TO HAVE
 MUSICAL ATTRACTION

With an organization of forty peO- pie, the Opera Players will inaugurate a special season of summer musical stock productions at Parsons theater Hartford, on Monday, May 15, pre- senting a series of light operas and musical comedies at popular prices. The company, which is one of the most pretentious of it's kind ever or
 ganized, will be headed by Miss Flor
 ence Webber, the petite prima donna, who was a big favOrite in Hartford two years ago when musical stock
 f1Ourished at Parsons. The opening
 bill will be Arthur Hammerstein's com medy-opera, "The Firefy," made famous by Mme. Emma Trentini three years ago, and in which Miss Webber succeeded the Hammerstein prima donna when the opera had it's second season on the road. The book and lyrics were written by Otto Hauerbach and the music-twenty beautiful num- bers-was composed by Rudolph Friml. Six of the principals of the Opera Players have appeared in The Firefly" previously, so that a splendid performance is assured when the or ganization makes it's bow next Mon day night
 In addition to Miss Webber, others in the cast of principals will include: James Hornberger, tenor; Francis J. Boyle, basso 0ate of 'The Chocolate Soldier" company; Louis Mink. with Mme. Trentini in 'The Firefy'; Os- borne Clemson, baritone; Sylvia Thorne, contralto; Roger Gray, con- cdian; William Bruette, Jr., light com edian; Elsa Kitchener, soubrette; Madeleine Mitten, in small parts; Lil- lian Crosman, second prima donna, and others. The chorus will be made up of twenty pretty girls who can sing and dance, and ten male voices. Charles Sinclair, director of the Play CTS, has just come east from St. Louis, where he directed musical stock pro- duc1ons for two seasons. The man agement promises standard musical productions, superbly staged and cos tuned, all at popular prices. The scale for evenings will be seventy five cents to ten cents, and for the Wednesday and Saturday matinees ten to fifty cents. Seats are on sale for the first week and reservations for season tickets are also being made at the box office, without extra cost.

CAMERON

By and by he began to act con- strained too, and I had myself quite persuaded that he didn't love me any longer, before things finally came to a head and we had it out.
 When l told him what started me being queer, he just laughed. The only reason he hadn't put his arms about me was that he had machine grease on his hands. had gone into the house, so I didn't see him washing them in the garage. Of course I felt ashamed, and then he said the thing I want to tell you about.
 ""You see dear, there's always an explanation
 Before You Make Mountains Out of
 NIolehills.
 It's true. There always is some explanation when anyone does any thing unlike themselves. There's al ways some other side to the case that you don't think of. And if you could hear it before you begin feeling abused ad making mountains out of molehills a good many times, every thing could clear right up.
 We promised each other that we'd try to remember that whenever either of us felt himself getting hurt or ag- grieved, and that we'd ask for an ex- planaton instead of nursing griev- ance.
 And we have, and it's helped so many times.'
 It's an old theory of mine that we are all too prone to trust to appear ances and distrust people, though everyone knows that appearances are chronically deceitful.
 So l. recommend There's always an explanation" as an excellent thought, not only for married folks, but for all housemates, and in fact for everyone.
