WAGNER 0PER
ON THE AIR

There are two rather important
things happening on the wave
lengths this evening--or two things
OF rather more Importance than the
other Monday evening loud speaker
products. These are the production
OF Wagner's "L,ohengrin" by the
Cesare Sodero company from WEAF
and WRC and the presentation OF an
hour of the music Of Rudolf Friml
by an orchestra ana Gladys Rice and
Frank Mum from WIZ during the
usual light opera hour.
Lohengrin" has been done before
by the Eodero coTnpany-and very
well done for musical production
that runs three hours In the original
and must be cut to an hour for radio
presentation.
Wagner Il one Of the composers
only q brave man viii attempt to
condense because the very essence
OF Wagerian composition Ii the In.
ter-relation Of every single tone and
the continuity Of each musical
phrase az q part of q though. Any
cutting leaves'a scar that .is plainly
audible. Therefore one hour Of
"Lohengrln" means simply 81
sketchy presentation Of the high
points In the opera.
The prelude win be played. Of
course, complete. This is one of the
most impressive Of the Wagerian
overturea and one of the most deli.
cate. It tells the story OF the
angels bringing the Holy Grail ito
earth and OF their return to Heaven
Just that and only that. It Is
distinctly prelude and not an over
ture: Sodero can be depended upon
to do this in a way that 10 worth
hearing.
FRIML MELODIES
TO BE BROADCAST
Rudolf Friml has made place
that Ii all his own In the compo.
sition Of light opera and Of that
type OF subtle melodies that have
life and depth even though their
first impression may be of delicacy
and nghtness. The music sings
straight to the heart Of the listener
whether 1t Is part Of q musical
comedy, q light opera, q string
quartet or a simple song. Tonight
at $40 o'clock the WIZ light opera
hour will be devoted to both the
vocal and instrumental productions
Of Friml.
The United States Navy Band Or
chestra begins the WRC afternoon
at . o'clock with its weekly day

A special broadcast Of the eve
ming viii be the proceedings of the
mass meeting to be held at the
Washington Auditorium to discuss
the Mexican situation which WMAL

BY MARY MARSHALL.

TT seems like a large order-to be
perfectly dressed-but there il
an old saying about hitching
your chariot TO star, and if
you don't quite attain perfection
in this matter of dress you may as
well attempt it.
The busy housewife may protest
that on her limited income, with so
many things to do, tor dress perfectly
is out OF the question. Well, to be
dressed like a rich woman of fashion
would be out of the question-but
there is more than one standard of
perfection in this matter of dress now.
adays. The well dressed business
girl, for instance, is not the one who
by carefully skimping in the purchase
OF her everyday clothes can somehow
fool one on her Saturday off that she
is the daughter of millionaire
rather is she the girl who selects her
clothes for every occasion with the
greatest possible care.
When you have selected an attrac-
tive evening gown, don't imagine that
your task of being we'll dressed for
the evening is even half accomplished.
Shoes and stockings are immensely
mportant-details that simply cannot
be CLOSED over il you want to look
we'll. Better somehow manage with
last seasons frock and have money
enough for perfect shoes and stock
ings. Hair, face, hands, well fitting,
dainty underthings-these details at
tended to and your dress may be of
the simplest and your ornaments not
ut all expensive.
What woman in your set has the
Evening star., 1927-05-15

reputation of being almost perfectly
dressed in the evening-stop and
think The woman who always has
a new evening dress for every i'm
portant occasion? The woman whose
fingers gleam with diamonds and who
has two or three new evening wraps
a season? Probably not--unless she
also realizes that these things are in
a way unessential. Who was the best
dressed woman at the last party, any
way? Probably some slender enough
young woman whose hair-long or
short--was arranged with perfect
care, whose face and arms and shoul-
ders had been perfectly-but not at
all obviously-made up, whose shoes
were dainty, whose stockings were
right, whose hands were immaculate.
whether much or little manicured:
whose frock fitted well and was be-
coming in cut and color.
But-what sort of frock was it. any
way?
In one respect the task of dressing
well Is immeasurably simpler now
than it was a generation and more
:1o. Clothes themselves possess SO
much more of the quality we call
wearability. Once carefully chosen
made or selected to suit the bodily
proportions of the woman who has to
wear them-they may be put on with
no tight belts or close fitting collars
to keep in position, no long trains to
keep from dragging or going askew--
none of the countless little do-dads
that our mothers used to have to keep
In place in clothes Of another genera.

This platform, supported by ropes
or strong wires, is to be located over
the swimming hole in the creek. You
can perform all manner of fancy
dives, or lie and sun yourself upon it.
Being close to the water, it is ideal
for practice diving. because it is di-
rectly over deep water. Many diving
boards, when placed on the bank, do
not permit you to reach deep water
easily and an ill-judged dive may
mean bruise or a terrific "spank!"
when you strike the water fiat.
Select four trees, two on each side
of the stream. and of good size. Run
the wires from the upstream tree on
one side to the downstream tree on
the other. Then run the other wire
between the other two trees so they
will cross at the center.
Make the platform of boards / inch
thick, 6 inches wide and feet long.
Six or seven boards should be used
to give a width of three feet, and
cleats must be placed under the ends
to hold the boards together. Hold

down ruless concerning color selection.
One such book even has an elaborate
sort of table with complicated cross
readings, like a timetable, so that
any and every type of woman can find
after some difficulty, it is true-a
list Of supposedly becoming colors and
color combinations. But the most elab-
orateiy compiled chart of that sort
cannot take into consideration all the
elements that go to make up the color
quotient of any individual woman and
all the books on color harmonies are
not worth as much as a well hung
pier glass. The proof of the pudding
is still in the eating, and the proof of
the becomingncss Of any color or color
combination is in the image that
stands reflected before you as you
look into your looking glasses. Ac-
tual color blindness Is really the only
excuse for not taking upon yourself
the censorship of the colors you shall
wear.
More women commit errors in dress
because of a wrong assembling of
hues and shades than for any other
reason. So many women, you see,
might appear we'll above criticism

that gives us an air and feeling of
