A Correction

To the Editor of The Republican.

Esther Gustafson
 Arouses Enthusiasm
Recital of lnterpretative Dancing Civ en for Nurses Home Fund Out standing in Series of Enter
 tainments

The recital of lnterpretative Dancing given by Ester Gustafson of New York. on Saturday, was one of the most successful entertainments in the series that has been maintained in the interest of building a Nurses Home at the Day Kimbal hospital.
 \ large audience braved the threatening weather on the lawn at Carolyn Hall. and evinced increasing enthuiasm throughout the program.
 The numbers given ran the gamut of lyric feeling from the tragic and profoundly touching presentation of Poland" in Chopin's Fantasie, through the derisive impotence of reaction from oppression of "The South at Work" in the Dvorak num- Der, Co the delicate coquetry of the Scarlatti 'Pastorale". The lovely cradle song, -Four Angels Round my Bed" brought tears to the eyes, only Co be scattered by the lyric panic of the "Truant' expecting pursuit; in. terpretations of the ever delightful Brahm Waltzes.
 The grace, the power. the versatil. itv of this artist are equalled only by her boise and balance; by the un derstanding with which she grasp. the intricacies. and profundities oi the music. and the fuency with which she reveals them Co her audience.
 Katherine Seward Lown at tho piano was. a. always. the sympa. thetie and skillfull accompanyist. anc shared the appreciation of the en thusiastie audience.
 The weather was. to say the least unfriendlyl
 Last Appearance i This Is Miss Gustgfson's last ap 1 pearance here, before her season 1T New York, which opens with 8 re cital in October.
 Those who saw the dancer on Sat urday will appreciate the New YorI Evening Telegram's summing up oi her work:---
 Miss Gustafson rebuilds musi from its foundation, and seeks to re create in another form the emotion that inspired the composition in tn, mind of the musician"
