Music-lovers were astonished at the announcement of Marion Talley,
youngest prima donna ever to win a place at the Metropolitan Opera House;
New York, that she is to abandon her career and become a farmer.
STAY ON THE FARM AND BE HAPPY,
MARION TALLEY, FAMOUS SINGER, SAYS
Note The entire music-loving world
has been startled, by the announcement
of Marion Talley, world-famous prima
donna of the Metropolitan Opera House,
New York, that she is retiring from
her operatic career to go into farming
as a profession.
The meteoric career of Marion Talley
has been both lucrative and brilliant.
She made her debut in 1926, and three
years of singing in leading operatic
roles have established an enviable rep
utation for her. Now, at 22, an age
when few singers even get well start
ed, she plans to abandon all the glory
of her career to be a happy farmer.
The famous Kansas City girl, whose
debut was one of the events in musical
history, will make her last public ap
pearance in Cleveland on May 4th. Im
mediately afterwards she will go west
with the intention of purchasing a
farm.
Her reasons for leaving her spectac
ular career at its height are set forth
in the exclusive statement below, which
carries a message for every farm boy
and girl in America.
Here is a girl who achieved every
thing that the cities offer wealth, fame
and all that goes with it yet she flings
all these aside to take up Farm Life.
We present this story in the hope
that it will serve as a striking example
inspiring American youths to find their
happiness on the farm rather than seek
ing it far afield.
To the Farm Boys and Girls of
America
By MARION TALLEY
Exclusive Through Autocaster
News Service.
I advise every boy and girl in
America fortunate enough to live
on a farm to stay there. Farm life
is wonderful. It's the only natural
life. I have tasted the glamour of
a successful career in the big cities
of America, the very thing t that
lures the farm boy and girl to met
ropolitan centers yet am unhesi
tatingly abandoning it all for the
sake of life on a farm.
After all, we all are the products
of nature and the closer we can get
back to nature, the better for us.
There's absolutely nothing more
healthful than working in dirt One
is strong and healthy when plowing
and breathing the fresh country air.
On the 'farms of America, one ob
tains the freshest and best food.
Food that comes right from the'
ground to the kitchen. In the cities,
it is often difficult to obtain fresh,
pure food.
There is no greater opportunity
for happiness anywhere than there
is on the farm. Now there are col
leges and universities not far from
farms education is accessible to
all, and when one studies and lives
on a farm one can readily concen
trate and avoid the distractions of
city life.
I am going into real, honest-to-
goodness hard farm labor, and ex
pect to make it pay. My farm will
not be merely a toy. At least it
will pay for itself, and I know I
will enjoy life more. The glamour
of a successful career is as nothing
compared to the happiness I anti
cipate in the country. There I will
breathe the air people were meant
to breathe, and I will continue there
in my musical studies for my own
pleasure and the pleasure of my
family.
The plaudits of audiences, the tri
umphs one makes in the opera, the
nattering notices in the press I
would not be human if I denied that
these things gave me pleasure. But
I lived without them before, and
can live without them again.
I have acquaintances who have
left farms where they lived under
ideal conditions to go to cities
where they are forced to struggle
for a mere existence. I have al
ways been sorry for them.
How rare It is that a country per
son becomes ill, and how prevalent
disease is in a big city! In a city
people are always talking of their
operations. In the country, people
are too healthy and too busy to
have operations.
I am going to the farm because
it is healthier because I waflt to
own a place on earth because I
want the great pleasure of seeing
things grow.
And I want to be among the far
mers of the land, in an informal
and natural atmosphere where one
can be oneself and enjoy life to the
full.

For the unlovely interior of one's
dresser the shops offer fascinating
pads of plain or figured silk in har
mony with the color scheme of the
bedroom. Or we may make these
accessories at home at very little
cost.
The silk should be cut the exact
size of the bottom of the dresser
drawers, allowing for seams of
course. Line the pads with a layer
of cotton sprinkled with sachet,
stitch the edges together, and quilt
the pad in a simple design with silk
thread of contrasting color.
