Nine. Lisniewska achieved an at
mosphere of informality when she took
time between the playing of her num-
bers to tell some anecdote in connection
with her famous teacher or point out
some particular characterize of the
composition she was to play. The in
innate contact established with her
audience added greatly to the enjoy
ment of her artistic interpretations.
In a program which, in the first part,
was given over to the compositions of
Schumann. Chopin and Brahms, she
displayed wide resource and charm and
an unusually fine command of nuance
and color.
There Is a velvety power in her tone,
particularly noticeable in her left-hand
technique, and a dexterity in the use
of small effects that brought delighted
applause from her listeners.
Her playing of Brahms was especially
interesting, infused as it was with a
refinement of style and warmth of
feeling that was rich with understand
ing of the man and his compositions.
OF the three Brahms numbers, the
Romance" and Rhapsody" were the
most poetical in concept and execu-
ton. In response to tumultuous ap-
plause, Nine. Lisniewska gave the
Brahms "Intermezzo," opus 119, as
encore.

CHICAGO FAIR SHOWN
BY BURTON HOLMES

MUCH has been said pro and con
AVA concerning the World Fair, held
at Chicago, but 1t remained for Burton
Holmes, with his usual originality, to
inaugurate his cuRrent season at the
National Theater yesterday afternoon
with pictorial review Of this famous
exposition.
Conducting his audience hither and
thither through the wonders Of the
fair, the peregrinator explained the
mysteries and high lights with an ease
that proved him more than conversant
with his subject. He compared the good
points and the bad ones with cinema
pictures Of the Colombian Exposition,
that Of Paris in 1900 and the San Fran
cisco Fair, laying particular stress upon
the electrical marvels of the day.
Most interesting perhaps were the
numerous pictures Of the fair by night.
The 3h miles Of ground, illuminated in
every conceivable hue, provided a gem
Of photography, especially so when the
sky was filled with the lights Of the
flares, rivaling the buildings in variety
of colors.
Beginning his travelogue, fittingly
enough, with the opening day parades
and the colorful avenue of flags, Mr..
Holmes rapidly directed his attention to
the Chicago Of today and then to the
Fort Dearborn Of the exposition, con-
trasting the magnificence Of the former
with the primitiveness Of the latter.
From brief inspection Of the worlds
largest hotel, the Art Institute and the
Buckingham Fountain, he passed again
to panorama view Of the fair grounds.
Mr.. Holmes then led the tour to the
Field Museum, the Shedd Aquarium, the
Adker Planetarium, the towers Of the
sky ride, and then over the grounds In
an airship, arriving finally at the mag
nificent gift Of Vincent Bendix, the
temple, the exact replica Of one in
China, was manned by American Chi
nese students, who performed the du-
ties of the Lamas. Gorgeously bril-
liant, 1t was one Of the striking fea-
lures Of the exposition, furnished as
it was with ornaments imported from
the China temples.
Then, with all the military display
within their power. the American Le-
gion descended upon the fair, closely
followed by President Roosevelt
So thoroughly did Mr. Holmes por-
tray this spectacular World Fair to
his audience that those who had not
seen it felt as If they had f1rst-hand
information concerning 1t without the
discomfort of being jostled by the
crowds Much is due Mr. Holmes for
the complete manner in which the fair
was shown In such a short space Of
time. F. L. c.

Already, however, certain Hollywood
wags (notably Howard Hall of Hall
Marks fame) are up in arms because
they claim Mr. Lasky Is wasting his
time over too much art and too little
general appeal" They clamor for pic
lures which will endear him to the
masses and which will make his cinema
crown pure gold. They howl for the
caperings of a Clara Bow, or the le-
thargic mooings Of super crooner, and
they wonder how he can continue to
produce films in which there is some
thing that used to be called "orlgl-
nality"
Il Am Suzanne" may not be mir
acle film, but it is genuinely satisfying
one. 1t has pleasant music, able play
ers, an attractive heroine, and theme,
which, while fanciful and slightly over
romantic, Is nevertheless not the sort OF
thing that is being done every day be-
fore the camera.
Wisely and with that touch, which in
his case, must be called soul" does
Lasky juggle humans with marionettes,
basing his plot on the slight and per-
haps trivial observation that puppets
are more real to the people that live
close to them than are certain mortalS
who live within earshot. too. He has
beauty and that eye for occasional
whimsy which no other producer has at
his fingers tips. While the fllm Is not
clothed in that dim, white background
of mists, clouds and nature which made
ZOO in Budapest" so interesting, 1t
has freshness and sprightliness, and but
for a few abrupt shifts in scenes, is all
that this wise and not too worldly
maestro could wish.
Reference is made to this film, not
only on account of its merit, but be-
cause it will be shown here shortly at
q local Loew theater.

last group offered wide variety of
subject matter and types of interpreta-
tions that revealed the Sensitiveness
and versatility of the artist to a de-
lightful degree.
No more charmingly descriptive work
has been played this year than Goosens

ference into music of the sound of
raindrops and the faint suggestion of

much did the audience enjoy it. as well
as the "Marionette Show" also by
Goosens. which followed.
II is TO be regretted that this same
delicate understanding was not present
in the rendition of Debussy's Cold
fish" Too heavy and cumbersome in
movement for the portrayal of the &C.
centric dartings of the dainty fish, the
picture could not register as clearly as
in the rendition of The Gargoyle."
Friedman's arrangement of Gaertner's
SLOW Viennese Waltz" the Godowsky
arrangement of Schubert's song, He'd

which disclosed a rare musical talent
of broad vision and human under

Admiral, the headquarters of the

artists presented were Nine. Blanca
Renard, Chilean pianist, and Nine. Re-
gina Vicarino, prima donna soprano,
who was accompanied by Margaret
Brandon.
Nine Renard's program comprised
"Minuet," by Sgambati, and a "Noc-
turne" and "Valse" by Chopin in the
first group, and three Spanish dances
by Granados, CaSella and De Falla in
the second group. Nine. Vicarino
opened the concert with Munro's MY

and "Carnaval," by Foudrain. The
