who proposed 1t Co the music teachers,
and 1t was he who kept the matter a
secret until they themselves gave 1t
publicity. Throughout the season OPP
era goers have marveled at Hammer
STEMS splendid chorus, never dreaming
that 1t contained the flower of local
musical talent. OF course these anna
tours were not compelled to take those
parts where tights had to be worn
there were hired chorus people In that
service-but in all operas where large
choruses were necessary large num-
Der of the singers were students.
Mrs. Phillips-Jenkins, whose studio
sent more students to the opera chorus
than any other, speaks in the highest
terms of the benefit to her pupils de-
rived by their work in the opera. Now
as the season is closed her students are
disconsolate because they have to give
up this fascinating work. Among
those who have taken part in the cho-
rus throughout the season are Miss
Maude e. Merck, Miss Barbara Scha-
fer, Miss May Crosson, Miss Frances
Greenhalgh, Miss Deborah Milioiski and
Miss Florence Parker.
