ing roles In Boris Gondounoff." II
Paul Althouse had stood still then. his
name and fame would have gone echo

of the great creative singers OF grand
opera But he has never stood still
and likely never will. for. since his ad
vent In opera, he has created three i'm

When the choir Jays were over, Ait

years later finds him one of the as.

Althouse had dreams of being an opera
singer. but as "a sort of anchor To the
windward he became a chemist, giving
as his reason that If he failed as a
singer he still could make comfort

one year as chemist satisfied the
youth that he had to some extent mas

opera The decision once made the
youngster left for the big city, and In
day or so he was enrolled with Oscar

HOOVER URGES FARMERS
RAISE THREE TIMES
MORE HOGS THAN IN 1917

Philadelphia, Oct. 1.-The necessity oil
encouraging the farmers to raise three
times as many hogs this year as they
did last year was emphasized by her
bert Hoover in addressing a food sup
ply conference here. He said:
1--WE are sending abroad more hoe
products at the present time than we
produce. Three times as much gram
and meat is being exported now than
was the case before the war. and the
demand from our allies is increasing
our supply Of grains is the lowest In
our history. If some disaster had put
the harvest back two and a half months
this year, this country would have
starved"
AS the war grows older the necessity
for self-denial will be more severe and
more difficult, Mr.. Hoover said He
believed, however, the country would
not come to food cards and tickets.
The war will be paid for. Mr.. Hoover
asserted out of the savings of the peo
pie, not by the railroads and great
corporations.
