Ottumwa tri-weekly courier. [volume] (Ottumwa, Iowa) 1903-1916, 1909-05-18

several possible reasons the singer does
not fairly represent herself, persons
hearing her, perhaps for the only time
in the season, will leave the house feel
ing that she is not worthy of her repu-
tation. They will express this opinion,
perhaps write it to the papers. These
things are inevitable. They must be
passed over, counted up in the balance
OF gain and loss. If the singer loves her
art they will not disturb her peace but
she must not expect that they will not
occur.
But once she has reached the pro-
hciency in her art which will enable her
to sing the great, noble roles of Wagner,
the beautiful music of Mozart and of
Verdi. great happiness is hers. 1t is
Joy to use her voice, a JOY to work
over the conception of a great composer
and to carry 1t out SO that the part
livcs in her.
Rewards Of Work
And after study and the mastery of
technique have made musical expression
second nature, there is the wonderful
thrill that comes when one is swayed by
the inspiration that comes with the ac-
tual performance. And most of all is
it happiness to feel that those who
care for you and for your art are
pleased.
A singer frequently has not time to
send answers to the kind letters that
are sent to her. The demands upon her
time and strength are so many; but she
cares for every bit of appreciation that
comes to her.
Home Life Greatest Thing in the World
find that the girl who desires to be-
come an opera singer often feels as if
the life of her profession were every
thing. But. to live 50 would be to live
from the work and excitement and ap-
plause of the opera house, there is home
and the real life. And the woman
whose heart is only in her success, how
ever great that may be, will not find
real happiness in this world.

this interfere any more than she can
help with her serenity, and not at all
with the best interests of her work.
The Artists Life
The public, and even the critics, are
not likely to know if she sings with a
cold or without rehearsal The public
does not understand these circum-
stances, which may place her in false
light; neither do they desire explana-
tons They go to the opera to be en-
tertained and to accept what is given
them as it stands. If for some one of

An Effective Costume

An EU6ctlVo CoSGum0
Because one is stout and has reached
the happy and kindly middle distance ii
life, it is not necessary to deny oneself
the small though insistent fads of fash.
ion The. suspender waist and the un.
der-blouse or guinpe, both rather friyo-
lous details of the costume, may be
adapted to the use of the woman who
is fair and forty, if she will only bear
in mind the idea of dignity.
The waist shown presents the bretelle
feature embodied in the over blouse
that is, however, given distinctive
touch by the use of the small vest
pieces at the front, which should have
small fancy buttons BY way of decora-
ton for the simulated or actual closing
The same buttons, with silk cord OF
cotton cable cord covered with the waist
material, trim the slashed opening
through which the lace under blouse is
visible at the shoulders
The skirt has two side-plaits at each
side of the centre-front, forming what
is known as an inverted double box
plat, and the same arrangement is re-
peated at the centre back; the skirt has
nine cores, and flares snartly about the
feet. Silk or satin will. develop nicely
by this design, though, perhaps, wooden
goods will be even better. Lansdowne
is an especially suitable material, or

cross. This is a very simple way Of

most effective stitches in lace-making.

THH ROOSEVELT
ADMINISTRATION

While the place which Mr.. Roosa-
vet is'to occupy IA history mus. be
left to the sitting of processes OF
time. The literary Digest presents
an interesting resume Of the achiev-
ments OF the last administration
showing the essential basis upon
which the final estimate must rest.
1t will not be time wastdi to
glance hurriedly at the list.
Attention Is called In the first
place to what Mr.. Roosevelt has
done toward the conservation of the
natural resources, and special en-
phas is Is put upon two very impor-
tant measures-the national irriga-
ton act and the extension OF forest
reserves. IL Is, of courle, well
known that the former president was
friendly toward both measures, and
hill active championship was also
gwen to the Improvement OF Sho
national waterways.
On the line OF Industrial legisla-
Ton, the establishment OF a depart
ment OF commerce and labor Is in
cluded among the attalnments which
were sought by Mr.. Roosevelt and
he is also credited with having Civ
en- the executive support, as we'll AS
the official signature, to the Hep
burn rate act, the employers liabI-
ny act, the iafety appliance act, the
regulation Of hours for railway en-
ployes, the pure food law and the
measure for the inspection OF pack
ing houses.
In unfolding the majesty OF the
law, the bold initiative of M, Roo-e
yelt 3 shown by the number of pros
ecutions which were made during ois
tenure of office in the conviction Of
pubic land thieves and OF postcf.
fee graf.er5, in the fines imposed
upon railroad rebaters, and partic-
ular stress b also laid upon the ia
nous Northern Securities care. which
furnished one OF the greatest scau-
da's Of the day.
The tour Of the American battle
ship feet around the globe IL also
celebrated among the achievements
of the Roosevelt administration
In like manner the policy Of in
creaaing the size and strength Of
.he navy and also the effort to b:i1g
the state militia INTO coordination
with the army are cited to show
what was done for :he national de-
tense.
With respect to foreign relations,
the summary includes the acquisi-
ton of the canal strip, the develop
menS OF civil government in the
Philippines, the second intervention
In Cuba, the adjustment OF trade
relations with our colonial Deepen
denotes, the reorganization OF thc
finances Of Santo Domingo, the Get
t'ement OF the Alaskan boundary
dispute, the establishment OF sympa-
thet.c relations with the South Amer
lean republics and the Washington
Toxic agreement negotiated by Sec
rotary Root.
Among the achievements OF the I'd
min stratlon which are credited TO
the personal account OF Mr.. Roosc-
velt are the treaty OF Portsmouth
between japan and Russia, and the
settlement Of the coal strike OF 1902
by the presidents Intervention.
From this inventory OF the R0ose-
welt administration tn strenuous
character OF the past ceveu years Is
we'll attested; and without tn b.
uti1g any undue credit to the man
who occupied the White House much
OF the legislative output OF this pc
Rod bears the distinct impress Of
the Roosevelt stamp.
