self has been waging a one
woman battle for years. When
Marion Talley achieved the
Metropolitan Opera Company,
her entire native State sent up
a cheer which was heard from
the Atlantic to the Pacific.
Scores of Kansans chartered
special cars to come to New York
to her debut: no American singer
in history ever had such a send
off as was accorded the young
Kansan. And along with that
insistAnt booming OF home tai
ent came a new interest in all ma
tive ability, and the way was
opened at last for followers in
the Marion Taliey trail.
There was no such "open-ses-

it wasn't so very long ago. First

heart to do it. She was proud OF
her family name and fought val
iantly to keep it. But it wouldn't
go, there was no place in the
opera programs at the time Of her
debut for any but European
names.
Her first appearance in opera
in America, an occasion which
today would have been boasted
and commended as signal
achievement for a young Ameri-
can girl. passed with approving
comment but no stir. There was
no delegation present from her
home town, Richmond, Va In
fact, in no way was 1t possible
to guess that very young Ameri-
can prima donna had arrived"
Indeed for years comparatively
few of her admiring public knew
what nationality she was. Fitziu
was a battling name to catalogue.
With all due reverence and re-
spect, Miss Fitziu says THANK

First Time Here

One solid season in New York
was the record for "They Knew
What They Wanted" which the
President Players offer for the
new week beginning Monday
night. Then the piece began
touring what is known as the
Subway Circuit, comprised OF
towns in New Jersey and New
York's environs. The first week
it was on tour the play was
awarded the Pulitzer prize for
1924. Hard luck" said the
Guild producers, for they could
not recall the play from its road
bookings to capitalize the new
impetus.

NORTHERN LIGHTS

The month of May at Unalakeet, north of Nome, was unprecedently cold with ice blocking the river mouth and lining the coast. The natives took advantage of the ice to go seal hunt ing. The catch was quite large.
 On June 2, practically all the men in the village of Unalakeet went out to the ice to hunt walrus. The fog closed about them causing the watch CTS on shore much anxiety. The soli- citious women and children rang the school bell until the fog lifted after which the boats were sighted towing in three walrus. The hunters report ed that they had seen hundreds of walrus but would have been unable to tow many home through the treach- erous ice.
 There are 4s gardens in Unalakeet this year, which is an increase Of 50 per cent over last year. The teacher and missionary are planting an ex- pertinent garden across the river. If the experiment proves successful, the natives will probably be inspired to plant there next year.
 Albert Wilson, aged 21, who left Ketchikan two weeks ago for a prospecting trip in the Unuk river country, was drowned Friday in the Unuk river, his partner Nicolai Lar sen, reported to the United States marshal's office
 Isaac T. Leland, 36, employed as engineer at the Tokeen marble quarries for the past two years, died in the general hospital at Ketchikan last week shortly after he had been brought to Ketchikan with acute ap- pendicitis.
 Chas. Meegan, the Bluff mining man, was a visitor to Nome during May. MT. Meegan and partners have been developing their quartz property during the past winter, and hoisted over 100 tons Of ore which will be milled as soon as sufficient water can be obtained.
 Louis Stadie, former prominent business man of Nome was suffering from a series of light paralytic at- Jacks, according to a recent report published in the Nome Nugget. He and Mrs. Stadie are the owners Of a pigeon ranch in the San Fernando Valley a few miles from Los An geles and were doing a splendid business. Bob Park, a pioneer bus mess man Of Nome is also suffering from mild form of paralysis agitaus or creeping palsey. He and Mrs. Park live at Rosewood, a Los An geles suburb.
