In this year ' s production, the orchestra gave an excellent performance ot the hackneyed score. Much credit is due to Mr. Hauptmann for being able to do what he has done with his unpromising materials. Miss Mignon Haag, who played the feminine lead, has one of the rnost charming voices we have had the pleasure to hear, and Evalyn Smylie and Ruth Selkirk gave her excellent support. Truman Curtis, remembering his success in lolanthe, packed the entire first act of Princess Ida under his arm and walked off with it in the role of King Hilarion. Clifton Hanning, Rodolphe Demers, and Robert Carter scored high success with their clowning. Eliza- beth Talbot-Martin and Eola Clark appropriated encores to themselves. (Page Fifty-nine)
