THE OPERA TENOR

THE OPERA TENOR
 By Katherine W. Coler The Opera Tenor is handsomely
 paid
 And deserves every cent he may
 earn. Because, if he wishes to master his trade,
 There are so many tricks he must learn. He must know how to dance and to
 fence and to ride. He must know how 10 groan and
 faint. He must know how 10 WOO or to
 murder a bride, And 10 play the guitar and to
 paint. Tn "Tosca" they shoot him in front
 Of a wall
 And. although dummy bullets arc
 used. Cnless he has practiccd the right way to fall He's sure to get very much bruised. In "cavallaria" hes stabbed with a knife.
 A process he does not survive; In Samson he's thankful to take
 his own life, In Aida" he's buried alive.

Facts and dEuncies

Crime will decrease when the good people begin to fight criminals instead of one another. Marriage might last longer If the courtsfip wasn't cut short to get ready in time for June. Developing | people means teaching them new wants and new
 reasons to be discontented and un- happy.
 Business Is little slack, and the only two behind with their work are Ford and the fool killer. Of course Tunney's interest in Shakespeare is pose. Being q
 prize fighter doesn't make him un- like other people.

THEIR LETTERS

Dear Nom: It's interesting how
attached you can get to people with
whom you have worked, and how
you hate to leave them.
I was scarcely at Nine. Elise's
establishment more than a month,
and yet I felt as much part of the
place as if I had been there for
years.
And the last few days, while set
ting up the apartment and getting
ready to go out to the shore-we
leave tomorrow morning. actually
have wished I were back. l keep
wondering about Helen's latest con-
quests, and I miss the manicurist
who used to retail all the gossip
Of the place every morning as she
buffed up my nails and massaged
my hands.
miss all the amusing things
that happened-the people who
came in with no intention of buy
ing. those who tried to get in &c
copy the styles and all the cele-
brities and theatrical folk who used
to be a part of the day.
And I miss the ridiculous and
futile husband of Nine. Elise, who
always tried to act important, and
who was as out of place there as a
flapper at prayer meeting.
Before I left, Nine. Elise made
me some marvellous prices on some
of the clothes I liked particularly
and I have added to my wardrobe
in q high, wide and handsome man
ner. If I were the daughter of a
millionaire, I couldn't buy nicer
clothes.
Jane Smith has left the shop too.
and is sailing for Europe on Sat-
urday. We bacame the best or
friends and I feel she was more
than worth all the rest of the eX-
perience I gained. incidentally, I
was able to introduce Alan to her
rich pater and he took quite q
fancy to my husband, so that my
spree at working may really dc
more for Alan, in material way
than 1t did for me.
I have told Alan about everything
foolish or otherwise that I ever did
except my most recent Irritation
with Brother Shelton-I don't know
why I avoid it. Perhaps should
before we go TO Beechhurst.
What have you decided to dc
about the antique shop-are you
still a candidate? Now to fill my
wardrobe trunk and prepare to be
a lady Of leisure. Yours,
MARYE.

ton frocks. There is a GOODNESS about
them that, with their tubable quail
ity, makes them especially appealing
to the well-groomed woman.
Reflect Fashion
Cotton frocks of a few years ago
were just the most practical things
on earth. Simplicity was their key
note. This is changed now. The
cotton frocks take all the latest
fashion notes into consideration.
Tiers, boleros, f1uffy-ruffles, berthas,
uneven hens and so on appear in
the better class of cotton things.
I show today three new modes.
The little one-piece frock of my own
creation is like a bit of summer sky
in its periwinkle blueneSS. 1t is a
novelty, open mesh material. 1t
embodies several new style features
IN its mode. There is the wide neck
line, with shoulder fullness, the
marked waistline and a double
pocket on one side that is decora-
tive.
Hand scallops and big pearl but
tons fasten the front. A kick pleat
gives the skirt fullness. A large
white ballibuntl hat, with black
velvet banding and edging, tops it.
Linen and Wolfe
Polka dotted linen and voile fash
ion the Chanel ensemble shown to-
day. 1t is vivid green and white.
The frock is one piece, with deep
pleated ruffles forming the skirt.
Like most summer suits fashioned
of cotton, the voile dress is sleeve
less. The box coat is made of linen,
with a plain white linen tailored
collar and cuffs.
With this a hat from Rebeaux is
Of rance straw. with a fancy crown
and a simple banding of green.
Typical of Patou is a brown and
white printed linen frock with
pleated ruff1es on the skirt and
sleeves-those on the skirt jaboting
gracefully down the side and falling
below the hem. The hat>worn with
it is one Of my own creations of
natural Bankok straw trimmed with
beige ribbon velvet.

makes ownership possible in about
eight years and six months.

1ngs. The furnishings we're dis
tributed as follows: kitchen, $l15.5o.
