- THIS WEEK’S COVER
- While the young virtuoso executes her recital, we’ll whisper the news that the older gentleman on the couch is George Falter, father of Artist John Falter. Although a proprietor of two clothing stores, he does not knowingly sit with his coat and open like that, publicizing his vital label. His son, striving earnestly for realism, painstakingly painted the label so that it was clearly readable. But alas! the label had to be painstakingly rendered unreadable, so the theory that art should go on after pages. Regarding those people in the picture who seem to think that the musical child should be seen and not heard, wouldn’t it be interesting if someday they had to pay three dollars a head to hear her in Carnegie Hall?
