higher standard for both.

Pushkin, the famous poet, graced the city with his residence for many years, and so operas made from his stories are liked, "Mazeppa,' among others. One favorite is "Dobrovsky,' the tragedy of bandit. libretto by Pushkin music by Naprovniki. This opera has a fine romance, duet in the third act, when lovers sing and promise to be always true, always the same" This refrain especially touches the audi ence, One remarks it by a set still ness, rather than by tears.
 The opera over, the singers and the men back stage slip homewards; the people file out like shadows through the gloom of the streets, the lights of the building drop away, the mists roll in from the sea, and dark ness, and silence and the unburied possess Odessa again.

Russians Wanting Food Turn to
 Melody as Only Comfort

Odessa, June 6-Music. once the joy of the people of Russia, is now their consolation. They hunger for to make their unhappy days more bearable.
 In passing the unlighted streets of the cities of the lower Volga, the stranger is often guided by piano music bursting upon the darkness. Walking at early morning through the streets of Astrakhan little boys and girls, often refugees, may be seen at the open windows, at practice, thrum- ming on dilapidated pianos. At the dreary stations, during the long waits, people sing. This kindly. talented people turn to music for comfort as unconsciously as a distressed child to it's mother.
 They have no postwar music. no jazz and pep and buzz saw compost tions. Theirs are the old, old songs of love lost. of the bitter-sweet of happiness gone, of the prisoner in his cell, of the shadow OCT the heart"
 Here in Odessa, by the Black Sea, there is and has been opera, good opera for several dreadful years. The fields outside the city are bare, the cemeteries are full. and new ones gape for more bodies each day. No home, no city, no war, no battlefield knows such sadness. The singers on the stage are hungry, so are the scene shifters: the musicians are hungry and so is the audience.
 Yet each evening, through the darsening streets, thousands take their souls to the doors of the hand some opera house, thousands whose bodies are ragged with old clothes, whose stomach are as empty as the fields but whose hearts yet respond to the magic of music.
