She gave a most interest ing account of a tripthat she made not long ago to vari ous sections of South America. She gave, in addition to a fine talk on the people of the sections she visited, a very fine lesson in geography. In every way she proved herself over again the very able woman that she is. In addition to her unusually fine talk there was a good number by the choir and an overture by the orchestra.
