universal. II combines comedy, trag-
edy, spectacular settings, and allur-

About Washington's
Own Opera Company.

The Washington Opera Company.
which il presenting Carmen" at the
Shubert-Gsrrick Theater this week. is
a step in the right direction in thing 5
musical in America. The time has
come when grand opera must be on a
different basis, both for the sake of
the musicians and of the public. 1t
is a matter OF absolute impossibility
for the two great established COM
panies, the Metropolitan and the Chi
cago, to meet the needs of the entire
population OF our great country. The
vast populace is being deprived OF
any good music, except the "canned d
variety" The fortunate minority who
have the price of trip-1o New York
and 81 plus war tax for a seat in the
Metropolitan are able to feed their
souls with the exotic straiDs of high
priced singers, while the mass of the
people must be content with the NOV =
ing picture orchestra or the victrola
record. These are fine in themselves,
but not enough.
There are at least 900 cities in
America which could support grand
opera organizations il linked up with
civic development according to the
plan which has met with such phe-
nomenal success in Washington.
InOruS, OrcneStTd, dn0 principals have
been assembled by Mr.. Albion from
the community. Under the skillful
and intensive training OF the direc-
tors of the company, this group Of
musicians has achieved u standard
which places them in the ranks of the
best professionals.
1t is the, aim OF the Washinaton
Opera Company to bring help 10
young artists by offering them sct-
ting in which they may be heard and
may perfect their art. and at the same
time bring the great music OF the
world into the homes Of the com
munity
Additional centers should be opened
m throughout the country. but il is
for the Capital to lead In this splendid
work.
The citizens OF Washington should
get vigorously behind this work and
make Il possible for music to become
a part of the life of every American
boy and girl. They can do this and
help the young artists Of the nation
while giving themselves the rare
pleasure of attending a splendid per-
tormance OF the most popular of all
the grand operas, Bizet's Carmen"

Big Salaries for
Beauties in the Chorus.

In the good old days, when summer
shows on Broadway were as rare ps
robins In winter, and chorus girls
at $40 per week were. overpald, pro-
ducers OF spectacles had little trouble
In selecting ladies for the ensemble
To use the everyday expression.
"the woods were full OF them" Now
with almost every other theater In
New York filled with "hit." the
Theatrical producer is hard pressed TO
nnd enough pretty girls to go round.
such at least Is the experience or
Herman Ttmberg, producer and
author OF his latest musical outburst
Tick Tack Toe" which will be pre-
sented at Polls Theater tonight.
When the first call for reherssls went
out, over 200 notices were sent out II
as many young ladies eligible for
the chorus. Assembling a particular
type OF girl for a musical production
Is by no means an easy task, but II
Is a everyday routine in the life of
a stage director compared with the
difficulty confronting this individual
In picking real beauties, who are
necessary. nowadays at least, for the
success of any big Broadway show,
IL is still true OF the present-day
beauty that her accomplishments are
confined largely to her own personal
good looks. She must be graceful
but she need not dance, and her sing
ing voice is among those present and
Is paid accordingly.
Where the beauty Of ten years ago
drew salary OF $50, she now de-
mands and gets without a bubble or
question three times that amount
Ambition too, has crept into the
ranks of these beauties and salary is
not always the thing that satisfies.
They must be given Lines" and posi-
tions in tho ensembles and in the
finales.
Bringing the beauties into prox-
Unity to the footlights, so that they
may establish an entente cordialc
with the FIRST row is an easy matter
for the manager, because no producer
wishes to hide his light beneath a
bushel. But it is obvious that he
cannot accommodate every young
lady by giving her lines. thus making
her an bonest-to-goodness actress.
