THE OPERA IN
NEW ORLEANS

There is no French opera in New
Orleans this season. The financial re-
verses Of recent years have discouraged
managers and silence reigns IN the
house around which a host Of inter
osting memories cluster. In a recent
number of THE Musical Courier" Mr..
Harry Brunswick Loeb. critic of "The
New Orleans Item" newspaper, pub
lshed an entertaining and instructive
historical sketch in which he summed
up some Of its more recent achieve
ments thus:
ut was on the French Opera House
stage, a. we have seen, that Adelina
Patti scored her early successes. and
there, according 20 a writer, her genius
received the stamp OF approval that
made it recognized throughout the
capitals of the old world IL was on
this same stage that Constantine and
Ricardo Martin. whom Boston and New
York later applauded, won their first
American plaudits. IL was after haV-
ing been acclaimed on this stage that
Nine. Bresser-G iaroli joined the Man
haitian and Chicago Opera House
forces, and that barytone Albers and
tenor Gilbert became members of the
Grau Opera Company. II was this
stage that introduced 10 America
Reyer's 'Sigurd' December "a, ls9D
and 'Salammbo' January 25, 1900;
Massenet's 'Herodiade' February -,
1922; 'Cendrillon' December %,
1902, 'Escarmonde' February -,
1922 and Don Quchotte' January q,
1922; Saint-Saens's Samson ct Dalila'
January 4. 1879; Giordano's Siberia
JANUARY 81, l906): Gounod's RENE de
Saba january y. 1899. Those were
only a few Of the many important
American premieres held in the old
lyric temple.
"In fact it was New Orleans that frst
introduced French and Italian opera
into America. It was New Orleans, too,
OF all American cities that first es-

the pronunciation Of the names OF nus

when the final syllable on does not

from Tachmannyl meaning neaN -
awkward. or Reb -ikof, from 'rebyo-

that OF the English short e. put agoGt
that of OF; for example, Alabien is

Hos. Soloyiev IS SOl-o-vyoh; but
Taneiev is Tan-eh-yeff. The ending

as it always does, in a man loIehahe

phasized. In a family name however
the emphasis changes from the ante

Russian composers are IN n different

come TO stay. An embarrassment not

created bv the fact that the Russian

REPORT OF MISS ROSALlE Ed
WARDS.

The year April, 1915, to April, 1916,
has been full Of service and oppOr-
tnnities for the Advancement Of the
Kingdom Doors have beer opened
for regular Sunday school activity.
Organizations relating to missionary
interest have given special service. A
universal interest has been manifested
in the Sunday school as an evangeliz
ing agency.
Besides the regular rally meetings,
the state, county and beat conventions
of Mississippi, | have been privileged
to give addresses at presbyterial and
synodical meetings At the WOmen's
Conference, at Vicksburg, the mission
airy superintendent was privileged
speaker. Some messages have been
given to monthly meetings of mission
airy societies. One splendid opportun-
itv that came my way was the ex-
change work with the Texas state
association for their state convention.
One week was devoted to the special
institute at Crystal Springs. where
the Teen Age" was my subject. With
the other workers | heard the interna-
tional tour party and the laymen's adj
dresses. During the year one special
privilege has been the visits to the
colleges and public schools, where
talks have been given with the pur-
pose of inspiring the young people to
Christian life and service. Several
professions of religion and calls ito
the mission field have been the results.
During the year l have travelled
10000 miles and delivered 343 adj
dresses. Fifty-two public schools have
been visited and eleven colleges. /
have been in two state conventions,
thirty-one county conventions and thir-
teen beat conventions | have con.
Quoted ninety-fve rally services and
spoken at five special meetings. Two
revivals have been partially assisted
and sixty Sunday schools have been
addressed, making some $4,000 in my
audiences and sixty-eight counties Wis
tied. During the year 1858. 20 has been
raised for the state association.

world has advanced to such an extent
that the demands are different and
these graded lessons will be found to
supply every demand. In the business
world one thinks of ones investments
and why not in the important business
Of character forming and soul train

worker consider that which is of the
greatest value to develop and increase
our business? The question today is
before us, of grading our roads. Why
do we grade them? 70 make it easier
TO get TO a certain point Why have
graded Sunday schools with graded
lessons? TO reach a certain point,
was her argument.
