No Surprise.
Chicago, Feb. 21.-(By A. P.
Samuel Instill, president of the Chi
cago Civic Opera association, which
has charge of the Chicago Opera
company, declared he was not sur
prised when informed today that
Mary Garden planned to resign as
director. .
Miss Garden's announcement - of
her coming resignation was not en
tirely unlooked for in Chicago operatic
circles generally, for there had been
many rumors of it, although none of
them seemed to have any real basis.
She was appointed late in the 1920-21
season.
The Chicago company underwent a
tempestous season under her guid
ance. She shocked the opera world
with an announcement that she in
tended "to put jazz in Chicago
opera," but explained the statement
by saying that she merely meant to
make opera attractive to the average
person and to do away with the idea
that opera was for the rich only.
Brilliant Season. . " '
Her plans gave Chicago its most
brilliant opera season, but just before
the company went to New York for
the 1922 season there, it became
known unofficially that the deficit
for the year might run as high as
$800,000 the greatcstdeficit ever in
curred,. This deficit will be met by Harold
F. McCormick and Mrs. Edith Rock
afcllcr McCormick, who five years
ago agreed to finance the company
until May, 1922. It also became
known that the McCormicks had
spent around $3,000,000 in making up
the company's deficits during the five
years. : - i
U. S. Death Rate Drops
to 1,306 Per 100,000
Washington, Feb. 2. The death
rate in ..the United States decreased
to 1,306 per 100,000 population in
1920 from 1,496 per 100,000 in 1910.
according to figures announced to-
i day by the census bureau. All ago
groups showed a decline in death
rate, but the most pronounced de-J
crease was recorded jn the figures
covering infant mortality tinder 1
year of age, the 1920 rate being 9,660
per 100,000 compared with 13,083 per
100,000. in 1910, a decline of 26 per
cent. .
The rate of the group above 75
years of age decreased from 14,360
to 13,490 per 100,000, approximately
6 per cent.
The decrease in all adult groups
was attributed largely to the reduced
rates from tuberculosis, typhoid
fever and Brights diesase. The rate
; for -tuberculosis showed a decrease
in the 10-year period from 160 to 114
per 100,000: for typhoid fever. 24 to
eight per 100,000, arid Brights disease
and acute nephritis, 99 to 89. Death
from accidents of all kinds decreased
from 84 to 71.
Women's Feet Are Growing
Larger Shoe Dealers Say
Chicago, Feb. 20. Along with the
ballot, - wearing of one-piece men's
bathing suits and the "right" ... to
smoke, milady has "enjoyed" a
growth in her feet. It isn't a case
of "just looking bigger," but her
feet arc quite a bit larger ifl reality
than a few years past.
Take this from the thousands of
shoe men who are at Chicago attend
ing the annual convention of the Na
tional Retail Shoe association here.
"Women in business are on their
feet more than they used to be," de
clared Budford H. Jones of Boston,
president of the Thompson-Crocker
Shoe company, explaining the situ
ation. "At least this is the explana
tion manufacturers advance."
The shoe men do not believe the
- boot can do a come back. The short
skirt has done for the boot forever,
, they believe.

England Breathless as Wedding
Day of Princess Mary Approaches
London. Feb. 21. (By A. P.)
Flans for the wedding of Princess
Mary and Viscount I.ascelles are
Hearing complet:on.
fcarly frequenters of Loudon s
streets will sec some morning this
week empty carriages, escorted by
cavalry, in rehearsal of the proces
sion from the palace to Westminster
Abbey.

ruary 28. Queen Mary and Queen
Mother Alexandra with their escort
and attendants will form the first, the
king following shortly afterward
with the bride and an escort.
The route through the . Mall.
Whitehall and Parliament street will
not be decorated throughout, but
there will be two triumphal arches,
and near the abbey the roadway will
be adorned with festoons of flowers,
supported by pillars with inter
mediate ornamental devices bearing
portraits of the bride and bride-
room.
' The hat in which the bride will
start her honeymoon 13 of "mole and
larkspur blue georgette," the mole
to match her moleskin wrap, and the
blue georgette to match her dress.
The marriage knot will be tied by
the archbishop of Canterbury, the
archbishop of York, the bishop' of
London, the bishop of Oxford, the
dean of Westminster and Canon
Lascclles,. the bridegroom's uncle.
A new flag the Abbey flag will
be flown from one of the abbey's
towers on the morning of the wed
ding. It embodies historical syiti.
hols from the time or Edward the
Confessor.
The "Brighter London society,"
composed of business and theatrical
men. aims to make the week of the
wedding "Brighter London week."
in honor of the princess. The so
ciety hopes to make the city more
attractive for American tourists and
other transients who show an incli
nation to prefer Faris or other con
tinental cities.
In social, court and diplomatic
circles, such a round of dances and
dinners and receptions has been
planned as London has not seen
since the coronation. For the gen
eral public a number of "Princess
Mary wedding balls" have been
planned. '
lfcouttt
Hotels and restaurants are arrang
ing gala dinners and dances. Clubs
and various societies will have house
warmings and homecomings The
railroads are running special excur
sions from all parts cf the kingdom
and giving special service from the
channel ports for the benefit of con
tinental visitors. Newspapers and
magazines are issuing special Prin
cess Mary numbers.
A suggestion for making the wed
ding day a bank holiday has been
negatived, but in the city's offices
at.d shops it is expected that sudden
ly developed cases of influenza and
other timely excuses will be numer
ous, for the wedding will be of domi
nating interest to executives and of
fice boys alike, and London intends
doing its best to celebrate the event
properly.
A precedent established by Prin
cess Patricia in displaying her wed
ding gifts to the public probably
will be followed by Princess Mary.
It is understood they will be shown
at St. James palace, a small fee be
ing charged for admission, the pro
ceeds to be donated to some' charity.
Society Women Run Hotel for Day
... ... .... v - .. . .. . ...
New York Leaders Take Over Biltmore for Benefit
of Society for Prevention of Tuberculosis Ma
trons Serve as Waitresses.
New York, Feb. 21. 'A"thousand
debutantes and , former debutancs
took charge of the Hotel Biltmore
yesterday and ran it on a most happy
and expansive style for the benefit
of the Society for the Prevention of
Tuberculosis. Girls and matrons
whose names fill pages of the social
register served as waitresses and
room clerks and presided over cigar
counters, news stands and tea tables.
About the only things they did not
operate were the elevators, the
kitchen and the vacuum cleaners.
They soon educated all of the
guests into the spirit of the day.
Newspapers sold at $1 and more and
dinner tips ranged as high as $75.
Pretty girls posed as bell hops and
rtiany a man had himself paged just
to hear how sweet his name could
sound. The lobby was filled with
debs selling all .manner of articles.
Guests were persuaded they need
things they never had bought before
and probably never will again.
Unless a man had' a! flower in
his lapel, a book or magazine in
his hands and his pocket stuffed
with smokes and programs for the
day and toys to. take homo to the
kiddies, he felt almost half undressed.
Those who bought : programs
found that there were so many
tilings going on in the hotel it was
almost impossible to see .them all.
One floor housed a circus, a bazai
was on the next, tea dansant further
up and a bridge tournament still
higher. The winner of the tourna
ment was given a box for a per
formance at the Metropolitan opera
house.
,'A style show with popular "flap
per?" and "debs" as models"attracted
hundreds with lorgnettes : and with
out, and others went to the roof in
the afternoon to see a comedy played
by society girls and their gentlemen
friends.
Orchestras seemed to be all over
the hotel and where there was
music there was dancing. At dinner
Broadway actors and show girls
came in for a cabaret performance
and others flocked over for the
merry midnight frolic that made the
after theater supper parties the
gayest of the year. These ended at
3 in the morning and then the busi
ness of running the hotel was given
back to the regular employes.

Washingum, Feb. 2l.-rrit!ct
Harding Secretary llughri air
prfDsring to tmVt a determined
tunc! for the doctrine of cq'ul cp
portunity lor Americans all over
tlx world, particularly in the oil
fields of the near cut. There dis
crimination against American en
terprise is declared to exist.
Secretary Hughes announced this
determination In note to Crest
Dritain and The Ncthciland some
months before the arm conference
wai called. The Washington con
ference caused temporary abandon
ment of these activities, which ate
now to be renewed.
Not only in Mesopotamia, where
the United States lia been standing
for its rights under the mandate ac
corded to Great Urit4iii, -ut also in
Persia, the Balkans and the Turkish
empire, the Umted butts purposes
to insist upon Americana being ac
corded tho aame rights and privi

the allied countries.
Harvey on Lookout.
Ambassador C.rorge Harvey, rep
resentative of President Harding on
the supreme council, it is learned, is
under instruction to watch every
development at the forthcoming
conference of allied premiers in
Paris. The meeting has jut been
called by Lord Curaon. Hritish for
eign minister, to determine a new
allied policy for the near east.
When the question oi iiiouiiyiug
the Sevres treaty is taken up. the
American State department will be
kept informed of each move in am
ple time. Every effort will be made
to secure the annulment of present
provisions ot tne treaty which
permit widespread discrimination
against Americans ana to prevent
new clauses being inserted which
would have similar results.
Pressure Brought to Bear.
Vieorous pressure lias been
brought to bear upon the American
government during the past two
months by Americans in the near
east. The American commissioner
in Constantinople has forwarded to
Washington numerous protests fnir
American firms. These protests in
variably charge that all allied na
tionals, with the open or tacit en
couragement of their governments,
are conspiring to exclude Americans
from the work of developing the
Balkans. Persia, the Turkish empire.
Palestine, and Mesopotamia.
Ths niost via-orous of the pro
tests recently received is that of the
American Chamber ot commerce
for the Levant, which reached here
today. It says in part: . . .''
"The American Chamber of Com
merce for the Levant has observed
with grave anxiety and deep con
cern the encroachments ' upon and
damage to American commercial in
terests in the near east, caused by
entire absence of consideration for
American interests evidenced by the
principal allied powers in their rela
tions with the various states."

The liquor, it is said by city of
