Prologue.
Forest dreams and forest folk
Wander thro' the trees tonight.
Coming from the distant hills,
To make moments holiday.
Pan hath called them from their
haunts
To frolic for a rose full blown.
A fairy from the city's rim.
Who longs for woodland creatures
love,
Who fain would take to her dear
town -.
The secret of the quiet deeps.
Come they from the emerald shades,
Dryads, spirits, creatures. birds,
Dancing on their joyous way
To greet the fairies of the dawn.
Pan comes too, from distant glades
With his pipes clear-toned and gay
Sounding thro' the mystic wood,
Memories of far off days.
A hunter with his blaring horn
Threatens panic, and dismay,
Till Nymph of rare delight
Lures him to fairer mind.
Joy at last comes walking by,
Guardians Of the peaceful wood,
Wilt thou listen while we tell,
The story Of the children's rosea

The Chicago Grand Opera COM
pany engagement in Omaha will be
an event. Since Omaha is undoubt-
eddy too small and not sufficiently
rich and musical to support an opera
company of its own, the very next
best thing is to have a season of
opera given by the Chicago COM
pany. This will bring a galaxy of
stars to Omaha, and give US the op-
portunity of hearing grand opera on
a scale which it is usually neces-
sary to 60 to either Chicago or
New York City to obtain.
IF we could hear worthwhile
things, and have other wonderful
things come to Omaha, it is up to
the citizens of the community to sup
port those that do come in such way
as to make it pay. The box Office is
the pulse of the public in any part
of the country, and if the pulse OF
Omaha beats high for artistic and
aesthetic productions, which are at
the summit of their kind, those are
the things which we will get. But
If our pulse beats slow and re-
spends with financial vigor to cheap
and unaesthetic attractions, what
manager is going to 60 ont of his
way to lose money upon anything
else? It is hoped that the guaran-
tee for the appearances Of this COM
pany will seen be raised. The mu-
steal success of these productions is
assured: let us make them finan-
cially successful as we'll.

What Opera Will
Mean to Music
I Lovers Here
Omaha Is to Have Grand
Opera Next Season for
Two Days.
By HENRIETTA M. REEFS

1t is great good news to the music
lovers of Omaha. that the Chicago
Grand Opera company will visit US
IN October. The Chicago Grand
Opera company is one OF the really
big grand opera companies of the
country, and we are assured of fine
productions with beautiful scenery,
large chorus, an adequate orches-
ira, and recognized stars of song in
leading roles, because all of these
things are a part of this company.
1t is also interesting that IL trump
cters and ballet and premiere dan
seuse will take part in. the produc-
ton Of Aida which opera will be
given the second evening. Grand
opera is not alone music, it is a
great scenic spectacle, and aida"
which was written by Verdi for the
khedive of Egypt at the opening of
the Suez canal, is an opera in which
the scenic effects and a great num-
Der of people in the chorus are in
teresting parts.
The two operas which are to be
given in Omaha are operas of rec
ognized merit, operas which have
proved their appeal both to the box
Office and TO the lovers of the aes-
thetic in the realm of sound. ia
Boheme" is considered by many an
even greater masterpiece from the
pen of Puccini than his Madame
Butterfly" and the cast will include
many well known singers! Aida"
will give Omaha an opportunity to
hear Rosa Raisa, the dramatic So
prano of the company, who made
such q sensational success both in
Chicago and New York. The great
numbers of the company will add
unusual luster. and Omaha will un-
doubtedly see a gorgeous produc-
tion OF gorgeous opera.
I The singers scheduled to take part
in the Omaha productions are Alma
Gluck, Rosa Raisa, Sophie Braslau.
George Baklanoff, Alessandro Bonci,
Alessandro Dolci, Vittorio Ari-
mondi and others. Marinuzzi. we'll
known bot as musician and COM
poser, is the principal conductor of
the company this season. and he will
be assisted by Louis Hasselmans,

REDUCE TYPHOID
Z WITH SANITATION
Petersburg and Chesterfield Commun-
ity Demonstrate What May BE
Done.

Figures Just announced by the state
board of health prove conciusively
that typhoid fever and others OF the
filth-borne diseases may be reduced
through the application OF simple SAN
tary rules. The figures are based on
a report submitted by DR.. Warren r.
Draper. passed assistant surgeon,
United States Public Health service,
who, In 1917. engaged In sanitary
work In the extra cantonment zone OF
Camp Lee.
On July I, 1917. there were 1884
insanitary privies In Petersburg. Dur
ing 1916 sixty three cases OF typhoid
fever. with seven deaths from the
same disease. developed in that city.
whose population Mt that time was
estimated at $4,000. From January
1. 1917. until December 81. 1918. il
was estimated that the population in
creased $4,000.
AS soon Us the true significance OF
tho insanitary toilets was made known.
the Petersburg authorities converted
them into sanitary places. The re-
suit was that from January /. 1917.
until December 81. 1918, Petersburg
developed only forty-one cases, with
seven deaths from typhoid.
Similar results were accomplished
In EtIlckS, a Cnesterneld county COM
munity, with a population of about
1890. The place Is entirely unsew
cred. During August. September and
October. 1917. the public health nurse
on duty there found sixteen cases OF
typhoid. though 1t was conservatively
estimated that twenty-five cases oc-
CURED during the year. with four
dee tbs reported. DR.. Draper secured
the cooperation OF the residents in
Novem Der. with the result that SAM
tary privies, of the concrete type. were
installed In place of the prevailing in
safTfffssf.s' eufls.s- fGsis.s gvss was esrr-
pleted In July. 1915. when 2s6 homes
were equipped with the necessary san
itary arrangements. This was practi-
cally 100 per cent accomplishment
The result was that from January 1 :.
1917. until December 81. 1918. only
one case of typhoid appeared in Eft
tricks.
Briefly. this Is tho work which the
state health department Is now un-
dertaking in all parts OF Virginia.

WATCHFUL CARE IN
TRAVELLERS AID WORK

Few people in Richmond realize
the magnitude Of the travellers aid
work now being done In this city by
the War Camp Community service in
cooperation with the Travellers Aid
society. Nor should 1t be understood
that the efforts OF the two organiza-
tons are confined strictly to the mere
assisting OF wayfarers who pass from
one station to another, or who stop
in this city for only a few hours on
their Journeys. The outstanding fea-
ture of the work is its tireiess en-
deavor TO keep young people out OF
TEN ptation and to prevent the moral
lapses (which too frequently occur
among the inexperienced and the un-
sophisticated when they lack the
guidance OF older heads.
During the month Of January"
says a recent report OF Miss Earle L.
Reck. who has charge OF the work
for the War Camp Community service,
our records show that 1880 persons
received assistance. but 1t was i'm
possible to keep y record OF all the
men in uniform who were assisted in
dividually and in groups. Most OF
them were going home. and it kept
one worker busy giving them accurate
inform alton about trains at both sta
Tons. but In many cases this aid saved
the boys q long wait in this city. or
another en- route
The report mentions many cases
where young girls were rescued from
serious danger or were set in The
straight and narrow path" after they
had been induced to turn aside Here
Is typical case pictured in the exact
words OF Miss Reck:
Sometimes travellers aid work is
done on the street A letter wag re-
ce!ved from a travellers aid in the
western part of the state, asking our
workers to look out for fifteen
year old girl. an orphan. who was
wandering about the country and
could not be controlled by her friends
She did not come in at the stations
and three weeks later the worker
recognized her on street car by a
peculiar scar on her hand. The work
er followed the girl home and found
her keeping house for two elderly
men who claimed to be her relatives,
but were often away two or three
days at a time. leaving the girl on her
own resources. She refused to talk at
first. but the worker visited her often
and at last won her confidence She
told of an aunt in Baltimore, but did
not know her street number. Through
the travellers aid in that city the wo-
man was quickly located and came
after the girl and placed her in 8
school where We hope she will grow
into happy. useful womanhood"
Many Of the other cases mentioned.
though furnishing reading Of an un-
pleasant sort, reveal the fact that
day and night In this and other vir-
ginia cities there is a crying need
for Just such watchful work as the
agents of the War Camp Community
service and the Travellers Aid society
are doing.
