that 1t is a question how to describe
In q few words the wonder and In
terest of the picture.
First of all, for the first time the
United States Navy co-operated with
Q linn corporation, an entire fleet
of warshlps and other units having
taken part in the filming Of the Sc
rial. Think of it-American dread
thoughts, cruisers, submarines, sub
chasers, destroyers, seaplanes and
'blimps," and other components of
q modern fleet engaged exclusively
for months in producing a great mo-
ton picture.
The navy, In thus assisting Fox
Film Corporation, was prompted by a
desire to bring home to the American
people a complete picture Of the
great work done by the American
sailor. It is not war picture. but
discloses the heroic qualities of the
navy in time Of peace.
Besides this outstanding quality,
s'Bride 10" is presented with SUI
perfine all-star cast. The staging is
nothing short Of gorgeous, ranging
from the home of a millionaire in
fashionable Newport to the Northern
Coast Of Africa, over sea and over

''White House, Pleases
At Metropolitan Concert

The solo performers at the Metro
politan Opera House concert last night
were Miss Jeanne Gordon and the con-
traltos of the company; Mr.. Mardones;
Toscha Seidel, violinist; Miss Scotney,
soprano. More interesting than their
numbers, however, was the orchestra's
performance Of piece called white
House." composed by Nicola Laucilla,
member of the band. The piece has
no reference to present, part or pos
sible future conditions at Washington.
It's local significance belongs to Nor
folk, Conn, and the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Carl Stoeckel, patrons of the
Litchfeld Company festival, for which
1t was composed two or three years
ago. That significance and the use of
the. chimes of the Congregational
Church in the old town being unknown
to last nights audience. the music was
heard on its own value, and made a
pleasant impression, even on an audi
ence which, like all Sunday night au-
diences. was disposed to worship at
the feet of the solo performers. Miss
Gordon san go don fatale," from
Verdi's "Don Carlos" and accompanied
herself afterward in an English ballad.
Mr. Seidel played Wieniawski's D
minor concerto. saint-ssns's "Rondo
Capriccioso" and a couple Of extra
pieces, and Mr.. Mardones sang 20 tn

Symphony Offers Novelty

Two members of the orchestra were
soloists at yesterday afternoons con-
cert by the Symphony Society at
Aeolian Hall Mr.. Matthew played Ro-
partz's Pastorale ct Danses for oboe
orchestra, and Mr.. Letellier played q
concerto for bassoon, with orchestra
by Mozart. Both accomplished players
were heard at their best
There was one novelty on the pro-
gram, "Claire de Lune" Serenade, by
Vincenzo Tommasini, a modern Italian
composer and writer on musical sub
jects. His work has nothing in COM
mon with the character ristics of Italian
operate music as exemplifed by the
works Of Verdi and Puccini, but is one
of many efforts among the composers
countrymen of the present day to
achieve distinction in symphonic music.
The piece belongs clearly to the modern
impressionistic school. 1t has certain
affiliations with the Debussyian idiom,
yet Mr.. Tommasni has given the music
an unusual twist which stamps it in
no small degree with originality.
The symphony was Dvorak's "New
World" and the concluding number

Tschaikowsky Program
Fills Carnegie Hall

An all-Tschaikowsky program, in
Guiding the violin concerto, played by
Max Rosen, drew another capacity audi
ence to the Sunday concert of the Phil
harm onic Society at Carnegie Hall yes
terday afternoon.
This is q forbidding work for any
but the exalted few whose mastery of
the resources of the violin is fully
matured. It's beautiful thematic mate
rial is so screened with a bristling
hedge of difficulties that it can be fully
presented only by u player to whom
technical difficulty is a thing forgotten
Mr.. Rosen has not yet attained this
point, but his performance was a cred
liable one none the less. He has
studied we'll, and his tone, not large
but warm and resonant, showed to good
advantage in lyric passages.
The symphony was the fifth in E
minor, not the most profound Of the
composers achievements, but a work
replete with melody Ind varied orches-
trail color.
Mr.. Stransky conducted with clarity,
but with a certain tameness in the cli-
MAKES that should have been most stir
ring. The Festival Overture 1872"
completed the program.

and he came back to the stage to sing
"Eri Tu," from The Masked Ball"

carefully.
