14Mr. Kreisler won a veritable ovation after each of his numbers due to his wonderful playing in both instances.

He is an artist to his finger tips.

49Mme. de Treville is an artist of wonderful versatility. Each group showed her voice to excellent advantage, and it was difficult to tell just what period suited her best, so superbly were the songs of each century given. She is every inch the artist and her winsome personality and gracious manner pleased an audience of connoisseurs. Edith Bowyer Whiffen, in costumes of the periods, was at the piano, and gave the artist excellent support. This concert was a most auspicious beginning for a series of four under the direction of Rachel Busey-Kinsolving.

Nixon, press representatives of the Chicago Grand Opera Company, gave interesting talks concerning music and musicians. Helen B. Lawrence and Sibyl Sammis MacDermid were the two soloists of the afternoon. Mrs. MacDermid gave a group of songs in her usual charming manner and won the success of the afternoon. Artistic accompaniments were furnished by Edith Bowyer Whiffen, who is to spend the season in this country.

The feature of the program will be the College Woman's Chorus of 100 voices, under the direction of O. Gordon Erickson.
