RECITAL will be given Sun
Il day afternoon by Maria Car
Ill reras, pianist, at the Academy
Of Music under the direction Of the
Indianapolis Maennerchor.
Although her name is of Spanish
descent, Maria Carreras is italian
and was born in Rome. At the age
of 5 years she already gave signs of
unmistakable musical vocation and
typical pianistic talent. She remem-
bers with pride that kiss Franz List,
already very old, and then honorary
president of the Royal Academy of
Santa Cecilia, gave her when only 6
years old, granting her the first prize
at a concourse the municipality had
established for a free course at that
conservatory of music. The aureole
of glory that illuminated her little
head was prognostic and was a con-
secration of that splendid ascension
that brought her to the Parnasus Of
pianism of the present generation.
For fifteen years she pursued her
studies under the direction of Glow
ami Sgambati, and Sgambati himself
directed her first concert with the
Rome Philharmonic when she exc
cuted for the first time, the concerto
in G. minor of her famous master
once engaged her for a series of con-
dimir Safonoff, who heard her, at
Her success was sensational and Via .
certs in Russia with the Imperial So
ciety of Music under his own direc-
ton. Since that time, she has toured
almost continuously in nearly 200
cities in Germany, Russia, Scandi-
navia, Spain, Portugal, Italy and has
also appeared repeatedly in London
and Paris. Through her success in
Spain, she was called to South Amer
lea, where in the past three seasons
she gave PA concerts.
In Europe, Maria Carreras had the
honor to appear under the baton of
such distinguished conductors as Co
Tonne, Safonoff, Stavenhagen, Milin-
arski, Steinbach, LandOn Ronald,
Cajanus, Reznichek, Birnbaum, Oscar
Fried, Marinuzzi, Molinari. Chevil-
lard, Jehin, Schneevoigt, Sgambati,
Halvorsen and many other celebrities
at all the most important musical So
cieties.
She was invited by the car him
self. to play in Kieff, the only soloist
for the tenth anniversary of Anton
Rubenstein's death; she played a
Grieg Commemoration at the Nation
al Theater of Christina under the di-
rection of Halvorsen; she played at
many of the most important festivals
all over Europe, and in February,
1914, she was fourth at the four big
pianistic concerts that the Philhar-
monte of Warsaw organized in that
season. First came Paderewski, sec
ond Busoni, third Rosenthal and
fourth Maria Carreras, and her sue
cess in the eyes of the critics and
public was not inferior to that of her
illustrious colleagues.
Her first appearance in New York
on Jan. %, 1923, confirmed her world
reputation, and the leading New York
critics unanimously declared her to
be one of the outstanding pianistic
figures of the day.

Be Sure Your Initial Bid
Is hooper Cent
Sound.
Ry Milton C. Work

The pointer for today is:
Be sure that your initial bid is
100 per cent sound.
An initial bid-the original bid Of
Dealer or Second Hand-should be
as informatory as possible, because
upon 1t the whole bidding structure
of the partnership must stand. The
initial bidder should try, by his bid
or pass, clearly to picture the
thirteen cards he holds.
Two duties devolve upon the
initial bidder and they involve con-
comitant errors, both of which
should be avoided. When he holds
the requirements for an initial bid
(even the minimum, he should bid;
when his hand falls short of the
minimum (even when the shortage
is very slight he should pass. In.
Vulnerable bids and doubles. which
were amply justified by the part
ner's previous bidding, have cost
hundreds Of points, because the mi
tial bidder did not hold the cards
that his opening bid guaranteed,
anu AllllNliiIi dpiS bc'AllCN anu Aub-
bers have been tossed away, because
initial bidders have timidly re-
Trained from announcing their
strength.
An initial suit-bid generally shows
a five-card suit and two quick tricks.
at least one Of which is apt to be in
the suit named When it is made
with a four-card suit the strength
must be greater than when made
with five. In determining whether to
bid or pass initially with a flve-card
suit, very slight differences In the
holding should vary the decision
Ace King and three small, and eight
worthless cards divided between the
other three suits, furnishes the min
imum bidding requirement; but If It
were Ace-Queen and three small in
stead Of Ace-King, the bid should not
be made as the hand would be just
below the requirement.

Could We ExpIain2

We fought the Revolutionary War
for liberty and the war of 1912 for
a reason. We fought the war with
Mexico to establish a border and the
Civil War to prove that this was
a real Nation. We fought the war
with Spain to liberate oppressed
people and the war with Germany
for similar reasons.
There hasn't been a war in our
history but what we can explain
and justify with satisfaction.
Could we do as much If we got
into a war with Mexico over this
Nicaraguan trouble or her oil laws,
or any Of the other issues that have
been raised?

What Is InvOIved2

What kind of rights are involved
in this argument with Mexico? Are
they the kind that you think about
In connection with yourself, your
wife and family, or are they the kind
that you associate with board of
directors and corporate wealth?
And when It comes to a national
aspect of the case, what kind of
rights are at issue, especially for the
United States?
What has this Government to gain
by war or to lose through peace?
Where is its sovereignty being de-
MED, its privileges of trade and inter
course abridged, its security threat.

Rights

have no decisions about the ne
cessity Of upholding American
rights. about making the flag and
the citizenship Of this country re-
spected throughout the world.
But there are rights and rights,
some having to do with the great
universals, such as life and liberty,
while others have to do with special
privileges.
What kind of rights are these
that have popped up in this Mica
raguan brush? Are they such as
might injure you or me If we went
down there as citizens Of the United
States, or do they concern particu-
lar interests?

Is there a cure for bunions?

A pair of straight inner line, broad
shoes with low heels is perhaps the
best remedy. The joints may be
painted twice a day with the foi-
lowing lotions: Tincture of iodine, 2
drains; carbolic acid, drains; ely-
cerine, 2 drains. This should give
some relief.

CATTLE SHIPMENTS
TOP RECORD MARX

Cattle shipments from Montana
during 1925 were the greatest ever
known in the history of the state, &C
cording to E. A. Phillips, secretary
of the state livestock commission.
Shipments to every primary market
increased. his figures show, with a
total shipment of 5O4,472 head out
side the state and 6O,2SS to Montana
points, making a total of 564,71O fol-
the year.
Last years total shipments, the
heaviest up to that time, were 4O7,-
365 head.
Shipments Of horses totalled. 48,82e
head to outside markets, of which 90
per cent, Mr.. Phillips estimates, were
for slaughter. Shipments within the
state, exclusive of those to Butte were
4,763 head. Shipments to Butte
which Mn. Phillips thinks represent
the total slaughtered locally, were
1867 head.

Three MILLIONTH
CHEVROLET IS OUT

Marking the latest achievement in
its history, the Chevrolet Motor COM
pany announces the production of its
3,OO0.O0Oth car. The epoch-marking
model, which happened to be a coach,
was driven off the production line at
the Flint plant by w. S. Knudsen,
president of the firm. The first pas
senger was C. F. Barth, vice presi-
dent in charge of production.
Finished in St. James gray Duco
and ~fashionably striped in Pistache
green, the milestone car flashed off
the production line with scarcely
more formality than attended the de-
but of number ~3,OOO,OO1, which fol-
lowed nine seconds later.
Immediately after the final inspec-
tion, Mr.. Knudsen stepped on the
started and the 5000, OOOth car pur-
red away to give room to the long
line of sedans, coaches and roadsters,
tFat were moving up with clock-like
precision to the final inspection post
The 2~,OOO,OOOth model was built
after IA years Of production and the
3,O00,000th only IA months later, az
indication of the rapid growth Of the
company, which now has facilities tt
build 100000 units a year.
