Hobbies

Hobbies.

Relaxations Madam Lehmann has in plenty, the cinema proving one of her greatest aids in setting aside momentarily the strain of a busy life. Photography Is another hobby. "During my tours." she said. "I photograph everything in sight . . . in Australia I was very pleased with several studies of aboriginals. In this interesting country With its ever changing scenic wonders I bad many opportunities to try my skill with a camera." Any other spare time at her disposal is devoted to writing. Already she has bad two hooks published. While at school she compiled a delightful volume of poems and more recently, an autobiography "On wings of Song." Her Australian tour was such a success, that Madam has decided to preserve a fitting record in book form entitled "Neath the Southern Cross."

It is much to the credit of Madam Lotte Lehmann that, though she is the heroine of a hundred and one noted concert and opera performances, though the greatest of her contemporaries bow down before her artistry, that she has remained unspoiled by her fame.
