Hope Sum- mers of Wilrnett!e read :to a, ..#rowded hall at the. Wom.an's Club of Wil-nmette, Wednesday' afternoon of last week, when she appeared, on the ctlub's Fine, Arts" day. program. Miss. Snm- mers presented ".Wild Decem- bers" by, Clarence Dane, sub- mnittinrg an. interpretation as, classic 'ally. pure and artistic as the severe lines of.ber flame red afternoon dress. This bistorical play,-brings -ta if e the Bronte -falily whose two famous- members are th sister nôvelists, Charlotte and Emily, authors of "Jane Eyre" and "Wuthering Heights." TQ learn the part and convey the personality of a single character in each 'play is the task of actor or ac- tress. , Miss Summers repeats the. huies and creates the personalities of eývery character in' "Wild. Decem- bers." Wbat sustaied concentration, and what mental and eniotional agil- ity are required of such a perform- ance, is almost beyond the compre- hension of an average audience. Vet Miss Summers met every deniand of an expert play.reader. Her voice, for- tunatebi,' embraces both masculine' and femiinine range so that she cary act an irate old mnan, a drunken broth- er, a French schooi mistress, or the Bronte sisters, Amne, Emily and Chiar-- lotte, with equal yeri-similitude. Gestures, of which there were many, she confined to the subtle and incon- spicuons, thereby conveying just enough of, the action to clarify the thread of the story, without diverting attention from the dominant tragic tone. "Wild Decembers," by the way, is a drama so, tragle .that were it flot for its historical autbenticity, one would say, "Beautiful! But how ýthe Il at- Mr. and Mrs. Charles Nace Rani- i she sey,, 1517 Highland avenue, Wil- nette mette, are motoring this week to Miss Miami, Fia, for a month's vacation. and. Accompanying them, is their son, John, of Rockford, Ill.
