It has been said of him that he began dictating stories to a long-suffering sister before he could write himself.1 Two enthusiasms seized him at about the same time one for Jesse James, the outlaw, and the other for C. James, the novelist. Perhaps the two were blended into one in the boy's eager mind.

At any rate, there wei-e desperate robber plays in the Tarkington barn, and the first pages of many tales of blood were written. They always began: "It was Blouse and Shirts mfy FOR TO GIVE FINAL CONCERT PPEARtNG as soloist at the final Boston Symphony Concert of the season, to be given in. the Lyric Theatre Tuesday evening, Mme. yEma Destinn. dramatic soprano, wiil sing arias, revealing two sides of her -art and personality.

As such she Vill sing arias by the two great composers of Bohemia: the love song from Dvorak's opera "Rus-salka" and the cradle song from Smeta-na's opera "The Kiss." Pierre Monteux will conduct at the same concert Berlioz's famous fantastic symphony, which was inspired by his now historical love story. It describes the "Dreams and Passions" of the composer, "A Ball," a "Pastoral Scene," "The March to the Scaffold" and the orgy of the "Witches' Sabbath." The performance of the work in Boston was generally conceded one of the finest achievements of the season.

The other numbers will be Borodin's sketch, "The Steppes of Central Asia'," and Wagner's overture to "The Flying Dutchman." CASALS TO BE SOLOIST dusk, and four horsemen were seen rid man admirers of Ann Pennington in this city, who is to be seen Tvith George White's "Scandals of 1919," have been delighted to find that the dainty dancer has seemeingly come into her own. It may be a matter of interest to know how Miss Pennington, her intimate friends call her "Penny," came to embrace a stage career. She was born in Wilmington, but at a very early age her family removed to Camden, N. just across the river from Philadelphia, and she went to school in the City of Brotherly Love. When quite young she became a member of a class et a dancing academy run by a man named Walter G.

Wroe, and it was at this academy that she learned to dance. Once Wroe put on an amateur performance with a number of his pupils, and he called them "Wroe's Buds." Ann was one of the dancers and she made puch a pronounced hit that she at once determined on a stage career, a determination that quickly overcame her parents' objections. Ziegfeld found in her one of his most attractive girls and it was not long before little Ann Pennington was one of the big attractions with the "Follies." She left Ziegfeld a couple of years ago to become a moving-picture actress and was starred in several film comedies. The silent drama did not appeal much to "Penny," although the size of the weekly pay roll did. At the termination of her picture contract Ann was engaged by George White for his "Scandals of 1919," and in that production her success has been greater than ever.

White and she had danced together in the "Follies" and it was but natural that he would desire her services in his own new production. That Ann Pennington is one of the most widely known dancers ou the American stage was made apparent by an incident that occurred recently in New York at the Liberty Theatre. It was during the actors' strike and the ''Scandals" had been closed the night before by a walkout of stage hands and Blouses 4.95 to 75.00 Shirts' 2.95 to 25.00 DISTINCTLY new note in blouses is the basque effect introduced by this shop and developed in various materials, including Tricolette.

These rambles sometimes terminated with midnight lunches of pie, watermelon, strong coffee and Welsh rarebits; He was sent to Phillips Exeter Academy for his preparatory and ex'entually entered Princeton.

Young Tarkington wrote, drew, sang, acted and composed and tilled a place in many lines of student activity, though he says it seemed to him now that he tried to avoid getting an education as much as possible. After graduating at Tarkington returned to Indianapolis to engage in his real avocation that of writer "fussin' with Literachoor," as he termed it.

A man came to the window and in a strong Southern accent asked for four seats "down front." The ticket seller politely informed him that there was "no show tonight." "You all don't tell me," he said. "My wife and kids shore will be disappointed. We are from Columbus, Texas, and this is our first trip to New York. The folks had seen Ann Pennington in the movies and when we saw by the papers that she was playing in New York, I kept promising them that I would take them to see her dance, and now I can't do it." uuiiHie its most suix-esoiiu scasuu iu Baltimore with a concert at the Lyric tomorrow night, at which Pablo Casals, the cellist, will make his first local appearance an several years.

Leopold Stokowski, the leader, will conduct. The program will be opened with great Minor Symphony No. 1, after which will come Lalo's Concerto for cello and in which Casals will be heard as the soloist. Lalo ranks with the foremost of modern Spanish composers and is particularly noted for the concerti he wrote for cello and violin.
