eliminate waste. hence our time, our
energies and our money shouid DC

tributed largely to restricted buying
his does not mean, however. that
the public should again plunge into
an era of reckless spending In order
to eliminate the waste OF idle labor
and idle plant equipments.
Both over-spending and UNDER
spending are abnormal, and involve
waste. while thrift. through the elm

In New York this season last evening
In Aeolian Hall for the benefit OF the

especially in the amazing left hand oc
taves. But this might have been merely
because she was in bad humor. How
ever that Is no ones business. The
fact remains that 1t was an extraordi-
nary performance, II somewhat erratic
in spots, quite untaned and certainly
not domestic.
The artist was disclosed more en-
trancingly in the Cesar Franck music,
which she played with admirable beauty
OF tone. clarity Of utterance and breadth
of style. She published whole Venetian
nights of revelry and riot (Jacques Cor
naro. not Howells) In the barcarolle OF
Chopin. 1t was old Venice, cinque cento,
not the modern motor boat landing
place. The performance aroused the
audience to prolonged demonstrations.
Nine. Novaes firmly holds her position
among the foremost pianists OF this time.
She has brilliant technic. immense
power, which, however. never degener-
atcs into noise, and a remarkable COM
mand OF tone color She paints all her
pictures in rich tints, but does not often
forget her outlines. She sometimes has
her own notions about the latter, but
her idosyncrasies are those of a genu-
inely artistic nature, not the mere wan
derings of an uncertain mind. She Is
still very young and the world may ex"
pect greater things in the future. She
gives no indications of pause In her
progress.
