The parlor OF the Brooks House was
filled last evening. and the heat and dis
comfort were forgotten for the time, as the
succeeding numbers Of the very enjoyable
| program held the attention OF the audi
enee. Miss Louise Rawson, who gave the
larger part Of the program, was at her best,
and again proved herself the delightful,
versatile artist, her selections ranging from
the pathetic simplicity Of Eugene Field 5
Little Boy Blue" through various humor-
GUS and dialect numbers to the tragedy of
"Tullia." Especially beautiful was the
selection which was accompanied by violin
and piano in familiar tenor air from al
| Trovatore," and in this and one other
number it was made evident that the cult
/ yation of The singing as well as the speak
/ ing voice is Of great advantage TO the pub
lie reader. Miss Marian Minor sang
twice, the tripping Scotch bit, "The Feath-
er in her Bonnet" meeting with especial
favor, Miss Ethel Bruce contributed two
delicious piano solos, and Miss Izetta
! Stewart as accompanist and Miss Abbie
Lundburg as violinist gave valuable aid in
their important though less conspicuous
parts. The kindergarten fund of the Wo-
mans club is the richer by about $40 as
the result Of the entertainment.
