Music
Wynne Pyle Provides Inter
esting Programme at
Aeolian Hall

Wynne Pyle, in her interesting pro
gramme at Aeolan Hall last evening
showed a sympathetic feeling for tonal
ard dynamic values and much grace in
the tender moods of her music. The
more ponderous pieces, however.
seemed beyond her strength, and her
playing was at times marred by verV
had pedalling. Twelve preludes by
Ccriabine, written in his "early man
ner." offered q bit Of novelty. The
most of them are feeble, even childish,
limitations Of Chopin, and suggest why
Orensky refused Scriabine admittance
10 his class in composition, saving,
"The man has no talent Only two
o. the preludes, those in F minor and
L fat minor Of Opus IL, have distinc-
ion. The latter is a really impressive
work If lc@cnd-llke quality.
At the Hotel Aston, in the afternoon,
Joseph Bonnet gave the second in his
series of organ recita.s, with a pro-
gramme wholly selected from Bach.
Even in this austere master he finds
opportunity for unusual and pictur-
esque registrations, which yet never
overstep the bounds Of discretion. IL
is perhaps this resourcefulness that
enables him TO make a New York audi
ence enjoy a whole afternoon of Bach
on the organ.
Another afternoon concert was given
by Nine. Yolanda Nero at Aeolian. Nine.
Meros playing was slightly uneven,
especially in the "Davidsbundlertanze"
e Schumann. where at times her play
ing was brilliant and informed with an
glow, and at others little
heavy. In Debussys "Jardin sans la
pluie" and "Clair de Lune" her delicacy
of touch and sentiment were delightful,
and she gave the group of List with
abundant dash.

Plan to Complete
Ship in Two Weeks

That this yard, with only ten ways, is
planned TO complete a ship every two
weeks, once production begins, is
marvellous illustration Of how the
admiration of American methods has
speeded up shiphuilding. Such a thlng
as a single YARD turning out lO,oOO-
ton steel shin every two weeks IS some
thing never heard Of before.
It is likely that before the hrst unit
Of zen ways S fully at work, work Will
begin on another unit of ten ways. The
first ten ships will be built ahead Of
time, and the yard will be ready to
start work on another ten long before
1918 is over The ships are to be OF
l1Il-knot speed. and will be driven by
General Electric geared turbine en-
zines, deriving their steam from
Scotch boilers.
War or no war, government orders
or none, the Federal Shipbuilding Com
pany has several years work ahead Of
il in orders for the Steel Corporation
alone, which has already determined
TO build fifty ships.
Thus do we see the tangible evil
dences Of the rise of another great
American industry, affording wonder
full opportunities for the young men OF
this generation. Their'~fathers con-
auered land transportation. They will
conquer marine transportation.

Elsie Janis at Palace
Ina Claire and Bessie Mccoy
Added to Her List

Elsie Janis is entertaining again this
week at the Palace. She has added two
new personalities to her list. Bessie
Mccoy and Ina Claire. She does Miss
Mccoy in her old, popular Yama Yama
song and she does it in costume. too,
a thing which is rare with Miss Janis.
She needs no makeup does that young
lady to make the illusion complete, for
she has an uncanny way Of looking ex-
sctly like the person whom she is i'm
personating.
For q moment yesterday as she did
Jeanne dare her resemblance to the
divine Sarah was startling, and a mo-
ment later she looked exactly like
Eddie Foy, and then she was so much
like George Cohan that every one
began TO applaud before she had said
a word.
She draped herself in portiere, put
the lamp shade on for a headdress and
did little song in her best Ina Clare
manner. And she saved Bessie McCoy
till the last. and when the applause
became too thunderous she pointed out
Mrs. Davis, who occupied the stage box,
and said. There she is, applaud her"
So they did.
Viasta Maslova, the beautiful Rus
sian prima ballerina, did some most
enticing dances IN some fascinating
costumes amid some wonderful stage
settings. Whether she moved or Just
posed she was a picture. With her
we're Angelo Romeo and Kshesinsky.
They offered a pas de Trois. varla-
ton classique, native dance Of the
Russian Cossacks, fantasia Assyri-
enne. an adagio romantique, and a
mazourka. with music BY Chopin.
Artie Mehlinger and George W. Meyer
offered their old songs and some new
ones to the tune of dozen cncores.
John HyRms and Leila Mcintyre
offered a little sketch called May
bloom which gave Miss Mcintyre a
chance to do all of those things which
she does so prettily. =,
Other features were All. W. LoyaPs
Canine Toque; Murphy, Van and Ken
yon, the singing trio; Mrs. and Nr.
Jimmy Barry, in "The Burg ar; Mar
garet Young, singer of character songs
and Felix Adler. who knows how TO DO
foolish things without being foolish.

Opera
Geraldine Farrar Sings "Tos-
ca" With Fervor at the
Metropolitan

II might be difficult 20 discover any
thing new to say of Puccini's "Tosea,'
but happily this is not the case Of
Nine. Geraldine Fsrrar Nine. Farrsr.
like the nymph on the Grecian urn,
is forever fleeing and forever new.
Invention IS of her nature. She Is
never of the same mind two per-
formances in succession.
She is a true believer in the power
of the Irishmsn's flea. You put your
finger on her ard she is not there; or
rather she is there, and very much
there-several PAGES from where you
expected TO find her. Nine. Farrar is
the very Goddess OF Uncertainty
which is why we love her even while
we rail at her. For in art the first
commandment and the greatest IS:
"Thou Shalt Not Be Dull" Nine. Far
rar has been many things and often,
but dull she never is and could not be.
Nine. Farrar sang Tosca last night
n, the Metr )politan, sang It IN cos
tune which Nine Tallien herself might
have envied Her head was crowned
with n scarlet plume which made her
appear like a beautiful hamlngo. No
man would dare 70 describe her gown.
Nine. Farrars ideas OF floria Ioses
are forever changing.
Last night tkey were more LATIN
than has been her wont. and there was
not little of the tiger in her. She
was in better voice than in her oper-
ing Marguerite and she gave the "Nissl
d'Arte" effectively.
OF course Sgnor Scott was the
Scarpia. Who but Signor Scott could
be the Scarpia while Signor Scotti
remains with us? His performance
was as massive, as animal. as distin-
gushed as IL ever has been. Signor
Scott almost makes US forget the
vuigarity Of the work itself. Signor
Martinelli was the Cavaradossi, replac-
ing Mr.. Martin. who was i'll. Signor
Martinelli was in excellent voice. and
his brilliant upper tones were much IN
evidence.
Signo, Moranzoni led the orchestra
through the undistinguished, brutal
score winning as much glory as melo-
drama in music deserves 10 WIN. The
two first acts have received new sets;
the Church Of st. Andrea della vale
was a distinct improvement Of the one
OF bvgone years.

All Big Wigs Outdone

A new feature was added to "Chu
Chin Chow" last night This was a
Circassian girl, in the slave market
scene. wearing a wig four feet in diam
eter. The wig contains enough hair for
two ordinary musical comedy com
nanies and as so heavy that a girl dis
tingnished by strength as well as by
heantv Miss Patricia Frewen, was Sc
iected 10 wear it. Whether the wig is
tb. biggest ever made, it is, at least, so
iaros That the London wigmakers could
not finish il in time for the opening
of the play. 1t reached the Manhattan
Opera House only last week.

Standardization
Would Delight Ford

While this is a real shipyard and not
a mere assembly plant, yet the faDrl-
cation idea is adopted to large eN-
tent and the Standardization would de-
light the SOU OF Henry Ford, espe-
cially now that Mr.. Ford has been
commandeered by the Shipping Board.
At first this yard will build nothing
but standardized 9,60O-,on s"lps i0r

though it is capable Of building beats

Forests of Posts
Grow in Few Hours

You take a stroll through the yards
and come back to find a forest of steel
posts appraised in your absence along
the wall lines Of the great fabrication
shop, 900 feet long and 175 feet wide,
where such shaping Of plates and
frames as is not done at the structural
steel works will be done
Here men are eXcayating, hip deep,
in mud and muck; there men are max
ing fills. Here they are pumping the
ocean in, only TO let it run out and
leave its silt and ooze behind. There
they hold it back with Golfer dams
while men toll around the roots of q
forest of piles TO make room for the
decks Of the ways.
The donkey engines puff and snort
as they jerk the pile-driver hammers
up the second they strike the spin
tering tops Of the great sticks. White
men and black men, horses and motor
trucks, all tense in the struggle with
gravity, all working with a will to
fill and gorge the great nav OF war,
all concentrated on vision OF a pro.
cession of great ships to be born OF
their travail.
