mirers. Her voice is one of magnificent
power and she has made steady prog

Dohnanyi, in his unohtrusive way, out
strips in distinction many more showy

their fourishes. Seldom is this con-

Interpretation. 1t was playing of the
highest caliber, a display Of the pure st

The other numbers on the program
were Smetana's Overture to "The
Bartered Bride" and Tschaikowsky's q

Premier of Canada
Asks Closer Amity
AS Hope of World
Good of Civilization for
Century Depends on Har-
mony of Anglo-Saxons,
He Tells Rotary Members

OTTAWA, April 1O.-The wisdom of
creating spirit Of conciliation" be-
tween the people of Canada and the
United States, thereby strengthening
the friendship of the English speaking
peoples, was emphasized by Arthur
Meighen, Prime Minister of Canada, in
an address before the international
Rotary Convention, which closed here
late last night
"This organization" he said, "has a
part to play in that great work. 1t is
commonplace, yet vital and essential, to
the good Of the world for the next
century depends on the amity and con-
cord of the Anglo-Saxon race more
than on any other single thing.
Prime Minister continued, when civil
lied people cling with eagerness
around the thought to save civiliza-
tion that time has now come. If, which
God forbid, anything ever arose to de-
stroy the friendly relations that now
exist between the two great English
speaking nations, then indeed the fu-
ture Of civilization is black beyond the
each country have work to perform
in their own country--to stay extreme
demands of one country to the other"
Premier Meighen declared he did not
altogether support the idea that the
United States and Great Britain some
day should dominate the world Neither
domination nor aggrandizemcnt Of
power, he said, was t~1e right idea. He
was cheered when he said the aggran-
dizement of service was the correct
ideal.
"The United States" the Premier
concluded "is standing in, solitude, but
in dignity, somewhere within the pre-
cincts Of the League Of Nations.
Whether or not the United States
should join the League of Nations and
whether or not the league should de-
yelop and justify the great hopes
placed in it, Canada is a member of

then was sung. DR.. Weizmann, speak

By Iiarriette UnderhilI

Following our custom we spent yes

but the results were not so satisfac-

the Rivoli and an impossible one at
the Capitol. Only S. L. Rothafel

left room for one Of those delightful
Edgar comedies. In this one he is a
detective, and he detects Ole, his
uncle's farmland, who, he thinks, is
going to murder Clara, the hand

presented the feature, "What Hap
pened to Rosa" Well, whatever hap
pened to Rosa was not circumstance

Normand, one of the most charming

the heroine, but it is a sad, sad affair.

girl who seems to have just little
less intelligence than moran. While
selling stockings in a department store
she meets a handsome young doctor
and fancies that he is the dark

series of coal holes, automobile acci-
dents, boys clothes, ducks in the river
and endless chances for sweet little
Mabel to act totally unlike sweet little
Mabel. 1t doesn't last so very long
however, and the handsome doctor
says,"I don't care who you are, l love
