When IL came time for the first crowd

Johnny Seal saw them in their lovely

mama and demanded a fur coat Just IKE

There will be no new coat until you
learn to swim said Mama Seal That
is one thing every good little seal must
learn to do perfectly When you learn
70 do that. come to me and then you
may have new fur coat
Johnny Seal pouted and whined. out
at last he started OF toward the water
As queer as il may seem, though seals
have TO spend their lives IN the water
they all have to learn how to swim As
Johnny Seal closed his eyes and slid
over the side Of the cake of ice on
which he sat
At first he hardly knew whether to
laugh or cry The water almost took
his breath away. but gathering up cour-

coat he had been promised-Johnny
Seal not only learned how to swim but
he taught his brothers and sisters Then
when Johnny Seal put on his lovely new

Now, these little grayish-brown fur

Russians Give National
Flavor to ''SnegOurOtchka''

Rimsky- -Korsakoff's "Snegourotchka"
was given by the Russian Grand Opera
Company last evening at the New Am
sterdam Theater. A French critic, M.
Camille Bellaigne, has said that in the
music of this opera Rimsy- -Korsakoff
expresses the very face of Russia itself.
Although "The Snow Maiden" was not
unfamiliar, having been one of this
seasons novelties at the Metropolitan
Opera House, special interest was at
tached to this performance by Russian
singers. Of necessity the spectacular
elements of the opera were on much
smaller scale than in the previous pro-
duction. But what the Russian version
lost in display it gained in atmosphere
There was decided national flavor in the
manner in which the two forest scenes
were enacted. Miss Kasanskaya was
an attractive and ingratiating snaw
maiden, and two capable comedians,
Nine. Toseeva and Nicholas Kasloff,

Some Beautiful Music
The scene Of Tamara and the maiden

ling beauty; the tenor song of Prince
Sinoda in the second is charming: the
chorus of the Princes followers bur-
dens the night air with the magnificent
canticles of the Russian Church serv-

observe the note of sincerity and v.ri-

making by Miss Koshct, dancing her
self instead of leaving that duty to
one of thu ballet Finally there is
genuine pathos and passion in the con-
Guiding duet with which Miss koshetz

indeed. but not Russian lyric drama
like that of Moussorgsky and his other

Good and Evil is discussed by the or

an open scene between the Demon, who
is revolutionary cast out OF heaven,
and the Angel of Light. Between them
the issue is Joined and the struggle is
for human soul. But it is not wicked
ness which actuates the Demon but love
of the human sort. The demon becomes
before our eyes a lovesick devil. We
have seen ephistopheles promote the

a seducer, only by proxy. We have
seen the singular devil OF Massenct's

for the first time, so far as occurs to
us just now, with the spectacle of

kiss, apparently of requtal. and loses
his bride by death in the moment of
his success. Good triumphs over Evil.
