In 1ELEN GLEASON, blonde, beautiful and
exquisitely dressed, is the fortunate
possessor of soprano voice that has
. trilled her into fame in the Metro
politan Opera as we'll as last seasons color
fully costumed operetta, "Frederika." When
she used to trudge back and forth to the pub
lie school in New York's West Fifties how
ever, none of the other girls suspected that
they we're cumming with someone who
cherished secret ambition to be a singer
Helen Gleason was even more retiring then
than she is now and she was also rather afraid
to mention her dreams They seemed very
lofty ones to this child whose family was al
most totally unacquainted with singers and
looked frowningly on vaudeville to which
young Helen turned covetous eyes. But the
family had yielded to her desire for singing
lessons, and at seventeen she won their un-
willing consent to her appearance on Keith
circuit.
Thus it happens that Miss Gleason has re-
versed the usual order of experiences by aim
ing at vaudeville and arriving at grand opera.
But there we're several Italian years between
her circuit performances and her operate
success. In them she learned languages and
also great deal more about singing.
Today Miss Gleason knows the thrill of
success and adulation. She is part of the
romance and glamour that have always at
tracted her Yet in many ways she seems un-
touched by them, for she is still a retiring
sort of person She lives with her father and
mother in Forest Hills and says frankly that
she does not entertain very much and has
never been in night club.
Il love to eat" Miss Gleason says. but
| don't very often get some of the things like
hest - caviar on hot buttered toast, for in
stance"
The explanation is that she is determined
not to put on the weight that seems so often
to be the destiny of singers.
II lost twenty pounds" she boasts, "on
broiled meats, vegetables, fruits. salads and
slice of bread with each meal. Once week
had baked potato but never any dessert
except fruit"
1t is wholesome diet but an abstemious
one for such a natural lover of sweets as Miss
Gleason, She is extravagantly fond of French
pastry and likes all kinds of pies - the richer,
the better. Raspberry pie and blueberry pie,

sticks with your glass of tomato juice, she
advises.
Service makes tremendous difference in
your enjoyment of food" Miss Gleason says
''Unattractive service can spoil the most deli
cious dish that can possibly be prepared. But
lovely service lends enchantment to the
simplest meal am fussy about service. like
it both correct and beautiful"
Helen Gleason is person who finds music
in all beauty - whether it is beauty of clothes,
of table ware, of service or of food Her meals
have music of their own. There is no COM
promise with the best in Miss Gleasons code,
whether she is talking about food or merely
living the private life that she manages to
keep so extremely private. And she has firm
ness of purpose that both accounts for her
success and enables her to remain untouched
personally by many and varied experiences.
Her histrionic ability is reserved for the stage
and not squandered on dazzling her family
and friends. To them she is still Helen Gleason.

"Old-fashiOned models Of air
