repaid for enduring the wet grass by
the many we'll given numbers. The
soloists were Anne Yago McGuffey,
contralto; Justin Lawrie, tenor. and
Edwin Steffe, baritone, who. on less
than "a hours notice. took the place
Of Robert Frederick Freund, baritone.
The soloists were assisted by the
United States Marine Band, Capt.
Taylor Branson, leader, who, in addi-
ton to the several operate selections,
played the Accomplishments for the
singers.
THE outstanding number on the
- program was the duet for baritone
and tenor from Verdis La Fora del
Destino," made famous by the late
Enrico Caruso and Antonio Scott.
Mr.. Lawrie and Mr.. Steffe were the
singers last evening and their voices
blended quite as well as those of the
more renowned pair. Their interpre-
tation followed tradition, and their
singing was marked by finished phras-
ing, and variety and color. They were
enthusiastically applauded and after
several recalls repeated a portion OF
the duet. Mr.. Lawrie singing even
better the second time.
Mr.. Steffe sang for his solo the
aria vision Fugitiv," from Masse-
nets "Herodiade," with excellent
style, phrasing and color, the warmth
and rich quality of his voice showing
to advantage.
Mr.. Lawrie sang two solos,
"Una Furtiya Lagrima," from Doni-
zettis "L'Elisir d'Amore," and the
famous "Vesti lie Giubba," from Leon
cavallo's II Pagliacci." His work In
these solos did not compare favorably
with that in his duet with Mr.. Steffe.
In the aria from "Pagliacci" he
showed none of the style and finish
which he gave in his duet from La
Fora del Destino" 1t was notice
ably lacking also in his duet with
Mrs. McGuffey, though this evident
unfamiliarity with the music, which
necessitated the use of the score,
might have been the cause.
Mrs. McGuffey, who is the pos
SCISSOR Of a beautiful voice of wide
range and rich timgre, was not at
her best last evening, and her singing
gave evidence of a lack of sympathy
between herself and the band which
accompanied her. Her tones were clear
and free, but her singing was with
out color and legato, though she is
endowed with ample temperament.
She chose for her solos the aria "Ah!
Mon Fills" from Meyerbeer's lie
Prophet" and the Habanera from
Bizet's Carmen" both well suited to
her voice.

eral, Mr.. Cummings, by LOO
employees of the Department
of Justice, as a demonstra-

and they gave voice to these
sentiments in no uncertain
terms.
Mrs. Cummings came in
for her share of compli-
ments and good wishes, too,

has a place all her own in
the hearts Of the members Of
that large family" one
reason being she knows the
department so thoroughly.
The gifts to the honor
guest included a handsome
ivory and gold-topped cane
bearing his monogram, pre-
sented by the Customs Com
mission in New York, which
is under the Department Of
Justice, and which received
from Mr.. Cummings its first
visit by an Attorney General.
All of the Department Of
Justice employees united in
giving him two magnificent
silver flower bowls, suitably
inscribed. This group gave
Mrs. Cummings q corsage
bouquet of white orchids
and lilies Of the valley; and
the Federal Bureau of In
vestigation's tribute to her
was a huge Colonial bou-
quet of pink, white and blue
flowers in a lace holder,
with a cascade of satin
streamers falling from it.
Mrs. Cummings wore a
very becoming gown Of
amber-colored crepe, with
the square decolletage out
lined with a closely pleated
ruffle Of terra Gotta crepe,
and her long sash Of the
