Spencer returned to her native
country, America, and made a
tour of the United States, ap-
pearlng on concerts and recitals,

wide hearing. 1t is said of Miss
Spencer that she is probably bet

Of strictly legitimate character,
her versatility especially appeal
ing to many, she possesses a
voice of remarkable range. She
sings soprano roles, mezzo sopra-
no roles, and contralto roles with
equal facility, the remarkable
thing being that her voice is
properly placed in each of these
registers. Miss Spencer has
many engagements in Iowa, and
her audience no doubt will be a
large one.
Miss Spencer will appear in
