but twice this season, under the
noted Russian. Serge Koussevitzky,
viii have an eventfuI season this
year OF 1926.27.
Koussevitzky. as the New York
Times proclaimed last season, ''jus-
titles superlatives." He brought
forth a number of new and sig
nificant works during the past year,
with compositions by Prokofief,
Respighi, Hindemith, Ibert. Tans-
man, Roussel, Tailleferre. and the
American composers. COPELAND, Blocn,
Spelman, Gilbert and Loeffler.
There was an unusual number
OF choral performances including
Beethoven's Ninth Symphony,
Brahms German Requiem" (both
performed at Pension Fund con-
and Psalm XIII: Prokofieff's Sept,
lis sont Sept: Ibert's Chant de
F'olie''; Ducasse's "Sarabande"; and
Borodin's dances from Prince
Igor"
In Boston this year there are
waiting lists for each of four series,
and for the double series in New
York.
"Fate Is mysterious thing. 1t
seems to favor those who keep
thinking of the best in themselves
and in their fellow men. who never
cease working, and who possess OPP
timistic patience"
So says Lawrence Tfbbetts, BARI
tone Of the Metropolitan Opera,
whose sudden leap to fame came as
surprise to the music world. For
Tibbetts' fame came not alone "a
young man with rare voice,
but as an actor whose character
roles were already finely conceived
masterpieces.
"It may seem extravagant t.
say" he wrote last June in the
Etude Music Magazine, that
everything one does counts to adj
vantage in ones musical career.
but, as I see the subject in the
view OF my own experience. this
is unquestionably the case.
THE main thing in any must
cal career is a high ideal.
This, accompanied with patience,
confidence in ones star. and inces-
sent industry, usually accomplishes
more than one really anticipates"
That long. long road according
to Tibbetts) means Patience, at
tuned to Industry.

United States Gains AS
Retired Diplomats Settle

By=JEAN ELIOT


|" HE rumor. apparently authen-
tic, that Don Juan Riano,
- former ambassador of Spain to
the United States, is to fill an i'm
portant and remunerative post with
the Hispanic Museum in New York,
has given rise to the query what
becomes of the foreign diplomats
who become Americans by adop-
tion?"
They form considerable group,
even going back no further than
the memory of the present scribe.
For example there is DR.. Stephen
Panaretoff, long minister of Bull
garia to the United States. who is
permanently settled in Washington
and who is now on the staff of
George Washington University. He
teaches the young idea how to shoot
along international lines and lee
lures on the Near East. He is
highly regarded both by the uni
versity and by his pupils. DR.. Pana-
retoff has a tie that binds him
strongly to the United States in an
American wife.

try and an extremely popular mem

ever since his retirement from the

Peru and the United States.
Moreover the Pezets have given
q hostage to this country in their
son, A. Washington PeZet. who is
an honest-to-g goodness New Yorker.
He is one of the editors of 1.-THE
Forum" and is associated with sew
eral other publications, most of them
OF theatrical persuasion.
Latin American Acquisitions
Two Latin American ministers,
the late Don Ignacio CaldeTon of
Bolivia and the late Don joaquin
B. Calvo of Costa Rica. settled down
in Washington on retiring from the
diplomatic service and remained
here until they died. Both left
families which have been absorbed
into the civic and social life of the
Capital. Nine. Calvo is actively in
terested in various Catholic
charities. One of her daughters is
Mrs. John Galen Carter, a daugn-
ter-in-law of Mrs. Thomas H. Carter
and of the late Senator Carter.

The Dancing Glass, Washington g

or for some other reason-the
Dancing Class ceased 10 function
for some years. And s.ien 1t was
born again three or foar years ago,
with some of It's founders breathing
into 1t new life. 1t Is recalled that
Mrs. Morris Ernest Locke, wife of
Colonel Locke, was especially active
in it's recrudescence. She has been
living near indianapolis for the last
two winters. her husband having
been transferred to Fort BENJAMIN
Harrison.
Mrs. Joseph Letter has seemed to
be the leading spirit the last few
seasons. The meetings have all
been held at her house on Dupont
Circle. Mrs. Henry B. Spencer has
been another moving spirit of the
