MAURICE MAETERLINCKMaurice Maeterlinck, B e l g i a n

dramatist and poet, was born inGhent on August 29, 1862. He cameof an old Flemish family and hadthe medieval mystics in his blood,which explains his strong leaningto mysticism defined in his verseand drama. Among his most fa-mous works is "Pelleas et Meli-sande", the play which was set tomusic by Claude Debussy and per-formed for the first time as anopera at the Opera Comique inParis. "Monna Vanna", producedin 1902, established Maeterlinck asa practical playwright, but it wasthe play, "The Blue Bird", whichcarried his name to all parts ofthe world.

of the notable contributors to for-mer issues of the Animated Mag-azine, is the most popular novelistnow using the Florida scene as abackground for their stories.

The first concert proved thatchamber music has many staunchsupporters in Winter Park. Manyrequests were made that the firstconcert be repeated for the bene-fit of those who were unable to at-tend.

The aim of the group is to pre-sent as many interesting works aspossible, hoping in coming seasonsto augment their number so as topresent unusual combinations em-ploying clarinet, harp, oboe andcontra-bass.

The program Saturday eveningwill include the Brahms ClarinetTrio, the Quartet in A minor bySchubert and the "Lark Quartet"by Haydn.

The purist who may be offendedat the thought of substituting aviola for a clarinet in the Brahmstrio must remember that Brahmshimself wrote the optional violapart. This work has probably hadmore performances in the laterversion than it has had in the ori-ginal,
