J l.am-lng. 1'iofessor (Maike Is a man '
of exceptionally distinguished peisonul
appeaiaiieo with a leonine head and a
sensitive, mobile face. Ills voice Is o
rich and melodious that It is often a ,
reminder of Victor Ilei belt's vlolln
cello under his tender touch. His splen
did elocutionary ability and versatil
ity of taste and Interpretation wore a
levelatlon. The programme was en
tirely outside the beaten track and was I
fascinatingly interesting fiom begin- J
ning to close. The early portion was
devoted to Kipling and contained i
poems alone, "Tho Seven Seas" furn
ishing the chief selection. Ho pre- I
faced his readings by a noble tribute j
to the central llgure of the literal y '
moi Id at present. "While Kipling is
not so ovei learned," ho said, "so over
erudite or obscure, he needs a .speaker,
lie has to a supiemo degree the lyrical !
spliit, singing out of his heart with
that heartful lightness and the ihythm
which Is tiue rhythm and not Jigger
nor sing song."
Professor Clarke opened the pro- I
gramme with tlio stirring "Song of I
Ingland," nnd his round, beautiful
tones gavo a thrill to the listeners as
in the intense lefrain he repeated.
"If blood be tho ptiee of Admiralty,
Lend C!ol we have bought It fair!"
In, leading from the "IJarraek Room

which seemed to bo current with -ill
soldiers tho world over and quoted tho
daiing introduction:
"When 'Omor smote 'is bloomln'
lyie," and following with the tribute '
to Tommy Atkins, incidentally speak- i
Ing of the i umor that they are now
trying to Unci a name to tit the Amer
ican soldier, but that "Tommy Atkins" (
seems to be the only term that can
apply to tho man who is lu "Tho thin j
red line of "does."
Tho song of the Maiines, "Soldier
and Sailor Too," was given with the
musical swing and enthusiasm th.it tho
rollicking lines need, but thu climax
of the poetic Interpretation was
reached in "The Song of tho Hanjo "
The listeners wished the speaker would
suddenly sing out the ringing enthus
iastic strain tor the deep melodious
tones seemed to fit the tuneful theme
as n far off cathedral chime suits tho
chants onco sung by the monks of other
ages.
The story of the "Junior Orderly
Sergeant." who "shut his eyes lu the
sonny bo an' hadn't seen nothln'
wiong," was a selection whose humor
appealed to the audience, as did the
pathos In the tragic pictures of
"Choleia in Camp."
The tinale, as far as the Kipling pro
giammo was concerned, was that last
biautiful niosage in the "Seven Seas."
Tlio second pan was varied. Including
a masterly rendition of the Fotum
bcene fiom "Julius Caesar." An oilg-
lual and unique conception of the fa
mous negro melody plctuto of ".Mam
my's Lil' liaby Hoy," in this case tho
boy being "Dadd's," and tho final
chapter of Frank Stockton's "Rudder
Giange," whole L"uphemU's devotion
to Pomona's baby drives her husband
to tho desperate resort of hiring anoth
er baby from New Dublin, n Hibernian
child, whoso advent causes many hum
oious situations.
