And Miss Gordon's voice last night wasn't quite up to itself. It eeemed to Be slightly under the weather. In the first moment especially it sounded as though it had caught cold and wouldn't be out for a week or two, But the best waltz wong of the year helped It out Immensely.

The frost that seems | @ part of Miss Gordon's tey peraonality melted and the waltz alr warmed the| audience to a degree that left cold feet out of the question. | While the star glittored in her usual wintry way, ehe was a sight worth see-| ing, first in green and white that suggested a good “ad.” for spring water and @ then In a gown that put all doubts as to our gold reserve at reat.
