Miss Lucy M Barnes; tenor, A. S. Bar
roll; bass, William e Harper OF New
York; pianist. Miss Millie Becher. The
program was the most varied. and
therefore, the most interesting ever pre-
seDted by the Tuesday Club The marked
comparison between the soft, drowsv air
OF stars of the Summer Night" and the
roilicking. jolly Hunting Song. was the
most effective of the chorus work.

with apparent ease.
The singing Of Mrs Smalley, ALWAYS
feature of Tuesday Club concerts. was
never more delightful than it was last
evening. She Is improving constantly.
Beside her excellent work in the longer

Not the least enjoyable part Of the
entertainment was the piano PLAYING of
Miss Millie Becher. She was cordially
greeted. Her first selection a "Ballade .
by Chopin, was in a bright vein, but the
Invitation Waltz, by Won Weber
Tausig, was still brighter and for It she
was recalled In response to the encore
she played Home, Sweet Home" with
such sympathy and fealing that the tears
were not far from the surface.
The program was closed with the
chorus Spring" selected from HAYDEN s
