WORK is HARD ON ARTISTS
Singing Into the Recording Horn Con-
coded to Be Nerve-Racking
Experience.

Music is lot trickier to can than
peaches or pears, remarks Farm and
Fireside.
When you play one Of your phono-
graph records you have no idea how
hard 1t may have been to get that mel
ody preserved" You are listening to
the result Of a lot Of mighty hard
work, which may have included con-
siderable storming by the director and
tears on the part Of the artist. Some
artists simply cannot sing for the rec
ords at all, while others are nervous
wrecks for days after = session OF re-
cording.
To sing into q recording horn may
look easy-just as 1t may look easy
for a baseball player to hit a ball
over the fence for a home run--but
In reality 1t is one Of the most diff
cult, nerve-racking things anyone can
attempt.
On the concert stage a singer with
q good voice may make little mis-
takes without the audience noticing
them. II he has an attractive pres
ence and an engaging manner, he may
even sing q bit off key and yet make
a hit. But the wax master record Is
a relentless mirror, with no mercy for
the imperfections that the average art
ist-like other human beings-is
guilty of. The slightest waver or
strain In the voice, the slightest devia-
ton from the true pitch, comes out
badly. And the very fear Of making
these mistakes and flaws "hoodoo"
most singers into making them.
The result Is that many a popular
stage artist has met defeat in the
laboratory.

Is Against Women
AS Grand Jurors

County Prosecutor Archibald Hart
either he will reap a world of thanks
for his frankness or he will draw
down upon his frank head some
criticism from the opposite sex. Last
week, after thirty-five petit women
jurors and one woman grand juror
had been drawn, he issued statement
that for clearness of view and definite
opinion ranks with the very best that
has ever been said on the subject.
Among other things, Mr.. Hart said:
Mature established q difference be-
tween man and woman. The law has
created them equal Womankind has
very modestly boasted that it is now
the equal of mankind. A fair compli-
ment to us, inasmuch as they boast
that they have been raised to our level

"Perhaps their pleasure will be al

respects in order to be made equal they
may be lowered. Perhaps as an Off
Ger of the law / should visualize them
as the same. Yet / have an old-fash-
toned respect for the more delicate
sensibilities of womankind, and this
influences me to depl0re the serving of
women in all cases before our grand
and petty juries.

vulgar type who most eagerly seek the
extreme of mannishness for the prob

Investigation of Standard
Sinclair Conspiracy Charge
Under Way By U. S. Atty.

INVESTIGATE o FSTAND-12 ----
Chicago. Ill. Charges that the
STANDARD Oil Company Of Indiana and
the Sinclair Oil Company are engag-
ed in conspiracy to drive out indie.
pendent oil dealers in this district are
being investigated by c. r. Clyne,
United states District Attorney. with
a view to prosecution under the Clay.
ton Act. according to information
given by Mr.. Clyne to a representative
of The Christian Science Monitor yes
therday.
Independent dealers recently filed
complaints with Mr. Clyne alleging
that the two companies had employed
an agent to undersell the indepen-
dents. This agent, they said, during
the past nine months has approached
n large number of customers of the
independents with offers of oil at
prices considerably below the market
They allege the oil offered came
from the Standard and Sinclair com
panies at the regular market price,
with big rebate. After collecting
large amounts of money on the oil
deliveries. this agent disappeared with
out paying the Standard and Sinclair
companies for the oil sold 10 him, de-
clare the independents.
The alleged monopoly interests have
tried TO force payment for the oil from
the various customers. and by going
into the county courts here for col
lection orders, have inadvertently re-
yealed what is alleged TO be unfair
practices and conspiracy in restraint
OF trade.
The oil consumers have replied in
the various suits that the Standard
and Sinclair companies are not en-
titled to collect, because they have
paid the agent Of these interests. II
they prove that they have paid the
agent. II is said. the Standard and
Sinclair companies will have "a hard
time showing that they did not con.
spre to ruin the Independents by en-.
ploying the same agent To undersell
them.
The independents claim the mono
poly interest know where the agent Is
and they have asked Mr.. Clyne TO find
him, He has promised to 20 into
the matter thoroughly and bring
suit against the Standard and SIN
clair companies II sufficient evidence
is found,-Christian Science Monitor
