Helen Stanley, is the leading repre-
sentative of the modern French
school. At the age Of 9 he played
for Ysaye and the latter was moved
to tears. He took the boy in his
arms and said: Some day you will
be master OF us all" Thibaud plays
upon a rare Stradivarious violin,
one the property OF Ballot. Critics
are unanimous in their verdict that
"he is an incompatible master. one
OF the most distinguished opponents
of the Frech style of violin playing.
This will be Thibaud's only appear
ance in Nebraska this season. He
comes direct to Omaha from con-
cert in New York city and returns

Mr.. Finck, in the New York Eve
ming Post, says that great as is the
genius of Campanini, his greatest
stroke OF genius is his recent action
in securing as his first conductor
Gieorgio Polacco. He gives it as
his opinion that Polacco even ex-
GELS Toscanini in his sympathic read
ings OF the older Italian operas, of
which the Barber of Seville" IS one,
and in the orchestral details of which
he has revealed refined details
slurred over by his predecessors. In
the Barber of Seville in the Les
son. Scene" Galli-Curci does almost
a concert program. She sings var
ious stunt" songs from other operas
(Aria from "Dinorah" or "Lucia")
and then sings Last Rose of Sum
mer,' Home Sweet Home and
Annie Laurie" Many people like
this opera for this reason that she
does widely varied group of songs
alone, playing her own accompani-
ment for some of them.

TO MARRIED REGISTRANTS
Provost Marshal General Crowder Issues
Instructions.

The following bulletin that is being
sent to the local exemption boards is of
vital interest to the registrants who are
now making up their questionnaires and
should be followed by those persons with
great deal of care:
Relative to the classification Of mar
ried registrants, the attention Of local
boards is called to war department tele-
gram of Dec 30, 1917, as follows:
ITO resolve doubt expressed by local
boards as 10 the classification OF regis
trants the following is published in ex-
PLANTATION Of the regulations
First. b.division a. class is the
residuary class for registrants whose
wives or children are mainly dependent
upon them for support and this applies
to widower whose own children are
mainly dependent upon him for support.
Second If registrant has both a
wife and child, but there are such other
sources Of support available that the re-
moyal of the registrant will not deprive
the dependents of reasonably adequate
support, he is to be placed in subdivision
"a Of class 2.
Third. II a registrant has a wife
but no children and there are such other
sources of support available that the re-
moval of the registrant will not deprive
the wife Of reasonably adequate support
he goes in class | as not being included
in any other division in the schedule.
Fourth. Many boards seem to be in
doubt as TO what to do when it appears
that the soldiers pay and war risk al
lowances will provide an adequate sup
port. See rule j, page "a, and the last
paragraph Of section II. Reasonably ade
duate support cannot be determined by a
rule of thumb but must be determined
with sense and sympathy in the facts OF
| each individual case What would be
adequate support in one locality or in
one set of circumstances might not be
adequate support in another, The ques
ton Of adequate support must be deter
mined by the boards after careful con
sideration of the interests of the de
pendents on the one hand and of the
government on the other and with th'
| thought always In mind that the present
classification scheme is designed to rais'
our armies with a minimum of hardship
and suffering to those who are to be left
at home. Crowder.'
This telegram is still in effect.
| This Office holds that if classification
under the third paragraph is considered
possible earnings of the wife cannot b
taken into consideration, as this is spe
officially provided for under class 2.B.
