their operetta, "The Gypsy* Rover,"
The overture was played while a
large grdjui bf gypsies lay asleep on
beds of leaves In a camp. A tripod
under which fagots were aflame added
greatly to the reality of the scene,
while the brilliant costumes, spangles,
tambourines and castarets lent gypsy
flavor to the decorative scheme.

Lady Constance was delightfully
handled byfKatle Richardson, whose
platform presence and Inherent na

of movement In addition to. a voice,
mellow and clear even under the dif

Bettle Holden in the title role of
Rob, the Gypsy Rover, dashing and
gay In the |fypsies camp was none the
less polished gentleman of English
Society. Her strong, full voice link

pep made possible a most delightful
hero.
Together with Rob, Ora Hotdeli as
Slnfo gave us several duets of fine
quality, each voice complementing the
other most favorably.
The enseble work of the opera was
admirable, and the story told in spir
ited song proved the enthusiastic ef.
fort and training of student and direc
