a very sweet touch and wnC is plan
list of unsual ability, gave Wach's
Fascination Waltz, which was one
of the prcttiest numbers on the pro-
gram.
Mrs. Nieuwenkamp Is always a
charming hostess, and Oh this Occa.
sion made the evening one OF unusual
pleasure to her guests who were
happy to partake Of her hospitality
and who were also charmed to meet

Miss Dollie Mcdonnell,
of the Chautauqua.

Fortunate is the audience which
has the pleasure of enjoying the
charming readings, representations,
and pianologues of Miss Dollie Nc
Donnell. She has pleasing stage
presence and is very artistic in her
work; her selections are not prosy.
but interesting and delightful. The
general consensus of opinion OF pat
rons of Chautaquas where she has
appeared is that she gives most ex-
cellent satisfaction. She not only
possesses ability of high order, but
her pleasing stage presence, unas-
suming manner. and the entire alb
sence in her mental makeup OF that
affectation which renders nugatory
the ability of so many readers makes
Miss McDonnell's work successful in
high degree.
