Omaha to Helve Grand Opera
and Leading Artist of the
World Will Sing Roles :
Omahans Have Spanned the Chasm Between Provincialism and
Metropolitanism They Are Alive to Opportunity
to Make the City a Gem Between
Two Oceans.
By, ADELAIDE KENNERLY,,
Another feather in Omaha's cap!
The spirit of progress is abroad
and nothing can stop these western
nustlers when once they are start
ed. They are on a v'entible stam
pede for success. . v
Right on the heels of the "booster
trip," members of the Chamber of
Commerce, merchants and Jeading
business men joined hands with so
ciety and women leaders in every
walk of life, to bring grand opera
to Omaha.
Am) why not? Did not these men
who recently went out through the
state and surrpunding territory learn
how much is expected of Omaha?
Did they not learn that they were
considered,by- people outside, to be
the leading lights of the west? Oma
ha, they discovered, was looked upon
by its neighbors as the little New
York of the west the middle
melrofiolis that it was truly the
"Gateway" where the commercial
east joined hands with the produc
tive west.
Commercial club and tea table
discussions made these' men and
women more determined than ever
to. not disappoint those who be
lieved in Omaha, -
The resultl
Grand opera for Omaha 1
Cleofonte Canaanini, general- di
rector of the Chicago Opera com
pany, will bring celebrated artists
here to sing in "Aida" and "La
Boheme." Such magnets as Galli
Curci, Rosa Raisa, Yvonne Gall,
Florence Macbeth, Tamaki ' Miura,
Alessandro Dolci, Containe, Bakla
- noff and Lamont are scheduled to
appear.
The grand opera experiment was
tried out several years ago by At-,
lantans when that city was strug
gling for a place in the "sun." At
that time the south was "breaking
out in spots" with the spirit of prog
ress and when northern ambition
joined hands with southern culture
well, the tide began .to turn. At
lanta's chamber of commerce,
backed by every leading citizen in
that Georgia capital, was filled with
the "do or die" determination to
make the city a mecca for all things
jreat and beautiful.
At first they brought the Metro
politan Opera company there for
two day. The opera season was ad
vertised, written about, talked about
ind planned for three tnonths in
advance. Women from the outly
ing towns, for 200 and 300 miles
around, decided to do their shopping
in'tl Atlanta. I' Ehejr;- jewels r were
brought forth from dark hiding
places; : their old gowns .were re

chased; they filled the hotels a week
prior to the opening of opera.
Did the experiment work?
Just a word in leaving Atlanta:
Grand opera is an event every sec
ond year not for a day, but for a
week. People within 200 miles of
that city plan more for the opera
season than the population of the
United States did for the great ex
positions at Chicago, St. Louis and
San Francisco. The hotels prepare
for crowds, the merchants send their
buyers to New York and abroad in
advance of opera season, in antici
pation of the crowds who have shop
ping orgies during opera season. -
Sociey leaders entertained the ar
tists at receptions, at dinner dances,
at private parties, at golf and at the
clubs. Headlines of recent papers
tell us that "Atlantans revel in op
era after two-year fast." No longer
is the opera house used, but a great
temporary coliseum has been built
to accommodate the folks who
flocked there 6,000 strong at every
performance. Grand opera if taking
the glory away from New Orleans
Mardi Gras as opera enthusiasm
grews Mardi Gras hilarity dimin
ishes. Since before the war Atlanta has
stood for the best in the south
commercially, the best artistically
and in most every other way.
Omaha is evincing the same spirit.
Indeed, there is . nothing too big
for it to undertake and bring
through with triumphant flags flying
high over success. '
Opera is always a spiritual recrea
tion; a break in the monotony of
life, and the stepping stone to mere
beautiful and artistic heights.
The following list of some promi
nent folks who have already seen
the light and have signed up a?
guarantors for opera. Ihey are
making the "clearing ahead: Mrs.
E. W. Nash, Messrs. lorn Kelly,
Jay D. Foster, E. Buckingham,
W. B. Fagg, W. E. Reed, E.
H. Flitton, Roy W. Towle, W.
J. Hynes and John W. Reddick.
Many of the progressive organiza
tions have also signed as guarantors,
including Burgess-Nash Co., J. L.
Brandeis & Sons, Hospe & Co.,
George E. Nickel, Brunswick-Balkc-Collendar
Co., Nicholas Oil Co.,
Nicoll the Tailor, Drexel Shoe Co.,
Pease-Black Co., Beaton Drug Co.,
Sherman McConnell and others.
What Atlanta has done Omaha
can, and will,' more than do. If all
the present plans go through the
east can no longer speak of Omaha
with the Indian grunt, a far away
stare and. ask: "Oh,, yesi-that, little
packing house' out west." It will
crystalize into a veritable gem be
tween two oceans.
Carl' Anderson as "The Muhkit
trick;" Gertrude Passavoy as "Miss
Munkittrick;" Leo Ryan as "Sir
Colin Macphail," the wealthy High
land chieftain; Florence Reynolds,
"Lady Macphail," will also furnish
a pleasing comedy part.
Miss Mary Wallace is coaching
the play with Miss Edna Cole as
class sponsor.
"The following have charge of the
ticket committee: Theodore Wood,
chairman, Abe Millman, Walter
Kocher and Max Janger.
The following have charge of the
publicity: Irene Klepetka, chairman,
Lucene Baldwin, Gertrudf Passavoy,

ker of 1326 East

Oakland, ' Cal., her
letter cannot help
but be an inspira
tion to every, suf
ferer from -catarrh".
Thjs is what she
says: "Diphtheria left me with ca-
tarrh of the throat. After year of
suffering and disappointment, I gave ,
up hope until I heard of PE-RU-NA.
I tried it. Followed instructions and
have had no catarrh since. Now, we
always keep PE-RU-NA and M ANA-LIN
in the house.",
It is not necessary for any one
to go on year after year suffering
with catarrh in any form. PE-RU-NA.
is just as effective for, catarrh
of the stomach, bowels, liver and
other organs as it is for coughs, .
colds and catarrh of the nose and
throat It is by regulating the di
gestion and aiding elimination that
PE-Rtf-NA insures a rich supply of
pure blood and nourishment being'
carried to the mucous linings every- .
where. By keeping the mucous mem
branes healthy, the body is better
able to repel disease and ward off
such troubles as the Grip and Span- '
ish Flu. PE-RU-NA is of extraor
dinary value in rebuilding the body
to normal health and strength.

What Causes Wrinkles?
What's The Remedy?
Stop to consider what produces wrinkles
and eaggineaa of skin. Premature aging, '
mai-nutntion, etc, cause the flesh to -shrink,
lose ita youthful plumpness . and
firmness. The skin then is too large .for
the flesh underneath: doesn't fit tightly
and snugly as it used to it wrinkles or ,
sags. - . r
It must be plain that to tighten the
skin, make it fit the face, perfectly in
every place, will effectually remove the ,
hateful wrinkles and basginess. This is
easily and harmlessly accomplished by1
dissolving an ounce of powdered saxohte
in a half pint ef witch hasel and using the
solution as a race wash. The ingredients '
you can get at any drug store. The re- .
suits are surprising. The skin immediately ,
tightens up. becoming Arm and fresh as
in youth. Every wrinkle and sag are af
fected at once. Adv.
