Friday and Saturday Only

The Prelude In C sharp minor by Sergie Vaesedievitch Rachmaninoff is

one of twenty-four Preludes and is perhaps the most popular of his compo

sitions. The principal motive of three

tones bursts forth in a bold fortissimo, and' is repeated throughout the first

part,- gradually diminishing to piano. Pianissimo chords on the after-beat form -an accompaniment and counter melody. The second theme, a descending chromatic tune of four tones, sung also in the bass a fourth lower, increases in animation until it reaches

a frenzied climax. The accompani

ment is an agitated triplet figure. The

first motive returns in ponderous octaves and full chords. Through the last eight measures the tone gradually

fades' to" an ' extreme pianissimo. Mr.

Rachmaninoff played: this Prelude for an encore, when he was in Ricfimond a year ago. He, was born In 1873 In Novgorod, Russia. His mother was his first teacher, and at the age of nine he entered the Conservatory in Petrograd. Later he was transferred to Moscow, where as a pupil of Siloti for piano and Areneky for theory, he won the gold medal for piano playing and highest honors for composition. He is one of the most renowned of the contemporary piano virtuosi, and is equally famous as a composer. He has enriched the literature of the piano more than anyone since Liszt and Brahms.

Cashing of War Stamps

Is Handled Rapidly By City Postoffice Officials Appreciation of the rapidity with which the Richmond postoffice handled the war savings stamp redemptions here is evident when a comparison is made with the time It has taken other cities of the size of Richmond to meet demands of stamp owners. One Indiana city has but recently anndunced that stamp owners who obtained receipts for their stamps Jan. 9, 10 and 11 could now cash same. The local postoffice has, in many in

stances, paid cash on demand, and where interim receipts were issued payment on stamps surrendered for redemption has been made within a week to 10 days from the date of the issuance of the receipts. t j It is estimated that more than ?200,000 worth of Btamps have been taken in through the local office since announcement was first made of the cashing of the stamps of the 1918 series. Very few registered accounts remain out at this time.

The Russian working girl earns 90,000,000 rubles a week, which in American money amounts to about J 4.
