Marian Anderson Is
Greeted By Crowds
As World Artist

BY Airline D. English
A new Marian Anderson greet
ed us wednesday evening as we
crowded into the Metropolitan
Theatre to hear again one OF the
worlds greatest artists. When
Miss Anderson was here a few
years ago with the Symphony
Under tire Stars she was quite a
girl. but still a great singer. To-
day II is acclaimed that here Is
"A voice that ranks with the first
OF Ire world" mo n can listen
to Miss Anderson" says another
critic, without realizing that one
is in the presence Of an artist of
extraordinary devotion. intensity,
and enlightenment.
During the intermission and af-
ter the recital, I talked with a
few Of our local musicians. and
though they do not presume to be
critics, their comments are inter
esting.
Says L. /. McGruder, formerly
with the great Blind Boon, now a
teacher of piano and voice, "Tos-
canini, the celebrated conducted Of
Grand Opera at the Metropolitan
Theatre in New York, and the IA
nous Grand Opera Of Ia Scala at
Milan, Italy, was right when he
said that Marian Anderson pos
sesses a voice that Is only given
once in a hundred years A pro-
gram so difficult and exacting is
seldom sung by an artist. She is
indeed mistress Of all she surveys
LeEtta Sanders King, an accom-
PIANIST and teacher Of piano, said,
Although her program appeals
primarily to musicians, everyone
can appreciate the tone quality Of
her voice. Only one inspired could
have sung the scandinavian and
Norwegian numbers with such
deep feeling. She was doubly for
tunate to have an accompanist
who understands the mood Of the
foreign peoples to support her
with fine sympathy His tech
nique was utterly flawless,"
Josephine Casmon, teacher of
piano and choral director, The
wide range and rich beauty of her
voice with a charming personality
give Marian Anderson a foremost
place among the worlds leading
artists"
S. c. Valley, concert baritone,
THE beauty of her voice fills the
soul. The pathos and artistic fit
mes in her understanding Schu-
bert's Ave Maria" and Roland
Hayes Lord I Can't Stay Away
moves me to wonder what music
and what art have the Gods pre-
pared for the saints above"
Alberta Walker, ~contralto, said,
Marian Anderson no longer can
be claimed by any one race; she
belongs to the royalty of art. She
is a queen in appearance and a
queen of song"
Sadie McIver, though not a mu-
stefan, heads the local chapter OF
Alpha Kappa AlLha, a national
sorority of which Miss Anderson
is also a member, was soaring on
ethereal waves owe the singers
rendition Of Schubert's Ave Ma
ria" and John Payne's "Crucifix-
IAN"
Marian Anderson was an inn
mense success and the ace Is
proud to do her honor. Though
she has the world at her feet, the
worlds greatest c~ontralto remains
the same sweet girl she was on
her last visit to Seattle when she
stopped at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Howard D. Brown. Her first
inquiry as she greeted Mrs. James
A. Roston with a kiss, vas How
is Aunt Sarah (Mrs. Brown? ?"
Mrs. Brown was unable TO attend

Receipt yesterday of the telling of the opening of the bids the proposed Federal Building for Nome brought brighter hopes that the building would be under construction this summer following a long winter efforts to push the proposal to final de- termination
 When bids were again called for this spring on a concrete building it discovered that they en- rely too high under the allotment of S425OO made available through the Treasury Department.
 The Northwestern Alaska Chamber of Commerce, acting with unusual speed agreed with suggestions from Delegate Anthony J. Dmond that specifications be changed to bring the building within the range of the allotment The Chamber wired the Delegate asking him to institute measures for modification of plans that bids could be called for and possibly accepted in time for early dispatch of supplies to Nome to insure commencement of construction this summer.
 In accordance with the Chambers wishes, the Dele gate successful in securing the necessary changes and new bids called for Yesterdays bids have yet to be examined and the award to be made but the indications that this time the plan will be successful, favorable than ever before. The lowest bid of S352O0O still allows margin of $730 900 for furnish ing the new building, and looking forward anx- iously to the that the award has been made and the time when construction supplies will reach Nome

A GLANCE at the masses Of
n abelia just beginning to bloom
~ in the public parks brings
a to mind the fact that the
Summer season is not without floral
beauties, despite the fact that the
gorgeous Spring display has now
passed. The abelia is not striking,
but its capacity for keeping contin-
uously in bloom from late June to
November commends it, and the red
dish green foliage adds to general
attractiveness. The abelia is easily
grown. needing only the general care
given all shrubs and is very free from
insect and plant disease enemies.
Another Summer shrub that COM
mands even greater attention than
the abelia Is the Grape myrtle, also
native Of Asia. However, Grape
myrtle Is scarcely hardy in this lati-
tude and occasionally causes the home
owner keen disappointment by killing
back to the soil line. The flowers,
ranging from white to dark red
through wide variations Of pink, are
extremely attractive. Like the abelia,
the Towering period is long, lasting
several weeks. Just why it Is that
most Of the Summer Towering shrubs
are long blooming is not known, but
it appears to be 3 fact and may be
associated with length Of day adapta-
ton or some such phenomenon. The
Grape myrtle Is easily propagated from
seeds. but. unfortunately, does not
come true to parental color. The
plants bloom while very young and 1t
is possible to select desired colors in
the nursery. In the South Grape
mrytfe Is very much at home and is
very popular.
Another Summer plant is the COM
mon rose Of Sharon or Althaea, q
beautiful shrub but somewhat un-
esteemed because of its great abun-
dance and many poor seedlings. It
blooms over long period OF Summer.
There are double and also single
f1owered varieties and some OF the
former are very beautiful. Once in
q while, one sees the rose Of Sharon
used as a hedge plant and it seems to
endure severe pruning very success
fully. The rose Of Sharon Is related
to the true Althaeas, such as marsh
mallow and hollyhock, but belongs
to a different genus, Hibiscus
When one considers Summer bloom
ing lilies, the perennial phlox. the
ANIMALS, the Towering vines, such as
clematis, and the shrubs discussed
above, it is possible to conceive Of
fine Summer garden, one that can
prove a constant delight to its owner

Garden Notes.
Rhizome rot OF iris has been and
still is taking heavy toll OF this flne
garden group. Considerable Of the de-
cay Is traceable to the cut flower
stalks. Infection takes place almost
altogether through wounds Of various
sorts, the most serious being those
made by the iris borer. The soft rot
results in viscous, foul-smelling resi-
due that is unmistakable. Theoreti-
cally, control consists Of lifting the
clumps and cutting away all diseased
tissue and after dipping in a Ito
1000 corrosive sublimate solution, re-
planting in freshly prepared soil.
Practically, some measure Of control
may be secured by picking OF all
diseased and dead leaves, and trim
ming OF some of the dropping leaves
so as to admit sunlight and air. Sun
light and dryness combine to greatly
reduce the losses from rhizome rot.
Hydrangeas have done very nicely
this Spring and what a striking ar
ray OF colors, pure pink, pure blue
and all sorts Of combinations OF both.
Some folks seem to fancy blue and
others the pink. As mentioned earlier
this color can be modified by alter
ing the acid reaction OF the SOIL
