It needs some one wbo is familiar with its problems and those of the communities outside the big, bustling, prosperous city of Chicago. Uptown Chicag\J has definitely cone into the show business as part of its promotional ·plans. This is a most atpazing innovation among community boosting plans. This year the five Uptown Civic Matinees, at the Aragon, just completed with the last matinee February 26, has proved such a gratifying success that Uptown Chicago is planning a similar series for next year. · The dates of these next year matinees are not as yet announced, but it is tentatively planned 'that they will follow very much after the popular series of this season. Much speculation was rife as to Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Miller of 2829 Sheridan place, who have been visiting whether or not certain experiments their son, Norman, at Cornell college, in connection with this series would prove satisfactory. For the first time returned home last week. in the history of Uptown, the Aragon was chosen for community entertainments. As this is the largest hall of its kind on the north side, as well as the most beautiful and elaborate, it was doubtful if the hall could be filled. However, for the first matinee, a concert given by Madame Muzio of the Chicago Civtc Opera company, the Aragon was tilled to capacity and overflowing. Each following matinee the hall was most gratifyingly full, with the Will Rogers performance, the fourth matinee, again having a considerable overflow. A much greater variety was offered this season than ever before. The classic Russian dancer, Vera Mirova, who presents startlingly interesting interpretations of Oriental dances, was a departure from the usual musical numbers. So keen was the interest in her performance that dancers will undoubtedly be featured on future programs. Will Rogers, the humorist, was a decidedly new step. The enthusiasm with which his matinee was greeted leaves no room for doubt as to the advisability of featuring such a matinee another season. Six Bernie Special Jose Echaniz, the Cuban pianist, who was early mtroduced to Chicago Portraits through Uptown concerts, proved a great drawing card. The music critics were very emphatic in their praise of his concert. .Francis Macmillen, the popular violinist, Glenn Drake, Mary McCormic, Fritz Renk, . and the Regular $10 Value \¥oman's Symphony orchestra, under the leadership of Ethel Leginska, all On llllf} 1 we will mof1f to ow contributed to making this series as ntW ltrulio. 1623 SherlfMIJ ·Utnw. high class a group of entertainments as ever was offered in Chicago. . oppotitt POito·t. respectively, are the su~Jects of the guide-lecture tours at Faeld Museum of Natural History, Chicago, Monday, lfarcb · 12.
