Singing.
Ethel Hopkins looked as pretty as a picture and was all dolled up in the latest style of dress. Miss Hopkins can sing and she strikes her high notes with culture and rare skill, but it seems unusual to hear a woman jump from grand opera into a popular song of the day. It's versatile and all that, but Miss Hopkins' voice doesn't seem to be built and trained for that style. If she must have a topical song she could do herself more justice by getting one of a more sentimental, quieter refrain than the one she now uses. Miss Hopkins, on looks and voice, scored a most favorable impression.
