It is not often that an opera W com
posed which deals with the male voces
almost to the exclusion of the prima
donne, but "La Forza del Destino,
sung nt the Metropolitan Opera House
last evening to a capacity house, is one
of these. Tho principal feature of the
work is that tbe baritone, tenor and
bass voices find nn expression melodl
call that is not often accorded to nny
one of them (excepting the tenor), let
alone three. Perhaps Mr. Gatti spoke
to the cognoscenti when. In oue of his
little statements nncnt tho opera, ho
said thnt n very remarkable cast Is nec
essary for this work It is, and the
Metropolitan Opcrh Co , at present far
richer In grent mnle voices nnd actors
than In the female of the operatic spe
cies, has the people to produce it.
Bevond nil doubt the opera was 6nc
of tho great "hits ' of the season and
drew one of the largest audiences that
the company has attracted during the

year. How much of thin was duo. to
tho beauty of tho opera and how much
to the members) of tho cast would be
difficult (or, perhaps, embarrassing is
tho better word) to say. Of course,
Mr. Caruso was the star, as, he always
Is, even granting tho fact that the pnrt
does not suit him so welt as some
others, but Mr. Amato, with his thor
ough understanding ot tho manner in
which to sing n bravura baritone part,
and Mr. Mnrdonos, With his superb
voice and equally fine character deline
ation, were "close seconds," In the es
timation of the audience, and deservedly
so. The score of "La Forzn del Des
tino" is replete with solos nnd cnsomble
numbers for the male voices, nnd -all ot
them were magnificently sung. The dra
matic demands of the opera arc small,
compared with its vocal requirements,
but, such ns they are, they were ade
quately met.
It is not to be gathered, however, that
the female parts were not well done.
It is simply that Verdi, in this work,
has given precedence to the male voices.
Miss Ponsclle as "Leonora" and Miss
Gordon ns "PrrHollla" both Sang and
acted their parts finely. Miss Ponselle
more than justifies the promise which
she gare. fe-her debut last season, and
which she hag steadily augmented ever
since. It was Miss Gordon's first big
part In thiclty, as hitherto sue lias ap
peared In comparatively 'unimportant
roles. She made a most prepossess
In BO'sy visually and sang the. pnrt
well. The solo, with chorus, unaccom
panied by the orchestra, at the close of
tho third act was not only benutlfully
sung but, apparently, at least, she
played the drum part herself, with a
rare sense of rhythm and a surcness of
stroke betokening much private practice,
The sole comic relief In the op"ni
that of father Malltone, was splendidly
given by Thomas Cholmers. The minor
parts Were nil well taken, as they al
ways arc In a Metropolitan oast nnd
Mr. Papl conducted with n duo regard
to the rolatlvo alues of vocal and or
chestral parts.

"WE HAVE NEVER FOUGHT WOMEN & CHILDREN"
Herbert Hoover
The American Friends' Service Committee, 20 South Twelfth Street, Philadelphia,
representing the Quakers of America, has assumed entire responsibility of feeding the
undernourished children of Germany, in addition to their general relief work in France,
Serbia, Vienna. Poland and the Baltic provinces.
Appeal for German Children
The Friends are working in close co-operation with the European Children's
Fund, which is giving one supplementary meal each day to nearly 3,000,000 chil
dren in nine countries of Central and Eastern Europe. The Quakers will follow the
same methods in Germany.
"Gravest Food Crisis Will Be in April and May"
(Cable from the Friends' Unit, Jan 30, 1920)
Ther- are today 10,000,000 undernourished The Friends pay for personnel, office and
cr.ildren .n Germany. A single meal costs 5 overhead expenses. The European Children's
cents. To feed 1,000,000 children six months, Fund, of which Herbert Hoover is Chairman,
January to June, until the next harvest, will provides out of a special fund all expenses of
cost $9,000,000. transportation.
KPQSl KIM WW?)
In appealing for funds to provide food for undernourished
children in Europe at the present time, Herbert Hoover said:
"Last year the American people spent literally billions of dollars in saving the
whole of Europe from famine. The present cry is but an echo of that which then
existed. We cannot allow our greatness to be marred by a failure to meet this last
remaining call upon our hearts."

COMPETITION
The hardest competition that
Pierce -Arrows are called upon to
meet is the competition of other
Pierce -Arrows. Those of today
are the rivals of those of a year ago.
What owners thought was the last
word in the creation and applica
tion of power was the last word
only at the time it was spoken.
Dual valves, double ignition, improved trans
mission, and hfgh speed gear shifting are new
words which mean greater power, flexibility,
responsiveness, safety and comfort than even
Pierce -Arrow owners thought possible.
