tainment at the Y. NJ G. A. The
New Tribune contained the following
comment on Miss Castello's entertain
ment at the Waldorf:
Miss Bernice CASTILLO, = fair young
reader from the West, charms an audi
ence at the Waldorf. Miss Castillo
made her first appearance before q
New York audience at the Waldorf
yesterday afternoon. She presented
picture Of sirlish loneliness as she
stepped upon the platform, being petite
and very fair, and a simplicity of man
ners which Charmed her hearers. IN Sc
lecting her programme Miss CASTILLO
has avoided the Tuts through which so
many hackneyed things have run, and
three of her selections were original.
The first number, Robin North was
written expressly for her by her mother
and was we'll adapted for the display
Of emotional dramatic talent Her YER
satility was apparent in her recitation
of The TTnwelcCme Guest and a quaint
old rhyme, The kissing Shadows,
which were well received"
