Her pro gram was brief and modern, embrac ing selections from author', who have touched the hearts of people most closely- From the character of the typical small town by ia his teens, so inimi tably portrayed by Booth Tarking ton in "Seventeen," to tho patrician English mother, bowed but not broken under the over-powering news of her son's death in the trenches, Miss El liott sustained the parts with a rare faithfulness and ardor. In her second number, known to the many lovers of Kathleen Norris, under tho simple cap tion of "Mother," she revealed with tenderness and pathos the fond mother that the world loves. She closed as an oneore with an Inspiring war poem, "For France," picturing with poigan cy the tragic personal note of the great war just behind us.

Miss Mare has bees heading a troupe of players entertairiaz at the front, and the latest isene of "Stars aad Stripes," the official newspaper of . the A. E. P., hag the fallowing to say of her activities over there: The troupe headed by Margaret Mayo, the author of "Baby Mine" and "Twin Beds," has been pUiying in the forest of Argonne itself, playing with the boys applauding from the trees, playing in the rain and fog and the mud till they have no voices left. lb certainly sounds like the good old days to hear a gallery full of Ameri cans, all stamping and cheering and whistling their approval. There is ev erything there but the peanuts. They roar with delight when lovely Lois Meredith gazes upon them, and the roof threatens to eome off the theater when Elizabeth Brice comes dancing to the footlights, swinging her shoulders and putting all the pep in the world into her old songs. Just as she used to in the Keith houses back home, so there at the front she sings, "Buzz Around, Buza Around," and "Come, Let's Set tle Down" till the boys fairly split with their whistling. They made this old theater rock on its anc-ent founda tions, and Miss Mayo retired that night an exhausted but satisfied woman. Next morning, while she was trying to negotiato a bit of bread without a. bread ticket it can't ba done her breakfast was halted by a visitation. Some high local functiona-y, sporting one of the few silk hatg loft in Ar gonne, called upon her, bowed eight times, made a speech about "hands across the sea" and "jniq'au bout," and then assured her that the French people were deeply grieved by tho rude ness to Miss Brice evidenced the night before. They wished her to vnderstand ho said, that none of fhe Frenchmen, present had any part in the outrageous1 j whistling. Furthermore, they could not account for such a manifestation of displeas ure, for, he said, Miss Brice 's perform ance was "tout a fait charmante, cpa tanto, dclicieuse." Four interpreters were hastily sum moned and it was thoroughly explain ed that whereas in 'France whistling means disapproval, in America it'. just another way of saying, "Keep it up, Elizabeth, your show's great."
