them in spite OF themselves. In London
he had a more unbiased audience. OF
course. but now Paris. as well as Lon

again. 1t is exceedingly fortunate that
Wichita is able TO secure him, as he is
undoubtedly the most difficult man to Sc
secure in this country in musical lines.
Time and again efforts TO secure him for

success until this time.

The orchestra played there early in the

Kansas City managers tried 10 get the
orchestra with the soloists who are com

OK er the price, with the result that Kan
