As an Interpicter he ranks llRYRfl with the best men on the public plat- HrYrR fonu today, and he has a pcisonal !&!H chat in that few can resist. His voice HRRa is smooth, well modulated, resonant, wKwRa musical In fact, and when at his best IHrRR It Is possible for one to forget the In- iflRYRa terpictatlon and listen to tho voice. HIVrYJ Prof. Clark's appearance here last year IIIrYrI was deemed the most satisfactory m treat of the season and he can number w RRRJ his admiicisbv his licaicrs.

IrVrI The Washington Post sas: "Mr. liH Claikasan intellectual and talented KnRR Interpieterof the drama of high-class fijfl litciatuie, Is piobably unexcelled in mCrYr tills country; his work is so thorough, Hl so compiehcnslvc and so dignified that ERvR he I in pi esses a culttued audience as IrVrI lew elocutionists aie able to do." KRI Ashcville (N. C.) College Monthly H sajs: "Thecntlic evening was devot- RvRa ed to "King Lear," which the reader SftRfl gave w ithout change of costume or of RARfl scenery. Mr. Clark, by virtue of tho H position he holds In a great university RARfl and of the many favorable opinions of H his woik preccediughlm, had to meet JRvR large expectations. We knew that ttWRa whatever he undertook would be well IrVr done, but that thcbieathof hlssym- HvRfl pathlcs, and the icach of his art, H'rYJ would perfectly compass tho whole IrVJ gamutof character hi this complex of I'RvJ Shakespearean tragedies, was of a ua- StrYJ tuieof a surprise. No presentation IurVJ of a Shakespearean drama has been !Ra more to our liking. Every person o'f HrYJ the play seemed to be fully understood IjMrI and duly set forth not In as many sH stago lepresen tat Ions, where one or slRR two meritorious actors accentuate the PflYJ shoit-coinlngsof the rest, and where wflYJ the effect of the play as a whole Is uARJ usually far fiom satisfactory. Mr. RARj Clark's line voice and tino presence jHARJ ate factors, but his Intelligent grasp RKRJ of the matter he reads, In Its breadth R&Rj and detail, hi conjunction with per- H feet mastery of the ait of elocution, WRR accounts for his success."
