They have just finished an extensive tour of Australia, where their enthusiastic receptions broke all records. Prior to that they toured the United States of America, the most sue-

eessful trip they have over had, and previous to their present invasion of the United States they rested for a year in Europe for the purpose of devoting the whole of their dynamic energy to study under the auspices of three of the world's greatest masters. Leo, the violinist, went
