HARD TEST FOR SINGERS.
Making Talking Machine Records Is a
Difficult Task.
it is well known that the grand
opera stars make a great deal of
money singing into the talking ma
chines of various concerns, in order
that these companies may manufac
ture the records lor sale, but the
fact that almost without exception
a grand opera star would much
rather sing before the most critical
audience than before a talking ma
chine is by no means generally
known.
In the first place it is rather un
canny standing in a big empty room
be! ore a mammoth horn protruding
from between curtains, with the
conductor away up high where he
will not interrupt the sound waves,
and the “orchestra” composed of
weird looking instruments made
especially for this work.
The singer stands on a little
wooden platform at the mouth of
the receiving trumpet.
A red light is flashed, and the
queer little orchestra gets to work.
Phen at the crucial moment the
artist has to sing to this strange
little assembly with the same zest
he would under the inspiration of
brilliant lights, beautiful clothes,
splendid settings and an applaud
ing audience. It is an ordeal, be
cause he has to sing with far great
er care in front of the talking ma
chine than is required when an
audience is pleased. The slightest
variation * means a start over, a
slight clearing of the throat, a deep
br.eath or slight shuffle of the feet
—and the revolving disks record
every one of those faults —and the
record is spoiled. But these faults
are all criticised by an experienced
record director, and it is his busi
ness to see that nothing short of
the perfect records are produced—
because from these first molds are
made all of the thousands of rec
ords that go into so many homes.
When the artist has finished the
record is played over and the im
perfections criticised. The weak
spots are rehearsed and the whole
trying business commenced over
again.
And so it is acknowledged by
many of the theatrical and musical
hall stars that to produce a record
of pure and distinct tone is far
harder than to make their way suc
cessfully through a whole operatic
score It is a tremendous task to
get a set of the perfect records
from the opera favorites. It has
been said that Caruso has been
forced to spend more than four
hours of untiring work before he
was able to perfect his “Ridi Pagli
acci” in tile opera “1 Pagliacci,”
and in that time was forced to
make more than thirty fresh starts
before a disk of pure and distinct
tone was obtained. Washington
Post.
Ended the Agony.
The late Count de Lesseps never
seemed to lose sight of the educa
tion of his children, even in the
smallest detail. One morning at
breakfast a beautiful Dresden tea
cup was br.oken. ‘‘Ah!” cried the
countess, “a disaster! Two more
of that set will now be broken. It
always happens so.’’ “Are you so
superstitious,’’ asked the count, “as
really to believe that two more will
be broken?’’ “1 know it.’’ “Then
let us get it off our minds.” And,
taking two of the cups by the han
dles, he dashed them together. The
anger and dismay of the countess
proved conclusively that she had
not seriously held to her supersti
tion. It also loosed any hold the
absurd idea may have had on the
minds of the children.
Insidious Humor.
A budding author who was mak
ing excursions into humor sent a
paragraph to the editor of a daily
paper. Not finding it printed with
in a reasonable time or hearing
from the editorial department, he
wrote about its welfare: “1 sent
you a joke about ten days ago. I
have heard nothing respecting its
safe receipt and should be glad to
hear whether you have seen it.”
The editor’s reply was as follows:
“Your joke arrived safely, but up
to the present we have not seen it.”

Condensed Tragedy.
Condensed tragedies form a
tempting theme for the “funny
man,” this from London Pick Me
Up is not without merit: First,
Jones poisons his wife’s cat; second,
he professes a deep sorrow for its
disappearance; third, he offers $lO
reward for its recovery; fourth,
numerous animals are brought for
inspection; fifth, Mrs. Jones identi
fies one.

WOODEN FURNITURE TO GO
Thomas A. Edison Sees the Day When
Steel Will Take Its Place for
Such Purposes.
Sanitation, safety and ultimately
economy will bring about, it is
thought by some, a substitution of
iron and steel furniture for the
wooden pieces now in general use.
Today in office and public and semi
public buildings and manufacturing
plants, iron and steel furniture is
replacing wooden, the Iron Trade
Review says.
Several important improvements,
both in the design and method of
manufacturing this type of furniture
have been devised, better to meet the
demand. The case of cutting and
shaping sheet metal to meet almost
any design tends to lessen its man
ufacturing cost and increase its pop
ularity.
“An absolute law,” -said Thomas
A. Edison recently, “appears to be
operating to substitute steel for wood
in the making of furniture. This
law is the increasing cost of wool,
and soon all furniture will be made
of steel, since the steel required for
a given piece of furniture costs onlv
one-fifth as much as the wood would
cost for the same piece of furniture.
Steel furniture is light, since onlv a
little steel is required. And polished
steel takes a beautiful finish. It can
be finished in perfect imitation of
mahogany, walnut, cherry, maple,
oak or any other wood. The babies
of the next generation will sit in
steel high chairs and eat from steel
tables. They will not know what
wooden furniture is.”

QUICKER THAN TOWEL
During a thunderstorm in Deal,
England, Minnie Rogers, aged sev
enteen, was walking along one of the
small back streets of the town carry
ing a number of umbrellas, etc.,
when a vivid flash of lightning, evi
dently attracted by the steel frame of
one of the umbrellas she w’as hold
ing, ripped open her own umbrella,
struck her and threw her violently
to the ground, says the Strand.
There was only one man in the street
at the time and he assisted her to
rise. Strangely enough when she
had done so she found that all her
clothes, umbrella and cap were per
fectly dry, whereas before she had
been drenched, for the rain poured
down in torrents. Her description
of her feelings was: “I felt just as
though my head had been stung by a
wasp, there was a singing noise in my
ears and I seemed to see a bright
light, like the sun, shining through
my umbrella.” With the exception
of her hair being slightly singed she
sustained no injury.
“GOOD MORNING!”
When we are at our best, a flood
of life pours itself out in the simple
old words “Good morning,” —a
flood of meaning which strains to
express itself in a thousand ways,
but has to be content with verbal
symbols. Our physical and vital
energies, our love, our playfulness,
our stores of gratitude for the
world’s past gifts, all that is calling
us toward the future, comes rushing
out in the time-mellowed greeting.
The depths of us, the concentrated
and imprisoned energy of our inmost
life, calls across the distance to the
unseen depths of our fellow.—Rich
ard C. Cabot, in Atlantic.

KNAPP SCHOOL OF
COUNTRY LIFE
First Institution Devoted El
oluslvely to Rural Lite.
When a school out to be prac
tical, to teach people hoW to practice
best the things they must practice in
some sort every day of their lives, the
thing that bulks largest before that
school is country life. At least, that
is the view taken by the men who
worked out the ’Jlau of George Peabody
College For Teachers, at Nashville,
Tenn., when it began trying to be prac
tical.
First, it is named the Seaman A.
Knapp School of Country Life; second,
it is the first school ever established in
the world devoted exclusively to the
study of country life problems; third,
it has enough money back of it, se
curely invested, to work steadily and
definitely toward whatever end it has
in view.
Those are the things that the Seaman
A. Knapp School of Country Life is.
The thing it proposes to do is this:
The Knapp School of Country Life
is not an agr.cultural college. It teach
es agiiL-uiture, to Le sure, but as a
part of the general scheme of life in
the country. It teaches the making of
farm homes quite as much as it does
the making of farm crops. It teaches
rural credits and rural culture. It
teaches how to get the biggest returns
from work in the country and then
how to apply those returns to get the
most possible out of living in the coun
try. It seeks, in short, to put the peo
ple who live in the country in position
to enjoy to the full the matchless pos
Abilities of life in the country.
The physical means of attaining that
result are to be a building on the cam
pus of George Peabody College For
Teachers, designed and equipped for
just this kind of work, and a farm of
200 acres some miles away. It is not
an experimental farm. It is a farm on
which students are shown how to do
the things they are taught in the class
rooms—tlie demonstration idea of Dr.
Seaman A. Knapp, in honor of whose
work the school is named.
The farm buildings are not to be par
ticularly fine. They are intended to be
just the best type of buildings econom
ically possible on a farm of 200 acres,
neither more nor less than that. They
are the kind of buildings that can be
reproduced on the farms of the south.
A primary school—just a district
school—is maintained adjacent to the
farm. Its pupils are not selected.
They are the kind of pupils the country
teachers have in charge everywhere.
The school building and grounds are
not costly. They are the kind of build
ing and grounds a district school ev
erywhere may have. But they are
made the most of. All their possibili
ties are realized. They can be repro
duced in any country community, giv
ing the best practically possible in
rural school equipment.
Those are the physical means. The
mental means comprise a corps of prac-

coincidently with George Peabody Col

school opening June 25. In addition
to the regular faculty a number of oth

the summer work. Every phase of
rural life is given consideration.
