of America the music of America. Only
native American artists appearIon the

the past three years the Festival has
been held in Buffalo, after it had out

on the program this year are: Anna
Case, soprano; Elsie Devoc. pianist;
Paul Althouse, tenor and Sybil Conner,

Lucille Wiseman, with her sister,
Mildred Wiseman, lyric soprano, have
been on the stage for the past year.
Their act is of Spanish character, rs
they wear gorgeous Spanish mantillas,
shawls, high combs and rich yelvets.
Their musical numbers are also Span
ish and they always find favor with
their audiences. Last year they tour
ed the Western coast on the Orpheum
