V
LONDON, June 24 (Correspondence
of Associated Press).—Americans who
have not been in London since the
beginning of hostilities, but who are
now here in large numbers, are finding
many changes in the city and its in
stitutions. Particularly is this true
of the theaters and music halls, where
in other days they enjoyed the audi
ence as much as they did the pro
gram.
One American went to the Alham
bra the other night. There he had
often seen the ballet, but there now
he found a new world. There was a
ballet, to be sure, but this time it was
a Russian ballet. But what surprised
him most was that between each bal
let the excellent orchestra, conducted
g, by a capable Russian, played classical
* music, and the audience sat still and
listened to it. Very few people left
their seats, and the girls in the side
rows did not ogle the young men in
the stalls. There seemed to be no
more connection between the perform
ers and the audience than there usu
ally is at a concert. It was not so in
other days.
The audience, too, surprised him.
It wras of the thoughtful kind, and
more fashionably gowned than before
the war. Nearly everyone, he ob
served, was in evening clothes, the
women paying particular attention to
the mode of the moment. A notice
asked the audience to “smoke as lit
tle as possible,” and, as he remarked,
there was no “vocal” evidence of the
proximity of the bar.
In a one-time musical hall where a
popular actress was being featured,
and where the sallies from the stage
formerly were greeted with uproarious
laughter, there wrns now nothing more
apparent than good-humored toler
ance.
“I suppose it is the war,” he said; I
“for it is certain the Londoner is tak
ing his pleasures much more seriously
than when I was last here.”
ENGLAND DISCOVERS
INFANT PRODIGIES
LONDON. June 28 (Correspondence
of Associated Press).—Infant prodi
gies are being discovered in England
almost daily. Some connect this with
the psychology of war. One of the
youthful marvels is Pamela Bianco,
a 18-year-old girl artist, whose draw
ings were given the place of honor in
an exhibition at one of the principal
London galleries. Critics dealt with
them quite seriously, and said the
work was suggestive of Botticelli and
some of the other old masters. Pam
ela is an Italian girl who was born
in England, and never had taken any
drawing lessons.
Ronnie Routledge, four years old.
little more than a baby, whose pa
rents know nothing about music, has
enjoyed six months’ tuition on the vio
lin. At the Grimsby College of Violin
ists recently he outranked forty-three,
competitors, most of them in the twen
ties, and scored 119 points in a possi
ble 120. Professor Danton describes
him as a miracle.
Little Bobbie Day, aged seven, of
Brighton, son of a motor mechanic,
has wonderful powers of clairvoyance,
according to the Weekly Dispatch.
Blindfolded, he described a number
of articles. These included a treasury
note (giving its color, nombers and
writing on the back), the color and
texture of a piece of fabric he had
never seen, the correct answer in a
complicated sum in mental arithmetic
and figures written down at random.
After five minutes’ test he com
plained of feeling icy cold. “I just
see little pictures, and I just, say
them,” is Bobbie’s explanation.
