THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: MAY 9, 1920. 11 B V v ' 1MU5 r C 1 I ,,9k - t I By HENRIETTA M. REES. ISX'T it amazing that so few peo ple seem to realize the value of preparation in regard to musical performance? Yet next to natural talent and thorough education, there is nothing so essential to success. The great orchestras do not play the numbers on their programs without many rehearsals, the great choirs do not sing their most effective an thems at sight, nor do the great art ists appear in successful public per formance without first spending much time and thought in prepara tion of the numbers. It is often the preparation, more than the talent, which "makes the difference between the mediocre performance and the fine one. When a church choir has had am ple preparation, how smoothly the anthem flows, and how easy it seems for the choristers to sing it. When a church choir has not had ample preparation, how carefully they feel their steps and how 'much of the inspiration which should be there is lost! Yet many a choir di rector, who ought to know better, brings a difficult anthem to his Choir Friday night for a brief rehearsal before a Sunday performance. Even a simple anthem does not go any too well if the singers do not know it, and have not sung it often enough together to get the ensemble of it. Often great civic events have been in preparation . for weeks, yet the musicians who are asked to furnish musical numbers for it afe given only a brief advance notice and ex pected to do their best. If they do not accept the engagement the com mittee considers them ungracious, not that it has been . inconsiderate and it goes on and engages some ether musicians who rush in where the first ones feared to tread. The best soloists are wary about appear ing in public without careful prep aration. When they do appear their music is interpreted so smooth ly it seems the most natural thing in the world, and the average listener, because he cannot see any traces of the work behind the scenes does not realize it is there. The Metropolitan opera house in Philadelphia has been sold to a the atrical concern, and the Academy of Music in the same city will un , doubtedly be turned over to the movies. There is a possibility that opera may be given in the Metro politan next season if it comes like a regular theatrical company and plays a week. But the loss of the Academy of Music to musical pur poses will turn the splendid Phila delphia orchestra out into the street with no place to plav. This is the orchestra which has a $1,000,000 en dowment fund. This fund cannot be touched as it has been placed in trust. Of course it will be an excellent advertisement for the culture of Philadelphia if it allows its orchestra to be thrown out of a home in order to accommodate the movies. Of what value to the city is a million dollar endowed orchestra if it has no place to play? If it results in the orchestra eventually owning its own hall it will not be entirely dis astrous, for Orchestra hall has been a great asset to the Chicago Sym phony orchestra, which is the only orchestra in the country, perhaps in the world, which goes through an entire season without a deficit But it will be a great blow to the best interests of Philadelphia if its or chestra is turned out for the movies. The music of such an orchestra holds untold possibilities for enjoy ment, imaginative stimulation and personal inspiration, while in the movies very little of any sort is un told. Nothing is too good for the general public when it comes to ma terial things, dress goods, the cuts of steaks, and so on. But when it comes to enjoyment it wants some thing cheap, and it finds that very thing in the movies, so it patronizes them, and they pay financially to such an extent that everything must make way. The Philadelphia Public Ledger asserts that the acoustics in the Academy of Music are perfect "That such a structure should be devoted to the screen," it quotes a director as saying, "when the screen has no need of acoustics of any kind, is enough to break the heart of any music lover." The recent Musical Courier states that on authoritative information, Gino Marinuzzi will be the suc cessor of the late .Cleofonte Cam- panini as artistic director of the Chi cago Opera company. ' Also that this is the first year in musical his tory that American artists-appear in Europe under American manage ment The use of music as an important factor in community work has long been proven, and the municipal con cert which is planned for May 17 at the Omaha Auditorium will be the largest event of this kind to take place in Omaha for some time. In this concert 225 instrumentalists ahd singers will take part in the various groups. The admission will be free, and the general public is invited to be present.

NEW YORK. (Special Corre spondence.) This being the time of year, with the season's end in sight, when all the jolly old experts of the drama set about their task of selecting the 10 best plays of the year, we are always reminded of the trusty who was showing a group of interested visitors through the insane asylum. You recall how, coming to the last of the padded cells, and indicating the somewhat excited gentleman within, he ex plained: And this young man has a sad history. He imagines he s Napoleon. Which is perfectly ridic ulous, because I'm Napoleon." These lists of 10 frequently rep resent merely the 10 most popular plays. Or they include the 10 most curious exhibits of the season. Oc casionally they are an amusing mix ture of, say, six of the 10 best and four of the 10 worst plays of the year. But always the compiler of the list is most insistent that his se lections' are the only genuine 10. Which is perfectly ridiculous, be cause as a matter of fact we have not yet had time to make up the real liSt' $, Furthermore, though we can off hand select the first eight of the 10 that shall finally be named, the two last places should not be filled until the season is really complete. It is quite possible there may be a mas terpiece just outside the door of one of the playhouses waiting for a hearing, and we are not one to risk the necessity of changing the only official list when it is published. The first eight to be chosen, however, are the following: John Drinkwater's "Abraham Lin coln." M Elugene O'Neill's "Beyond the Hor izon." James Forbers' "The Famous Mrs. Fair." Zoe Akins "Peclassee." St. John Ervine's "Jane Clegg." Booth Tarkington's "Clarence." Rachel Barton Butler's "Mamma's Affair George Mlddleton and Guy Bol ton's "Adam and Eva." There were approximately 140 new plays produced during the sea son, and from the remaining 132 it will be comparatively simple to complete the list of 10 in time to settle all outstanding disputes. In the meantime let those who will continue the fighting. There is a large public, and several critics, in sisting that Avery Hopwood's "The Gold Diggers" should be included, arguing that, whatever its literary standing, it is the truest reflection of New York's chorus girl life as it is lived in Mr. Hearst's magazines that has yet reached the stage, and cer tainly one of the most popular ot the year's plays. With the cost of playgoing what it is, the paying public's verdict is the only one that should count in kuch (elections, argues this public. "The Gold Dig gers" began last September and is still going strong. But to, for the matter of that, did Cosmo Hamil ton' 'Srnnil.il." And Lanirdon McCormick's "The Storm" was only a week or two nenina incm. Some hold, too, that Sent Ben- nelli's "The Jest," which John Bar rymore played from the season's be ginning until late in February, should be included in any list or cur rent successes, because, although technically it belongs to the season r.f 1Q1S-MQ it was not nroduced until April, 1919, and achieved its real suc cess in tne season ot iyiy-iv-u. Then there are the friends of the melnrtr.imn. U'lin are loud in their claim that at least one of this type ot play should be included, it tne "best" plays means anything at all, they say, it means the plays that f -! ic li a si t1n 1 a el- jntr tfi tnriifti t tr i 111 IIIO U It UV.'L V W a iui b a, w the greatest number, and how is it legitimately possible to overlook Channel Pollock's "The Sign on..the Door," Rita Weiman's "The Acquit tal," David Belasco and George Edith L. Wagoner will present 30 of her pupils in piano recital on Sat urday evening. May 15, at the Oak ford Music company, 1807 Farnam street. All interested are invited to attend.

Morse will give a piano recital, Wednesday eve ning, May 12, 8 o'clock, at 2417 North Twenty-second street Pupils taking part will be: Miss Ethel Tiedman, Eunice Nelson, Alice RoodJ Jeanette Weare, Marjone Pool, Lil lian Pellican, Ama Plueler, Mary Failen, Alice Jelen, Rachel Slyter, Helen Houghton, Josephine Jelen, Dora Musil, Ama Nickel, Minnie Goodrichv Bessie Siporin, Lillian Kelser, Hazel Johnson, Rose Styshal, Louella Inglish, Bernice Blasaer, La Vera Andersen, Ester Goodman, Bernice , Millikan, Bessey Borsky, Margaret Lindstadt and Dorothy An derson.

A 75 pound rockfish, the largest ever caught in Delaware bay, was land ed by Captain Holmes and James McCoolcy off the Green creek clam beds. While drifting over the beds Holmes hooked what he thought was a black drum, but, to the sur prise of these veterans of the bay, it turned out to be a huge rockfish. Fishermen say that flounders, croakers and weakfish will be very plentiful in the lower Delaware bay and river this year.

By Madams Mares J U?l eV TO retain a youthful complexion, or to revive a neglected one, is only a matter of daily care, together with good toilet preparations. Here are some horns mixed creams and hair beautifiers that are recommended as having been tested and tried for many years. A Cream to Tighten the Skin and Remove Wrinkle It Is really Ingpiringr to know that removing: wrinkles now depends almost entirely upon yourself. Just a few minutes' trouble at the etart and more than half the battle is ever. It will take but a few moments for you to make a mixture of two ounces of eptol, a little water and glycerine. The eptol can be obtained from your drugg-ist for fifty cents. This cream pro. duces startling; chances in the skin in a ehort time. It will make you look many years younrer If you will only use It faithfully. A Cream to Fade Oat Blemlshea There Is but one thing- you need to beautify your akin and bring it to a condition of inoomparable loveliness in a short time. By the use of this cream you will soon find that all red spots, freckles, all muddlness an,, sallowness will have disappeared com pletely, leaving the skin pure and clear as a lily. You cannot get this result except by mixing one ounce of zlntone with a little glycerine and hot water. The zlntone costs fifty cents at the drug store. This makes a remarkable cream, which, when used liber ally, will not fall to give you the results. Blackheads Go in a Few Minutes It is only a question of a few moments to get rid of blackheads. The best thing; to use is neroxln. You sprinkle a little neroxin on a wet cloth or sponge and rub the blackheads with, this for a few moments. Looking In your mirror, you will find the black heads gone. This Is a very remarkable article, and you need no longer use tonics, face-steaming, and pinching, and other useless methods for many months at a time. For fifty cents you can get the neroxin from your drugsrlst. For a Shampoo Just buy a twenty-five cent package of eggol and dissolve It In hot water as you need it. This is far better than soap. To Remove Superfluous Hair There is a very remarkable way to re move superfluous hair. Simply moisten the hairs with a little sulfo solution. The hair begins to shrivel. ' You can see this dissolve, and then with Just a swish of the finger, all the hairs can be rubbed off clear and clean. It is glorious. Every woman should have some sulfo solution on ner aresser. it win cost one dollar at any drug store, and will last for a considerable time. For a Dependable) Hair Iavlgorator You can easily prevent hair from falling, and you can make it grow thick and luxuriant by a very simple method, which is far superior In results to that of any so-called hair tonlo you can buy. The invlgorator Is niude by adding one ounce of beta-quinol to a half pint of water and a half pint of bay rum. If you prefer you may use a full pint of wltchhszel instead of the water and bay rum. The beta-quinol may be pro cured for fifty cents at any drug store. Try this and you will no longer find tmndfuls o( hair coming out on your comb.
