The music score of MNs Glnser's opera is a very prelunlious one, and the mosf serious criticism that can be of lered of the production is the lack of sufficient instrumentation to brimr out lis nrcbe.stral beauty. It was orijrinnlly scored for forty-two in struments, and one familiar with or chestration, missod tho French horns, flute, oboe, bassoon and harp.

Tho Medford audience is well up to the standard of any city on the Pacitic coast." Light opera is undergoing a prj ccss of evolution, and the light music comedy drama of the future will not bo received favorably without an or chestra of at least eighteen or twonty pieces. Give us an up-to-dnte Amer ican libretto, with a music! sotting like "The Chocolate Soldier" ov "Miss DiidleMick" ami wo shall have the ideal light opera for our entertainment-loving country.
