HOLIDAY THRONGS AT PLAYS.
Broadway Theatres Crowded, Es-
pecially at Night.

The world series seemed to affect the
patronage at the holiday matinees yes
terday. This, coupled with the fact that
the public this season has not turned
out in record making numbers to attend
the plays. made attendance at the vari-
Gus houses smaller in comparison to
other Columbus Days. particularly the
anniversary which followed the war.
But still there was a goodly influx of
theatregoers. especially when balanced
against the usual attendance. Plays
which have been playing to small au-
diencss had their houses well filled yes
terday. Successes and such standard
entertainments as that at the Hippo
drome were crowded to the doors. And
in the evening, when the crowds that
had been watching the Yankees and the
Giants were released from their i'm
portant mission in life, they filled the
legitimate theatres. the variety halls
and the cinema PALACES along Broad
way to overflowing. thereby making up
for the decrease indhe afternoon.

Danise, Opera
Barytone, Gives
Recital of Songs
Miss Nina Wulfe, Violinist,
Assists sin Enjoyable
Entertainment.

Giuseppe Danise, barytone OF the
Metropolitan, gave what he called a
song recital last evening in Town Hall.
Since he had the assistance of Miss
Nina v-rlfe. violinist. who contributed
very nearly half the programme. old
fashioned music lovers would have called
the entertainment a concert. But the
term recital. has acquired great elas-
ticity in these times of linguistic econ
onny.
Mr.. Danise is an opera singer. and IS
such has won deserved popularity. 1t Is
quentiy found to be out Of their clement
on the concert stage. and in certain
sense this proved to be the case with
the distinguished barytone. His pro-
gramme contained little or nothing CALI
ing for those subtleties of Interpretation
associated with song evenings, but pos
sibly this was because the singer be-
lieved in directness and simplicity.
His songs we're certainly OF the simple
and direct kind and he sang them gen.
orally in Straightforward and unaf-
fected style, albeit invariably with the
true operatic high tone at or close to
the end. Some of the aspiring young
barytones who wish they were tenors
might have got hint from the quality
of these game high tones. closely ap-
preaching the tenor type. They serve
Mr.. Danise well and arouse his hearers
to enthusiasm, but they have not yet
tempted the judicious possessor to de-
sert Tonic for C0Mio or the Count A
Lana for Manrico.
Mr.. Danise began his concert with
"Eri Tu," from the "Ballo in Maschera,"
an air which he sang less simply and
unaffectedly than his songs. In this
curious wise did the flavor of the lyric
theatre haunt the song recital OF this
eminent practitioner Of operatic art.
Miss Wuife, the violinist, was content
with nothing less than Wienawskis
Souvenir de Moscou' for her opening
number and it can be said for her that
her harmonics were very good. She was
heard later in group of short pieces.
The audience was large and very demon
strative. The singer. as old chronicles
used to put It. was made the recipient
of some beautiful floral offerings"

IN HE President and Mrs. Hard
ing will leave Washington
tomorrow for a brief holiday
and will be guests OF Senator and
Mrs. Philander c. Knox, at Valley
Forge Farm, over the weekend.
Starting from the White House at
$3.50 o'clock President and Mrs.
Harding will motor to Valley Forge
with Senator and Mrs. Knox, Brig.
Gen. C. Il. Sawyer and George B.
Christian accompanying them.
When they reach the banks of the
Susquehanna River, the party will
stop for a basket luncheon and
they expect to reach Valley Forge
some time this afternoon. They
win return to Washington on Mon
day.
The President and Mrs. Harding
will be the central figures in the
most picturesque and most re-
markable event of Music Week.
This afternoon a great chorus of
1000 school children is assembl-
ing on the Ellipse to sing to them
and surely no Chief Executive ever
had a more enthusiastic or moro
beautiful tribute.
The perfect day brought out an
immense crowd of early spectators
while the gaily dressed children
gathering on the green lawn were
moving bits of color that later
would be fixed in effective groups.
This event has aroused the widest
interest and will be remembered
as one of the most picturesque fea-
lures of the whole program OF the
week. Nothing more typically
American could have been devised
than this splendid chorus in which
the rising generation is greeting
the President in songs breathing
patriotism and loyalty to national
ideals.
After attending the mammoth sing
on the Elipse this afternoon, Mrs
Coolidge will occupy a box at thu
Belasco Theater for the violin and piano
recital to be given by Constance
and Charles Seeger. Judge and Mrs.

Mrs. DENLY.
