Eleanor Reynolds Shows
Voice of Power and Range

Eleanor Reynolds. contralto, made
her first appearance here in a recital
yesterday afternoon in Aeolian Hall.
Though an AMERICAN and a native of
Virginia, she is little known in this
country, her artistic craecr having had
it's beginnings in Europe, where she
has established a reputation as a
singer Of Wagnerian roles.
She has n voice of considerable
power and range and a style in whiSh
there Is touch Of the grand manner.
IT Is not voice Of great freedom or
hexibility, but she uses it with skilful
nuance and fine effectiveness in songs
Of o dramatic character. Some of her
singing in her Italian and French
groups, notably In "Sc tn m ami 80
sospire" Of Pergolese and "Plaisir
damour" of Martini. had much charm,
as also did Down in the Forest" Of
Landon Konald. Her best work was
perhaps In the German songs, "Die

Mary Garden Triumphs
AS a Singer-D Director
Makes First Appearance Here
i'm Dual Role in 'Monna Wanna
and Is. at Her Best


Miss Mary Garden made her frst ap-
pearance this season in her dual role
of singer and director in the Chicago
Opera Company's performance Of
"Monna Wanna" last evening at the
Manhattan Opera House. The role
shows Miss Garden at her best. A
radiant apparition from first to last in
the enchanting costumes of medieval
Italy, gorgeous in coloring, her his
trionic ability has full play. In the
grace of her gestures, the significance
Of her facial play, the eloquence Of her
repose, she triumpheds throughout the
evening. vocally the part is chiefly m
affair of defamation, and Miss Garden
made the most Of her genius in the art
of coloring tone.
But the responsibility Of the per
formance did not rest entirely upon tho
was the occasion Of the reappearan:e
here of the well graced tenor, Lueien
Muratore, after a long absence. In
every respect his impersonation was a
worthy companion portrait forMiss Gar
den's Wanna. He was in good voice. He
did all that could be done for Fevrier' .
hating and tepid score, and much os
the singing in the opera fell to his lot.
Mr.. Baklanoff, who, like his compan-
ions, again appeared in familiar role
as Guido, gave an interesting and we'll
defined portrayal of the dohbting hus-
band. Mr.. Cotreuips diction in the
part Of Marco Colonna inspired admi-
ration, and histrionically he, too. was
sympathetic and in the picture.
$ Henri NORM, the organizations new
French conductor, left a pleasing i'm
preston, and conducted with taste and
authority. Altogether, it was an excel
lent performance. Miss Garden was
warmly greeted upon her entrance, anA
later, with her associates, repeatedly
called before the curtain.

CANNOT DO 1T ALL.

The confidence of the people Of America has bean
won by the present Republican administration by its
honest and sincere efforts to restore normal cpndi-
lions through return to the only policies upon which
permanent prosperity can be based-individual en-
terprise, energy and thrift. There has been commend
able abandonment of the recently prevalent theory
that the only way was the best way, or the best way.
them There has been abandonment of the idea TINT
the government can by fiat or magic produce pros
perity and provide lucrative employment for the
people.
There are still some who believe that the best way
to run a large business enterprise is to take the man
agement out of the hands of men who built 1t up and
made 1t a success There are still some who believe
that II a man has made a success of handling large
sums Of money in large enterprises, thus giving en-
ployment to large numbers Of men, the best way to
keep things going is to tax the successful man SO heay-
lily that he will either have no surplus with which to
expand his undertakings or will be SO thoroughly dis
couraged that he will retire from business and invest
his savings in non-taxable securities, leaving the man
agement OF business to men who have not demon
strated ability to conduct affairs effectively. There
are still some who believe In more government inter
ference with business and less business practice in gov
eminent.
But the number Of those who support such policies
has become relatively small. The country as a whole
rejoices to see ut Washington an administration that
sets an example in efficiency and economy. The great
majority Of the people are gratifed to observe the es-
Enlistment Of policies which encourage enterprise
and thrift and discourage Stacking and waste. They
are particularly pleased that there is no longer an adj
hersnce to the theory that every emergency should
be met by an appropriation from the Federal treas.
ury and every temporary Ill should be remedied by
the enactment Of . law establishing some new Blu.
reau to supervise the activities Of the people.
