Music
Miss Rebecca Clark Demon
strates Beauty of the Viola,
instrument Rarely
Heard Alone

rarely heard. except in company with
some SIXTY or eighty other orchestra
instruments, the viola was the chief
centre Of interest at the recital given
yesterday afternoon by Rebecca Clarke,
violist, and May Mukle, 'cellist. at
Aeoliar Hall. The beauty of the in
strumcnt, which possesses sometime
OF the fiexibility of the violin with the
intensity of the cello. was admirably
exploited by Miss Clarke, and set the
audience wondering whether more
could not be heard from this instru-
ment, even if its limited rcpertory Of
music must be extended with works
adapted from music written for other
instruments.
MISS Clarke masters the deep cello
tones, as well as the song-like upper
register of her instrument, and with
more f1exibility of bow phrasing will
become an exccutant of real authority.
MISS Nuke. who has been heard here
previously with her cello, is an artist
OF marked scholarship and discrimina-
ton.
Ire programme contained several in
1erestlng pieces by the younger com
losers of England, among them An
.nony !renty, Eugene Gooseens and.
MISS Clarke herself, whose Lullaby"
and "Grotesque" pleased an appre
ciatire audience.

ALBANY, Feb. 13.-Governor Whit

BECAUSE of its defects, which were
characterized as aids to profteers by
some OF its opponents, the Goyerno,
was urged to veto the measure bv some
OF ms advisers. Assured, however, that
the Legislature would correct these d..
1ects, the Governor made it law.
The moment the bill was signed cy-
Governor Benz jamin b. Odell Of New
burgh, automatically became State Ice
Controller, as the measure named him
specifically. He is empowered to con-
tract with private ice dealers along the
Hudson and its tributaries to harvest
an additional 100000 tons of ice in
order to prevent any shortage this
the practical closing down Of artificial
ice plants.
The bill also provides that no art-
fetal ice shall be manufactured on
Long Island, in New York City, West
chester, or any of the Hudson River
counties, except by permission Of the
Ice Controller.
Ammonia. used in the manufacture
of ice, is needed for explosives.
In line with their bid for the farm
and labor vote, the Democrats. through
Senator Wagner, introduced three bills
to-day.
Assemblyman William c. Amos, of
New York, prestented bill broaden
ing the divorce law. At present, only
one ground is recognized in this state.
Amos would permit divorces for ex-
treme cruelty and inhuman treatment,
habitual ungovernable temper, habitual
ntemperance, desertion. conviction of
9 felony. where marriage has been
within the fourth degree of kindred,
and where one of the parties has OBJ.
tanned divorce in another state.
The Governor returned to ALBANY

pointment to the upstate Public Ser

On the Screen

Carlyle Blackwell read over the

realizing that even the most ardent
movie fan never could be induced to
aecept it seriously, he plays it in a
rollicking comic opera vein that is
most refreshing.
