"The way to sing to English speak-1
ing people is in the language they un
derstand," writes Lynn Wilson, one
of the best known newspaper men in
the state of Connecticut, in a recent
editorial tribute to John McCormack,
the celebrated tenor, who will be
heard at the Auditorium Tuesday
evening, Janury 23, as the fourth nuni:
bcr of the Retailer's Course.
Most of the great singers have
chosen to sing most of their songs
in foreign tongues, and the audience
has expressed an enthusiaunt it was
far from feeling, while scanty attend
ance has indicated the real lack of
popular interest. How different it is
with John McLormack, the nrst
really great singer who has deigned
to sing in the English tongue. There
are no cold audiences when McCor
mack appears. There are no empty
houses when his voice is heard. His
audiences are not composed of a few
exclusive persons devoted to an art
that is not and never can be national.
There come into the McCormack au
diences all' the really cultured men
and women of the community, who
listen spellbound while a great ar
tist sings great songs which they can
understand.
Art is but a means of delineating
and imitating truth. It is a means of
conveying high thoughts from one
mind to another. To convey such
thought it is1 necessary that a me
dium of conveyance shall exist. So it
that great literature in the French
tongue will not be great literature to
him who does not understand French.
Nor can great songs be sung to those
who understand only the English
language, so that they will under
stand, save in English.
John McCormack is entitled to this
fair meed of praise. He has done for
JOHN M'CORMACK.
happens, and must always remain true,
song in America what Dante did for
literature in Italy and what Spenser
did for literature in England. That
this should be so is the more to his
credit, for his training was purely
classical, and he was submitted to
that rigorous culture which has made
every great singer in America, be
fore his lime so far as the art of song
was concerned, a' foreigner. McCor
mack's Italian is perfect in pronunci
ation, and before an audience of cul
tured Italians he would be as much
an artist as he is before an audience
of Americans, singing in the tongue
which Americans understand.
Tickets for reserved seats will be

Rosengren Tells
Of Cold Effect On
Storage Battery
Elmer Rosengren of the Nebraska
Storage Battery company asserts that
in cold weather the capacity of a
storage battery is naturally Irss than
in warm weather, but it is still more
than enough to do its work, provided
the car is driven enough to permit
the generator to replace the current
used.
In winter the motorist should keep
in frequent touch with the battery
service station. Stations such as the
Willard Storage Battery company
maintain all over the country are glad
to test any battery and give the owner
advice to keep it in good condition.
As has already been pointed out, it
is imperative that the battery he
tested frequently to see that it is kept
in a fully charged condition, and there
is no better way of seeing that this
is n"r rrfiilarlv than by running the
machine into the service station reg
ularly and letting the expert in
charge do it.
"The generator, of course, should
return to the battery as much power
as is taken out of it. The car manu
facturer, though, cannot foresee the
exact conditions under which the au
tomobile is to be run. He builds to
an average. If extraordinary service
is demanded of the battery, the car
owner should have some adjustment
made to the generator, or should be
prepared to have it charged at a serv
ice station, and the only way to tell
if this charging is necessary is to
have a hydrometer syTinge wherewith
to test the battery."
Persistent Advertising Is the
Road to Success.
Doctor's Daughter Again
