the Summer. Miss Garden, undoubt-
edly the greatest singing actress OF her
time. will teach stage department and
dramatic song and opera for six weeks,
beginning June "a. The small but up
to-date theater in the college will be
used as a laboratory Of musical and
dramatic talent, where Miss Garden
will train different casts in every nu-
ance of operate art and will herself
demonstrate the manner in which it
should be done. The repertoire will
include Faust" "Tosca," Carmen"
.'Thais." "Pelleas ct Melisande," Love
of Three Kings" Louise" and other
operas in which Miss Gardens inter-
probation has never been equaled.
When Miss Garden made her con-
tract with the college, she stipulated
that the tuition for her classes should
be within the reach of students OF all
walks of life. There will be three les
sons week of three hours duration.
A scholarship will be awarded in a
competitive examination at the open-
ing of the term.
Isidor Philipp, celebrated French
pedagogue, professor of piano at the
Paris Conservatoire, will return to
America this year to resume his mas
ter classes in New York and Boston
which proved so successful last SUM-
mer. The classes will be held from
May 20 to July 10 at Aeolian Hall,
New York, and Felix Fox School. Bos-
ton. Mr.. Philipp is one of the most
progressive Of French artists cham
pioning the cause of modern compos-
ers besides influencing the growth of
piano technique by the evolution of
constructive theories. His classes last
Summer we're attended by students
from 90 States.
With the idea of making the
younger generation acquainted with
the works of contemporary American
composers prize competition has been
offered by the educational publishers,
CHM g. Co., for songs by Americans
for youths of school age. The first
prize will be $500. the second and
third $500 each and the fourth. fifth
and sixth, 500 each. Only native or
naturalized Americans can compete.
Very laudable is the statement given
out by the editorial department of the
firm, which says: Young people
should not complete their musical
education in the schools with the feel
ing that all good music was composed
by some one who lived long ago and
in foreign land. The students in
our schools should have an oppor-
tunity of singing songs which con-
temporary American composers have
written for them and which are Just
as representative Of their best thought
as those which they write for adult
performers We believe the time has
come for the American composer to
write for young people just as artistic
ally and spontaneously as he prepares
songs for concert audience. There
has been tendency to write down
for public school music with the feel
ing, perhaps, that just any kind of
material is good enough for the basis
Of music education in the schools. We
are instituting this prize award with
the hope that the outcome will bring
fine new and vital music to the young
people of the country"

to review" Mr. Lawrence explains.
THE problem is to determine liability
for payment of internal liquor reve-
nue-or true taxes on beer, wine and
whisky involved. These are civil cases.
Since repeal. no criminal liability can
be asserted il. prohibition cases"
That means the violators must pay
up, in cash; but they do not neces-
sarily have to spend their time in the
jail houses.
While many months have gone BY
the boards since prohibition was
stricken from the books, those who
offended under that law are still la
ble-and Uncle Sam means TO get
them for any civil violations.
BEFORE long the taxes and pen
alties unit of the Department OF
Justice hopes to add another million
dollars to the sum already collected.
As the principal collector states,
These debts are due the Govern
ment, regardless of repeal, and the
Government needs this revenue"
attorney General Cummings is de-
termined to make all tax evaders pay
the Government what is justly due
it, and that is all" said Mr.. Law
renee. I'VE are exceedingly careful.

assert liability in such cases as these

dence of it,
Bootleggers-from Al Capone down
to the Man in the Green Hat"-got
theirs while the getting was good.
Uncle Sam is now out on the war
path to settle his own account with
these gentry. He has the names Of
thousands of them who must come
to book.
That is the Job allotted to Joseph
Lawrence, who is a fellow townsman
/ of Attorney General Cummings and
a personal friend of President Roose-
welt. In Stamford, Conn, Mr.. Law
renee was once vice president Of the
Board of Education. Also, he was
at one time a member of the Nut
meg State Legislature.
Now, in Washington, Mr.. Lawrence
has in his possession enough material
to provide adventure stories for all
the writers who flood the pulp market
with romantic tales of realism built
! around the inevitable chase of bandits
! by detectives and fly cops.

the vendors of alcoholic beverages to
aim their product at the makers of
soups, fruit concoctions and pastries
such as mince pies.
To make sure that the pie man and
not the pie-eyed man got the alcohol.
most of the alcohol sold during the
prohibition period ~was denatured.
This was to render it less susceptible
to redistillation for beverage purposes.
Under that old set-up, wholesale
liquor dealers and wholesale druggists
needed permits, as did the retail drug
gists who had to sell whiskies and
wines to physicians and chemists and
otherEin less than five-gallon lots.
doctors also had to get permits
- in order to prescribe whisky for
patients. The doctors usually got
what they wanted. though there was
a restriction as to the number Of pre-
scriptions issued. Also, some States
had laws which were in conflict with
the practice of prescribing potent por-
tions for the palsied.
As a rule, most of these persons
entitled to permits were honorable.
At least they were listed as good citi-
zens up to the time Of prohibition.
Then came the inroads of dishonor
into their ranks. Forged or counter
felt prescriptions and permits made
their way into American life. Some
doctors found they could make more
money out OF selling prescriptions than
they could from treating cancer. The
manufacturers got into the game. Men
who made phony 81 bills and $40 bills
turned their attention to the liquor
prescriptions and permits.
As Administrator Lawrence puts 1t
ut was q common occurrence for GER
tain manufacturers and distillers tt
deliver intoxicants on forged or coun-
terfeit permits. Hundreds of drug
gists throughout the country. in thou
sands of instances, sold medicina
whisky on counterfeit prescriptions
unwittingly and otherwise. This became
troublesome problem to the Govern
ment. It required the changing o1
size, color and texture Of prescription
and permit paper from time to time
The prescription forms were first is

Next came better paper with a dis
