Hill's so-called ]
| Chummy musical revue, "Odds and .

1 seven months at the Republic Thea- j

I is (he work of O. B. Bell and Mark;

Jeanne Gordon, Soprano, '
Just: Drifts,lnto Opera
:!'
.! Jeanne Gordon is one of Maestro
, Creatore's happiest new discoveries.
11 This talented Canadian singer, like]
I many other fair members in the social
, | whirl, never dreamed that her musi
! cal studies would ever land In her in j
Cgrnnd opera,
i Jeanne Gordon, who will appear at
] | the Orpheum Theater on Monday in
"Aida," studied singing like thousands
] 1 of other American girls merely for an
i accomplishment, just to have h better
:' understanding of musical art. That
[lis where her ambitions came to
. | stand still. But fate willed It olher
, I wise, and like In most other instances,
fate once again won out.
] The young singer, whose husband
[! went to war shortly after the first
! [ guns were fired, went to New York to
study with one of the best vocal mas
. ters. There she was heard by Crea
; tore, and it did not take the great con
ductor a second guess before he de
[ oided that Jeanne Gordon was the
' very iflezzo soprano for whom he had
been looking ail these years.
] Here was an artist, one who was not
'only blessed with a wonderful vocal
i | organ, but also with splendid dramatic
• talents. Add to all this grace, beauty
j and youth, and what more could the
most exacting opera conductor ask as
I his choice tot' an opera star?
For the longest time Jeanne Gordon
, could not l.eileve herself, and even
. to this day the whole tiling seems like
I I n wonderft I dream to her. Fortunate—
■ ly nothing has happened as yet to
• mar the beautiful dream, for the
! I voung artist has traveled on and on
1 ! faster than most artists, and has never
' yet strayed off the path loading to the
.Hall of Fame.
[by the way the most hlghbrowisli
' musical city in the United States.
] were not satisfied with the Brooklyn
I tribute, here is one scribe from that
'city who goes e\"en one better:
i "Enthusiasm was on tap at the Bos
i ton Opera House last evening, where
> the Creatore Grand Opera Company
it opened a fortnight's season with
, ! 'Rigoletto.' The enthusiasm became
• ' more marked as the opera progressed,
j until at the close of Hie big act, the
third, there were curtain calls, botli
' for principals and for the conductor
H almost without count."
• I And so the song of praises continue
i! to come from all parts of the land
I j wherever Hie Creatore Opera Cotn
ij pany has done its bit In helialf * of
! musical culture, so there is no chance
II left even for the worst skeptics to
i doubt but what tiie music lovers of
11 this city are scheduled for a genuine
11 treat.

We believe that we can serve you v.
j better now by reverting to our for
i nier policy bf shipping exclusively
1 through the jobber, and. effective im-
J mediately, no* more drop shipments
| will be made.
While we have put on a night

j bled our production, we arc still
unable to till our back orders and
j won't be able to give each jobber
! all the Vapoßub he wants. Hence,
I it will he necessary for the jobbers
to continue distributing Vapoßub in
small lots only. But we Will be
able to furnish each jobber at least
twice the quantity of Vapoßub that
he purchased for the corresponding
month lust year, so there should not p
be any difficulty in your getting your
pro rata share.
i We feel that the public appreci
ates the service that the retail and j
wholesale drug trade have rendered
the country in this time of stress.
We wish to express to both branches
of the trade our thanks for the kind
co-operation extended us in our ef
fort to meet this emergency.
