CALLI-CURCI IS
FESTIVAL STAR
Noted Soprano Coming to Angus
tana May 30 as Big Attrae-
-. ton at Annual Event
1 LARGE ORCHESTRA ALSO
Metropolitan Quartet to Sing In
Early Fall, Direction Musi-
cal Association.

Amelita CALI Curci, the greatest
soprano on the concert platform
today, and who appeared in recital
here two years ago, much TO the
delight of an immense audience,
will sing in the city again, coming
on the evening of May 30 to Angus
tana gymnasium under the direc-
ton of the Tri-City Musical asso-
citation.
This decision was reached at a
meeting of the board of directors
held Saturday night at the New
Harper.
The coming of CALI Curci is to
be the big attraction in the annual
May festival sponsored by the as
sociation and as an added feature
there probably will be one of the
big orchestras of the country that
will present a program.
The board also decided to bring
the popular Metropolitan quartet,
consisting of Frances Aida, sa-
prano; Caroline Lazarri. contralto;
Martinelli, tenor, and DeLucca,
bass. the company to appear the
third week in October. This will
undoubtedly be the big treat of the
fall season and should be a strong
drawing card as each of the mem
bers of the quartet is a world
known artist
CALI Curci appeared in Rock Is
land in the spring of 1917 and at
that time drew a record concert
crowd for the three cities and gave
full memory in the minds of every
one who heard her.
Last year. because of war con-
ditions no May festival was held
and the Tri-City Musical assOcia-
ton practically suspended actlVl-
ties. However, with war activities
removed the association has again
taken up musical work in the three
cities and is promising great
things.
Mcdowell Memorial Delegates.
Miss Katherine Gest and Mrs. J.
]. Dorgan, president Of the asso-
citation, was selected as delegates
to the Mcdowell memorial meet
ing at Peterboro, n. H., in June,
at which time the National Fedora
ton of Musical Clubs will meet in
the home of the famous American
composer Mrs. William H. Guth-
RE and Miss Edna Mitchell of Mo-
line were named alternates.
Thor Norberg of Moline was
chosen treasurer of the association,
succeeding ]. V. Bergquist. who re-
signed upon his removal to Mime
apolis.

OVERLOOKING A
SAVING ON BILL
Five Per Cent Discount Evidently
Does Not Appear Good to
Water Consumers.
LESS THAN HALF PAID UP
Settlement Must Be Made By We'd
nesday in Order to Profit,
City Clerk Says.

Evidently a per cent discount
does not look good to about so per
cent of water consumers in Rock
Island
With only two days left in which
to pay their bills for the quarter
ending Feb. l with the 5 per cent
discount, less than one-half OF the
bills have been paid.
Perhaps they have overlooked
their bills" Martin Rudgren, COM
missioner of accounts and finances,
said today. Five per cent of a
bill is not to be sighted and unless
the payment is made before
o'clock Wednesday evening when
we close for the day, the full
amount charged on the bills will
have to be paid by the consumers.
Looks For Rush.
Il doubt if they desire to forfeit
the discount and l am advertising
the fact in the notices today that
the settlement must be made by
Wednesday if the discount is to be
saved. We look for a rush tomor-
row and Wednesday. The min
imum bills are only $40 for the
quarter, which if paid before Wed
nesday means $199. a saving of IL
cents. But in the case of the
larger consumer the sum saved by
prompt payment means much
more"
