MONDAY, FEBRUARY 6. 1028 PAGE THREE THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Maria Christiana Gave Casals His Musical Training Cellist Here Tomorov Has Won Plaudits of Contemporaries in Europe The famous Spanish cellist, Pablo Caalas, who will be presented in the University auditorium the night of Feb. 7, recognized by the world at the annual unseen talent award was educated by the Sanjuan queen Maria Christina. Casals Disliked Brussels At the age of 16 he was sent to Brussels to study at the conservatory. This was made possible through a stipend furnished by the Queen. Casals found Brussels and the conservatory uncongenial and left for Paris. The Queen, angered by this action, cut off his allowance. They were estranged for a number of years before she asked them to leave. Casals possesses a unique token of her esteem. Some years ago he played for her at Court and she asked him to allow her to have his bow for a few days. It was returned with a gift of new trumpets, longing to the Queen set in the handie. A note of praise accompanied it. Plaudits of Musicians Such examples portray the esteem in which Canada is held by his country owen, and the following are a few examples from his writings. "He is the greatest interpretative artist I have ever heard."—Eugene Gruzny "Who can believe that who has ever drawn a bow."—Fritz Kreisel. "When the Russians speak of him, they speak of him as a JOOK."—Joseph S. Foster. Will Play Four Groups For his musical numbers at the concert Tuesday night, Mr. Canis will play four group numbers.

Color Printing Exhibit Displays Japanese Art A series of prints illustrating the method employed in the production of Japanese color prints are now on exhibitions at the Uptown upsatz Showroom-Tauber museum. There are also on exhibition about 50 prints by Hokusai, one of the great masters of Japanese color printing. Hokusai called himself "the old man mad about drawing." He published anything really good until after he was 70 years of age. By the time he had reached the age of 80 he felt that he W S G W You Are Assured Good food Prompt service Reasonable prices It is rather a pity to visit the Spencer-Thayer museum without making the acquaintance of Doctor Syntax, who is easily found and identified in the china closest to the left of the door, in the east room.

Perpetuated on Clews China The New Cafeteria (Memorial Building) Nothing is good enough but the best. On a large blue-printed Clwes plate one may discover the old gentleman "disputing his bill with his landlady," and on a 19-inch Chels platter, also in the dark blue print, one may discover that he is sitting next to his window to haugh at the plight of Put, who has fallen into a pond. Only 30 such illustrated platters in the Syntax design have so far been discovered, and some of them have sold in America for as much as $300. To learn something of Rowlandhous, you need a Doctor Syntax, it is necessary to visit the little library at the museum, where one may examine what remains of Syntax in Search of a Wife." This book relates the adventures of Doctor Syntax on one of his three famous novels: Rowlandhous, who in 1810 conceived the idea of a "pedantic old prig in a shoved hat" touring the country and cities in clubhouse, iins, and the like. When he showed his proposed series of drawings to Ackermann, a successful print seller of the Strand, that artist, wrote a letter to Combe, a profilerawk writer then 68 years old, and ordered him to write some narrative verse to fit the draw. He also drew an illustration of Combe and Richardson, ending only with the death of Combe in 1823, and resulting in the publication of "The Touches of Doctor Synnott." Doctor Syntax became so popular that race horses, hats, wigs, coats, and deurn know what were merits of the well-known Staffordshire potteries, R. and J. Clews, selzed upon the dress of a printed ware, much of which was sold in America. Existing pieces of Syntax had been in hundreds years ago, are among the Bowlandson, although recieves an wasteful, turned out an astonishing amount of work. He was a portrait painter and illustrator of considerable ability, and boasted of having "tightened the neck" by his first rate num-boar of-war." Possessed of a facile pen and a lively imagination, he could produce a finished picture in a few hours, and in the habit of holding his pen alive while bilingue chama; "I have played the fool, but—" holding up his read pen—"here is my resource." Several of his portraits were admitted to the Academy, and one was illustrated "The Vieur of Wakefield." Combe, his collaborator and friend, claimed to have written and edited upwards of one hundred books, compiled a quarter of the journals, and furnished 200 columns of matter to newspapers and magazines. For several years he received 200 pounds annually from the Pitt Museum; in 1976 he staffed the times. A sample of the voluminous verse which he wrote for the Doctor Syntax drawings is given in the 1984 edition of the illustration reproduced on the plate called "Doctor Syntax Dipitating His Bill Wit Win His Landlady," and in a few other works, requirements at this time of year. "Good woman, here, your bill retake And, prifitte, some abatement make, And, prifitte, some abatement make."

He died it the age of 90 years regretting that he could not live another 10 years so he might be even a better artist, but he never recognized everywhere recognized as the best Japanese prints ever produced. It would be too bad if somebody should unknowingly break a Syntaxua dish or a Nintendo game dishes. And there is, moreover, an ever present danger these days of falling into the company of a group of young people who are pelled to say something or other about old China. A visit to the Chinese restaurant suggests one pare one for such an extremity. "I surely do not read it right, For at the bottom, here, I see 'Etnomous total one—point three' "Etnomous total one—point three" vapour. Were she to read this curious paper!"
