Isaacson, music director and composer of note, was one of the most unusual and artistic programs ever given in this city. His company of artists were equally as good and their part in the entertainment was played to perfection. Mr. Isaacson’s ability as a Music Master was proven throughout the program. He loves music and is anxious to teach his audience the beauty and merits of it. He is filled with music, its charms and beauty and with his wonderful imagination and descriptive powers makes his audience sense his feelings and clearly depicts the scenes which he wishes to convey In connection with the music and singing. He is gifted with an imagnation equalled by few and his eloquence Is rare. He can discuss his subject in away, simple in itself, yet powerful in results, In That he can convey his meaning and make his audience appreciate the interpretations. As a Music Master he is worthy of the title and those who heard and saw him and his company of splendid artists in “A glimpse into the heart of Franz Schubert.” "A Little Journey into Russia." which wag an imaginative visit into the various castes of Russia, its life, habit and emotions and his own adaptation of •’Verdi’s emotional grand opera. Aida,” and hh interpretation of the story were moved with his eloquence and sincerelty In his work. Mr. Isaacson made you like grand opera, see its beauty and one of the good results, one of his real accomplishments while here yesterday, was to Instill the desire among local people and music lovers to form a grand opera company. If all grand opera was presented like Mr. Isaacson has the power to do. there would be many more supporters and lovers of the drama. Yesterday was truly a day for music lovers at the ChatHauqua and the program given was far above expec tat lons, novel, entertaining and one which we are not priviledged to see and hear every day. It Is regrettable that the advance sale of season tickets for the Community Chautauqua has not reached the quota expected and If some plan cannot be worked out today to Increase the sale a deficit will be suffered. This should not be, The propram given here this year la exceptional. entertaining and educational end It should be Supported by a number greater than the patronage no far given.

Flashlights of Famous People [

Face to Face With Lenore Ulrich America’s Young Premier Emotional Actress (By Joe Mitchell Chapple) When the little lass from Minnesota met David Belasco she had it, firmly fixed in her mind that she was going to be a star. What sort of a star she did not declare, but after a few rehearsals. David Belasco nodded his gray head approvingly, and that was ( she beginning of a new name in the theatrical firmament. At the age of sixteen Lenore Ulrich began her stage career. She was not worried by theories or higher education, but had definitely decided in her own little head what she was going to do. While her talent was apparent it did not altogether impress the neighbor-folk because she was young —and they said she would outgrow It all when she married and settled down on Main Street . She aspired to play "Camille" when in short skirts, having truly hitched her little wagon to a star. Play after play, day after day, in every way. under the keen eye and, vigorous training of David Belasco. 1 the genius of Lenore Ulrich blossomed. Best of all. ’.he process d d not take the bloom of youth from her cheek for she carried in her wistfulness, that fine enthusiasm that youth alone sustains. Appearing in the gorgeous oriental setting of "The Son Daughter.” a play of new China, her fame spread abroad There was a cable request from England to have Miss Ulrich presented at London play houses, but David Belasco decided to wait for there were other plans. Lenore Ulrich, garbed n brocaded robes stiff with gold embroideries and with manicured tapering fingers strumming a Chinese mandolin, may have stamped her foot now and then in temperamental protest, but she realized that age and experience has something to ' offer youth in helpfulness: for is not youth but living over and over again what happened to their elders* Full-blown came her success In “The Tiger Rose," a "longrun” trl-

candidate for president, the New York World says editorially: “A number of other dark horses are entered with the same hope and plan, but the most expert handler of dark horses in the convention is Thomas T. Taggart. of Indiana, who Is grooming Senator Ralston. Mr. Taggart believes that he can show all the other trainers the slowest start on record, so slow that it will almost seem as If the senator is left at the post, and then a gathering of speed and sinew which will project Mr. Ralston from a deliberate last to an equally deliberate first." The democratic convention will be filled with thrills today. The nominating of candidates will be carried out during the day and the resolutions and platform committees will make their reports before the session adjourns. There is a possibility that balloting for the nominee may start today, but indications are that thia will be carried over until Friday. i The McAdoo men put on a 64-mln-ute demonstration following his formal nomination yesterday and today when Al. Smith's name is presented, hla supporters are planning to out do the McAdoo crowd. Something doing all the time in the big convention. i I, o "*■* • FRIENDSHIP When the sun of friendship shines On a heart that once was cold Then., rare buds of beauty burst.— Flowers of grace and truth unfold. • / And these blossoms grow in clusters, tdke a crimson rambler rose.— | Words and deeds, unselfish, pure.

LENORE ULRICH says: “I want every individual in the ( audience to feel as I do when I am trying to express an emotion.” umph. The soul and spirit of the play gave this little lady with artistic in- ( stincts shining .n every feature and ( every graceful movement of her lithsome form, an opportunity to test his- ( torlc qualities. Lenore Ulrich m varled atmospheres and environs may ' play the Wild West, the exotic Orient: ] or what not! She has demonstrated that universality of human emotion ' and feeling. This little lady of the big brown eyes and lips with a natural cupid’s bow. not artilcial in outline—even in makeup—is a womanly girl and a j girlish woman. Whether expressing queenly mein, suppliant despair, or humility. Lenore Ulrich runs the full gamut of dramatic art. She can most certainly strum the harp of human ■ emotions. In the production "Kiki" Lenore Ulrich has just closed one of the most I phenomenally successful engagements in the history of the American theatre. She began to do that wonderful characterization of Kiki in ( November. 1921. This, one of the I most exacting emotional parts ever] written, she has played for one thou- . i sand performances. i Well deserved is her European trip this summer, her first vacation In . three years. "One of the first places I shall • visit in France will be Bernhardt’s l tomb. She was the great artist and > my heroine, for she fulfilled my Ideal t of art.” i "Oh? about my work*" • “1 want every indiv dual in the i audience to feel as I uo when I. am - trying to express an emotion.”
