AJraalaroai Ufa. A Russian violinist, more con cerned about the gift of God than the gift of music, will give a violin recital in the school auditorium Fri day night, December 9, at 7:30 p M., in an effort to educate himself in a Christian country for mission ary service in his far-off homeland. The violinist, who, according to The Atlanta Constitution, "ploys the violin like a Kreisler", will render a varied program consisting of religi ous selections, classcal numbers Amercan and Russian national and popular music, and a reading in the Russian tongue. The program will be interspersed with a piano solo by Miss Anderaon, of Murphy, and a reading by Mrs. J. W. S. Davis. Ad mission will be 15 and 2E> cents. Half Ar.uoJ Glok* During the Worid War this Russian belonged to the white army and af ter its defeat by the reds fled to northern China. While a fugulive there he found it impossible to con tinue his instruction upon the piano and began work upon the violin un der the tutelage of a noted Russian violinist, himself also a fugitive Irom the reds. While in China he was converted to Christianity at a Metho dist mission, which he persuaded to furnish him transportation to Ameri ca in order that he migh prepare him self here to spread in Russia a re ligion of love and understanding. From China he made his way to Japan, thence to Honolulu, across to San Francisco, and finally landed in the Georgia mountains, where he is a student at Young Harris college. Merita Support The fact that the Russian referred to is Mr. V. G. Osepoff, well known to many Andrews people, should not lessen our interest in his adventurous life nor weaken our impulse to Chris tian helpfulness nor our otherwise great desire to demonstrate by our patron&ge our enthusiasm in thus helping a foreigner who has traveled half way around the globe to cast his lot among us for a time and car ry back to his native land the brand of Christian zeal he finds here. A fugitive from the land of his birth, without citizenship in the United States, and refrain ng from subscribing to Russian papers for fear of being misunderstood by the American government, Mr. Osepoff says he sometimes feels himself "a man without a country." He finds much consolation* however, in his American friendships and in the violin hif loves and plays so well, and we wish for him a large audience Friday night. ? Andrews Outlook.
