Miss Lillian Ammalee, who is to! give a matinee recital in the high school auditorium Tuesday afternoon, won high praise from the New York critics when ehe made her debut in the metropolis. . . The talented young pianist's first New York recital was given in Aeolian Hall and the accounts of it in the newspapers were unusually complimentary. Her brilliant European career helped to establish her in New York. Following are a few of the notices given by New York critics: The American "Lillian Ammalee, a girl from the Golden West, made her New York debut as a pianist in Aeolian Hall last nixht. The many who heard her play an unusual program were convinced that she is a musician with rare gifts, that she possesses mechanical proficiency but makesthat quality merely a means to an end. Her interpretations illustrated a well-developed sense of beauty, style and persuasive charm without which the art of piano playing is devoid of interest and Inspiration. Amazing Brilliancy. "Perhaps her most interesting number was tho Cadmah sonata, which, like nearly all of that composer's

works leaned heavily on American Indian folk music. In this, Miss Ammalee played with ama2ing brilliancy, faultless instinct for . melodious phrase, a touch that was impeccable and well-defined rhythm." The Tribune "In the evening Miss Lillian Ammalee, an American pianist who has played much abroad, made her New York debut and revealed a genuine talent. Miss Ammalee, in her playing of the Bach English suite and the Cadman Sonata disclosed a remarkable facile technique, a clear though somewhat hard tone, a just sense of rhythm and a musical instinct at once cound and brilliant. She Is an artist who ought to be heard from In the future, an artist distinctly above the average mark." Miss Ammalee will appear with Myrtle Holmes Stant, of Dublin, dramatic soprano, who has won an enviable recital reputation on the Pacific coast. The recital is at 2:30 and there will be no admission fee. A silver offering will be taken, the proceeds to go to the picture fund of the Art association. The Art association, the Pedestrian and Music Study clubs are sponsoring the recital.

BRITISH ARMY HEADQUARTERS In France Sunday, Nov. 25. By The Associated Press This morning found the line of battle of the weary but determined British troops stretched in a semi-circle about Bourlon wood and Vourlon Village, which nestles at the northwestern edge of the forest. It was a line which had been established in the face of dogged resistance on the part of the Germans who had fallen back step by step, fighting with the fury of despair. All day yesterday the opposing fOrecs struggled bitterly at close quarters for possession of the little village from which the British were forced Friday after gaining a footing in the ruins that took them through Bourlon wood. Nightfall still found waves or Infantry surging back and forth through the streets of tho hamlet and among the houses, their crimson bayonets telling the the story of the terrible conflict being waged. Gradually the Germans fell back, the British pressing forward with grim persistence which the enemy eould net withstand and the hamlet was Shally cleared of the major portion of the German troops. Few Still Remain Today some few of the enemy still remained in Bourlon to be mopped up but all the main streets of the place had been cleared and it was surroundd by a strong force of British soldiers. A little to the southwest of

here another intense struggle was being Btaged in the village of Moeuvres, into which the British had battled their way with rifle and bayonet ana pushed the Germans out of the south

ern half. Elsewhere along the Cam

brai front there was" nd infantry ac

tion or importance. In the capture of Bourlon wood and

village the, British have acquired possession of one of thel most Important

points they have secured since the great drive began last Tuesday. This high ground controls a wide sweep of territory and its occupation holds out the possibility that tho Germans eventually will be forced to withdraw their lines to the northwest. Tho Bourlon position also overlooks Cambrai but this city might be a hard nut to crack because the central part is walled and many suburbs radiate from it, forming natural barriers against an advance from the west It seems possible that Cambrai might ultimately become a sort of No Man's Land, dominated by the big guns or both sides- and that this ancient town with its fine old cathedral and picturesque buildings would go the way of so many other places which come under artillery fire. A large amount of traffic in the last few dayB has been pouring out of Cambrai toward the southeast, indicating the probability that the Germans have evacuated the civilian population and are preparing for eventualities That the Germans attached greatest importance to Bourlon wood and the village was fully evidenced by their strenuous resistance and. the -intense counter-attacks hurled against the British lines. Several counter- thrusts were delivered by the enemy Saturday. Some cf them succeeded temporarily but the British immediately pushed forward again and regained the lost ground. .

Revelations of a Wife BY ADELE GARRISON

HER ARTISTIC SOUL When Dicky told me that he had just had a telephone message saying that Bess Jarsden would not be able to come to our little chafing dish supper because of her brother's illness in Chicago, my 'first felling was that of relief. I had -so dreaded to meet this woman, of whose life 1 disapproved, that the postponement of the ordeal appeared to me very much as I imagine a reprieve must be to a condemned murderer. . I suppose my face must have reflected my feeling, for the scowl on Dicky's face deepened. "You seem so pleased over your escape that if would be a pity not to graify you further," he said slowly. "I think I had better telephone Lil and the Lesters, and call the whole thing

off for tonight." I had a strong inclination to say curtly, "Please yourself," and thus get rid of the whole affair. I understood" Dicky's explosive temper well enough by this time to know that any irritating remark of mine at this" juncture would result in bis telephoning his prospective guests to stay at home, regardless of what they might think. But my pride urged me to save the situation at all costs. The Lesters, whom I had never met, might accept whatever excuse Dicky might choose to give, -but I knew that Lillian Gale would realize the true situation in a flash. She would know that Dicky and I had quarreled over our guests, and I was horribly afraid that she would imagine that the primary cause of the quarrel was my jealousy of herself. A Diplomatic Decision Fear of this last possibility had become almost an obession with me. I would not admit even to the most remote secret cell of my brain the thought that I Was' jealous cf this old friend of Dicky's. Disapprove-fct her.'

! most certainly; dislike her, T admitted

it; but stoop to be Jealous of her never! I told myself fiercely. T realiz

ed that I would do almost anything to

keep her from guessing my dislike of her, for fear she mi?ht call "dislike" jealousy. . ' So I put down with an iron hand my inclination to say something irritating to Dicky, and thus at one stroke eliminate all possibility of ever having to

entertain Lillian Gale, instead I forc

ed a smile to my lips, and al traces of annoyance out of my voic;. "Don't be absurd, Dicky," I said pleasantly. "You are Imagining things.

I certainly am-not pleased to learn of

Miss Marsden's trouble, and you surely are jesting when you speak of doing

so discourteous a thing as recalling your invitations for tonight. I never

should be able to face Mrs L'nderwood

again, If you did a thing bo humiliat

ing to me as that."

"1 don't think that last possibility would cause you any very great grief," muttered Dicky, but I knew from his face and manner that I had won, and

that he would soon be Over his lrrita Hon. .

"By the way. Dicky." I was glad Of

the opportunity to ask bim a friendly

question, "did you-ge'. the flowers? "Right here," Dicky's voice was pleasant as he sprang to his feet and handed me an enormous box which lay on a chair near him. "I hope .they will suit you." "Suit me!" I exclaimed. I had un

done the box and uncovered a great

cluster of golden daffodils and snowy narcissus, with the feathery green of the malden-bair ferns completing the

incarnation of spring they seemed. "They are exactly what-1 want against that rather, dull green of the diningroom paper." "You have an artistic soul!" commented Dicky idly, and I felt my face flush. I knew he meant nothing jry the remark, but I am both foolishly sensitive and self-conscious, and it flashed over me that I had been prating of color tones and combinations when my knoweldge was as nothing compared to that possessed by my artist husband. To Be Continued.
