The past season has been a busy one, starting early and v closing late, with a sort of coda this week in the appearance of the Swedish singers at tHfe Audi- torium. Soon musicians and music- lovers alike will be turning to vaca- tional pursuits and environments, and with the exception of a series of pop- ular-priced operatic concerts at the Auditorium a little later, there is not much promised ahead in the shape of “musical entertainment.

Barrie’s comedy, “The Little Minis- ter,” that Maude Adams will be seen at the Brandeis on Tuesday and Wednesday and Wednesday after- noon, It is as Lady Babbie that the little actress made her first bow as a star and entered on a career that has had no parallel on the American stage. To many people the actress -| will always remain identified with “The Little Minister.” The play is in four acts and five scenes. There is a wealth of comedy in the work and Mr. Barrie takes many a sly dig ‘wt the peculiarities of the Scotch that e as a Scotchman knows so well. It is all in the best of humor. The characters afe capitally drawn. It is something worth while to know Lady Babbie. Her portrait hangs in the gallery of delightful and charming heroines, for she is intensely human and consistent as well as original. Miss Adams will be found surrounded by a company of much artistic ex- cellence. The performance of “The Little Minister” will probably be the last that Miss Adams will give in some time, as next season she is to make known Mr, Barrie's new com- edy. The four acts of the comedy are handsomely staged. & Edward Lynch and associate play- ers will open their fourth’ week’s en- gagement at the Brandeis theater to- morrow night, presenting “In Walked Jimmie,” a comedy-drama, which, R T TS IR S TR 1 5,000 Spectators See “SAXON SIX” win Against Higher-Priced‘ Cars at San Diego Exposition siting concerts, when everyone is ding money to hear some star is world-famo® and only comes several years, while the poor (the rds are sometimes synonymous) always with t);,er:l and hnb:ehbeen once or probably can be heard some other time, greater interest in music’ gen- ly will eventually react upon' lo- music; and when people turn their ition seriously to music they soon about to see what they have them to further their interest. ugh a great many outside con- detract from local recital work " mot general interest incites to .and the result cannot but be of nefit to all concerned.
