MISS EATON IN
fine CONCERT
Contralto Charms Hearers
at Recital of Knights
Templar
RECEPTION, SUPPER
GIVEN IN HER HONOR

81 must not disappoint the mem
bers of the Drill Battalion OF
ST. Johns Commandery, Knights
Templar, OF Wilmington or their
friends In my first initial
public appearance in that
city" This one thought has been
foremost in the mind OF Miss Bea-
trice Kendall Eaton, who last night
delighted large audience OF Will
mingtOn music lovers in the gold
ballroom at the Hotel dupont at a
testimonial song recital sponsored
by the Drill Battalion. Few who
have heard Miss Eaton realized that
she has been IN at her home in Phil
adelphla since last Saturday with an
acute attack of appendicitis and un-
I'll yesterday morning had been ly-
ing in an ice pack to ward off an
operation. 1t was with determlna-
tion TO please her friends in this
city that she appeared last night.
Miss Eaton's recital proved rev
elation TO those who heard her An
outstanding success was scored and
her truly colorful and vibrant CON
ira to voice was heard admirably in
every number OF her program.
Probably the feature number OF
the program was the singing OF "Nio
10 sapete" (Aria from Cavaliera
Rusticana) by Mascagnl. This
selection gave the audience an op-
portunty to judge Miss Eaton's CON
tralto In an operate test. In the
singing OF Mon coeur s'ouvre a IA
vOix" (Aria from Samson ct
Dellia'O by Saint Saens she offered
another proof OF the scope OF her
voice in taking both the high and
low tones with the sweetness and
trueness that charmed the entire
audience. But no selection on her
program received such applause as
her final encore of the evening,
Just Song at Twilight"
Possibly no singer who has ap-
peared In Wilmington received more
enthusiastic applause that was given
Miss Eaton last night. She was
generous with hcr encores and her
delightful personality. magnetic
stage presence and her beautiful
voice held her audience throughout
her entire ! rogram.
Ellis Clark llammann. composer
pianist. besides playing the accom-
panimen;s for all the numbers play
ed two groups of selections between
Miss Eaton's numbers, displaying
splendid technique and expression
for which he is so widely known TO
piano students OF Wilmington. Miss
Eaton was presented with several
bouquets OF crysanthemums and
roses by admiring friends In Ma
sonic circles Of Wilmington.
Following the concert formal re-
