ten minutes. And, ncongruous not, Mary Garden
always makes her mark"
No Offense
Concerning the passage in his book, Mr. Ewing con-
tinues:
II meant reprimand to Miss Garden. Her admirers
do not object to her singing homely ballads. She
afford to sing them It is endearing minor aspect
OF her that leads her to such songs and the most to
Grant musical snobs afford to be ndulgen when she
sings them. For artist of Miss Gardens stature to
not work both ways however. One hopes Kate Smith
wall not take to singing Debussy caprice.
when Mary Garden sings nconsequential songs she
can be pardoned for she has also sung better than
one else the best material of her Peleas, Louise
and Salome three epochal works of this century,
and she has made them all exclusively her AS Carl
Van Vechten has pointed out before is not Gardens
fault that few lyric works worthy of her talents have
been written in her lifetime If she has often resorted
to caprap is because few composers of her period
have been writing anything else.
''Mary Garden remains of the few really great
perennial news. The stars of the operate generation
just preceding hers-Melba, Eames, etc.-were what
call the great Representatives Most current opera
stars Representatives
No Disgrace
Some people deplore the appearance of Garden in
moving picture theater. From purely .Utopian
standpoint it may be deporabe. But in far from
ideal times acceptable And may we'll inquire
where else is there for Miss Garden to appear? The
Chicago Opera has vanished and her affiation with
other organization in this country for her to join She
could go abroad and stay there. But that would be
our loss Theoretically believe that bread is better
than half loaf, but actually make compromises. l
am glad for any brief furtve glimpse of Mary
No Protest
"Many Garden enthusiasts protest that if she cannot
be heard under ideal and appropriate conditions she
should retire But there only two valid reasons for
singer to retire: one, that she wants to quit and
relax; the other, that people longer want to hear
her Both these reasons invalid in Miss Gardens
case The theater was packed with people who wanted
to hear her. And present could imagine Miss
Garden indulging in relaxation.
$50 make protest against Mary Gardens appear

in such surroundings might have been effected in
junction with Carlo or Gary Cooper-Marene Diet

Ewing went to hear Mary Garden
at a theater and writes this report:

SCRAP BOOK
ON L|NDBERGh
Ely Resident Gets Prominent
Mention on Charles Lind
bergh Memorial.

Miss Elizabeth B. Raisky, in charge
of Girl Scouts in this city for the past
several years, was given a write-up in
the Duluth Evening Herald on her
work in commemoration of Charles A.
Lindbergh and his flight across the
ocean six years ago last Sunday. The
Herald said:
History of the achievements of Col
Charles A. Lindbergh, as it appeared
in newspapers and other periodicals, is
perpetuated in a scrap book prepared
and compiled by Miss Elizabeth B
Raisky, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. F. H
Raisky, 204 South Twenty-first avenue
east.
''The scrap book, which was made to
order, to fit full headline of news
paper, was begun when Col. Lindbergh
landed in Paris after making his his
toric flight across the Atlantic ocean
six years ago tomorrow.
1.-THE book includes many illustrations
which appeared in newspapers and
magazines throughout the country, as
well as complete articles which were
clipped from the periodicals.
"The events are placed in the book ac-
cording to the dates on which they oc-
CURED. Nothing was placed in the
book, however, until all the material
had been assembled up to the time OF
Lindbergh's tour of the states.
''The color scheme of the book-black
and gold-were chosen from those on
Col. Lindbergh's first gift upon his re-
turn home. He was given an auto
mobile, the appointments being in
black and gold, by the Franklin COM
pany. The paper was chosen for its
durability, being non-tearable, and the
paste for its lasting quality, according
to Miss Raisky. The pages are of q
loose leaf style so that more material
can be added if necessary.
''The book includes 100 pages, twenty
more than was originally planned.
''The history of the Lindbergh family
as it appeared in national magazine
will be included in the book, thus pro-
viding a record of four generations OF
the family.
Each of the hundreds of articles
and pictures which make up the book
were placed therein while Miss Raisky
stood. The book is so large that nc
work on it could be perfrmed while the
person was seated.
"It measures slightly larger than a
newspaper page.
Persons who have seen the book
|
cellent choice of material and on the
method used in compiling the various
information. The color scheme and the
arrangement of the clippings and pic
lures were commended, as was the
painstaking care with which the work
was performed. They declare the book
to be work of art"

"NOOnanettes"

(From the Baudette Region.)
The fishing season arrived Monday,
and now man can put on his old
clothes and look worse and feel better
than at any other time of the year.
Back in 1929 times ceased being what
they used to he, but indications point
to the darned old depression being just
about over. The silver lining is in
sight.
It's nice to have a little change
even if it is only in the weather.
Some folks think overhead expenses
are heavy when they are charged fifty
cents for haircuts.
One thing Baudette pastors can't
understand is why cold is always
worse on Sunday.
If you take long auto trip it's a safe
rule not to give a stranger a ride.
With your back in front of him you
are liable to be shot or belted over the
head.
From this distance it looks as though
the Legion convention in Baudette in
July will kick up lot of excitement
If your youngsters are loafing around
town late at night, the best thing to
do is to look after them yourselves in
stead of asking the authorities to do
so. You're welcome.
A fisherman tells of a trout being
killed by lightning just after he yanked
it out of the water. Three point two
didn't do that
Hogs are worth more on the hoof
these days but they're not worth much
behind steering wheel.
An English writer recently stated
that Americans use poor English. Some
of the Scotch they use is none too good
either.
The young folks are nothing to get
gray about. They'll turn out all right.
Didn't you?
When Democrat Office seekers think
of the good time being wasted before
they get appointments they let out
roars that would make that of a truck
seem effeminate. Have little patience,
boys, the pie is about to be passed out
The farmer who stays on his farm
will come out all right just as sure as
there is Swede in Minnesota. He is
taking much less of gamble than the
man looking for job in the city.
"a wife" said peeved Baudetter
Monday sis female person who can
think of a hundred things that would be
better for a man to do than to go
fishing"
Don't let your careleSsness bring
death to some home. Drive carefully
and save lives.
They are to start drilling again soon
at that oil hole in Rainy River, and
here's hoping that it will be dangerous
to light match within a mile of it.

Fishern,dn's Luck.

Last week we printed an item stating
that lizzie Sher with party had passed
through Ely after fishing trip to Lac
LaCroiX and other northern lakes.
The Hibbing Tribune told upon their
return of the biggest fish" that got
away and was almost caught by lizzie.
In the party with Mr.. Sher were Max
Edelstein, Joe Sonaglio and Charles
Kemer. Max told the story to the
Tribune as follows:
I'VE had been on the lake only half
an hour when lizzie hooked his biggest
one" and then proceeded to play with
him more than half an hour to tire him
out. Then he told me to put the net
under him. Well, he reeled that big
baby (and, believe me, because Izzy
will tell you the same thing, it was the
granddaddy of them alb right up to the
side of the boat. I went to put the net
under it and lizzie got excited and gave
the fish slack in the line. There was a
twang, like that of a busted fiddle
string, and Mr.. Biggest One was
headed for parts unknown. lizzie was
so mad he wouldn't talk to me the next
three days, except to cuss me- As if I
was to blame! 1t wouldn't have been
so bad if hadn't ended up by catching
the biggest fish that was caught and
displaying it in the Hibbing Hardware
store window. Well, he better admit it
was his own fault, or I'll start telling
the boys how we had to carry him
across some of those portages.

From the College Chronicle published

to the many friends of Miss Anne
Mertel. The Chronicle said:
Specimens of the handwriting of all
the members Of one of the last quarters
penmanship classes were sent to the
Worlds Fair and are to be exhibited
in the Hall of Science building.
These examples of both good and
poor writing were sent in the form of
a booklet. 1t contains a picture of
President George A. Selke, campus
scenes, the above mentioned specimens
and an honorary section which includes
sample paragraphs and pictures OF
students who have done exceptional
work in the handwriting classes. These
persons are: Bernice Peterson, Joyce
Love, Anne Mertel, Genevieve Wohlfort
and Floyd Arnold.

The Arrowhead is being given nation

Rail officials also look for further
