    JUST GOSSIP ABOUT PEOPLE
Plans for Concert and Lecture Are Discussed by
Nancy Wynne Southern Industrial Associa
tion to Hold Bazaar in Bellevue
ADECIDEpLY pleasant evening may bo anticipated by those of us who nro going
to the concert and Wnllaco Nutting's lecture which will boglven.ln the ball
room of the Bollevue-Stratford on Thursday evening, November 8, for the benefit
cf the Soldiers Leisure Hour Fund. The music will be given by members of the
Orpheus Mixed Quartet and thcro will bo stcreoptlcon views of old Colonial homes
with the lecture. Tho .uartct Includes Edna Harwood Baugher. Ellzaboth Dickson,
noyal MacLeltan and Donald Redding. These four young pcoplo lend their talent
to a number of charitable things each year, and are certainly to bo congratulated
en the fact.
Tho Soldiers' Leisure
Hour Fund is a great
thing, f one may
Judge from a letter re
ceived by tho commit
tee from Captain C. P.
Futchcr, and I am go
ing to quote from It to
for you.
"I do not know what
e should have done
had the Soldiers' Leis
ure Hour Fund not pro
vided us with means to
meet the needs of tho
soldiers' leisure time.
"We are having our
movies twice a week.
Last night there were
over a thousand men
presont. Tonight the
machine gun company
will pull off a vaude
ville, and we expect
jur open-air theatre
to be packed to Its ca
pacity. Tho men are
working hard and
everybody Is striving
for the highest ef
ficiency. "Too much cannot
be said as to tho value
of these provisions of
the soldiers! o 1 s u r e
hour movement. While
in the First Regiment
wefhave always had on
exceedingly high intel
lectual atmosphere and
morale, this highly
thoughtful and scien
tific provision for meet
ing the demands of
the soldiers' leisure
time will contribute
largely to a still
greater cfllclency. Wo
cannot adequately ex
press the appreciation
of the officers and men
of tho First Regiment
to the soldiers' lelsuro
hour fund committee
(or its interest and co
operation." Through Captain
Futcher and Mrs. M.
L. Woodruff, two of the
committee for the
fund, the Colonial
evening will bo given
with Boldlers for ushers
and Boy Scouts for tho
programs.
Mr. Nutting will lecture on "Colonial
Homes and Furnishings" and tho quartet
will have appropriate stage setting and
appear in costume, singing the songs of
the time of tho lecture.
This fund is being raised exclusively
for Philadelphia boys and In no wuy con
filets with nny other, as the gifts aro
made direct to the soldiers. Each regi
ment receives Its supplies through the
chaplain.
Among the patronesses are Mrs. Samuel
Austin, Mrs. Thomas G. Ashton, Mrs.
Walter D. Blabon, Mrs. Atlee W. Bur

FOR years Friday has been n day set
apart by music lo-ers for tho Phila
delphia Orchestra concerts. This year
the concerts will continue, and although
the season tickets are all sold there will
bo a good many people who can no longer
afford the luxury of an afternoon of har
mony on such various accounts as war
taxes and the H. C. of L. So those peo
ple, as well as a whole lot of others who
never thought of going to an orchestra
concert, will be glad to hear about the
concert that will be given by members
of tho Orchestra at the Stetson Audito
rium, Fifth street and Montgomery ave
nue, next Wednesday night for the bene
fit of the Stetson Hospital. Tho audito
rium Is a perfectly huge place, with a
seating capacity of 6000, so everybody
who decides to go will And a seat, and
the acoustic properties are excellent, ac
cording to such an able Judge 'as Leopold
Stokowskl himself. Tho program offers
such pleasures as the "Peer Gynt" suite
and an aria from "Rlgoletto," sung by
Miss Rachel Hamilton, who I am told hau
a charming voice and personality. And
the "price you pay" for all this Is, oh
Joyous thought, only fifty cents for re
served seats. Mrs. Charles B. Warder, of
Germantown, Whoso husband, Doctor
Warder, was connected with the Stetson
Hospital for sixteen years before his
death, Is working awfully hard to make
tho affair as successful this year as It
has been In former years, and as far as
I am concerned I Intend to take advan
tage of the opportunity that Is offered
next week. NANCV WYNNE.

AN IDEAL CONCERT
Schubert's Unfinished Symphony
Is Admirably Played and Mme.
Matzenauer Sings
So long as Leopold Stokowskl pays the
sort of tribute to supreme art bostowed
in yesterday afternoon's concert of the
Philadelphia Orchestra In the Academy of
Music, all fears that tiro presence of distin
guished soloists may unbalance tho appeal
of symphony programs may bo comfortably
dismissed.
Margarcto Matzenauer, ono of tho world's
compartlvely few great contraltos, was the
soloist. Her luscious lyricism is precisely
of tho typo that has beforo now upset the
symmetry of musical rosters Occasions
upon which Mme. Schumann-Helnk con
erted symphony concerts Into song recitals
aro sorrowfully recalled. But Mme. Mat
zenauer's contributions yesterday dovetailed
perfectly Into tho artistic homogeneity of
tho program.
For this propriety her choice of song
numbers was partly responsible, but even
more potent was tho splendor of romance
and tho pulse-stirring poetic imagination
which Mr. Stokowskl Infused Into his read
ing of Schubert's "Unfinished Symphony."
Tho orchestra was in virtuoso form, and
played with absoluto assurance and author
ity. Mr. Stokowskl's eager search for nw
eltlcs bespeaks initiative and catholicity of
taste, but thero aro times when tho majesty
of acknowledged masterpieces, eloquently
rendered, Is more satisfying than tho most
brilliant and highly-seasoned contemporary
score. Such an occasion was yesterday
afternoon, when tho profound beauties of
Schubert's Incompleted work refused to per
mit Mme. Matzenauer to dominate the prc
gram. Sho shared in Its honors as a stellar
guest should do. Tho presence of soloists
at symphony concerts Is only Justified when
the element of proportion Is thus fittingly
preserved.
Tho rich-voiced contralto's offerings
wero all well-tested concert favorites. Ex
pert command of coloratura technique was
revealed In her treatment of tho broad
tlowlng melody In tho "Parto" aria from
Mozart's "Titus." Exquisite delicacy and
a subtle regard for poetic values charac
terized her singing of tho three Wagner
licder, "In tho Greenhouse," "Drenms" and
"Trouble" (Schmcrzen), which contain much
embryonic thematic material afterward
used in "Tristan" and aro all associated
with tho Mme. Wcsendonck chapters In the
temperamental Richard's sentimental
career.
The program opened with tho "Star
Spangled Banner," followed by Cherubim's;
"Abencerrngcs" overture, a conventional
old work, but faintly picturing the grim
Moorish tragedy once enacted In the ill
fated Boabdll's exotic Alhambra In vivid
contrast was the concluding number, a
suite from Strawlnsky's ultra-modern scoro
written for the pantomlmo ballet, "The Fire
Bird." Detached from the scenic action
the full effect of this interesting muslo Is
occasionally lost. The orchestra, however,
Illuminated Its eerlo discords and rippling
passages of elfin delicacy with the masterly
facility typical of the entire concert. Hold
ers of nonseason tickets were compelled to
pay the 10 per cent amusement duties
beforo entering tho Academy, but this
ruling was not applied to regular subscrib
ers. It was stated that tho orchestra Is
considering a plan to collect the taxes from
Its subscribers In lump payments for tho
entire Beason. This method will obviate
annoying delays at the concert doors.
