12. A STORY ABOUT PADEREVSKY
Paderevski once visited a small town in America. While out
walking one afternoon he heard a piano, and following the sound
of it came to a house on which there was a sign reading, «Miss
Smith. Piano lessons 25 cents an hour». Pausing to listen he heard
the young woman trying to play one of Chopin's nocturnes and not
succeeding very well. Paderevski walked up to the house and
knocked. Miss Smith came to the door and recognised him at once.
She invited him in and he sat down and played the nocturne as
only he could, afterwards spending an hour in correcting her
mistakes. Miss Smith thanked him and he went away. Some
months later he returned to the town, and again to the same street.
He soon came to the home of Miss Smith, and looking at the sign
he read, «Miss Smith (pupil of Paderevski). Piano lessons 1 dollar
an hour».
