Eleanor Brock, soprano, and Erno Dohanyi, pianist, gave a Jjoint recital last evening in the First Congregational Church_before an enthusiastic audi- ence which filled the church. Miss Brock has a light and very high voice of bird-like quality which is not lack- ing in warmth in the medium voice. Her singing shows study and consci- cntious work and her program was very aribitious, including the “Shadow Song” from “Dinorah.” "Her only en- core was the Swedish folk song made famous by Jenny Lind, “When I was Seventeen.” She was accompanied by Umberto Martucci, who played ex- cellent accomipaniments and substitut- ed for Alice Bracey. Mr. Dohnanyi, who is a distin- guished composer as well as pian layed Bach's ‘‘Fantasia in inor, ozagt’s “Sonata in A Major,” Beeth ven's “‘Sonata, Opus 27, famil- iarly known as the *Moo; t,” and a short_group of his own compositions. The Bach and Mozart numbers were delightful in the clearness and erisp- ness of technic. The Beethoven, how- ever, seemed marred by too much sus- taining pedal in the last movement. Mr. nyani's own compositions, were inferesting, the “March Humor- esque, Opus 17. No. 1, has marked rhythm. The “Pastorale, Opus 17, No. 4, a'charming number of more sim- plicity than the others, and the “Valse Impromptu, Opus 23, No. 2, is a’'num- per of brililance. This last, the valse, was repeated by the .Ampico and the accompaniment for Miss Brock's sing- ing of the “Little Pamozel” was alsq played by the same instrument.

Clarence Aspinwall saved several! hours of time at the dinner by eliminat- j ing four ficticious one-hour speech es, following objections from the floor. The menu was sumptuous. It started with grapefruit and fresh strawberries and ended with apricot glace melba, with' delicious queen chicken, Smithfield ham and aigailette of Potomac bass| filling the gap. Then there was a dis- tribution to the guests of special prizes, contributed by club members, that would have done credit to Croesus.

Articles from The Evening Star were used to illystrate an address on feature stories which was given yes- terday afternoqn before the class in journalism at ~ George Washington University by J. R. Hildcbrand of the club, greeted the guests and turned | & editorial staff of the National Geo- |8 graphic Society. He advised the students against at- tempting to write feature stories at first, but rather to learn to know news —for. he said, an article has a slim chance if it is not hung on news, and if the writer has not the news in- stinct he will not know how to write a feature story. Mr. Hildebrand described the vari- ous classes of such articles and men tioned. the Washington field as one in which correspondents gave special attention to interpretative features. to be a strong product here. The human side was declared to be represented in every type of this form of newspaper writing. —_— Under the English law a house- holder is liable to a fine of $25 if a mouse is found in his cupboard.
