ANNUAL CARMINT PROGRAM
Well-Known Tenor Gives Splendid
Program Effectively

The annual recital of William II. Car
mint, given last evening at the New Cen
tury Drawing Rooms before considerable
and appreciative audience, was by all
tokens of program, artistic rendition and
genuine merit one of the most attractive
of the musical season. Coming so late,
It gave music lovers a chance to hear the
best at time when good music is on the
wane.
Mr.. Carnint is we'll known as church
soloist and his duties at several of the
leading churches have been such as to
preclude extensive public appearances, but
he has the voice and the presence to
warrant frequent concert programs
His latest program was marked by
choice taste in selection and was arranged
advantageously to display and bring forth
the finest values of the composers repre-
sented. 1t enlisted some of the familiar
material for tenors, yet so we'll was the
selection made that there could be no
Just charge of a catering to the con-
ventional Standard works have a due
place on every program, but this does
not mean that their presence makes a
program hackneyed. Mr.. Carmint proved
this. o
Mr.. Carmint Is a tenor of splendid nat
ural vocal endowment and the gifts of
nature he has developed by assiduous
training so that his voice represents the
best assets of vocal culture. 1t is a voice
both of volume and range, and 1t is es-
sentially sweet in addition to its robust
ness. His powers of Interpretation are
very satisfying and he manages to enter,
with real insight into the moods of the
composers whom he is singing

the German raids on east and south coast
towns foreshadows changes In the disposi-

Mr.. Balfour says that the net results
Of such hasty attacks on unfortiled towns
are ''singuiariy futile" and adds;
ut is not an experiment they would be
well advised TO repeat. In the earlier
stages OF the war considerations Of strat.
egy required us to keep our battle heet

any prolonged operation, such as thcse IN
voived in an attempt at INVASION but not
against brief dashes made under cover
Of night.
But with the progress of the war our
maritime position has improved. The SUD
marine portion of the grand fleet is now
available in growing numbers for coast
defense, and-which is even more impor-
tant-the Increase in the strength OF the
grand feet itself will enable us to bring

ETHEL SYKES IN FLoRID SONG
Young Coloratura Soprano Gives
Recital

Coloratura singing is an art that is no
longer to any great extent consciously
cultivated yet without the expert in florid
singing, some of the most beautiful music,
as pure music, ever written would be lost
to performance To be sure, a great deal
of trivial song would waste itself on the
desert air of oblivion, but there are many
airs and arias the colorated decorations
of which are underlaid with the sheerest
and most appealing melody and invested
with authentic feeling.
SO it is agreeable that once in while
young singer devotes herself consciously
and conscientiously to coloratura and be-
comes adroit, through tedious experience,
with trill and grace note, skip and ca
denza. Such singer is Ethel Sykes, who
gave an artistic recital last evening at
Griffith Hall. Miss Sykes voice Is of pure
and sweet natural quality, with an even
scale.

stories, and the Evening Ledger
has secured the serial rights. The story
commences in Saturdays Evening
Ledger. The tens Of thousands If
readers who have followed the ''Tarzan"
serials within the past twelve months
need no assurance as to the power of
these Burroughs tales. Their wealth
of incidents, abundance of vivid scenes,
and the speed at which the stOry's
action moves, have interested and en-
crossed more readers than any serial

It is sufficient to say of "The Son of

to father whose every act held the

New Fine Arts-Triangle Film
of Russia and America Comes
to the Arcadia
BY the Photonlnr Editor

There is always distinctive finish
| about n product of the Fine Arts studios
No matter what the story, good or bad. OF
| who the players. there is always a Quiet
| direct artistry about the film that stamps
| Il rlfith-supervised. II may lack Woe
fully the fine interior lighting of the
| I.aslky forces, but IL has always atmos-
| phere, good camera work and exceptional
| exteriors.
The new release starring Lillian Gish,
| sold for Marriage" is n case in point as
| patrons of the Arcadia the rest of the
| week will discover Its story Is by no
means novel or powerful-simply tale OF
| the attempts of some Russian Immigrants
to marry off their niece and ward 10 tne
highest bidder. The relations of all the
| characters are developed slowly, but con-
slstently. The various incidents are none
of them hair-ralsing, but they follow with
straightforward logic
AS for settings and acting, both are
| close to the perfection of Mr.. Gritiiths 8
| studios. Lillian Gish Frank Bennett
| Walter Long and A. ID. Sears carry the
| principal parts excellently. The scenes in
Los Angeles' Little Russia are as sug-
gestive of our hybrid ghettos as the Wild
er and more obviously effective glimpses
| of Russia during Pogrom.
Kitty Gordon's third film for the World
Corporation will be Her Crucial Test.
Billie Reeves, the comedian, having fin
ished his contract with Lubin, Will go into
the producing end of the moving-picture
business He will leave for Atlantic City
early next week and will start the camera
on an original three-reel comedy, with all
the scenes laid in that resort Mr. Reeves
will play the principal part in this picture
and will be surrounded by cast of COM
petent artistes. The scenario was written
by well-known author and this picture
will be followed by a number of one-reel
comedies, all in a new vein of humor, and
all giving Mr.. Reeves an unusual oppor-
tunity to show his talent.
Right on the heels of the important
merger announcement comes one from the
Fine Arts studio, saying they will be.
gin Immediately upon the work of pro-
duclng two.reel pictures with such stars
as Douglas Fairbanks, De Wolf Hopper,
Lillian Gish and all the rest playing the
leading parts. The significance Of this, 1t
is said, is nothing more than a desire to
provide for the insistent demand for short
er pictures by the exhibitors To many 1t
seems TO Indicate as was stated in these
columns some time ago. that this is the
first step in the building up of program
upon the type of the Mutual and General
Film. These new two.reel pictures will
be released on the Triangle program
under the Fine Arts trademark. The
first one stars Douglas Fairbanks and is
being directed by John Emerson.

REV. CHAs. BRAGG, PASTOR
Mothers day was fittingly observed
at our church last Sunday morning.
Each mother was presented with a
white carnation. Music suited to the
day was rendered. The solo by our
pastor, "l'm Going Back to Mother"
was sung in his usual good style and
touched the hearts of all, after which
he delivered splendid sermon, paying
high tribute to the mothers who have
taken their part so we'll in rearing their
children to be christian men and wOm-
en-, exhorting them TO more earnest ef.
fort in the future.
The subject for evening service was
reversed and an unusually good sermon
was given for the benefit of men and
boys.

the church this week to quilt. A pot

MORE MEN THAN WOMEN
HAVE APPENDICITIS

Surgeons state men are slightly more
subject to appendicitis than women.
Yale people should know that a few
doses of simple buckthorn bark, gly-
cerine, as mixed in Adler-ika, often
relieve or prevent appendicitis. This
mixture removes such surprising foul
matter that ONE SPOONFUL relieves
almost ANY CASE constipation, sour
stomach or gas. The INSTANT, easy
action of Adler-i-ka is surprising.
