Madame Leon Roth- |er an opera singer of gracious per- sonality, and wife of the basso of the lavinia Opera company, gave a song re- cital which delighted her hearers. Her iroice, a clear soprano, flexible and beau- tifully cultivated, showed its sympathy, jmd its clarity of tone, in its higher reg- ister especially, in the songs she chose Ko sing which suited the simple infor- fmality of the occasion. Among her se- lections were the "Aria" from "Butter- fly." "If Flowers Could Speak," "Memo- ries" and "Stars." Mrs. Hubert Con- over played her accompaniments. Several Glencoe children gave three group dances and two solo numbers, in- terspersing their program with that of Madame Rothier. The quaint period costumes of the "Gavotte," the delicate lavender and yellow shades of the "Dres- den China Dolls," and the little children in their Grecian costumes of pink satin, with garden flower garlands of pastel shades dancing "In a Greek Garden" blended most artistically with the natural setting of the beautiful, secluded grounds of Craigie Lea.
