of the great dramatic heroines of

former in the concert group saves his
performance for the hall in which
he is to appear, Mr.. Dyer Bennett
comes equipped with his guitar and,
instead of being interviewed in
dull, routine fashion, gives an i'm
promptu concert. It impresses Mr..
Dyer Bennett upon the mind much
more emphatically than anything he
could possibly say in interview.
Mr.. Dyer Bennett, an impromptu
young man, requires but few min
uteS to demonstrate that folk music
through the ages is not merely good
music but that its lyricists have been
men of infinite variety and feeling.
He goes much less far in proving
that point in his concerts. but before

possible that he might leave even
