NINE. GALLI.CURCl BELIEVES IN
GETTING PLENTY OF SLEEP

If the wonderful voice of Nine.
Amelita Galli-Curci, who will be
heard in Toledo at the COLISEUM on
May 26th, hai not sung it's way into
the hearts of the nation, her wonder
full smile would have easily accom-
plished this: In repose the features
of the singer are not unusual. but the
moment she smiles, her entire express
sion is changed. 1t is dazzling
smile. lighting up the large dark eX-
pressive eyes and animating her
whole face.
There is IA musical quality in the
speaking voice of Nine. CALI Curci
that is no less charming than her
singing voice. 1t is full of unexpected
little cadences and infections and
marked ever SO slightly with cap
tivating bit of accent, so that one
cares not if the artist speaks or sings,
so long as one may listen.
MY rest" says Nine. CALI Curci,
II must have. If l am to sing, must
sleep. l cannot do one without the
other; so l never let anything inter-
fere with that rest
A record breaking audience will
greet Cali Curci in Toledo, when she
sings there as the closing number OF
the Civic Music League Series, on
May 2Gth.

Wet weather Is very destructive to

tires as being made only Of rubber,

A partly worn tire IL long ways
