into the ring he has turned his generosity
upside down and announces that he is pre-
pared to contribute $4,000 to the willard

Mrs. Maud Howell Smith Delights
Members Of Southern Society

With degree Of dramatic technique
that in its intensity Of expression was
startling. Mrs. Maud Howell Smith,
thrilled an audience that packed the
small ballroom of the New willard, Mon
day night. with a master Interpretation OF
the duel scene from Comedy and Trag-
edy." The occasion was the dramatic
recital given by members of the Wash
ington Readers Club for the benefit OF
the Southern Society of Washington.
In tones that leaped from the chatter
of comedy to the shrieks of tragedy, Mrs
Smith gave a portrayal of the struggle
in the dark. that held her listners tense
as in a spell
Mrs. Maud Mclean Ferguson received
an ovation as she finished a marvellous
Interpretation, in the childish pattei
that was the dream OF the author, OF

the slightest trouble Mrs. Ferguson imi-
tated the tones OF stern parent and
the childish treble of the wilful and
querelous child.
