The vioiin is famous for its Silken, lustrous tone, its full range and' almost unbelievable depth, Made in 1731 by the master of all violin makers, this partic- ular 'Strad' eventually found it's way into the hands of the Romanoffs, one 'time rulers of Russia, and still bears the bejeweled crest of that family, During the revolution it wes smuggled out of Russia and eventually was purchased by Mr, Rubinoff, Sensitive to heat, humidity, altitude and the risks that beset any treasure of Such vast value, the Stradivarius is guarded and handled with deference and extreme care at all times, The ancient instrument still retains the original -varnish and is the acme of perfection in musical instruments, an interesting fact is that during certain passages of "Warsaw Concerto" Rubinoff exerts as much as 60 pounds of pressure on the violin. It takes tremendous strength of highly developed muscular action to draw certain tones from one of the world's most delicate instruments, Ruvinoff will appear at the High School Auditorium, Friday, May 23, Tickets are available from any Kiwanis member, 'room at the Recreation Centre, FIRST AID TRAINING "PAYS OFF" ee a een = Seas ONE DTI On a recent trip to the Lakehead Willard Vezina arrived at the scene of an accident which occured on the Trans-Canada highway west of Nipigon, in which one person was killed and two seriously injured. .
