In 1920 Mins ¢€ tle discovered hernelf. She was led to this discovery by a teacher, and, strange as it may seem, @ teacher who does not want more pupils, and one who shuns publicity And this teacher is responsible for the new and added beauty that every critic ts finding in Mins Gentle’s glorious voice. Miss Gentle will appear here o tomorrow aht as Ploria with Antonio 8 role of Scarpia, and on Thursday she will introduce Massenet's one-act opera, “la Navarraise,” to the Seattle audience, appearing as Anita This opera was produced in London for the first time in 1895, and in this country in the summer of 1920 at Ravinia Park, Chicago, with Alice Gentle. The scene is laid outaide the lines of @ Basque village in Spain during the Carlist war of 1874. A battle ts going on and at the rise of the cur. tain, soldiers are falling back wound. ed, Anita, a girl from the Basque provinces, is seen in the foreground, with women of the village, anxiously awaiting the return of her lover, Araquil, a young sergeant of the Biseayan regiment. Anita is dest tute. All of her people have been killed and ber village is in ruins. She finds her lover among the re treating nd wounded soldiers. He im wafe, and, during the love duet which follows, his father, Remigio, enters and interrupts them. He has long known and disapproved of his son's affection for Anita, The scene ends with his forbidding his son to see Anita again. He makes further relationship between tem more dif- fieult by telling Anita when she can bring to him a dowry of 2,000 douros | she can marry his son. This, the father thinks impossible, for Anita is penniless. A moment later | Araquil is en further away from Anita by being made a Heutenant by General Garrido, Anita's despair iw increased thereby, for she realizes this promotion makes her marriage more impossible. Araquil and his father depart, leaving Anita in despair. The general is seated at a table in front of headquarters, study- ing the plans of attack for the mor- row. Ramon, a captain, enters and telly the general of further atrocities of the opposing General Zucarraga. Garrido, swearing vengeance on Zuecarraga, says that he would give a fortune and the cross of war to the soldier who would kill him tn battle. Anita, apart, overhears him and con- celves the idea of killing Zucarraga herself, thereby winning the dowry and insuring her marriage to Ar quil. She tells the general that she will free him of Zucarraga if he will give her two thousand douros. Gar. rido listens to her, half increduousty, believing her demented. Anita mis takes his silence for consent and rushes off to fulfill her compact. ‘The scene has become dark, the soldiers group themselves about the fire for a few moments’ rest. Ramon enters, telling Araquil, Anita has been seen entering the camp of the enemy. Araquil, stung by jealousy, rushes off to find her. The soldiers sleep, during which there is a beaw tiful Intermezzo by the orchestra.
