Dear Elizabeth: You asked me to
write and tell you all about the Kouns
concert after it was over. Well, we
heard the two girls sing last night
| and so did a good big proportion OF
| Topeka. When they came out, every
| one stood up just as they did wher
! Arturo Toscanini came out on the
| stage. Miss Sara Kouns was dressed
in a dress of copper colored silk witt
a paisley design and wore hose ane
| Slippers to match and her sister wore
a dress of dull blue cloth embroidered
in silver with blue hose and harmon
izing slippers. Their dresses were th'
Brettiest things, both of them beins
gowns from Worth. The blue gowr
was made with the Turkish trouser eff
feet, and both of the dresses Were
draped at the left side. OF course, thu
audience did as they most always do
clap right in the middle of a selection
land at the time they started to clal
Miss Nellie Kouns was coming from
one of the wings of the stage carryin;
the echo of the song her sister wa
singing. 1t was certainly marvelou
| that the clapping did not interfere will
her tones. but it didn't, and they wer
| IN perfect harmony with her sisters
The poor accompanist rarely ever ha'
an opportunity of having his last not
of the accompaniment heard, so cage
. were the people to clap. Talking
about the accompanies, he certainl,
did pedal that piano, kept time witt
| his feet. His music must have hat
| pedal marks for every note instead o
every measure or SO.
| The girls received some lovely flow
ers after their second group of song
and later in the program more wer
sent up over the footlights.
