CARUSO

1t is not surprising that the
popular movement to establish a
memorial to Caruso should at
once become worldwide. because
Caruso although a native OF
Italy, belonged to the world.
Wherever music lovers dwell.
there the voice of the richly tai
ented Neapolitan was known.
Born of humble parentage. he
rose to a high state as result
of a voice that exerted a marvel
Gus power and which now is still
ed forever. Perhaps not since the
day of Jenny Lind has any singer
been placed on as high pedestal
in the matter of public esteem as
Caruso occupied. and he was a
favorite alike in the countries
where the tongue is Latin, Eng
lish. Teutonic or Slavic.
Starting life from a lowly posi-
ton. he sought and won the hest
gifts fortune has TO offer. 1t is
said cf him that he was an UNI
promising pupil as a student of
music, but he must have had
great faith in his ability to suc-
coed. Instead of being discourag-
ed by poor progress i'll his early
days, he persisted in his attempts
to master the technique required
properly to use the wonderful
voice with, which nature had en-
bowed him. Music. it appears.
was as difficult for him to learn,
as for many who have no singing
voices whatever.
How thorough his training may
have been may be judged from
the fact that an edition of Who's
Who" states that he had no must
cal education worthy of note. 1t
will thus be seen that the great
tenor rose to a great height de-
spite discouraging handicap. 1t
NAV be said that fame was gen
erous toward him but if fortune
smiled on him he. returned the
smile with interest. He amply re-
paid the world for all of its gifts
and now that he is gone and his
voice is silenced for all time his
contemporaries will acclaim him
as one of the notable characters
Of his time. sA.--..---.-...-..-.-

0H OW do you know that that is
IA sop "A certain party told
me-"
The foregoing conversation was
overheard recently. The second
speaker should have said: "A certain
person told me-" not, "a certain
party"
This use of the word party for
person" is quite common. but 1t is
condemned by all authorities on Eng
lish grammar as being incorrect
Some. indeed, go so far as to call it
vulgar.
1t should be remembered. however,
that the word party" meaning an
individual. has a proper place in Eng
fish. We may speak of "a party to
a contract" or "the party of the first
part" or "the parties to the marriage"
Woolley's Handbook of Composition"
gives the following sentence as an ex-
ample of the correct use of the word:
The parties TO the marriage were
both young" The following is given
as Incorrect: THE party who wrote
that article must have been scholar"
