SHOWS RICH VOCAL
GIFTS IN RECITAL
Miss Craft PIeases in Last Ten
Star Concert at National
Theater.

Marcclla Craft. opera soprano,
closed an unusually Interesting list
OF concerts of the Ten Star Series
that T. Arthur Smith presented to
the Washington public at popular
price, when. she was heard in recital
yesterday afternoon at the National
Theater. An artist known chiefly for
her exquisite detail in opera for her
vocal culture and her gift as actress.
Miss Craft was found in recital to
be mistress of the art of song in the
real command OF her voice and in it's
musical floating tone production. She
Is a singer to emulate.
Her program, in three groups, held
classic and modern Italian. a great
vaciety of songs in English, and from
France classic in the delicately
dramatized LA Fiancee d'Alydos"
and a song of the people in the ami
mated "Chanson Provencal." Miss
Craft has a voice that possesses
sweetness, beauty, finish in its de-
livery of phrase. whether in softness
or in climax building. Her interpre-
tation is vivid and varied. 1t shows
the amount of brain stuff that recital
work may contain, and a certain na-
tive acquaintance with music types
that rebukes many singers.

They were distinctly contrasted, while
the rendition of the aria "Un bel d."

a richly prepared tone-palette for all

Mss Craft sings with delightful
legato and forceful dramatic insight.
Though more a song for a male voice,
THE Eagle" by her accompanist,
Emil Polak, proved a stirring song
that scars up to the rugged heights
OF this bird of the crags and noun

Hints For The

After starching table linen, etc,
fold each article very carefully and
mangle before drying. When nearly
dry, iron with very hot iron. and
the things will be found to be al

almost any article which must be
starched, and they will last as long

KATHLEEN. BY Christopher Morley.
Garden City. N. Y: Doubleday, Page
4 Co.
This latest production of Mr..
Morley Is in q vein of delicious
humor that assays more fun to the
page then any book we know Of.
II is difficult to decide whether tho
author deserves the more praise for
the conception of his delicious plot
or for the enhancing absurdity
with which he develops 1t. The idea
Of a group of Oxford undergradu-
ates (including one American,
Rhodes scholar) falling in love
with a girl none of them has seen,
ard starting out to make her ac-
quaintance. contains vast possibili-
ties. Such a playing ut cross pur-
poses, such strategems for obtain
ing entree to her house, such COM
edy situations as result from one
young man obtaining q position as
cook in Kathleen's home, make the
reader impatient for the climax, yet
leave him with regret that the end
comes SO soon, 1t is a phantasy of
fun, rich with undergraduate slang.
which leaves one with a glow of
satisfaction that at the end the
American student seems in fair way
to be the successful suitor.
OUTLINES OF HIGH SCHOOL CHEMIS-
TRY FOR REVIEWS. BY Max Kessel.
B. s. New York: Nathaniel NJ. Fine
An Illuminating and condensed
manual for study or laboratory use,
In chemistry, which should be of
inestimable value in preparation
for college entrance examinations
or to be paralleled with a general
course in chemistry, is the ninety
four page outline by Max Kessel.
In this day of short cut methods
the "Outlines of High School Chem
istry" should prove of unusual
worth. Along with the valuable
formulae and a number of helpful
problems. the author has given
hints in presenting type examina-
tions CLEANED from various exami-
nation boards. Judicious use OF the
right kind of type sets forth most
clearly the essentials to be gained
from the deductions of the various
experiments.
