have the world in homage.
Campanini, the late impressarlo OF
the Chicago Opera Company, on hear
ing the news, rushed to London and
engaged her for his Company. Her
debut and appearances in opera, be-
fore the Company ceased operations
owing to the War, were marked by
enormous success.
Last season she rejoined the Chicago
Opera Company having in the mean
time devoted herself almost entirely
to war service. Again she scored un-
precedented triumphs in her perfor-
|.mances. The. critics began to COM
pare notes. At Chicago they pro-
nounced her singing in "Rigoletto"
superior to any heard. Time and
again performances were literally
stopped by the brilliance of her work.
Then New York, Boston and other
cities endorsed the verdict. Her
work more nearly approached the
standard of Sembrich and Melba than
any of her competitors. A consensus
of opinion in concert and festival
placed her head and shoulders above
| the bright lights of by-gone day.
