young women and four young
men appeared on the --ogram.
The program was varied and well
balanced. Much interest was
shown in each singer, hearty en
cores bing given for all. Miss
Trista Wenger's rich. f"'l con
tralto voice was heard first in
two excellent songs, thpn as an
encore the humorous but diffi
cult "House That Jack Built."

Her voice is flexible and sweet,

Angela Pattl of Arras, France, is
neart or tho French House started
this fall at the State college of
Washington: Here French and
French only is spoken, the girls
be4hg fined the immense sum of
one cent every time they forget
rrttd usa an English expression.
When the fines have accumulated
sufficiently there is "jam for tea'
Of flomd special dainty or enter
tainment for the group.
1 "It is a most unusual oppor
tunity for these girls to acquire a
ready ; use of I conversational
French,:' said , Professor F. C.
Chalfant, head of the Modern
Language department, in discus
sing the new enterprise. "You
see, they are under the constant
supervision of a native French wo
man of education and refinement,
whose accent is perfect and who
can teach them to qse the idiom so
that, by the time they have lived
together a year in this way, they
are ready to take advanced cour
ses in the language in the class
room. We give the equivalent of
three semester hours credit for
the French they acquire in this
way. Jt is, of course, necessary
that the preceptress make a
recommendation in each case that
the student deserves the credit.
She knows from her close contact
With the girls whether they have
learned enough of the language to
justify college credit. We consider
ourselves very fortunate indeed to
have found a woman of Mile.
Petit's ability and training for this
position, for she fits it exactly."
i Mile. Petit comes to Washington
from St. Catherine's College, St.
Paul, Minn., where she has taught
French while completing her study
of English as one of the first of
the government student's sent
from France to the United States,
by the Association of American
Colleges.
"I came on my diploma from
the normal school ; in the north
of France where I was educated,
at Dohetn, for 11 years," said
Mile. Petit. "We begin the train
ing of our teachers in France the
minute they enter school. Even
the very little children have their
attention called constantly to the
manner of doing things, saying,
'You must notice, for some day
you will; be called upon to do it.
You are going to be; a teacher.'
i "The course for teachers is very
thorough. They get a good foun
dation in everything physics,
les, history, home economics, ev
chemistrjr, language, mathemat
erythlng.i So it never happens as
with vour high school teaching
that a pupil shall say, 'I can't take
that college course because I nave
not had the prerequisite courses.
Mile. Petit was for six yeare a
teacher In a girl's school at the
French coast resoTt of Dieppe,
Le Assoclacion Dleppeis, 100
miles from her home, which was
a suburb of Arras, near the Bel-
elan border in France
! "Assas was. as you know, de
stroyed by the bombardment of
the Germans," she I said. "From
our home we could see both the
French and German lines, and
some 40 miles beyond the German
trenches, You know it Is very
flat country there.! My father
was principal of a school In Ar
ras. When the war first began
his schobl building was taken by
the military and he had to wait
until they relinquished It before
he could resume teaching. He
kept on,: however, as soon as
possible, i i For whether there was
war or peace, France must eau
cate her children for the future.

the end of the 12 days the work of
the applicants is compared! and
the prize awarded. And a woman

Indication of what French women
are going to do, the increasing

Five Washington towns are ren
resented by the girls in the
French house: Anatone. Asotin
uneney, colville, and Edwall. All
of the girls are majoring in for
eign languages with an intention
of teaching When they .have com
pleted their- work. They have
French table in the Stevens hall
dining room, as they can thus ob
tain board at a much loyer rate
than it they had to maintain a
separate dining room in the
French house. At the table, how
ever, as at home, they speak only
rencn. So if a eirl foreets the
French for cream she must either
be rude and point, or pay a fine
for using English or drink her
coffee black. Under those cir
cumstances the French words
stick in the memory more ten
aciously than in the classroom.

JMbs Garrison is the first Am
erican prima donna who has been
chosen to sing the principal solo
ratura roles of the Metropolitan
Opera company in New York.
Last spring Miss Garrison made
two "brilliant appearances in Lon
don one with the New York
symphony, the other a recital in
Queen's hall. The English press
received her with gratifying en
thusiasm. A notice from the Lon
don Post reflects the unanimous
London opinion:
Miss uarrison has a soprano
voice of great beauty and a meth
od of using it vastly superior to
that of the majority. Her pro
gram well illustrated the extent
of her powers. Her interpreta
tion of old French songs is so
complete as to constitute an en
tertainment In itself. The runs
in Fourdrain's a dmirable ar
rangement of the '11 etait une
Bergere,' like thefioriture in the
"Queen of. the Night' song, were
the perfection of vocal control.
With this command of execution
she unites tone of great charm
and distinction, so that she may
well take a foremost place among
fingers. Her temperament which
is so marked a feature of her
singing, found a most congenial
medium in folk songs of all coun
tries, and the whole recital served
to show that In Miss Garrison we
have an English-speaking singer
who constitutes a erpetual attrac
tion."
