Metropolitan Opera
Company Sings Aide"
for Radio Broadcast

Metropolitan Opera stars and orches-
ira assisting in the celebration of Arm
istice night at the kingsbridge armory
in New York city, Saturday night had
an audience covering a radius of 1000
miles. The production of Aida on
that occasion is looked upon by experts
as the greatest musical event ever at
tempted by the radio.
For several days engineers of the
American Telephone and Telegraph
company operating the broadcasting
station, WEAF, were busy installing
the very latest apparatus, and the opera
was broadcasted IN a wave length of
400 meters. The musical numbers were
amplified not only at the armory, but
at a substation. whence they were re-
layed to the station of WEAF.
The performance began at s o'clock
and lasted two hours. The cast includ-
ed Mines, CarmeIla Ponselle. mezzo-
soprano, and Annie Roselle, Hungarian
dramatic soprano, together with Leon
Rothier, French basso, and Dimitry
Dobkin, Russian tenor. The Metropol-
itan orchestra of 100 pieces was direct
ed by Giuseppe Bamboshek. The Met
ropolitan chorus of 100 voices also
sang.
Another series of musical events of
q nature not dissimilar is the broadcast
ing which WIZ from Newark is to do
from the Manhattan Opera house. Be
ginning November %. with the first of
the IS concerts of the City Symphony
orchestra. the whole season of these
events will broadcast. The program will
consist of lighter classics and shorter
symphonic poems.

actively for the Countrywide ezpan-
sion of the custom"
Not only has the idea itself attained
the great popularity indicated in the
survey, which it is admitted probably
leaves out a number of cities that
should be included, but there have been
many new developments introduced
from year to year, some of which have
themselves met with wide favor. One
of these is the practice of serenading
by the carolers outside the homes of
shut-ins and the visiting of hospitals,
institutions for the aged. etc. The
traditional costume of a p and hood
is also being more extensively used. In
many towns some of the itinierant
bands consist entirely of adults, in
others partially of adults.

In order to inform our readers of

TO this oldest of American symphony

Review.
Toscanini begins early an Deem

at Milan's La Scala. where he has
built q reputedly splendid organiza-
ton from an array of average sing

and discipline have always worked
wonders. Italy would be 10th 20
have him leave. and when he elects
to do so there is sure to arise a wall

One day Toscanini will doubtless

Detroit Symphony
to Be Directed Now
by Gabrilowitsch

Ossip Gabrilowitsch belongs to the
small number of mortals who can do
many things well, q Y L. V. +, Key,
a New York music critic. in the Spokes-
man-Reyiew. He was a distinguished
musician years ago. As a pianist he
has always commanded q very special
place. Then he stepped upon an or
chestra conductors stand where his
accomplishments netted enough apprev-
al and newspaper space to be crafty
ing to his most ardent admirers.
New York heard Gabrilowitsch play
his first piano recital of the season an
afternoon or two ago. He was the
same suave artist. with pinesse and
accurate fingers and ,a~risticratie style.
One of the elect is G~abrilowitsch, and
he always has something unsteady TO
give which is both important and inter-
esting.
Detroit is building hopes upon his
activities there this year with the
Detroit Symphony. A large concert
schedule has been laid out. and Il drive
is to be made to build Il secure founda-
ton. The new manager. William f.
Walter. is peculiarly able. We hope
that Detroit will help him with his
huge task.

MORE Commandment
On FARMS SINCE
RADIO POPULARITY
City Dwellers Should Not Be.
grudge Agricultural
Programs.

Letters to editors in many sections
of the country seem to show an I'M
willingness on the part of some city
dwellers to cheerfully acquiesce in the
assignment of broadcasting time for
agricultural news and data, more di-
rectly valuable to the farm dweller.
Aside from any consideration due to
the agricultural interests because of
their proportionate Importance in the
business world, the urban dweller re-
ceives direct benefit from anything
that adds to the farmers prosperity
and pro~ductiveness. High prices for
food and other farm products are more
likely to be due to unscientific man
agement and poor crops than to any
manipulation to produce artificial val
ues. The law Of supply and demand is
the p~redominating influence in prices.
Any temporary reduction in prices be-
low the point where the farmer gets
a profit is sure to rebound in higher
prices later on. The Cutting of the
market is seldom of benefit either to
the producer or consumer.
Radio is adding to the productive
ness of the farm and is making the
farmer more contented and getting
better work out of him. And to just
that extent radio is making for big
crops and better quality. Only q small
portion of what the farmer raises is
for his own consumption. Anything
that makes for living profits for him
and for more scientific methods in his
work is for the benefit Of all of the
people and only the narrow-minded or
those who fail to think at all-unfor-
tunately there are a lot of the latter
will begrudge the time used for broad
casting for the guidance and entertain
ment of those on the farm.

GARDEN WON
Bic MONEY PLAYING
At MONTE CARLO
Singer "Broke" Two Tables
With System" She
Devised.

Mary Garden arrived IN chicago
from Europe November u to resume
her place as one of the stars of the
Chicago Opera company and forthwith
told her friends of a wonderful "sys-
tenn" she has perfected whereby she
did not exactly ''break the bank" at
Monte Carlo, but did succeed in break
ing tables and beating the game once
to the tune of $4,000 francs. On an
other occasion she won 10000 francs.
She has been guarding this secret
jealousy. When she landed IN New
York she hid it carefully, under a bar
rage about donkeys and supermen, etc.
Twenty New York journalists failed to
discover the secret. But Chicago
n~ewspapermen got after her in her
suite at the Drake hotel and learned
about it.
System Fascinates Her
Systems fascinate her, she said,
speaking of her visits to the gaming
halls. She saw the players, especially
the French, always figuring out "sys-
tens" and so she evolved one herself.
"Of course, that story about my
breaking the bank at Monte Carlo was
all rot" she said. "Why, do you know
that they have a vault there in which
they keep %, 000,0 900 francs ready TO
lose if necessary. Oh, absurd. No II
could break the bank.
But / broke tables. At each table
they start with $4,000 francs. II some
one wins that much they break the
table and then the man with the green
peak goes upstairs for more money.
Once | won $4,000 francs, another time
6O,0O0."
Surprised at Harris
Miss Garden is still interested in Bill
Hart. She wanted to know all about
him. He and his wife separated? She
couldn't understand it.
why" she said, 'they were very,
very happy when l saw them last in
California. However, they had just

She was full of stories and told ~
of the Russian who won 100000 francs

came back and lost most of it again.

Speaking of the modest beginnings
of the movement in America the sur
gey says:
Ten years ago outdoor Christmas
eve caroling. especially by itinerant
groups through the streets of town and
village. was almost unknown in this
country. The beautiful old custom that
had once been universal in England
had all but died.
THE widespread adoption of the
Community Christmas tree did much
to bring the carols to public attention
again. Yet the singing of the charm
ing old Yuletide songs for the public
benefit was all too infrequent and the
