character and excellent contrast to
Chaliapin'S BaSillio. These two have
played these roles together many
times, more than 100, and the story is
told that Chaliapin stated he would
not appear in this opera here unless
Ananian We're engaged-for Bartolo.
Tina Paggi, brilliant coloratura So
prano,' handled her difficult arias with
admirable poiSe and charming inter
probation. All the many embroideries
of her melodious numbers were nice
ly balanced and given with accurately
placed tones. The famous Una POGO
Ia of the first act was beautifully
sung, and in the singing lesson scene
of the last act she sang two encores,
''Charmant Oiseau," from Fellcien
David's "Perle du Brasil" and Capt
nera," by Sir Jules Benedict: Her
cadenzas were crystal clear and clean
cut in execution. She, too, was a fine
actress and looked her part.
Nadworney as Bertha.
Devorah Nadworney, a young Amer
lean mezzo soprano, did not have
much opportunity to show voice or
acting in her small role of Bertha.
She is singer who has been attract
ing much attention in concert work
and also in opera, having sung such
established opera companies. She
was the first prize-winner given the
award offered by the National Fedora
tion of Music Clubs, and has sung at
the Berkshire festivals given by Mrs.
+. S. Coolidge.
Albert Shefferman was the only
WaShingtonian in the cast, and ac-
quilted himself we'll in the double
role of Fiorello and Ambrosius.
jacques Samassoud led his orchestra
through the gay passages of this de-
lightful score with skillful interpreta-
tion. The "thunder-and-light
music of the second act was especially
we'll done. After the performance,
Sol Minister, acting as spokesman for
the men in the orchestra, presented
Mr.. Samassoud with a silver cigarette
box and holder as a memento Of their
appreciation Of his leadership during
the season.
Mr.. and Mrs. Albion are to be con-
graduated on having so successfully
given a fine operatic comedy, and
Enrica Dillon deserves mention for
good scenic effects.
Chaliapin stated after the perform
ance last night that he considered this
performance the finest he had ever
sung in or seen, including perform
anceS of this opera at the Metro
politan." He praised each member
of the cast and announced himself
as thoroughly satisfied with costumes,
scenery, orchestra and other details.
The great Russian will appear here
several times next season with the
Washington Opera Company and in
concert recital under the direction of

'BARBERO Of SEVILLE
SUNG FINELY HERE
ChaIiapin Heads Cast of Lo-
Cal Opera Company Before
Big AppreCiative Crowd.

Several thousand Washihgtonians,
including many personages prominent
in social and official life of the Capital,
again filled the Washington Audi
torium almost to capacity last night
TO listen to the latest in the list of
fine operas sung here this season,
Rossinis melodious Barber of Sc
Vile" an ideal Easter Monday enter
tainment.
For the most part Washington has
felt it necessary to take its opera
seriously, but last night the atmos-
phere was charged with infOrmality
and jollity The actor-singers seemed
imbued with the true spirit of this
masterpiece of buffo-Italian opera
and they soon communicated this
spirit across the footlights until the
audience relaxed and thoroughly en-
jOyed the comical situations and
clever satirical interpretations by the
singers even when they could not get
the laughable contents of the GLIDE
Italian words. Everybody had a
grand time and not a single murder
occurred on the stage during the
entire evening.
Chalapin's Work Notable.
OF course the dominating figure of
the performance was F'eOdOr Chalia-
pin, who, by now, is perilously close
to being the idol of Washington, at
least as far as opera is concerned.
In the role of Don Basilio, the willy
old monk music teacher, the great
Russian proved his complete mastery
of the art of 'medy as we'll as of
tragedy, shown here earlier in his
Boris.
AS in Mephisto, he portrays this
character with an ironical touch,
making the character somewhat re
pulSive as well as ludiCrous. His
makeup is superb and not unlike eff
fects obtained by De Wolf Hopper in
some of his light opera scoundrel
roles sung here last Summer. AS
usual, Mr.. Chaliapins hands are a
marvellous help in his characterization
and the manner in which he colored
his tones with Chuckling laughter,
even when singing with the richest
of mellow voices. was remarkable.
He seemed too, to be in particularly
good voice last night.
The Barber of Seville" evidently
was written before the time of the
T. B. NJ, for the only chorus is
male chorus and a majority of the
principal characters are men. Jose
Mojica, the "sheik" of grand opera,
was beautiful, but far from dumb, in
the role of Count AlmaViva. AS one
old dowager in the second row was
heard to remark, He can sing, too.
He has a fine lyric quality of voice
and marvellous fexibility of tone, en-
comprising difficult coloratura caden-
gas with east and excellent breath
control. He also is a fine actor. His
Italian enunciation was clear and
musical.
IvantZoff Is Effective.
Ivan Ivantzoff's rich baritone voice
showed to great advantage in the trip
ping phrases of Figaro, the barber.
This younger pair of masculine sing
ers won almost as enthusiastic ap-
probation from the audience as the
older pair of artists, Chaliapin and
Ananian.
Paolo Ananian is a finished artist,
and his English phrases now and then
were hugely enjoyed. He made Bar

Effective Scheme for
Warming Up the Motor

For those who drive at night and
leave the car standing for several
hours while attending the theater or
dining. a simple and effective scheme
for insuring quicker warming of the
motor is recommended. A good way
to get the motor warmed up is to
place good-sized piece of newspaper
over the front OK the radiator. The
air suction caused by the fan keeps
the paper from falling off. If there is
nonfreezing dope in the radiator. the
water may become too hot after few
miles of driving In this case, provid-
ing the car is equipped with a self
starter, all that is necessary is to stop
the motor and release the paper, after
which the engine may again be start
ed. In all cases the motor should be
primed with gasoline in cold weather
to insure easier starting and prevent
overtaxing the starter.

to those that are now overburdened
with traffic. All along. the thought
has been that in an automotive way,
the country had almost attained its
full growth but still the factories are
hard put in normal times to meet the
orders that are placed.
1t is fairly easy matter to get a
car. Prices have been reduced and
payments made easy. Spot delivery Is
about the only thing that cannot be
arranged, but the purchaser who Is
willing to wait few weeks can be a
motorist. And If a new car ls not
thought necessary and used car can
be made to serve, one can be picked
up in the same time that 1t takes to
buy hat or pair of shoes.
Buying Road Not Easy.
But buying new road Is not SO
simple. 1t is matter that must pass
through many hands and receive many
appr0vals after many delays. After 1t
is all settled and decided on, there is
an immense amount of work to be
done for roads are manufactured on
specific order-they cannot be turned
out in advance and stored against flu
ture need.
The army Of "road wanters' has ex-
cellent officers In its highway officials.
but 1t needs more civilian officers and
workers-men and women who are en-
ployed in stores. on farms, in shops
and Offices who have vision OF what Is
needed and who are willing to speed

way is possible or convenient to expe-
dite the bodybuilding program.

Winter Driving Methods
Are Cited in Bulletin

keep warm and be safe" says the
touring and transportation lizard Of
the American Automobile association
in a special bulletin issued froto head
quarters as warning to motorists
planning extensive winter tours
throughout sections of the country
where winter driving is becoming the
rule rather than the exception.
|. The A. A. A. board points out that
carelessness in cold weather driving
is largely the result of being cold.
Keep as warm as possible when tour
ing in cold weather, and 1t will be
easier TO observe the simple rules OF
caution" it urges.
"These should include suitable cloth
ing, particularly warm gloves" says
the bulletin TOO many drivers are
handicapped by numb fingers during
their winter trips SO that If they are
called upon to recrank the motor in an
emergency, dim the headlights or shift
gears they are at loss.
1T Is foo!nardy to attempt to make
great mileage without sufficient stop
overs for hot food. 1t requires more
energy to fight the elements in winter,
and drivers cannot afford to feel that
because they are stimulated by the
snappy air they can endure more siren
nous driving.
Excepting warm is the first rule OF
keeping safe in cold weather Closed
cars are proving their value in this
connection, but even here the motorist
must take the definite precautions
against subjecting himself to unneces-
sary exposure, and thus to Gnneces'
sary hazards"

TACTLESSNESS

TIME very day of Mrs. Jones' dinner
i party, Mercy and Percy Lord heard
of Edward Jones' divorce from his
wife.
DINNER is to come off just the
same" said Percy. 'but for heavens
sake, Mercy, don't bring up the sub
ject of Edward"
A few hours later the Lords arrived
at the Jones house. Good evening"
said Mercy to her hostess, how Is
Edwards"
1t was always like that; she always
said Just what she hadn't meant TO
say. Outside she carried it off smli-
ing, but inside she was full of dead
mems bones"
At last they went in to the table.
and Mercy drew a deep breath and
fixed her attention firmly on the
things she must not talk about. she
must not mention politics or religion
In a general gathering. Then. How
shall you vote?" she heard herself
asking her dinner partner; and re-
membered too late Percy's saying that
that was the unforgiveable direct
question to a man. MY husband is
a Republican" she FASTENED to add
as her neighbor declared himself a
Democrat.
SO 1t went from bad to worse. The
climax came when, growing more and
