"For whoever hears .this young
singer is impressed immediately
with the glory and the charm ot
voice, and as she is also a most at
tractive personality and an intelli
gent and faithful worker along all
lines leading to complete musician
ship, jt follows, inevitably, that she
will realize all the hopes of her
friends for an unusual career.
- "Her Voice is contralto of the
purest kind. It is produced with a'
ountv and an even Quality through
out which is remarkable, in view of
its power, and which makes Miss
Spalding almost unique among con
traltos, for she has absolutely an
even and unbroken scale throughout
the entire ranee of her voice.
"In a recent private hearing Miss
Scalding sang He Was Despised,
from "The Messiah": "The Worldly
Hooes Men Set Their Hearts Upon,
from "The Persian Garden"; "Oh,
Let Night Speak of Me" (Chad
wick), and "By the Waters of Min
: netonka" Lieurence), and through-
it ttii aie-nifirsnr and varied ma
terial she showed constant beauty
of tone and excellent musicianship,
' as well as interpretative thought
of the most attractive description
"Miss Spalding is an Omaha girl
who came to Chicago two years
ago to study with Ueorge W. Jen
kins, and is still under that suc
cessful tutelage.
' "Previous to her leaving Omaha,
wHile yet a high school girl, she
studied with Walter B. Graham of
tne NebrasKa city.
"Wnerever miss apaiaing nas oeen

an unusual career.
"She has been engaged for the
coming spring festival at Amarillo,

readings in a tepee. Each guest had
an individual seance with the Ma

laid bare. The horror chamber in
the attic was as grewsome as the

in black and filled with ghostly
terrors, it was entered in trepidation

Our race's security demands a
sweeping international change in the
matter of dress. : It is time that a
mighty, sentiment sprang' up
throughout the peoples of the west

a circle of social and business ac
