Show Idol of the Girls. Of Mile. Chaminade, with whose compositions every lover of music is fond and familiar, Ethelyn Friend Mid-dleton Mid-dleton writes in Ladies' Home Journal: "She is as sweet and unaffected as is her work. She is absolutely lacking in ; pope or self consciousness most strangely so when one reflects howl widespread is her fame and that many ' months of every year of her life have j been spent on the concert platform. She is a tiny woman, with a dainty, well rounded, little figure and quick, I Dira-like movements, iter nanus are the prettiest imaginable white, smooth, with long, nervous fingers, but email. Her hair is cut fn short curls, parted on one side, and her skin is. fair and fresh. Her face has a boyish look, and it is decidedly gentle and mobile. She has but one great enthusiasm, and that la for work. She practices but little lit-tle now only when preparing her programme pro-gramme for a .concert tour or on the daya when she is to play in public. Her best efforts are directed toward, composition, and the playing of the piano Is with her a secondary thing." -1 |
