WHAT P€OPL€ AR€ DOING Dear Sally: '-pHE Speakeasy didn't open this week, so I have no excitement for you. Too bad a bright spot like that should have had so short a. life. I wrote you some time ago with how much interest people were look­ ing forward to the concert to be given at the Sunset Club by the Casadesus Ensemble, Society of An­ cient Instruments, organized in Paris in the year 1901. Sure enough, on Tuesday evening an audience that taxed the capacity of the club looked and listened with keen in­ terest to this wonderful music. The Seattle Society of Ancient Dames was also present, with an occasional husband, or elder daughter, who might be studying music, and every­ one showed their enchantment of the delicate tinkle-tinkle effects produced by these marvelously gift­ ed artists on their archaic instru­ ments. In the audience we saw the appre­ ciative faces of Mrs. Van Ogle and Mrs. Myron Jacobson, and we won­ dered if they would really exchange their rich toned pianofortes for the dainty and sensitive harpischord, with its four and one-half octaves, two banks of keys, and six pedals. The viole d'amour particularly held my interest, as it had fourteen strings in seven rows, and an im­ possible number of keys. I should think it would all have been very confusing, but it was beautifully played by Henri, the older. I sim­ ply won't attempt to repeat the sur­ name.
