PERA managers are looking
for voices, There has never
been a time in the history

been time in the history
of grand opera when Il voice,
plus essential accessories. had to go
begging. A properly trained and Gull
tiyated voice is not as eyanescent as
physical beauty or some other gifts or
attainments; consequently when such
IA voice is found 1t stays indefinitely,
and this makes it the more difficult
for a new voice to get a place in the
musical world.
Nevertheless there comes a time
when the nightingales of the highest
musical profession quit. The going
out of one such creates demand, and
then managers begin to look around.
There are many Corners, but few stay
ers. Within the last two years some
of the noted stars of song have either
retired or announced an intention to
retire in the near future.
Under the most favorable conditions
Ii requires at least four years for a
student to attain anything like the
necessary proficiency to get to the
stepping stone of success. Even after
the voice is correctly posed to use a
term which musicians will understand.
and after the drudgery of attaining the
poiut where the student can attempt
a difficult air, the toll for repertory
begins, and that is quite another
branch of the profession. When the
student seeks an engagement he or
she must have a number of operas on
the tip of the tongue. The minimum is
a half dozen. Any musician will, no
matter how marvellous the musicians.
career has been, tell the student that
there is no opera that can be mastered
without great effort.
Newly discovered talen. in this
country is engaged by managers for
one season with the understanding
that if successful the singer must go
abroad for study. That means years
of grind There is no other word that
will explain it. 1t ought to be under

Engaged in an apparently hope
less struggle to make both ends
meet, the Ways and Means Com
mittee Of the House of Repre-
sentatives is discussing the ad-
visibility of adding war taxes to
the internal revenue laws. The
deficit for the fiscal year is mount
ing rapidly and will expand from
the present SSO,00O,0OO to $3.50,
100000, or more, by the end Of the
fiscal year. The DINGHY law has
failed dismally as revenue pro-
ducer, and the hope of increase
from a new tariff law is not only
impossible, but there is the certain
prospect there will be falling of
in customs receipts as the result OF
the scheduled readiustment of du-
ties.
Extravaganza and indifference
are the twin sins for whose COM
mission the Republicans must pay
the penalty Of restoring war taxes
in time Of peace. It is a bitter
dose. A duty on coffee and a duty
on tea would be to pattern after
the English system of raising
money on articles not produced in
the country. Their imposition
would be to represent an inde-
fensible mixture of the diametri-
cally opposite English and Amer
ican systems. 1t is woeful COM
ment on the protection system,
which has been strained to the
cracking point for the last twelve
years and is still unable to both
protect and raise revenue at the
same time.
With the cost of living at home

ing it's heralded return and still
out of sight, it is doubtfal whether

What Has Broken Loose in the
CD. Office?

Something must have slipped in
the GID. editorial rooms, for not
otherwise can we account for the
editorial in the Sunday issue pro-
testing against the disposition Of
the organs of the trusts to confuse
the'night riders of Kentucky with
those of Tennessee. AS the CD.
points out they are in no respect
alike, for the Tennessee riders be-
came outlaws to overthrow law
and order, " hile the men of Ken
lucky were meeting intrenched
yillainy and lawlessness by illegal
force, as it was either that or
starvation and the confiscation of
their land. Nearly two years ago
this paper hailed the Kentucky
night riders as patriots who were
displaying the old American spirit
of resistance to tyranny and
wrong, and that while they might
be outlaws according to the terms
of plutocracy's laws, so likewise
were outlaws that band of patriots
who threw the tea overheard in
Boston harbor. I believe that /
said then that the chief difference
in the Boston patriots and those
of Kentucky was that the latter
had ten times the provocation OF
the former, and had tolerated
wrong much longer-due, doubt-
less, to a loss of some of that no.
BILE love of liberty which was the
splendid spirit of the forefathers.
But the curious thing is that a
defense of the Kentucky patriots
should get into the CD, of all
papers, the chief representative Of
a petrifed conservatism, and Of a
partisanship so extreme as to be
absurd and puerile. To print col
umns Of partisan drivel, in which
all facts were made to fit a stan
dard of arbitrary party afdliatlon,
with other columns in which the
sole effort of the writer was to
avoid saying anything on any live
topic that would interest anybody,
to avoid expressing any opinion
of any kind on any vital question,
save only the subscription to the
creed which declares the divine
inspiration and infallible rectitude
Of all things Republican, and con-
varsely, the original sin and pure
cussedness of everything Demo-
cratic, seems to have been the
whole editorial mission of the
GID. And then this night rider
editorial is sprung. ! couldn't
have been more surprised had
some people l know told the truth.
y %x~
Where the GID. falls short Is in
its failure to cite the cause. What
forced these law respecting, hon
est, Industrious and good citizens
to turn outlaws in order to save
their homes from the plunderer
and their families from starvation?
Why the villainous and unjust
system Of government, of privilege
and pillage. fostered by the Re-
publican party and supported by

Osteopathic Catechism.

tFrom Osteopathic Healthy
NATURES EFFORT is TOWARD THE
NORMAL.
Q. If drugs are not used, what
agency does osteopathy employ
to overcome disease?
A. The only agency thatis ever
operative under any treatment
Vital Force, Natures own power
of repair, NATURES ceaseless effort
to restore and maintain the nor
NAL, the inherent resources of our
bodies for upbuilding and recuper-
alton. The pont at issue is
whether drug or osteopathic prac-
tice is best able to cooperate with
the body to promote this end.
Q. How does the osteopathic
physician control vital forces SO as
to restore health?
A. a. By scientific manipula-
tions skillfully applied upon the
basis of a comprehensive knowl-
edge of the normal human anato-
my, restoring the body to normal
adjustment when it's parts have
become deranged.
(2) By scientific manipulations
skillfully applied in accordance
with the principles of advanced
physiology, controlling both nerve
force and blood supply, thereby
holding the keys of nutrition for
the system.
81 By correcting mental at
titude, by scientific dietetics,
rational habit and sanitary envi-
ronment, which may or may not
be needed in given cases as auxil-
ary treatments.
az By allowing Nature time to
establish re-adjustment, to restore
coordination of function, to re-
new the harmonious interaction of
the mind and the tissues, organs
and systems. Thus it is Nature,
the Great Physician, which ulti-
mately works the cure. The os-
teopathist is Natures chief as
sistant.
