' MISS KATHLEEN GEORGE.
WHEN the National Opera Com
pany reached Portland to be
gin its engagement Sunday
there was one little girl in the troupe
to whom it seemed like getting home.
She is Miss Kathleen George, a former
Portland girl, who for the past three
years has been- a resident of Seattle.
After only three week's in the chorus,
Miss George has achieved a step to
ward her ambition, for & role has been
given her and hereafter she Is to have
parts.
Miss George has many friends in
Portland who will recall with interest
the girl who made her first noteworthy
advances in ier chosen profession of
music when a student in this city.
This budding star Is a daughter of
Mrs. Jonnle Allan George, formerly a
teacher of the first primary class at the
Woodlawn school at Portland.
''She could carry a tune before she
could talk," says her mother with en
thusiasm. -
Miss George herself said: "I seem
to have been born wanting to sing.
It's my life, my ambition."
"Do you really hope some day to be
a prima donna?"
"I love the work, and whatever the
result I'm going to study, and-sing, and
hope on. I know I have a whole lot. to
learn."
Her teachers, however, speak iu
terms of praise of the young singer's
voice. Soma who have tested it say
she gives promise of becoming one of
'the highest sopranos In America.
She began her musical studies in Lit
tle Rock. Ark., under Professor Ferd
inand Armellini at the tender age of
I. It was Professor Armellini from
whom she received her first ideas of
dramatic singing. In Portland she con
tinued her studies, taking instruction
from Professor J. Claire Monteith and
others.
She is a graduate of the Portland
High School. At 17 years old she was
elected assistant to the supervisor of
music of the Portland public schools.
This position was given her immedi
ately on her graduation In recognition
of talent shown while in school. Her
work in the position gave Miss George
an acquaintance with every school
teacher in Portland and her face is
familiar to thousands of children whom
she taught the scale and developed
along musical lines.
Miss George laughingly referred to
the class prophecy made In the Car
dinal, the Portland High School annual,
at the time of her graduation, when,
with the enthusiasm of youth, the
prophet spoke of meeting on board an
Atlantic liner "Miss Kathleen George,
a famous opera singer."
"I didn't realize then," she said, "that
I would actually be in opera work so
soon."
In Portland Miss George sang fre
quently for charity. Her face and her
clear soprano were familiar at the Sea
men's Friend Society, the Patton Old
Ladles' Home and in the charity, wards
of the hospitals. In Seattle Miss George
was prominent in university sorority
circles. She belongs to the PI Beta
Phi and was a social leader at the uni
versity. She has been prominent in
theatricals at the school and her voice
is recognized as one of the best in
college.
Her reoent debut on the stage has
been the toplo of' conversation in
sorority circles the past three weeks.
She has been the attraction for a num
ber of theater parties since she tirst
left school for the stag

One Depositor, Hearing of Rush for
Money, Drops Dead From
Heart Failure.
LOS ANGELES, May 8. One of the
most peculiar runs In the history of
finance started on the Los Angeles All
Night and Day Bank at 8 o'olock tills
morning and at midnight there was
still a line of several hundred in wait
ing. President N. J. Skinner at 11 o'clock
tonight Issued a statement in which he
said that every depositor would receive
dollar for dollar and that the Institu
tion is solvent.
President Skinner attributed the run
to a rumor that, the bank had been
refused , admission to the Los Angeles
Clearing House Association. Because
of its methods of doing business, the
bank could not close at any time of the
day and for this reason beoame liable
to a constant line of those who desired
to draw out their money.
As many as TOO persons were in line
at 6 o'clock, but the number decreased
slightly towards midnight. Indications,
however, are that many will remain in
line all night. Sandwiches and coffee
had been served to many' in line dur
ing the early part ot the night.
Mr. Skinner's statement says that at
8 o'clock In the morning the bank had
available cash to the amount of $760.
000. He estimates that up to 11 o'olock
tonight $125,000 had been paid out.
while $75,000 had been deposited.
During the run Israel Bchullman, a
depositor, dropped dead from heart
failure.
