| exceptionally well and has tremen- dous possibilities. I had never even heard of her before. Louis D'Angelo also sang. I was very much disap- pointed in him that night, but when heard him the next evening as the king in Lohengrin, was delightfully."- surprised and could hardly reconcile the two performances at all. Also heard Claire Dux as Elsa and Orville Harold as Lohengrin.
 Attends chndren's Concert
 Then on Thursday afternoon, we went to the childrens concert" said Miss Mallam. "On that afternoon children under 12 years of age are admitted free to Ravinia. Mrs. Max Operndorfer explained the orchestra numbers to the children so they could listen more intelligently and when she asked them what their slo- gan was, the answer came back, Listen or Leave,' and you never saw such attention as the little ones gave to the program After the orchestra program, Miss Rubovits. the. young Chicago singer, who won the scholarship prize at the Chicago Musical college, sang group of songs suitable for children and then 1 some fancy dancing was done by some little tots. Twas really a most enjoyable program and wonderfully instructive for the children. It seem ed to be fully appreciated, for the place was packed throughout the performance
 One evening"" said Miss Mallam. visited some friends on the South Slde and went to the beautiful "Ti- yoli theatre" where an orchestra or forty pieces plays during the picture ana they also give a beautiful pro- grom before the picture is shown. A most beautiful organ Is one of the features also. believe the Tivoii is the show theatre of Chicago and 1t Is certainly a very magnificent structure. although the Chicago the atre comes mighty close second. They are however quite different in style, although both of them are magnificent and both have this love- ly music.
 "Of course I wanted to see the theatres, but really went in order to hear the music. I had lunch in town with Cooper several times, dinner | with MT. Gould in his dear little home In Oak Park, and Cooper came cut several times to Glencoe to stay overnight. He is singing beautifully and has several lovely southern en- agreements this winter, Atlanta be- IlnB one or them.
 T heard so many lovely things of Evelyn Going and Mae Bell, who were In Alaska on a concert tour. done so we'll at the Chicago Musical college.
 'The last evening I was there I went to hear Boris Godounoff with Adams Didur in the title roll. He is Perfectly Wonderful". Besides having a glorious voice. he Is a wonderful actor.
 q came near not telling of one of the pleasantest evenings l spent. Boris Godounoff brought 1t back to me for we went to hear 1t particu- larly in order to hear Monsieur Leon Rothier as the monk. I had met him at tea one Sunday evening. He and his wife had a cottage in Glen COG for the summer and lived right next to some friends of ours. They were asked to tea to meet me and really are two of the most charming l people I have ever met. He Is a cultured, French gentleman and she very vivacious. charming, French woman. We did not even discuss anything musical that evening, ex- cept the marriage of Gam Walska and MacCormick. Madame Rothier Etold of some of her experiences In France during the war which were | quite thrilling Monsieur Rothiers ! voice Is lovely, 50 smooth and rich and his singing so intelligent. It is really a reflection of the man | himself.
 You see," said Miss Mallam, "al- though I went away for vacation, I did not have much of a rest from music. But when 1t is one's life one 1 can't get away from 1t.
 There is one thing more l want to tell and then I must ceare my chatter I have at last persuaded Miss Breed to come down next year 1 and give some lessons in my studio, | and all of my pupils and I will have that to look forward to and 1t will l inspire us to renewed energy in our work this season.
