tie, the Wartburg, casts its shadow.
There live the Landgrave of Thur
ingia, his niece. the sanity Eliza
beth; there he had lived and had
won the love of Elizabeth before
Venus had caught him in her net.
A shepherd boy Is piping to his
flock. A band of pilgrims passes
on its way to Rome. He would join
them, when there comes a hunting
party, the Landgrave, his friend
Wolfram and other minstrels, who
welcome him back and would have
him accompany them to the Wart-
burg where is to be held contest
of song.
How Tannhauser Wins Redemption
Refusing at first he is persuaded
to go when Wolfram tells him that
Elizabeth still longs for his return.
In the second act occurs the Song
Contest in which Wolfram sings
Of love-spiritual love. This is too
much for Tannhauser. He hears the
call of Venus. His madness returns
and Selling his harp he bursts into
wild song of sensual love, the love
which only one who has been with
Venus can understand.
The assembly breaks up In con-
fusion. The ladies retreat In hor-
ror. The mobiles would kill him on
the spot. Elizabeth pleads for him
and wins his life on his promise
to accompany the pilgrims to Rome
and there seek pardon from the
Pope.

PRODUCTION OF
|. FORDS INCREASE
DURING JANUARY
SURVEY SHOWS LARGEST
PRODUCTION FOR MONTH
SINCE 1880 AND GREATEST
VOLUME SINCE 1892

Ford production in the United
States in January totalled 57,575
units. it was announced recently
at the home offices of the Ford
Motor Company. The total was
the largest January production
since 1880 and the greatest volume
in any month since June, 1882.
Ford's January payroll in the i'm
mediate Detroit area totalled So
100000.
Actual production in January
was 1921 units in excess of the
production originally scheduled
for the month. This represents a
% percent increase over the first
schedule. All of the increase, it
was said, was required to meet adj
ditional orders from dealers be-
yond original commitments. The
demands from dealers following
the presentation of the new Ford
V-S car for 1884 two months ago
has exceeded even the most op-
tiniistic estimates, it was reported.
Ford VS. cylinder production
set an all-time record for the in
sdustry, the months total being 54,-
03e passenger cars, commercial
ears and trucks. The trend to the
V-s cylinder units in Ford produc-
ton has been striking since the
announcement of the VS. cylinder
engine two years ago.
As an index to the public ae-
ceptance of the Ford VS. for 1884
are official figures, just revealed
on January retail automobile sales
in Detroit Wayne County. in which
the new Ford VS. accounts for
5S.4 percent Of all car sales made
during the past month in this
area. The new Ford Va account
ed for 1,606 of the 2,74S total de-
liveries on all makes Of cars dur
ing January, with total Of 434

Metropolitan Presents Wag.
uer's Masterpiece With
Notable Cast in Sat-
urday's Matinee
Told BY
LAURTTZ MELCHIOR

THE title-r6le of Wagner's opera
"Tannhauser' which I am sing
ing this Saturday afternoon in the
broadcast by the Metropolitan OPP
era Association, while musically one
Of the greatest in operate litera-
eure, dramatically is very difficult
and not altogether grateful. An art
tst, particularly tenor, naturally
wants to get a sympathetic re-
Spouse from his audience. It Is
something he can sense immediate
~ and It is difficult to do ones best
without 1t.
But in 'sTannhauser' the hero of
the opera must wait until the last
act before he feels this, when as a
broken and despairing man he re-
turns from Rome, doomed by the
Pope, as he thinks, to eternal per-
dition, and in desperation determin-
ed to return to Venus who had got
him into all this trouble.
Then he wins the sympathy OF
the audience. In the first two acts
he is a neurotic. perhaps mailman,
fuctuating constantly between sens
ual delights and spiritual aspira-
tons. The artist who interprets
him must portray a man in the
hands of forces greater than him
self which now cast him down, now
upiift him. He is a battlefield be-
tween desires of the flesh and as
pirations of the soul On one side
is Venus. the goddess of love, on
the other Elizabeth, the pure wo-
man who ultimately is to redeem
him.
Plot Taken From Old Legends
'Tannhausers is q great master
piece, a notable tragedy built upon
lines almost Greek in their breadth.
simplicity and symmetry. As in
most Of his operas Wagner went
for his plot to old legends and folk
tales.

The Holy Father denies his plea.
His sin Is mortal and he has as
much chance of salvation as his
pilgrims staff has to grow green
leaves. He comes back, despairing,
broken man, in his desperation de-
termined to seek again Venus in
her grotto.
Elizabeth is dead. She had waited
at the cross roads to see If he was
with the returning pilgrims. He
was not with them and she had
gone to the castle to die. He tells
his experience to Wolfram and just
as he is about TO give himself again

Paris Version To BE Used
The opera was first produced in
Dresden in 1S45 and the music is
characteristic of the Wagner of
that period, except in the Venus
burg scene which Wagner rewrote
and added to for the Paris produc-
ton in 1861. In this the gorgeous
Bacchanale and most Of the other
music is that Of the Wagner who
wrote Tristan und Isolde"
The Paris version will be used
in this performance and in 1t the
famous overture runs directly, with
out pause, into the Venusberg mus
ic, the Bacchanale and the long
scene between Venus and Tam
hauser. In the second scene of the
first act we hear the Shepherds
song, the first pilgrims chorus and
the fine male ensemble which brings
1t to an end.
The second act opens with Eliza
beth's joyous greeting to the hall
which Is so soon again to see the
beloved minstrel; then come the
duo between. Elizabeth and Tam
hauser, the entrance of the MOBILES
Familiarity known as the Tam
hauser March" - the contest Of
song and the long and magnificent
ensemble which closes the act.
In the last act there are the beau-
fifuI orchestral introduction, the
second pilgrims chorus, Elizabeth's
prayer, Wolfram's song to the Eve
ming Star and the thrilling MARIA
tive Of the returned hero.
In this Saturdays performance In
which I am singing the titie-role,
Iotte lehman will sing Elizabeth:
Maria lOIszewska, Venus: Friedrich
Schorr, Wolfram; Ludwig Hof-
mann, the L.andgrave. Others In the
cast viii be Editha Fleischer,

LUCKY PIECES DISTRIBUTED BY
UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD

To commemorate the completion
of the new high-speed, light weight,
streamlined Union Pacific passenger
train, the Union Pacific lucky
piece" has been designed. The first
of these to be made are beng sent
to American editors. These lucky
pieces are made of aluminium alloy,
the same material of which the new
Union Pacific train is built-as
strong as steel of the same dimen-
sions but only one-third the weight.
They are about the size of half
dollar.
The Union Pacific is deeply ap-
preciative of the interest which has
been shown by publishers, editors
and writer's in the development and
construction of this train. IFS COM
pletion in January marks an epoch
in transportation history. The
progress of the experiments which
are to be carried on will be followed
with keen interest by roilroaG execu-
tives all over the world.
A total of 1000, 900 of these lucky
pieces have been made. These will
be- given school children and to Wis
itors to the train on its exhibition
tour.
1t may be interesting to know
that it took five tons-1O,0O0
pounds-of aluminium alloy to
make the million lucky pieces, one
of which we have received and for
which we return our thanks.
