-YOUNG CLARINETIST V PLAYS BRILLIANTLY IN OPENING RECITAL

BY EMMA L. FETTA. The clarinet performance of Marius Fossenkemper,' who was presented by the music department of Earlham in recital Friday night, was a marked success for the young man. The clarinet is considered a difficult instrument as well as the richest woodwind, and therefore a solo program is rarely attempted by students. In Richmond this was, perhaps, the first one-man recltaj of its kind. The program was well chosen, and interesting. Probably every one of Fossenkemper's auditors who were conversant with Mozart's remarkable "Concerto in A Major", which he composed shortly before his death for the famous clarinetist Stadler. were glad the young clarinetist played this composition. It is in three movements, the allegro, the adagio and the rondo allegro. Fossenkemper's rendition was splendid. His suppleness of expression; clearness of technique; diversity of

tone were creditable to a much older and more experienced player. Shows His Ability. Brahms's "Sonato in F. Minor" Illustrated the clarinet's multiplicity of effects. Four movements, the allegro, tippasionato, andante un poco adagio, allegretto grazloso and the vivace were each given with strength, richness, and marked lack of imperfections. This number's length and difficulty brought out the virtuosity of the young player to advantage. Two airs from the "Bohemian Girl" by Balfe; Hoff's "Adagio", and a Chopin waltz closed the Fossenkemper program. Lighter and attractive were Ahe "Heart Bowed Down" and "Then jBoull Remember Me" from the popf ular opera, but the "Adagio", was one of the most beautifully done numbers of the entire program. Almost perfectly mastered was this little number which displayed the clarinet's rich compass down to its most Incisive tone. Miss Helen Hadley, also a student at Earlham, accompanied Fossenkemper and did excellent work in two polo numbers, "The Lark" by Balakirew, and Reinhold's "Impromptu in C. Minor," showing to advantage her firm and brilliant technique and variety of expression. Compromise Action Ends Administrator's Suit in Preble Circuit Court EATON, O., Feb. 28. Compromise was effected Friday in common pleas court action brought by John H. Ehler, Jr., as administrator of the late Sarah A. Schlingman, against John J. Flora and others to recover $460.28 on a mortgage note. Mary Hunt and George Brenner, and others, effected a compromise in a partition action, which Involved two lots in Lewisburg, and the case was dismissed. Council of the village of West Elkton, in southeastern Preble county, has entered a five-year contract with the Mlddletown Lighting company for lighting the village streets with electricity. Citizens of the village have subscribed more than $250 to help the council pay for the service The service will also be used for commercial fad domestic purposes. File Ditch Petition. Petition has been filed with the county commissioners by D. N. Duke for construction of a county ditch in Washington township. SurveyB have been ordered. Rejuvination and reorganization of the Preble County Rural Mail Carriers' association is under way, following a long period of inactivity. The association has been temporarily reorganized by electing Roy Schlotterbeck, president, and C. C. Stump, secretary and treasurer. Permanent organization will be effected in a meeting to be held within the next two weeks. Agitation looking to establishment of a waterworks system has been taken up at Camden.

ing is desired to house the headquarters of the American Legion and other patrlotio organizations. - The committee also unanimously adopted the report of a subcommittee outlining a plan of action which calls for a state-wide campaign to create interest in support of action by the legislature to provide the memorial. The campaign is to begin at once and continue until the adjournment of the proposed session of the legislature. It was the sense of the meeting, although no formal action was taken regarding the matter, that not less than $10,000,-

FRED TOLINSON TO PRESIDE AT SIGMA CHI BANQUET Guy Wainwright, of Indianapolis, who was a lieutenant in the 150th field artillery of the Rainbow division, and who recently returned from a tour of England, France and Belgium where he has been studying business conditions, will be one of the speakers at the annual state banquet of the Sigma Chi fraternity at the Claypool hotel in Indianapolis, Saturday evening. Another speaker will be John L. H. Fuller, an alumnus of the Butler College chapter, who was in Petrograd, Russia, as a representative of the National City Bank of New York

during the Kerensky regime. Fuller

witnessed much of the street fighting and rioting when Kerensky was overthrown.

The national head of the Siema

elated while attached to a foreign

company; but usually it is from a French, English or Irish girl. "I hear from two little French children I met at the St. Hllaire," said a Richmond service man. "And one of the sweetest girls in France a native of Allamont writes to me, some girl!" affirmed another. My foreign correspondence goes and comes from an old couple who lived outside Paris. They were mighty good to me," remarked one. Only one has a Russian correspondent. He hastily assured the interviewer that she wasn't a Bolshevik, but a very peaceful maiden and oh, say, good looking. Irish girls seem to have been great favorites with the members of the United States navy.
