Opera
The American Singers Have
Try at Fra Diavolo" at
Park Theatre

The traditions of French opera CO.
mique may have died out in New York.
There has been little during the last
generation on which they might feed.
The effort which the American singers
made to perform Auber's Fra Dia-
valo," masterpiece in its genre, fur
nished ample evidence that not "a glim-
mer of It's spirit, nor suspicion of
the musical style proper to it, lives in
the minds of the company which has
kept the Park Theatre open since last
fall.
The English version used was pos
slbly the first and only one with which
the English stage is familiar In the
long ago when opera in English WAS
accepted as matter Of course it made
its annual journeys across the con-
tlnent from ocean to ocean.
Traces of the time-worn comedy Gle
ment seem to have survived in the
played the part Of Lord Allcash, and
William Danforth, the farcical bandit
Bippo. All the others felt their way
ever unknown dramatic ground, play
ing at something which they had prob
ably been told was the romantic old
drama and floundering about in the ex-
Quisite old music in manner that was
lamentable.
There is nothing the matter with the
translation of the lyrics, which are
sirgable for those who know how to
sing such music and a~e able to sing
it. But Orvile Harold. who essayed
the part of the hero, and Blanca Saroya,
who tried to play Zerina, were not
among such favored artists. To them
the opera was a strange world, the
world in which crude dilettanti have
their being. Miss Blanche Duffied S
stage routine helped her through the
part though it could not help her do
justice to the music
There is no reason why the opera
should be considered out-moded, even
with its ridiculous dialogue; but it
seems far outside the ken of the COM
pany now calling itself the Society Of
American Singers H. E. X.

singing to. the soldiers in France, gave
a recital: Miss Farrar has a pleasing
personality and a pleasing voice; in
TACT she is a singer admirably suited
for the art of the salon. Her voice
possesses flexibility, though no great
color or warmth, and it is of uniform
tlmbre throughout its scale.
Miss Farrar was best last night in
such things as the "Laughing Song"
from Auber's 'Manon Lescaut," and in
Richard Hageman's "Do Not Go. My
Love- and AT the Well" the latter

On the Screen

Wishing to give one of our soldier
ooys who has just returned a treat
we invited Him to go to the Rivoli to
see William Faversham in "The Silver
King"

crazy about the movies, you know, but
: LII 90 anywhere once" or, in other
words; I've nothing else TO do. so
III go rather than hurt your feelings. -
And then you should have seen him,
tie watched the picture for mo-
ment and then moved over on to the
edge of his chair and began to NUT

Isn't that shame for him to 20
in debt that way!" was his first com.
ment, ard every one around MIN
smiled.
Then, "Oh, look! He's going to give
hlm wrong steer on the race so Den
yer will be ruined and he can get his
wife away from hm!"
And later, ooh! Isn't that awful
He's going with his pistol and they're
going to make it look as though Den
yer had shot him!"
And all the people in the box got
excited, too, and were afraid that he
had guessed right. And then he said
"Wcll, | suppose III have to wait and
tut the suspense is terrible, isn't it %
And this was the man who had stuck
up his nose 1T the movies
When. finally, the villain got his
handouts adjusted AMI the hero was
vindicatcd. this soldier, who didn't
like pictures, laughted out loud and
applauded so that every one enjoyed it
twice as much as they would have done
otherwise

you don't like motion pictures now it
Is pity, but your turn will come

French Women to
Take Up Y. w.
Work in France
French Government Asks
Americans to Start Glasses
at Industrial Centres:
100000 E m p y d

That the women of France want to
take over gradually the management of
activities started in their country by
Y. w. c. A. workers from the United
States, is the opinion Of Mrs Herbert
Lee Pratt, chairman Of the finance
committee CT the War Work Council,
who has just returned from an inspec-
ton of the work done by the Y W. c.
A. among industrial workers in France
and England.
French women have not been ac-
customed to organization as American
women have, and they are impressed
with the results big association can
accomplish" said Mrs. Pratt. "At the
request of the French government the
Y. w. c. A, with personnel Of eighty
five, established foyers' at the various
munition centres where one million
girls and women found rest and recre-
alton. With the closing down of muni-
tion plants, 100000 women and girls
have been thrown out of employment
OF these the government can care for
100000 in silk mills and other indus
tries which have opened up. 1t is for
the 100000 who remain without Jobs
that the foyers need to remain in
operation. We hope that the city foy-
ers established for industrial workers
VIII be continued by the French women.
They have also expressed a wish that
the Y. W. c. A. should establish student
toyers at the colleges.
cone important field of work of the
Y. w. c. A. has been with the Amer-
can and English stationed close to the
front lines. At Bourges we had
recreation centre for 45O Waacs, who
were working for the United States
army. Clubs and recreation rooms were
provided also for United States Signal
Corps girls and army nurses close to
their posts. About 1900 graduate
nurses made use of these rooms while
on leave.
Peace mission girls, those telephone
and telegraph operators who are so
essential to the business Of determine
ing peace, now occupy the attention of
the Y. w. C. A."
Mrs. Pratt was in Paris on the day
the armistice was signed AT 10 o'clock
the streets were quiet, though with an
air of expectation. At II lie Matin"
hang out a great sign: L'arnisticc
est SiQne. In a moment Paris became
one big flag. | saw a French woman
dash up and kiss q dignifed British
major on both cheeks. Insult was
added to injury when she called over
her shoulder You're an American aren't
you ."
