CQNTRALT0 PUTS
OVER A SUCCESS
IN HER CONCERT
Miss Frances Ingram PIcases
Audience at o. c. w. In One OF
cieverest Programs Ever
Staged In City.

Perhaps the best phrase TO use In
describing the work OF Miss Frances
Ingram. prima donna contralto OF
the Chicago Opera association, Is
one drawn from the street: her
peculiar merit is that she has the
ability to put Il over" which Is the
final test for the artist as Il is for
the follower OF every line OF human
endcavor.
Presented by the MacDowcll Mu.
sic club and the Oklahoma College
for Women, Tuesday evening In the
0. c. w. auditorium, Miss ingram
sang TO large audience and from
the first until the last number re
ceiyed enthusiastic applause. return.
ing to the sage in response to a
final encore even after she had
finished her program. Other singers
may have more OF tie voice quality
called sweetness; others may
equal her in technique and others
may have as much of the element
Of pleasing personality though none
more. but few will surpass Miss In
gram In combination OF qualities
which go to make up the truly sue.
cessful singer. Possibly one would
not go far wrong If he should single
out sheer intelligence as the secret
Of the subtle power by which she
brings the minds and hearts OF her
hearers into unison with her own
as she interprets. with all the skill
Of the true artist, the thoughts and
feelings of the authors of her songs
While not lacking in the least in
emotional appeal, she is first of all
a thoughtful singer; to her singing
is something more than pleasing
vocalization: it means the conveying
CT message. In the aria from
Samson and Dellah" and in "Cry
of Rachel" (Salter) her remarkable
dramatic powers were shown at her
best. To single out any special
number in a program of so much
variety and every number of which
was SO pleasing may be improper
but probably most of those who
heard Miss Ingram will agree that
i'll Last Night" (Kjerulf) she dis
played a dellcacy of execution and
depth Of interpretative power which,
IL the expression be permissible,
may be termed "super-art."
Miss 1ngram's accompanist was
Miss Margaret Ringgold, who is an
oklahoma girl being a member of
a we'll known music club at Tulsa.
Both in her accompaniments and in
her piano number, which was heart
lily encored, Miss Ringgold met all
requirements and made most
pleasing impression upon the audi
ence.

United States Department of Agri-
culture, which contains detailed in
formation about these useful animals,
from a brief history of their develop
ment down to management of goat
ranches, the marketing Of mOhair, and
the treatment Of diseases.
Texas Is the leading goat-raising
region Of the United States, having
more Angoras than all other states COM
bined. Conditions of topography, al
titude, climate, and price Of land have
all joined to help make the ranches
successful. Open-brush range. similar
to that I'm Texas, makes the remaining
part Of the Southwest second In AngOra
ranging. Many fine orchards in the
Northwest stand on land that was
brushed off by the goats, and there is
much land in that region that is adapt
ed for permanent goat ranging. The
Ozarks, In southern Missouri and
northern Arkansas, contain many
bands Of Angoras and will support
more on permanent brush,utilizing

typical goat range Angoras may be
used for brush-clearing by handling
them much as sheep are handled.
