into the interpretations Of each num-
Der, whether a simple song or diff
cult aria. She gave her audience a
rare pleasure from start to finish Of
the program.
The personal element enters greatly
in the singing of Miss Ponselle and
it is impossible to draw a line between
her ar. in the abstract and her unique
and interesting personality. AS true
to the standards Of fine musicianship
as are her interpretations, the strength
of her temperament and her individu-
ality overshadows the purely musical
side. There is nothing Intellectually
detached in Miss Ponselle's singing.
She throws her heart and soul and
all the resources of her marvellous
voice into every note she sings, creat-
ing an emotional atmosphere by the
warmth of her feeling even when voic-
ing the simplest sentiments. Among
the singers of today she stands as the
most colorful personality, the embodi-
ment of all the romantic ideas Of what
prima donna should be.
In two arias, the "Bel Raggio Lu-
singhier" from Rossini's "Semiramide"
and Lies Cartes" from Carmen" she
showed the full and extraordinary vo-
cal gift with which she is endowed.
In the first, the coloratura passages
were as fleetly executed and as pearl
like in their purity as any lyric voice
could ever attain. And Immediately
thereafter the drama of the famous
card scene, with its low notes reiter-
ating Garments inescapable destiny.
was given with such intensity that the
listener was held tense with the trag-
edy. For once the immensity of this
moment in the opera was fully appar-
ent and that by the low notes of a
soprano voice rather than the Gus
tomary contralto, directed by a tenn
perament which had visualized COM
pletely the superstitious reactions of
the gypsy to her fortune telling.
From this high dramatic point Miss
Ponselle passed with equal ease to the
lighter "Seguidilla" and to Paisiellos
gay "Chi vuol la Zingarella." Again
her great histrionic ability entered into
an exquisite rendition of Widor's
Contemplation" and Ernest Charles
moving When Have Sung My Songs"
Her full-throated voice is truly one
of the most magnificent of the day,
opulent, free and beautifully respon-

"SAILORS OF CATTARO"
DONE BY COLUMBIANS
Drama Of Naval Mutiny, Based
on History, Effectively
PLAYED by Amateurs,


IT FIGHT for an idea even if have
to die for it. What I did I had
to do, and If I had the chance, I
would do 1t again." Those words,
from the court-martial record of the
trial Of one of the men involved, tell
pretty accurately the spirit OF Sailors
Of Cattaro"-the spirit which drove
sailors to mutiny against autocratic
officers, to strike for peace-the spirit
which was created effectively last night
by the members Of the Columbia
Players.
Sailors of Cattaro" is a strong play.
1t minces no words and it packs
plenty of suspense and action as it
tells Of the Austrian sailors on the
Sankt Georg, who ran a red flag to the
mast because they didn't like beans
and wanted to go home to their wives
and kids. 1t is particularly effective
at least 1t was last night in the Column
bia production-in the first half Of
the second act, when the men who
have taken over the Sankt Georg, bot

action. with death staring them in the
tace But all of the time Sailors of
Cattaro" maintains interest at a high
pitch. OF course the language is a
bit blue on occasion, but then sailors
hardly would call spade cute little
dipper.
The members of the cast Of the
Columbia Players production of DR..
Friedrich VOLTS historically based
drama, get into the swing Of things
and perform in lively and spirited

OF another type entirely was the
young violinist, Orlando Barera, who
made his Washington debut yesterday
with immense success. Mr.. Barera
plays with such thoughtful care that
one has every opportunity to enjoy his
delicate artistry In every phrase. His
technique is exceptionally clean cut,
both of the bow arm and fingers, and
his tone, while not large, is warm and
expressive. He excels in well-planned
phrasing and his dynamic effects are
accomplished with the proper amount
of precision.
His programmed numbers did not
allow of an opinion as to his ability In
the more exacting works of the violin
literature, but in the treatment of mel

fine mastery Debussy's la File Aux

Grain Yields Jump
By New Treatment

Increase in grain yields by so per
cent in fields infested by wild radish
or mustard is reported by the Uni
versity of California, college of agri-
culture, in a bulletin written by w.
E. Hall, associate in the experiment
station, and o. C. French, instructor
in agricultural engineering.
For a number of years Sulfuric
acid has been used in controlling an
nual weeds but the lack of suitable
equipment for applying it has re-
tarded its use. French has worked
out a plan for its use which Ball has
demonstrated throughout the state
with excellent results. He estimates
that half of the 1,475,000 acres of
small grain grown in the state are
infested with weeds which may be
controlled by sulfuric acid.
According to experimental results,
50 per cent of the mustard and wild
radish in wheat fields can be con-
trolled. Grain sprayed with sulfuric
acid, it is said, seldom lodges. Ap-
plication cost is So per acre. The
bulletin describes equipment, man.
ner of application and methods to bt

who were operating in good faith in
interstate of foreign commerce on

cedure is but little understood, and
the visit of Mccoy will do much
to clarity the situation.
