Baltimore Man Has
No Trouble Eating;
Stomach Cut Out

BALTIMORE, Jan. 2O.-His
stomach removed a week ago in
an operation at the Johns Hop
kins Hospital, man is taking
food regularly and apparently is
recovering.
1t is the first instance of such
an operation being performed
successfully in Maryland, ac-
cording to Doctor j. M. T. Fin
ney, surgeon in charge of the
case. The operation was found
necessary because of a tumor.
In discussion before the Bal
timore City Medical Society,
Doctor Finney said that patho-
logical study of dogs intes-
tines some time after the stom-
ach was removed showed that a
section of the intestines had en-
larged to serve as a stomach.
Doctor Finney asserted that
only thirty-two such operations
ever had been performed, and
that of these one-half were sue
cessful, the patients developing
normal appetites and living for
many years.

TOTIDA[ MONTE
SUPERB IN
RECITAL
italian CoIoratura Soprano
Enchants Hearers in Con-
cert at Polls
By JESSIE MacBRIDE.

Beautiful is the first adjective
to use in speaking of the voice of
Toti Dial Monte. Italian coloratura
soprano, who. this year has been
one of the big headliners of both
the Metropolitan and the Chicago
Operas Youth, too, with a per,
sonality that wins you much in
the manner of miniature Tettraz-
zini, belongs to this wide.eyed
rotund little prima donna whose
Washington debut was made at
Polls Theater yesterday, with her
greatest ovation given for her ex-
quisite singing of the Mad Scene
aria from 'Lucia.v
Dial Monte's voice has soul and
depth and mellow beauty added to
her flights into "altissimo," with
scale that is perfect, with
puts pathos into her Lucia that

rare song-bird with the heart OF
sweet Italian child. Beneath this,
however, is a deep musicianship.
When before have we heard a
coloratura voice giving so profound
yet so exquisite a rendition Of Schu.
bert and of Schumanni
There was almost an essense OF
perfume in her tones as she sang,
in italian, "Du Dist vie enc blume''
she was the humming bird who
sucked the sugar from the rose in
Sehubert's "Roslein," for here again
was that rich quality with a lovely
MARBLE in it's spontaneity.
Deep notes give weight to her
gay, clear, lovely runs. Her staccato
runs are priceless. Yet dramatic
power is here in the Queen of the
Night" aria from Mozart's Magic
Flute"
Again one can imagine her in the
Barber of Seville" as a real come
dian from the Spanish aria of Chap
ia Hayas" to the fascinating
Laughing Song" from "Manon
Lescaut'' she sang deliciously and
in English.
A child of Venice, her Venetian

sense in her transition into minor.
Sometimes her top voice was shrili;

Notice to Dog Owners

There seems to be a false imprcs-
sion among some owners of dogs in
Pocomoke that because 1924 licenses
were not issued until last September
it is not necessary for them to renew
their license until next September.
This impression, however, is erron-
cous. While there was delay last
year in enforcing this law, yet all
licenses were issued for fiscal year
ending April 80, 1925.
Because of this misunderstanding,
the city officials will extend the time
of procuring new tags until June l.,
1925. On and after that date all dogs
found within the corporate limits Of
Pocomoke City that are not licensed
for 1925 will be killed, so don't fail
to get your tags before June 1st.

Bishop OF Washington.

recognizes no laws and violates all
conventions spells out but one thing,
namely. disaster.
Jesus declared that the basis for
freedom was to be found in the recog-
milton of truth. He came declaring
II am not come to destroy, but TO full
fill." The avowed purpose Of His
ministry was TO give to man principles
of living that would contribute to the
more abundant life" He Himself
began His ministry by attacking
practices that were time honored, but
fraught with peril to the best interests
of the people. All along His way He
inveighed against those who for sell
fish purposes preserved customs that
were inimical to the largest and high
est development of men. To His time
He seemed reyolutionist, and yet in
spite of this He maintained at all times
that obedience to well constituted laws
was the bounden duty of every citizen
in the commonwealth. Even the In
iouitoms tax laid by the Roman govern
ment He would willingly pay.
His supreme effort was TO make men
see that right living and right rela-
tions as between man and man call
for recognition of principles that are
basic and fundamental. He brought
to men no stern decalogue, but He
did attempt to compel their recogni-
ton of those eternal truths that guar
antee 10 all alike life. liberty and the
pursuit OF happiness. He did main
tain that where there were no re-
straints or self-imposed disciplines hu-
man relationships were impaired and
wholesome systems degenerated.
1t is not difficult to discover what
were the fundamental things that He
taught. II our search for the new
freedom ia to issue in the breaking
down of all wholesome conventions
and practices, disregard for sacred
marital ties. the aba ndonment Of par
entail control and filial obedience, the
giving over of the common decencies
of social life and disregard for those
things that contribute TO integrity in
commercial and social relations, then
our new freedom may be but the pre-
cursor of our ultimate dissolution and
decay
II we would have freedom of the
best kind we must Secure it through
obedience to the truth 6 given to the
world by Jesus Christ.
