ONLY ONE GADSK|
AND HER SINGING IS
STILL UNMATCHED
Great Falls Business Man Says
Time Has Come to Raise
Ban on German Music.
By j. E. TRACY

Commenting on the temperance of
Madame Johanna Gadski, premier
grand opera prima donna of Wag-
merriam fame, Henry f. Krehbel of the
New York Tribune, the dean of critics,
makes certain statements for the sake,
as he puts it, of the v~erities of his
tory. Referring to a number of COM
munications which he has received in
the way of protest against Madame
Gadski's appearance, and with no de-
sire to in any way excuse her reported
attitude before and during the war, he
says that the incident which has been
so often referred to in the press to
the effect that Nine. Gadski and her
guests held a jollification after the
sinking of Lusitania, at which Otto
Goritz. well known singer and then
member of the Metropolitan Opera
company, sang some offensive coup
let's, did not take place as generally
understood.
The entertainment at Nine. Gadski's
home took place some seven months
later Oh New Years Eve. when it is
customary not only for Germans but
for others to celebrate. 1t was on
this occasion that Goritz sang his
%couplets.

bune, praised her highly for her sing
ing of Isolde's "Swan Song, In whose
concluding measures, he said her voice,
which had taken on a grandeur, tran
guilty and beauty unmatched in the
preceding songs, blended with the
transfigured harmonies of the orches-
ira and freighted the air with puissant
and thrilling loneliness.
The time must surely come when
the ban of German music shall be re-
moved and if that be true, the sooner
we do it, the better. Regardless OF
her nationality, there is but one Cad
ski. and wherever she appears, she is
received with greater favor than ever
before in her brilliant career. She
will be heard in Great Falls Novem-

SWEDISH AUTO TAX
 MEANS BETTER ROADS

STOCKHOLM, Nov. 27. = Swedish motorists will begin to pay taxes on their vehicles and tires on January 1, 1923. Tourists from foreign coun- tries, however, may still bring their own cars into the country and roam about at will for as much as twelve months without any charge whatso- ever
 The new auto tax, which is to be applied to the repairing and improve ments of roads in Sweden, is levied on cars and tires according to their weight Each car using rubber tires is taxed 8 kronor for every hundred kilograms or, fraction thereof, which amount to about $1 per hundred pounds. The tires in use at the be- ginning of next year will be exempt, and in the case of pneumatic tires, two extras will be exempt.

Boys Will Be Boys" the Irwin s. Cobb story in which Goldwyn stars Will Rogers, showing at the Empress Theater for the last time tonight, is as flavorous of Kentucky as a mint julep. It will have the same effect on your heart that good mint julep has on your system--a warming, enlivening influence which will stay with you until you get home and will be revived every time you think of the loyable old Peep O'Day as interpreted by Will Rogers. Every patron of the motion picture theater loves Will Rogers and the very human sort of persons whom he impersonates on the screen. Boys Will Be Boys" contains the perfect Will Rogers role in the person of Peep O,Day, the man who never had a boyhood until he was far past the half-century mark. Irwin s. Cobb never wrote funnier, kindlier or more human story and Will Rogers never had a part that suited him better.

ENGLISH WOMEN
 ADVISED SMOKE PIPES

4 LONDON, Nov. 27.-English physi- clans are urging women who are ad- dicted to smoking, to use a pipe and good tobacco instead of the cigarette. The doctors point out that the nico- tine found in the cheaper brands of cigarettes is much more injurious to women than to men, and they declare that the perfumes and scents used in brands prepared for the fair sex are injurious.
 { Two recent deaths of women have been attributed directly to cigarette smoking. While these cases have been due to excessive smoking, the physicians say that the same amount of pipe smoking probably would not have had fatal results.
 Smoking among women in London is now almost universal, and one rare- ly goes to a theater, dance or res taurant where the majority of the women present are not smoking.
 Recently two young women ap- peared at an athletic meet smoking pipes, and many of the fashionable shops of Bond Street have exhibited stocks of pipes designed for the femi- nine smoker However, the innova- tion has made little progress, and cig- arettes are still the favorite.
