Siways aesthetic. the general aspect OF
tbe chorus would be more pleasing,
saw it the first night and perhaps
those little uncvcnucSscs and discrrpan
,.ps were noticed by the performers
themselves and made right. but If they
weren't believe me. it would add much
Il those little points were attended 10,
I'ooh Bah. too. for instance could not
look so dignifcd as his part required
with a kimono some eight inches from
tho ground.
Rnt when il came to the voices anc
the acting and accompanying an every
thing. it was simply great. And l hate
TO even remark the costuming Of the mer
in the chorus and of Pooh Bah. because
everything else was so splendid. But i
seemed that as it was a fault tina
could be remedicd. it might be helpful
rather than otherwise.
T HEAR the Carroll Hodges hav'
rented their country home. Glynwydd
in Radnor for the summer and vii
leave on the 26th Of juno for Keen
Valley in the Adrondacks. where the!
will spend the month of July and An

tie musicians you know, and they ar
going to keep up their music studic
while there. understand there is
fine teacher up there. so that will b
"Ood for them. will it not! They ar,
both members of the Junior Music Clu
which has done such fine work. reall
think that was SplcHdid idea. startin
that club. For the boys and girls hav
gotten very ambitious to excel in thci
various musical pursuits and the result
have been absolutely remarkable.
