DARNALL In a Bucharest, Rumania, ceme- tery is a tombstone bearing the name of Adolf Hittler, a Jewish hotel porter, who died in 1902. The stone also bore an inscription, half Rumanian, half Hebrew, reading: “Love thy neighbor as thyself.” It will be noted that the name Hittler is spelled with two t's. In addition to their other hard- ships, British air shelter dwellers have been annoyed by sightseeing visitors. A few days ago the au- thorities put a stop to “shelter slumming” by curious persons.

Feb. 24——A strange animal, the like of which never has been sccn in this re- gion, was reported to be roaming the bottomlands the Little Colorado River, of here.

Miss Patterson At Paderewski’s Concert (Newark (N.J.) Evening News) Fifty years ago eight girls and achaperone from a_ school | in} Brooklyn sat in a row at Carnegie Hall. Fourteen-year-old Lucile | Patterson of Key West. Fla., now an East Orange resident, was one of them. She wore a dress her mother had just sent North. It was pink broadcloth, almost to her ankles, and had a yoke and short sleeves of tiny pink chiffon ruffles. It} was a wonderful dress, even among the satins and © diamond stomachers of the older women, and it was a wonderful night. | She was hearing Ignace Jan Pad- | erewski in his first American} concert. Lucile, the school’s star musi- cian, had just learned the Polish | pianist’s Minuet. Her whole being! anticipated the moment when} she would hear him play it. He just had to play the Minuet! He did, but not until his final) encore, | he audience made him, by chanting Minuet! Minuet!” re- ports the former Miss Patterson, who 10 years later became Mrs, | Clifford B. O; She and Mr. Oakley live | Memories of this concert were refreshed this week for her be-| cause of the Nutional Paderewski Testimonial during which orches- | tral groups and musical organiza- tions throughout this country are celebrating the golden anniver- | sary of his American debut of} November, 1891.
