Temperatures on the Great Lakes and
possibility that the grain fleet Will

OPERA IN ENGLISH

CHICAGO, January Opera in
English, which has been given inn

mieres Of two works in the languag &c,
has appeared a third time on the Chi
cago Civic Opera company program

arranged with Mr.. Cadman for an
opera based on an Indian theme.
Praised by Critics.
Concerning Humperdinck's opera.
Chicago critics made these references
to the use of the English language
as an operate medium.
The English text was wholly in
telllgible at all times. Even when the
orchestra was noisy. one caught as
many OF the words as one would have
in any language. Furthermore the
voices sounded just as we'll in Eng.
lish as they have in Italian. French
or German. 1t was the best argument
for opera in English since the com.
pany was organized

Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt.

Probably one of the best known
women in the Government service,
Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, Is
one whose life story never grows stale.
Success stories that are an uninter-
rupted progression of orderly events,
each foreseen as logical step follow
ing the one before. are common mate
rial; but story whose handspring is
to be found in unusual personal char
acter and great ability Is never ordi-
nary.
Mrs. Willebrandt was born in Kan
sas. at Woodside. in Stevens County.
Her people were true pioneers, the two
generations before her having moved
successfully from New York to ILL
nois and fromIlinois to her own State
Mrs Willebrandt herself had the ex-
perience, as a child of 4. of going with
her father and mother in a covered
wagon" to Oklahoma in the great run
for land when the territory was open
ed. Her education was much inter-
rupted because of living on a farm,
but her parents gave her much per-
sonal attention. and when she went
into her first year in regular grade
school, at the age of IS. in Kansas
City. she was able to graduate in less
than a year. Her high school work
was done under similar difficulties, but
such was her determination that she
not only finished it. but went through
the Tempe, Ariz.. Normal School. and
the University Of Southern California
Law School, graduating with the de-
grees of LII. 3. and LII. NJ.
This is the educational background
upon which Mrs. W'illebrandt has built
one of the most remarkable careers of
our time. For some years she taught
school. but when her bar examinations
were passed she opened law Office
in Los Angeles, and for ten years fol-
lowed private practice in that city.
Part of this time she was assistant
Police Court defender, organizing the
work for women with James H. Pope,
and her record shows the defense of
over 1000 women.
Then, in August. 1921. the appoint
ment of the second woman to serve
as an Assistant United States Attor-
ney General was made. From among
the woman lawyers of the entire
country Mrs. Willebrandt was chosen
by President Harding as having the
most thorough equipment for that re-
sponsibility. She received recess
appointment through Attorney Gen.
eral Daugherty, the Senate confirming
the appointment in September of the
same year.
Her subsequent work has brought
her continually before the public. and
it is interesting to summarize the way
in which these five busy years have

This isn't going to be talk about
what kind of shoes a child should

and that would be plenty big enough
for their fathers. Huge soles, half an
inch thick; bulldog toes, and miles too
, big for them.
| Half of this is the fault OF the
statesmen. Some one has filled them
with the idea that childrens feet
must have plenty of room to grow.
But how many active children ever
wear their shoes longer than six
weeks or two months: And just how
long can a child's feet grow in that
| length of time Surely not the or
| inches that are allowed at the end of
| the shoe.
| Every time l buy my small son

are being fitted too short. Having

large for him.
Set your boys foot down on the

The problem of the girls shoes is

mo Mans Land"

During the great war we heard
much of mo Mans Land" and the
term being new to many Of us. 1t was
popularity regarded as having origi-
mated in that emergency. The fact
is, however, that the term has long
been used to designate land or terri
tory Of questionable ownership.
The mo Mans Land" Of barbed
wire and bayonets and shrapnel, on
both sides Of which opposing armies
crouched, Is no more. But off the
coast Of Massachusetts Is an uninhab-
tied island that has for many years
been called mo Mans Land" And in
South Australia. there is a territory
Of 5000 square miles whose indefinite
ownership long ago earned for it this
appellation.
The most interesting mo Mans
Land was a short time ago within
our very midst. This was a strip of
land on the boundary between Penn
sylvania and Delaware. Officially it
was declared to belong to Pennsyl-
vania, but some Of the inhabita nts
claimed that it was not part Of either
State, and they neither voted nor paid
taxes.
But for the small part taken from
Indian Territory. Oklahoma used to be
known as mo Mans Land" 1t was
coded to the country by Texas.

Where Little Pollen Blows.

Hay fever sufferers, to begin with,
fix the blame on the wrong pollen, Tor
il is seldom timothy. and even the
other grasses are innocent of the au-
tumnal attacks. at any rate. The real
culprit in. the majority of cases OF au-
tumnal hay" fever is ragweed.
Sneeze that one off before you con-
denim the hayseed.
The specific treatment, either Tor
the purpose of minimizing a subject
before the opening of his regular sea
son or relieving or shortening MS at
tack after the season Is on. consists
in the administration of rapidly as
cending series of doses of an abstract
of the pollen by hypodermic injection.
The specific pollen is determined by
skin tests.
Aside from specific treatment and
escaping to a resort where the pollen
isn't. some patients still obtain con-
siderable relief by taking internally
throughout the season. or for a week
or two before the opening of the cele-
bration, one or two doses of calcium
chloride daily. Ten grains may be
considered a moderate dose, and 1t is
best taken either in glassful of.water
or chased down with large drink OF
water, within the hour after food.
Sometimes this upsets the stomach
and must be discontinued.
A few sufferers have reported en-

ably warmed for use in the nose. This
they practice throughout the season.
Very dilute solutions of adrenalin
still hold a high place in the esteem
of confirmed sufferers. About tea
spoonful of the standard 1-to-1 900 So
luton may be mixed with 4 to ounces
of normal salt solution (Which Is about
a teaspoonful of table salt dissolved in
a pint of boiled water) and used three
or four times a day as nasal spray
or as drops for the eyes. This affords
only symptomatic relief.
The game of fleeing to resorts dur
ing the season is bet. You bet your
favorite pollen doesn't prevail about
the resort you select. Among the
places where relief may be sought are
