"It was lovely." This was the verdict of a wounded soldier after the fourth matinée of the Women's Tribute festival at Covent Garden yesterday.

Mr. H. B. Irving as the veteran in [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle]]'s one-act play, "[[A Story of Waterloo]]," gave a finished portrait of the old soldier whose lot is the concern of the Women's Tribute Council. No other play could have been so appropriate.

Mr. Gerald du Maurier and Miss Hilda Moore were very amusing in "The Popular Novelist," by D. C. Calthrop. Sir Francis Piggott's pretty musical entertainment, "London Voices," was given with spirit and a right regard for the beautiful general picture of a London street one hundred years ago.
