RADIO SUNDAY
Agnes Davis Will Be Presented
in Joint Concert With Ar.
mand Tokatyan

Young Agnes Davis, the Rocky
Mountain soprano whose golden
voice and perseverance carried her
to victory over $4,000 amateur
American singers In the national
radio addition recently, will be wei.
coined triumphantly into the cele-
brated circle Of radio artists Sunday
evening, January g, when she and
Armand Tokatyan, Metropolitan

This Is the goal toward which the

old when, wearing her Sunday
Dress" her brown hair in pigtails
and her blue eyes shining, she heard
q prima donna sing "Habanera"
from Carmen" watched the gay
figure fit across the stage and am
bitiously resolved, "Some day I'll do
that, too" Then her mother died.
Care Of her eight-year-old brother
consumed her after-school hours.
Her father thought school-teaching
might be better than singing for her.
But Agnes held fast to her vocal
ambition.
Coveted vocal lessons were costly,
but Miss Davis, having graduated
from the state teachers college,
taught school at Wellington. Colo
RADIO, did secretarial work il Denver,
and other tasks to &C 4uire funds.
Her vocal teacher rewarded her
by giving her solo part in Denver's
treble Clef" concert, and the young
dramatic soprano brought down the
house" with the joyousness Of her
singing. She scored another success
in the leading role Of "Chipeta" in
the outstanding musical pageant of
the pocky Mountain region last
spring.
Entering the national radio audi
ton, she won, first, the Colorado
state singing championship; next,
the championship Of the entire

I'm Glad for Life
By Elsie Robinson

have / been able To pad the hard
spots with pretty pIatitudes which
seem such comfort to others.
Virtue DOESN'T always triumph
in my experience. Honesty ISN'T
always the best policy. And God
MAY be in His heaven, but the
number doesn't always answer. In
short. this business of life seems
to me to be pretty much of
mess.
Yet I'm grateful for it.
I'm glad for the pain of it--for-
I have seen courage rise in an
swer to that pain. and one small
glimpse of that is worth all the
horror.
I'm glad for the cruelty OF it,
for against that bloody nightmare
have seen the gentle face OF
Love-and shall not forget.
+ am glad for it's conflict--its
difficulty-its terrific pressure.
For these things so often mask a
great and noble purpose-that
eager hunger OF life to be on its
way 10 greater things. L could
not have sensed that hunger il ]
had not felt the pressure. faced
the conflict.
SO ] come to this day badly
SCARED weary disillusioned--'
perhaps little bitter-but with
all my heart grateful.
I've had another year of life.
IT has been a tough grind. But
thank God for every day of 1t.
