HEIFETZ IS AT BEST IN FRANCK SONATA Violinist Tours Passion and Musical Imagination Into Playing. CH0TZINOFF AT TIANO Auditors Enjoy Also 'touch's Scoth Fantasia Dedicated to Sarasatc. The Oaar Franck sonata season eprned In rull vigor on October 18. Of course the sonata referred to Is that for piano and violin, which was played a week ago by Thelma Given and Richard Haiseman. Yesterday It opened the of young Jascha Helfetz nt Carr.rgle Hall, the pianist being Samuel Chotzlnoft. The sonata Is a sturdy plant and will endure the snows of many musical win- ters, Many composers and violinists have said noble things about It. Paul Dukas, Vincent d'Indy, Eugene Ysa'ye, to whom It Is dedicated, and others ; but to spoken or written word can tell the glory of this deeply felt and masterf- ully wrought composition. Carnegie Halt's audience yesterday afternoon probably did not go to listen to the tone poem of the Belgian genius, but to hear the violin playing o Helfetz. The listeners profited more rlchlv than they could have expected to, for Helfetz had not at any previous appearance poured Into his playing so much of pas-ilo- n. eo much ot musical Imagination. His part In the sonata was performed with Influential eloquence, which was made possible by the exquisite beauty ef his tone and the virility of his bow arm. Mr. Chotzlnoff assisted the vio linist with a sympathetic treatment of the piano part On the programme as the second num- ber was Bruch's Scotch fantasa, dedi- cated to the Spanish violinist. Sarasate. Mr. Helfetz did not play it precisely as Barasate did. yet there were certain traits of his presentation that resembled those of the Spaniard's. The purity of tone, tho elegance of style and the trans- parency of the passage recalled Sara-stt- a. But Mr. Hetfetz's technic is even better than that of the older artist. The usual groups of short numbers followed. Mr. Helfetz complimented his countryman. Rachmanlnov, by Including one of his, and the American, Cecil Burl- eigh, by scintillating through his \Moto Jerpetuo.\ The audience filled every seat and all the standing room In the hall.

What he does for himself matters little; how he bene- fits others matters much. If a speaker awakens one spark in .a hearer's mind, he is a good speaker. If a book arouse a single thought m a reader, it is a good book. If a teacher drives home indelibly one point of a lesson, he is a good teacher. Life is not merely a succession of days, a number of years. The best calendars are often deeds done, work accomplished, promises fulfilled. Theodore. Roosevelt was a great man, as a speaker, as an author, as a teacher. As one of his admirers, I lay upon his memory's bier a leaf of thanks and grati- tude for the man who made me think of greater and better things. , What he did for himself matters little; mankind will remain his debtor for all time. frfei one s notes OF the social, world.
