Mrs. Collingwood Tucker of Keokuk.

called Cheerful Songs for Children"
and which proved wonderfully pleas
ing to both tie little folks and their
elders.
The gymnasium was practically fill

siders, many recalling former de-
lightful recital which Mrs. Tucker
/ gave at the school a year ago.
Mrs. Tucker is especially gifted in
entertaining. She has very sweet,
flexible voice, under perfect control,
delicious sense of humor and Every
thing she does possesses the charm
of spontaneity, and artistic concep-
ton. She at once wins her audience.
She takes her listeners into her con-
fidence, and leads them at will to
laughter or almost to tears, as the
case may be.
The first numbers of the prog gram
of the afternoon were especially for
the little tots who found 'sThc Bad
Little Kitten" I've got pain in my
saw-dust," the appendicitis tragedy OF
the dolly, especially to their liking.
In THE Little Alabama Coon" as
also in the closing number, THE Sa.
lutte to the Flag" the chorus Of the
school assisted most effectively.
The songs were all full of the
laughter or the pathos Of childhoc1
and especially so Happy Lii Sal,

made wonderfully funny, and which
seemed to strike responsive note

, audience. and "Spooks,'' with its

This is Mrs fuckers second pro
gram at st. Katharine's and it i
hoped she may make her visits t.
