1 bought because I had been there last summer and the clerk did
object to selling me a pair of shoes I wnnted, saying they were too
small tor mr; which so pleased me with the integrity of the shop
that I did v.,w to go there for all my shoe-purchases. All day at
letter -writing and other labours, but low-spirited, as sensing im?

shewed bin my new shoes, which he greatly admired. To the office

"In Gary we consider the longer
school dey a great source of ben.!.'
Mr. Wolfing continued. "In an ordi?
nary school day. such as you have in

Mr. Nodd ?said ?thai the Gary plan
would mean an extension of educa?

'i ., years ag>. th?. Beard of Kduca
t;on estimated that ?"nun forty to fifty
million dallan weald be seeded for
new school buildings." concluded Mr.
Nudd, "ii th. part time problem was
to be solved. New York doesn't need
the new buildings, but ShopO, )>'ay

under the Gerj plan, weald solve the

would cost but 17,000,000.

BORIS G0D0UN0W
SUNG AT OPERA
_ 1
Moussorgsky Work at Metropol
itan with Adamo Didur
and Usual Cast.
Moussoigsky's "Boris Godounow" Is
evidently to take its just place in the
repertory of the Metropolitan Opera
House. This year it has been chosen
for the second opera of the season;
.sometime, when Mr. Caruso has passed
beyond our operatic ken, it may even ;
be chosen for the first. In his intro
ductiofl to "Musiciens d'Autrefois." '
Romain Holland writ**1, in discussing
the opera of the latter half of
the iast century: "While one side
. otiternporary music used the
wonderful means at hand that had been
elaborated by nineteenth century .
geniuses in painting the subtle soul of
a decadent society, on the other side
S '-re ?lie signs of a popular movement.
?? h'.cli was giving fresh life to art by
? ling inspiration from popular
melodist anil by translating into music
popular feelings among the earlier
protagOBigta of which were Bizet and
IfOBSBorgaky." This movement is, in?
deed, as Mr. Rolland continues, "s'.ill
a little timid and uncertain"; though
"Louise" comes at once to mind as an
example of democratic opera--that it
exists at all is surely significant.
Opera has been in the past a purely
aristocratic amusement, and it 1?'
largely such to-day. Moreover, it is ?
entirely such in the English speaking,
nation?, as has been evidenced only re-?
esntly by the failure of the Century
tipeni Company, Opera of the people.'
for Hie people, ?s la America the dream
of a number of well meaning idealists.
Democracy has found its art, as far as
America is concerned, in the movies.
A'id as for democratic opera, has it not
If?8B Parrar in her film "Carmen"?
Ve- n trely democratic opera was
presented last night at the Metro?
politan. "Boris Godounow" is, as Mr.
Holland has written, inspired by popu?
lar me'oilies and expressive of populir
f?eling, anil last night New York's aris?
tocracy, both social and musical, drank
deep at the spring of Russian democ?
racy. The people themselves ap?
parently were oblivious to the call of
their champion. The sam? faces that
are seen always at presentations of op?
eratic masterpieces were there; the
BBdisaes was not as large as it would ,
have been at a performance of "Pagii
acc:."
The performance wgi an excellent
one. Adamo Didur as the tortured
Czar reaches heights of dramatic
rower which place him among th?
great aiiur.Bg actors of our time. H ?
wag Sl in? best, both vocally and his?
trionically, last night. Mr. Segur?la
again gave his Blt-Stlc bit a-i the drunk?
en Varlaam, and Mme. Delaunois made
an appealing Theodore. The singi',,*
of the chorus ?vas as tine as it ever
has been, ami th.* orchestra under Mr.
Polacco ?ave, on the whole, a good a:
count of it?elf.
