MISS MARGARET SUMMER TO
SING "HANSEL AND GRETEL. -
Personnel of Talent for Benefit al
Carvel Hall Next Monday Night
Feb Is.

Miss Margaret Sumner, who is TO
sing "Hansel and Gretel' in Annap-
oils. on the evening of February 28th,
is originally from Boston. Her grand
father was Thomas Ryan, of the old
Mendelssohn Quartette, and her faith
er, George w. Sumner, a famous
pianist and organist
Miss Sumner obtained her musical
education in France and Germany, the
director of the Royal Opera House 10
Dresden coaching her himself for the
part of Gretel This was Miss Sum-
ner's best beloved role, SO she con
ceived the idea of making Humper
dinck's beautiful opera a solo enter
tainment in which she would imperso-
nate all the characters in costume.
To quote from one Of the n. Y. pa
pers: THAT Miss Summer should be
able to impersonate successfully the
father, mother, sandman, dew-msiden,
and the famous witch as we'll as the
brother and sister, speaks volumes for
her dramatic powers; that she is able
to render the wonderful music of the
different roles is sufficient tribute to
her musical abilities for 1t is MOI
the voice one hears throughout. but
each distinct voice with all its true
characteristics and ali with perfect
intonation. Her sweet voice gives evil
dence of unseen power. and her acting
is natural and unaffected. She is the
childish dreamer Crete, and no less
faithfully the wicked witch F"
The tickets for this unique per.
Torrance are 81 90 and can be pro-
cured from the patronesses. or from
members of the National Cathedral
Committee. As the number of seats
is imiteo it is suggested that those
wishing to hear Miss Summer purchase
their tickets early from teldmeyer' s
Drug Store, Carvel Hall or the patron
esses. See advertisement
