PLEASING in CONCERT

Nine. Yvette Guilbert, in a delightful
program of songs, including those of the
period from the Crusades to the seven
teenth century, entertained an apprecia-
tive audience yesterday afternoon at the
Belasco Theater. The artistic effect was
heightened by the varied and wonderful
costuming which, while historically cor

After an absence of seven years, Nine.
Guilbert returns with her absolutely
unique art matured and of highest value.
Interpretation is her forte and her ex-
pressive hands and changing countenance
make the listener forget the music of
the song and receive only the thought.
Very impressive were the Golden
Legends a gFoup of songs illustrative
Of the birth and death of Christ. The
songs of the time of Marie Antoinette
were extremely Coquettish, as was the
costume of that period. and in the clos
ing numbers, two English folk songs
and two refrains of the seventeenth
century," Nine. Guilbert exhibited her
entertaining art of impersonation at it's
best.
Emily Gresser. violinist. played several
Interesting solos by ancient composers,
while Ward Stephens. at the piano, proved
particularly sympathetic accompanist.
Nine. Guilbert will continue the program
with a second series of songs and i'm
presentations next Friday afternoon.

having as her guests Nine. Ekengren,
wife of the Minister from Sweden; Mrs.

THE SMILE In YOUR VOICE.

| that her director was in the wrong
but it was she who reminded him oi
it with bitter, reproachful words.
In his esgerness to get through
certain scenes before the close of the
day, he had sent her scurrytug to
her drcssing-room to change into the
little peasant costume she wore in
part Of the picture. When she
emerged from the dressing-room with
the peasant costume on, he looked at
her impatiently and said, 81 thought
l told you to get into your ball
gown"
The girl eyed him steadily for a
minute, then burst into a fury OF
empty, meaningless words, muttcred
that he was in the wrong, and, stamp
ing her feet, flew into her dressing
room, slamming the door as viciously
as she could. When the door closed
upon her, the director thought for a
moment, then remembered that she
had only obeyed his orders. But
there would follow no apologies on
his part to a girl who had acted as
she had, nor did she deserve any.
How much better if she had gone
quietly into her dressing-room, put
on her evening gown and, when an
opportune moment came, she could
have apologized for her delay by re-
calling to him his own orders. Then
he would have been truly sorry and
long would he have remembered her
consideration and gentleness.
1t isn't the words that frame your
sentences, but the smile in your voice
that conquers. To me the gravest
opponent in vocabulary battle is she
who has perfect self-control. I never
fear the sputterer nor she of the pois-
oned tongue; her words are cruel, but
they carry no weight.
And how ashamed we feel of our
selves when we lose our temper and
instead of provoking a similar weak
ness in others, they smile back into
our eyes and their answer is lind, al
though reproachful!
