a high-class way. They have learned the fine art of making themselves wanted and then some on the stage. [ Frank Stanley and company work i out the idea of two girls falling in j love with one fellow. Before the idea jis finished there is dancing and song after a fashion. Russell and Durbin work on the idea that the man of the team can make a dancer out of any girl in a few' minutes. His comedy attack just about ruins his offering. A different mental approach would do wonders for this act. The movie is “Remember,” with Dorothy Phillips. Other theaters today offer: “The Poor Nut,” at Keith's; “Sure Fire,” at English’s: Nighthawks, at the Lyric: Isharn Jones at I the Circle; “Ain't Love Funny,” at the Isis; "Tillie the- Toiler,” at the Apollo, and "The Whirlwind of Youth,” at the Ohio.
