The reason for the. lack of publ'c support at this concert Is probably be cause many families recognize Sunday afternoon as the only time in the week when they can enjoy home qulenly to sether.

From time to time the cabby would turn around for further directions and Miss Bauer would, motion him lo go on. saying "sempro, scmpre." Finally she was tired of riding, but no matter how she racked her brain she could not find a word in hCr Italian repertoire to make the cabby stop. Curiously enough It did not occur to her that she might ! simply give the address of her hotel. Si:e was bent on finding tne Italian word for. "stop" or "enough." Mean time cabby drove on and on.

Of these, ten had already been filled in the East at a total loss of S10.U0O. This, however, was anticipated, as Eastern concerts, as a rule, are not profitable, but are undertaken simply for the prestige they give the artists. I had expected in the remaining 26 concerts to more than make up these losses. I have gone to considerable expense in advertising, traveling and other booking expenses in the inter ests of these singers, and I am at a loss to explain this unheard-of pro cedure. My contract with them pro vided for postponement only in case of Illness, but by no means were they allowed to cancel their tour as they have done. I consider their action nothing short of a breach of contract." m At a party given last week by the Tuesday Afternoon Club at the home of Mrs. Harry K.
