hubbub that the tradespeople would
scarcely be able TO go about their bug
mess. One Of the great helps to Amer
leans in Berlin during the time 1 was
there, was Spanish woman who en-
tertained the musical people at large,
fashionable affairs. Here some of the
most celebrated musicians of the word
fcregathered, and as the woman of the
household was particularly partial to
Americans, she often allowed Ameri-
can girls to make their musical debut
any expense, and permitted them to
be heard by the best musicians and
the foremost critics.
Miss Mutton made her debut in Ber-
lin In one of the halls of the city. The
critic on the Musical Courier, a paper
Oh nlgh standing in musical circles the
world over, wrote a review of her con-
cert, giving her work a good measure
OF praise. And those high priced,
highly trained, blase critics are most
awfuly chary of their good words, let
me tell you.
Miss Mutton lived at the American
Woman's club a part of the time OF
hef residence abroad. The club takes
IN American women and girls who are
studying or for other reasons living in
Berlin. There were then 10000 Amer
leans in that city She speaks of the
beauty of the city, which is different
from other foreign metropolises in
that there are so few evidences of eX-
treme poverty, such as one sees, for
instance, in London. Miss Mutton has
spent some time in London, as well as
other large cities of Europe.
MISS Mutton, who is at the head of
the piano department in Bethany col
lege, gave recital Friday night at The
First Baptist church. Her program
was one of considerable length, show
ing the various kinds of work that she
is able to do, and her ability to keen
up the high standard of her perform
ance from first to last of a long eve
ming work. She played from the old
eT and the modern classics, and her
playing is accurate well sustained,
delicate and finished, and behind it is
an artistic personality.
