only she can sing it, and the sigh
over the audience and the applause
when her accompanist began to
play the music, was evidence that
her listeners were waiting expect
antly for her to sing it. Following
the concert, her dressing room was
thronged for more than an hour
with patrons seeking to shake her
hand and get her autograph. Many
of them had her former accom-
panist's book about the singer with
them to be autographed. This is
the sixth concert that I have wit
messed by Miss Anderson and each
year it seems to be the best. Critics
say a "voice like hers is heard
once in a hundred years."
