The little Mice felt like saying that
their Daddy was talking about it be-
fore them, and though they knew they
would get some, it was hard to wait.
"They were talking of Christmas
stories and of Christmas shopping, and
of everything about Christmas, and

The reason for such a letter from Mrs.
Young is apparent. She got well and
is grateful. Recently a nationwide
canvass of women purchasers of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was
made, and SO out of 100 reported that
they received benefit from taking it.
Just because the Vegetable Compound
has been helping other women is good
reason why it should help you. For

to interest American citizens in the
appearance Of the United States Ma
rine Band in Cadle Tabernacle for
two concerts, next Thursday after
noon and night, according to the
declaration of Ed Gausepohl, chair
man OF the entertainment committee
Of the Murat Shriners, under whose
auspices this organization will ap-
pear here.
School children are especially ap-
pealed to and a special low price
has been made for them at the matt
nee. it is announced, but it is pointed
out that the entire scale of prices
for these concerts is much lower
than the band has been playing for
in other cities on this tour.
This is because we have a seating
capacity of about 10000 for each
concert" Gausepohl said. 1T would
be a shame for the aauditorium TO
be only partially filled whin the at
traction has such high musical
merit and such a popular and patri-
otic appeal" he added.

REAL BARONESS
BOOKED TO- SING
At B. F. KE|TH'S
Vera Lavrova Hailed as An
other Patti by the
Critics,

In the guise Of an exquisite young
girl, charming to look at, more than
charming to meet, simple in tastes,
and refined in manner, a genuine
baroness and singing sensation
has made her debut upon the B. F.
Keith circuit She will appear at
the local Keith Theater Nov. 2 for
the week.
Vera Lavrova, young Russian
beauty, whose extraordinary cOlora-
tura soprano voice has won her the
title in America of another Patti,
is, in private life, the Baronss Royce
Garrett, wife Of Baron Captain Mich
ael Royce-Garrett, lineal descendant
Of an English companion Of Peter
the Great, who settled in Russia.
At the age Of 25, this daughter of
Russian aristocracy has been
through brutal experiences which
might easily have killed her. She
and her young husband, who had
lost a leg fighting with the white
army against the Bolshevil1s, spent
months vending a tortuous way
through southern Russia to the
shores Of the Black Sea, where they
were aided by the English to reach
America. Suffering and privations
almost beyond human endurance
were their lot for week after week.
One catches a glimpse Of her suf-
ferings only in her singing. There
is a soul to her voice which other
great singers lack. depth and emo
tional power to her interpretations
Of Russian masterpieces in particu-
lar. which tell more eloquently than
words the suffering she has expert
enced.

for his work in this picture almost

What have you against the cast?
Wallace Beery does some fine work,
although not quite so good as in
some OF HIS previous productions
But what of Enid Bennett? I ad-
NIT that I have never liked her work
very well before. but in this pic
ture I certainly have to hand her
a bouquet.
Then your remark about the end
ing being a burlesque travesty on
the happy finale. In that statement
you go one step too far. You said.

of the Latin quarter and I am glad

Such bookings will tax the ability

am absolutely sold" on both attrac-
tions even before they get here be
cause I know what to expect of
both.
It may not be wise booking to
crowd two such big offerings upon
Indianapolis during the same day.
Rachmaninoff needs no additional
words Of praise and the ability of
the San Carlo organization is too
well known here to repeat words
Of praise.
indianapolis does not get much
opera The visits of Rachmaninof
are not frequent enough. Other
cities have such a rush of musical
bookings and it is squarely up to
sthe musical organization of Indi-
annapolis to support these two worth
while attractions.
The reason that I am taking this
liberty OF calling attention to these
two bookings is that both are ex-
pensive attractions. Opera is the
most expensive pastime upon the
stage.
Mr. Trowbridge has been advised
that the San Carlo Opera Company
will be able to present at the Murat,
one OF the following operas: ''Trova-
tore" by Verdi; Faust" with Elda
Veltori: "Rigoletto." by Verdi with
Tina Paggi. new coloratura soprano,
or Madam Butterfly" by Puccini
with N1iura, Japanese prima donna.
Personally. I do not believe that
il would be wise to repeat Madam
Butterfly" because the San Carlo
company presented it here last sea
son. Ny choice would rest between
Faust and 'Rigoletto." Ny first
choice is Faust
I would welcome letters from read
ers of this department concerning
their choice of the four operas.
Write me. please, Let me get line
on what Indianapolis wants to see IN
the line of opera.

week will be the last week for sea
son tickets for her three Sunday aft
