Every licensee shall not. in his place of amusement, allow any person to wear upon the head a covering which obstructs the view of the exhibition or performance in such place of any person seated in any seat therein provided for spectators. it being understood that a low head covering without projection, which does not obstruct such view, may be worn.

Mexico ^MEXICO CITY . capital ofoAztec emperors . of Viceroys ofNew Spain, of Mexican presidents and dictators! No other city in either North or South America has so old or romantic a history; no other has so truly the air of a great Old World capital. Its streets and plazas are as genuinely Spanish as those of ^Madrid and Seville; its restaurants are distinguised alike for their smartness and their cuisine; its enormous cathedral surpasses many a reno'wned cathedral of Europe in its architecture and its richness of treasures. RAYMOND-WHITCOMB LAND CRUISES TO MEXICO Complete round trips—traveling on the Raymond-Whitcomb Land Cruise Trains with special recreation car, bedrooms and private baths. Each cruise will have 11 days in Mexico — 8 days in Mexico City, and will visit Chapultepec and Guadalupe-Hidalgo, Puebla and Cuernarvaca, the famous floating gardens at Xochimilco, the great Aztec Pyramids at Teotihuacan and historic Monterey.

HANCOCK 7820 BOSTON KENMORE 2870 also at THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF BOSTON 67 Milk Street Liberty 4900 — Concerto Grosso No. 10, in D minor . George Frideric Handel (Born at Halle on February 23, 1685; died at London, April 14, 1759) Handel's twelve grand concertos for strings were composed be- tween September 29 and October 30, 1739. The tenth bears the date October 22. The London Daily Post of October 29, 1739, said : "This day are published proposals for printing by subscription, with His Majesty's royal license and protection, Twelve Grand Concertos, in Seven Parts, for four violins, a tenor, a violoncello, with a thorough-bass for the harpsichord. Composed by Mr. Handel. Price to subscribers, two guineas. Ready to be delivered by April next. Subscriptions are taken by the author, at his house* in Brook Street, Hanover Square, and by Walsh." In an advertisement on Novem- ber 22 the publisher added, "Two of the above concertos will be per- formed this evening at the Theatre Royal, Lincoln's Inn." The This was the little house, No. 25 Lower Brook Street (now Brook Street), in which Handel lived from 1725 until his death. Here he composed the "Messiah,*" "Saul," and other oratorios. "After his death his valet rented the house and made the most of Handel's long residence to secure lodgers." "Sydney Smith lived in this house in 1835" (George H. Cunningham's "London." Handel lived for three years in Old Burlington House, erected by the third Earl of Burlington, amateur architect and friend of Pope.) In the rate-book of 1725 Handel was named owner, and the house rated at £35 a year. Mr. W. H. Cummins, about 1903, visiting this house, found a cast-lead cistern, on the front of which in bold relief was "1721. G. F. H." The house had then been in possession of a family about seventy years, and various structural alterations had been made.

CommEntS by PhilliP huSChEr ne hundred years ago, the Chicago Symphony paid tribute Oto the centenary of the birth of Franz Liszt with the pro- gram of music Riccardo Muti conducts this week to honor the bicentennial of the composer’s birth. Today, Liszt’s stature in the music world seems diminished—his music is not all that regularly performed, aside from a few works, such as the B minor piano sonata, that have never gone out of favor; and he is more a name in the history books than an indispensable part of our concert life.

    NEW STYLE A A. A prophet may be without honor in his own country, but the litem&l)smlm PIANOS, on the contrary, are held in the highest esteem by all who know them. Mr. George W. Chadwick, Director of the New England Conserva- tory of Music, says of these pianos: " I wish to express my great satisfac- tion with the Grand Pianos of your manufacture, which I am now using. The tone is very musical, and seems to improve with use. The action is particularly even and firm, and I have never had a piano which stood so well in tune. The piano seems to combine power and beauty of tone to a remarkable extent, and I congratulate you on the production of so fine an instrument." This is praise, indeed ; but that it is fully merited will be at once dis- covered by every who gives his attention to the subject. Illustrated Catalogue mailed on application. 146 Boylston Street.
