The late Henry T. Finck, brother of Mrs. J. Nebelung of 812 E. Sycamore street, Anaheim, and for 43 years a music critic of the New York Evening Post, was a personal friend of Madame Schumann-Heink and wrote of her in his 18th and last book, "My Adventures in the Golden Age of Music," issued in 1926 and reissued in 1927. Below is the first of two installments of portions of that book as reprinted in the Oregon Statesman, Salem, Ore., last November. The second installment will appear next week. "A good deal of mischief has been done in the operatic world by the notion that a contralto cannot rise to the same dizzy heights of fame as a soprano. At the Metropolitan Opera House it happened repeatedly that a contralto or a mezzo-soprano damaged her voice and shortened her career by insisting on singing soprano parts. "It cannot be denied that there are fewer great characters to impersonate by singers with low voices than by singers with high voices. Yet Brandt was highly honored and as much admired in her years at the Metropolitan as Lehman, though she entirely lacked Lilli's personal charms. "Ernestine Schumann - Heink also lacked the beauty of Venus. Except in her early stage years, when she was a sort of maid of all work in the Hamburg Opera House, she did not aspire to soprano parts but lavished her whole voice and soul on the roles (she was the greatest of all Ortruds, Erdas, Brangaenes) I recall, with always renewed emotion, the warning scene in the second act of 'Tristan:' how those big, glorious, rotund, luscious tones of hers floated down from the parapet into the auditorium after mingling with the mellifluous orchestral tones—I shiver deliciously as I write this. "No, I am not tired of music after all; THAT is one of the things I want to hear again. To me, it has always seemed the climax of the most emotional of all operas."

The Chief of Police of the City of Anaheim is hereby authorized and required to establish and maintain, and to designate upon the surface of the roadway by appropriate devices, marks or white lines, crosswalks approximately equal in width to the adjacent sidewalk at all intersections where, in his opinion, there is particular danger to pedestrians crossing the roadway; in addition, he may establish crosswalks of not less than three nor more than twenty feet in width as near the middle as he may deem practicable of any block in said business district. He shall also establish a crosswalk, and mark and maintain the same on Broadway Street between Lemon and Los Angeles Stroets, at a point opposite the south door of the United States Post Office, which crosswalk shall be designated by two parallel lines or markers or white paint or any color of paint contrasting, with the street pavement, starting at the north curb of Broadway approximately opposite the said south door of said post office, and running at approximately right angles from said north curb across Broadway to the south curb of said Broadway. The Chief of Police is hereby authorized and directed to establish and maintain crosswalks at such other places within the City of Anaheim as he shall deem necessary for the safety of traffic in said city.

Except in her early stage years, when she was a sort of maid of all work in the Hamburg Opera House, she did not aspire to soprano parts but lavished her whole voice and soul on the roles suited to her, with the result that she became as widely known and admired and loved throughout the United States as any soprano or tenor, excepting Farrar and Caruso who alone commanded more attention and higher emoluments. "The first time I met Schumann-Heink personally was when I went behind the scenes to congratulate her on something she had done particularly well. "She greeted me with open arms—I thought she was going to hug me effusively for the nice things I had written about her in the Evening Post. "Then she said: 'I am afraid you will be disappointed in me personally for I am nichts als eine gewohnliche deutsche Hausfrau (nothing but an ordinary German housewife).' (With the dots over the o in gewohnliche, giving it a sound that cannot be duplicated in English). "I laughed and said that the main thing was that she was a big artist, with a big heart. 'That heart pulses through everything you do, and that's why I adore you.' "Big hearts are lamentably rare among singers. To Schumann-Heink her roles were as dear as her beloved children, and that was perhaps the chief secret of her huge success. "Her voice, too, was big; as big as Nordica's, if not bigger, with a ground swell in it coming from the lower vibrations of a low voice; a tidal surge that fairly swept her hearers off their feet though they were sitting. "When I gave up my career as a critic after 43 years of service, I felt as if I never wanted to hear any more music. But there were a few exceptions. "I would gladly have walked down from Harlem and paid for honored and as much admired in her years at the Metropolitan as Lehman, though she entirely lacked Lilli's personal charms." $5,000 need to finance a proven money making project.

HILL & NEALER MOTORS Phone Fullerton 673 312 N. Spadra Fullerton Acts and Facts of Townsendism By Walter R. Robb This week's column will deviate from its usual class of information. It will recite the highlights of last Saturday's 19th district Townsend convention held in the junior high school auditorium in Riverside. I do this because the convention happenings are of great importance to my Townsend readers. These conventions are held semi-annually. Under the new national Townsend organization set-up these conventions become of supreme importance to the Townsend movement. Through their deliberations the membership of the congressional district board is elected. This board's membership under the new set-up becomes responsible for instituting methods of raising finance to support needed activities in the district on the part of clubs, promoting their growth numerically and otherwise, adding to the already organized clubs other new clubs, employing a district manager and supervising his work, and in considerable measure directing and formulating the movement's political policies in the district. Saturday's convention was of necessary a more complete and more efficient organization in each district than has before existed. Saturday's convention was called to formulate through the election of a district board an executive functioning organization for the district. The district includes the counties of Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino. Rev. S. L. Wingert of Yucalpa was made permanent chairman of the convention by a vote of the delegates. Arthur E. Gale of Corona was made permanent secretary in the same manner. A roll call of the delegates revealed a total of 194 delegates qualified to vote, who were seated in the convention. Nominating and credential committees were appointed and functioned with efficiency. Selected from the nominations of the committee and those made from the floor the following were elected to membership on the 19th district Townsend board: From Orange county: E. E. Proud, La Habra; John L. White, Laguna Beach, and Herbert F. Kenny of Santa Ana. Those from Riverside county were: George Serkness of Hemet; C. F. Alexander, Corona, and Dr. C. S. Harper of Riverside. The ones from San Bernardino county were: Rev. S. L. Wingert of Yucalpa; George V. Decker of Chino and W. R. Cogswell of San Bernardino. A telegram from Dr. Francis E. Townsend in Washington, D.C., to the convention was read expressing gratification because of the splendid harmony and good fellowship existing among the Townsend clubs of the 19th district. Congressman Harry R. Sheppard of the district also telegraphed the convention his and Mrs. Sheppard's greetings and good wishes for the year 1937. His message also conveyed brief references to progress being made in congress pertaining to Townsend matters. It concluded with the affirmation that although he was board convened in special session to organize and train emergency business. Rev. S. Wingert was made president by E. F. Proud first. Opera Company to Present "Carmen" For the first time on any stage the change of guards in the act of "Carmen" will be staged horseback, according to New Carossio, stage director of production, who promises the best performance of "Carmen" seen in California at the Shaw Auditorium tomorrow night. When asked why other companies, such as the Metro Italian and Chicago Civic did use horses in their product Carossio explained that only Los Angeles could trained horse be found for this purpose. More picture companies have allowed for trained animals in various productions and Carmen is taking advantage of this situation, in order to give Los Angeles something new and unique grand opera. Milk, Butter Price In State Increase The most striking changes dairy prices during 1936 occurred in most of the major sheds. Butter prices were higher than in any year since 1930, average about three cents per pound higher than in 1935. Cheese prices for 1936 averaged one cent higher than previous year and were also lower than any year since Evaporated milk is now quoted about 20 cents per case and prices prevailing at the beginning of 1936. board convened in special session to organize and train emergency business. Rev. S. Wingert was made president by E. F. Proud first. POSITION AS COMPANION LADY OR SEMI-INVALID BY CURSE. 219 Third South tf12 ED TO FINANCE A PROVEN MAKING PROJECT.

USED CARS sponsible for instituting methods of raising finance to support needed activities in the district on the part of clubs, promoting their growth numerically and otherwise, adding to the already organized clubs other new clubs, employing a district manager and supervising his work, and in considerable measure directing and formulating the movement's political policies in the district. Saturday's convention was of particular importance because it was held and conducted solely by 19th district Townsendites. Hereto-fore such conventions have always been under the direction of either state or national officers or directors. Dr. Francis E. Townsend,national leader of the Townsend movement, recently decreed the movement had sufficiently progressed to allow of the leadership in each congressional district of the nation being intrusted with the directing of its own district affairs. This decision and edict of the Townsend leader made splendid harmony and good fellowship existing among the Townsend clubs of the 19th district. Congressman Harry R. Sheppard of the district also telegraphed the convention his and Mrs. Sheppard's greetings and good wishes for the year 1937. His message also conveyed brief references to progress being made in congress pertaining to Townsend matters. It concluded with the affirmation that although he was now elected as a congressman and in Washington, but he still was an advocate of the Townsend plan and would work for its interests in the congress now in session. The convention voted to send the following worded message to both Dr. Townsend and Congressman Sheppard: "Good wishes and assurances of continued loyalty." The convention adjourned with the Townsend pledge of loyalty repeated in concert. At 5:30 o'clock Saturday evening after the convention had adjourned, the newly elected district board convened in special session to organize and train emergency business. Rev. S. Wingert was made president; the board; E. E. Proud, first president; Dr. C. S. Harper, and vice president; W. R. C. well, third vice president; O. Alexander, secretary, and John White was made treasurer. Mediately upon being organized the matter of selecting a director organizer came up for consideration. It was unanimously agreed to retain the services of J. Walsh as the 19th district officer. Next week this column continue with its series of articles to Townsend plan economics policies.

If you have not already mailed your contribution for Christmas Seals sent you, this will remind you it is not too late to share in our work.

A total of $7415.21 has been received toward a county goal of $10,000 which is needed in order that clinic and educational service need not be curtailed but increased. Anaheim has contributed $962.43. The tuberculosis association urges each of the 1233 residents of Anaheim who have not yet done so to send in their contributions. During the past year, 553 people were examined in the Friday afternoon chest clinics, of which 100 were of the Mexican race. There were diagnoses made of 47 cases of active tuberculosis, of which 16 were in the Mexican race. This clinic service is for the purpose of examining people not eligible at the county hospital but who still cannot afford the usual charges for specialist's examination and laboratory work. The sound film on tuberculosis, "Behind the Shadows", was shown 90 times to approximately 8,000 people during the fall months and is again being offered to organizations and churches who have not yet seen it because their programs were already planned and too full to work in this film which shows and explains the "modern methods" used to uncover, prevent and treat tuberculosis, the chief cause of death to young adults. Anyone who wishes to schedule "Behind the Shadows" is invited to communicate with the Orange County Tuberculosis & Health Association, Ltd.
