was a fair attendance- con sidering the weather as it wew a perfect hurricane and prevented many from coming who would other wise have been on hand the baroness is a highly educated woman who can speak six languages she finds it difficult at limes to get the correct english word to express her meaning but she speaks quite distinctly although the high wind kept up such a tatoo en the metal roof ot the hall that some were un able to catch all her remarks the address was very instruc tive the baroness comes of an aristocratic russian family and she told harrowing tales ot the priva tions she and her husband under went in the red revolution until they escaped to england when the lower classes got control in her country they informed the nobility that they had drank of their blood for generations and now they the lowly were going to drink of theirs there is a good deal ot truth in what the reds said too although no one would say they were justified in carrying out such a bloodthirsty program as they did the baroness has a happy smile which wins her audiences quickly and she appeared in the costume ot a russian noblewoman and answer ed any questions asked by the audi ence all who braved the elements that night to hear the baroness felt well repaid for their effort miss fanny morgason sang a solo and encore during the course of the eveuing the school orchestra
