A committee of faculty members,

Crusoe may yet become as common a-j

the Grand Canyon now that Professor
William Alanson Bryan, former mem

Hawaii, has suggested to the Chilean
government that the island of Juan
Fernandez be made a national park.
It all came about in this way. Pro
fessor Bryan is vice-president of the
Hawaiian Historical society and the
prepounder of the theory that at one
time there was a large continent in
the Pacific This continent sank
leaving only Its peaks as islands, he
says. To prove his , theory he had
taken three years furlough for the
purpose of touring the ' South Seas.
He recently visited Easter island and
then Juan Fernandez, the latter being
390 miles off the Chilean coast. Juan
Fernandez Island Is the one on which
Alexander Selkirk was put ashore.
Selkirk Is supposed to have been the
original Robinson Crusoe and it is
generally believed that his adven

"My suggestion that the Chilean

writes Professor Bryan "has been
flatteringly received and commented
upon by the Chilean press. Juan
Fernandez is Ideally situated and en
dowed as a natural pleasure ground.
Tha fishing there excels anything I
have ever seen."
Professor Bryan spent a week on
the island and slept one night in the

FAME DENIED AMERICAN GIRL
AT HOME IS WON ABROAD
Edith Mason Has Only to Appear at Mont Carlo to Be Hailed as
. Greatest Artist of the Present Age.

THIS story is bound to create a
sensation in our operatic circles,
and especially -in well-known
centers where great organisations,
maintained at colossal expense, pre
sent to faithful publics (full of faith)
the acquisitions of their world-wide
search for the most beautiful voices,
talents and reputations.
Here is the American . girl, Edith
Mason. Her real name is Edith
Barnes, from a well-known Boston
family.
She was born in Boston, studied In
Boston, Jiad all her musical educa
tion at the New England Conserva
tory of Musio and In New York. She
made her first debut (role of Nedda)
with the Boston Opera company, un
der Henry Russell. We have got to
give this to him to take a raw Amer
ican girl, not trained in Europe! Im
mediately she got an offer to come to
Europe, to sing in Italy.
This American girl, however, has an
unquenchable ardor to sing in Amer
ica as will be seen. She joined the
Metropolitan Opera company. The
verdict was "the best voice In the
Metropolitan opera house." Yet she
never got to sing the parts which she
naturally wanted to sing, but. win
kept remorselessly In secondary roles. ,
Esrope Reeogatses Volce.
In Europe such a voice bursts oythe
world in a night a single appearance
Is sufficient; and the opportunities,
the roles which grace tt. are urged
upon It. with rejoicing, by the operatic
management which has the luck to
find it; and great rival organisations,
as distant as Chicago is from New
York and more, rush their most flat
tering ambassadors to obtain dates.
There results a bidding for the fresh
voice, a bidding which resembles
nothing so nrtich as Its antithesis
would be a bidding from a foreign
land for Europe's "tired nightingales"
of reputation.
At the Metropolitan Edith Mason
was permitted to sing MIcaela In
"Carmen." a one-act opera, "L'Ora
colo," and in an English opera by
De Koven, "Canterbury Pilgrims."
Nedda In "Pagliacci," and so on; but
she could not get the satisfaction to
which she was entitled by her voice,
talent and vocal science and which
every artist craves -to create great
roles like that of Marguerite in
Faust."
In "La Boheme" she had to sing
Musstta and naturally wanted to sing
Mimi. Butterfly, Manon, etc
I have It from her own l'.ps that
Gattl-Casazza, the great man of the
MetroDolitan. said to her textually:
"But you have never sung any of
those parts. I cannot trust a leading
role to a person who has not made a
reputation in it!"
Strug-ale Given fp.
When she insisted, it came out more
precisely:
"Americans," said Gatti-Casasza,
"Americans do not want to hear an
American beginner In a principal
Dart!"
Such, it would seem, was his judg
ment. It remains to be learned, how
ever, on last how much effort and ex
perience such verdict could be based.

Came the end of the war. with Its
long, slow after-ending. When the

go to Europe, saying that "perhaps an
Arnerican will get a hearing there, if
she canndt get It among her own peo

She came to France and was at once

In leading roles there was so great

The Necessity of Music
Is Met by a Good
Player Piano
Music is as essential to the welfare of the -mind
as is exercise to the body. It rests
and relaxes. It refreshes and exhilarates.
But in too many homes the piano stands
mute, silent a piece of beautiful furniture,
but nothing more.
But you can play the piano. You can
summon its voice, govern its moods, select
its melodies. Of course, we are speaking
of the Player Piano which anybody can
play.
Choose this piano carefully. It will be
with you for many years, responsive to your
moods, a witness to your taste.
We have Player Pianos to suit almost any purse.
We carry the Aeolian Co. line (the famous Pianola
and the marvelous Duo Art). With the conven
ient payment terms, which we gladly arrange, it
is today an easy matter to own a good Player
Piano.
