the ingredients of professional success.

two classical numbers-one, Handel's
"Dank sci dir, Herr" of the German
school. and Cesti's "E dove t'aggiri," of
the ttalian-could be imagined, his
magnificent breath control and per-
fectly poised voice spinning out the
beautiful phrases with simplicity and
ease. These two numbers, together with
Strauss 'Zueignung," are part Of MIR.
Thomas concert repertoire arranged for
orchestra and yesterday was their sec
ond public hearing, the first being last
Saturday in Minneapolis. The full.
noble orchestral background added
greatly to the character of the two
classics. but lack of the elasticity which
the piano would have given interfered
with the proper color for Strauss
"zueignung' 1t is not song that can
be as maIestically sung as the others,
and the vibrant. alive tone of Mr..
Thomas voice could have imbued 1t
with the pulsing quality 1t needs had he
been permitted to expand the phrasing
somewhat.
The applause which followed this
group was SO sincere and prolonged that
only an encore could content the au-
dience and Mr.. Thomas satisfied the
entreaty by singing the favorite Tam
hauser aria, %. due mein holder
Abendstern." Departing from the more
formal style of the classics, he warmed
the famous air with sentiment. devel-
oping it with poetical insight and feel
ing. In the dramatic and bitter "Credo"
from Verdis "Otello' he broadened his
style, giving 1t powerful and convinc-
ing Interpretation. However, it was Mr..
Thomas mastery of cantabile that
pleased most, and when he added the
aria from 'Traviata," in which the
father pleads from his heart with Vio-
letta to release his son, he could have
chosen nothing better to satisfy the au-
dience and to again display the COM
plete COORDINATION of technique and
musical feeling which he possesses.
1t is because this coordination is
so soundly grounded that one wonders
why that slight sliding under of the
tone in sustained phrases which now
and then was apparent and the sliding
up on the tones attack could not be
eradicated before it has become a habit
and so spoil some of the finest bel canto
to be heard on the concert stage today
Such small fault. yet serious blem-

NEW YORK, November 3.-The kind

warm may be widely worn soon by her
modern daughters, through a discovery
announced to the United States Insti-
tute for Textile Research yesterday.
This wool is kemp" which textile
manufacturers have regarded as dead

not take dyes well. Discovery that it is
not dead, but throw back" to primi-
tive sheep, and that it can be dyed
beautifully was made at Massachusetts
Institute Of Technology.
Primitive sheep of the cave woman's
epoch had two coats of wool. One was
inner fleece the other an outer coat of
hairs highly resistant to cold. When
maN began to manufacture wooden
goods this outer coat would not dye well,

It Is exceedingly unfortunate for the General and
his big boss Roosevelt that the United States Depart
