his or her way to Salzburg. The

orchestras from all parts of
Europe. For a thousand years
Salzburg has been the home of

as so many famous people do
arrive there a week or so before
the music begins. There are pal

hotels, smart restaurants, club
like cafes, and daily performances
of operettas and plays in the
beautiful municipality owned and
run theater. There are daily mo-
tor coach trips to the Salzkam-
mergut and on the new Alpine
Tauern highway through wild sec
tions of mountains and glaciers
to lovely Zel-am-See, with its
beautiful shrine. Then there is a
motor highway to the summit OF
the Gaisberg, towering over 1000
feet into the sky.
OPEN AIR OPERAS
The Residenz square, with its
beautiful fountains, is gemlike.
Another fine square fronts the
cathedral, on the steps of which
the morality play "Everyman" Is
given every year during the festi-
val. Chairs and benches are
placed in the square for visitors
viewing the production which is
done by Max Reinhardt, who has
marvellous chateau set in a
mountain valley overlooking a
lake. There are performances,
too, in the Mozarteum, home Of
the international music founda-
tion, as well as opera given in the
oDen air at night. There are al.
ways visitors making the pilgrim
age to the house where Mozart
was born and where the tiny
Spinet on which the genius-child
tinkled out his compositions is
preserved.
An interesting trip is to the
archabbey of the Benedictine

foreign insurance agents write
approximately 80 per cent Of the

The order affects only those

No insurance is carried on YES

When Secretary Swanson ex,

Iment was entirely to their taste.
1t is practically hopeless!
When girls concentrated on
learning how to make pie and
wangle a chafing-dish or fashion
a patch-quilt, it was because that
was what men expected women to
do, and the ability to turn out a
good welsh-rarebit or a perfect
mince pie was a woman'S most
effective bait. In those days, men
did not demand that a woman
should be ornamental, or amusing
or inspiring. They wanted her
only to be useful and loveable,
and to make them comfortable.
But fashions in wives have
changed. And, nowadays, if girl
takes up tap-dancing instead Of
cooking, or goes in for high-diving
or aviation instead of quilting and
darning, it is because that is what
the men Of this day expect Of her.
A modern girl knows that if she
can do a tap-dance, drive a car,
play a good hand at bridge, be
swell hostess to her husbands
friends and dress as effectively as
a screen star, she will make a far
more satisfactory wife and find
the way to some mans heart
much more quickly than she could
by the old Stomach-route.
Being a wife, today, is a two
way job, not a sinecure. Because
a modern woman must be not only
useful, efficient and highly &C
complished, but ornamental and
interesting as well. The modern
man may like sympathy and
home cooking as much as his
father did: but he also wants a
running mate, who can balance a
budget, make a swell-looking
dance partner and play around
with him at his own games.
He may appreciate the fact that
a girl can make her own clothes
and turn out a tempting batch of
brown muffins. But it is the girl

MONUMENTS TO ART

A few years ago it did look as
If that grand old red-plush-gilt-
and-rococo shrine of music and
diamond tiaraS which is the
Metropolitan Opera House was
casualty Of the depression. Box
holders of ancient clans were
down to their last few millions
and many of them were said to
be ready to trade the old family
box for something more substan-
tial and negotiable. The wreck
er's pickax was poised and ready.
The blow never was struck.
The old Metropolitan has lived
through the lean years. The sea-
son opens brilliantly with dow
ayers, who first went there as
debs, still in the golden horse
show. There was a sellout for
the opening performance. Folks
are beginning to feel a bit rococo
and gilded on their own account
some of them-and that always
makes a quorum at the Met.
It's business as usual, with an
even heightened blaze of dia-
monds, an augmented battalion
of lorgnettes and bolder bravura,
both in the parterre and on the
stage. God help a man when
the last of his dreams is dead"
wrote some forgotten poet, and
so, with a world of treasured illu-
sion safe again, the underpln-
ningS of the tunelesS and factual
workaday world once more seem
sound and enduring.
INNER CIRCLE
1t is So years since the Metro
politan began to encroach on the
domain of the Academy of Music,
where many glorious songbirds
had held the stage in the years
between 1854 and 1883-Lillian
Nordica, Christine Nilsson, Mar
celia Sembrich. At that day, So
ciety was just beginning to take
definite form in New York. and
a box at the opera was the cachet
of membership in the inner circle.
But there weren't enough boxes
to go around-it was as simple as
that!
Hence, the Metropolitan, most
august arcanum of magnificent
art and eye-filling glitter back in
the age of decorum of Dundreary
whiskerS, hoop skirts and impos-
ing satin tournureS. ConsiderinT
the average feminine wheelbase
of these days, parking problems
must have been terrible Surely,
Sellout must mean a much
bigger gross now than it used to.
The old Met rode along hand
somely right through the era OF
the roaring parvenus, with barbed
wire or gypsum fortunes from
the West, through the war to end
war, and the champagne and
caviar years which were to end
poverty. It was these latter years
Of gorgeous fantasy which, oddly
enough, brought threat to the
Metropolitan perhaps more Seri.
GUS than the later depression
period.
Soaring land values and hlgher
taxation were requiring lot of
close figuring at the Metropolitan

growing more acute in the boom
years, and there was in the Metro
