THE COURIER CLUB NOTES THE WEEK'S REVIEW A program of high order and unus ual Interest was given on Monday afternoon before the Matinee Musi rale illustrating the Gypsy Element in music. The program was arranged by the third division assisted by Mr. Aug ust Hagenow and Mr. Alexander Mer ger and reflected great credit on the leaders, Mrs. E. Lewis Baker and Miss Knslgn. The stage was arranged with brilliant colored Navajo blankets to represent a gypsy camp ami a part of the performers were dressed in gypsy costume. A most pleasing feature of the program was the group of songs given by four young ladles who had been drilled by Mrs. Ilaker. Their singing showed a high degree of finish and blending and gave a very vivid picture of gypsy life. The scene from Carmen given by Mrs. Kaker. assisted by Miss Agnew and Mrs. Hart, also deserves special mention and was gi-c-n with true dramatic style and col oring. The music throughout was very bril liant. Mrs. Will Owen Jones played a Liszt rhapsody in a most delightful manner and the string numbers were given with the same brilliant abandon, which characterized the entire pro gram. Miss Herrick, who appeared for the firsttimebefore a Matinee Musicale audience, played her solo and two ac companiments with taste and expres sion and Miss Murphy's songs were charmingly rendered.
