Four Added To Laguna Opera Board
Festival of Opera of Laguna Beach announced the receipt of an anonymous gift of $500 and the addition of four new members to the board of directors in a statement released by Lloyd J. Seilset, Opera Festival President.
The new board members are Mrs. Merrill Johnson, Mario Taraglia, Max Rabinowitsh and Mrs. Ruth Ann Vierling.
"With the wonderful support that we have received, both privately and publicly, we cannot help but have another superbly and magnificently successful opera season. It's written in the stars — if you'll pardon the pun," said Seilset. He was referring to the fact that Festival of Opera plays in the Irvine Bowl under the open sky and has imported big name stars from The Metropolitan, La Scala, San Francisco and other opera houses to perform leading roles.
"Rigoletto" plays Aug. 16 and 17; "Marriage of Figaro," Aug. 23 and 24; and "Madame Butterfly", Aug. 30, 31 and Sept. 1.

Beatrice Fairfax had just written the words for the waltz, "The Merry Widow," folks were investing in the famous Montezuma mining deal, folks in Los Angeles were raising chickens and turkeys, and everyone was concerned about teeth.
Mrs. Mary Tidwell, 185 S. Glassell St., brought a picture of that time to the Orange Daily News last week in a yellowing pages of the Los Angeles Examiner dated Feb. 16, 1909.
The newspaper today is good for a lot of laughs. It also makes those familiar with Los Angeles in its metropolitan state marvel that it could have come so far in population and its implications in only 54 years.
A fellow by the name of Painless Parker had the city agog in 1909 with something he called painless dentistry. His ad, which was set up to look like an article, was headlined "Teeth by the Ton" and promised "Not groans, but grins".
He promised to demonstrate in the open air before admiring throngs, with interesting programs of music and song.

Scenes of Early Days
LOUISE METEER
The Fairfax had just writwords for the waltz, "The
widow," folks were investthe famous Montezuma
real, folks in Los Angeles
using chickens and tureveryone was concerned
with.
Mary Tidwell, 185 S. Glasbrought a picture of that
the Orange Daily News
in a yellowing pages of
Angeles Examiner dated
1909.
Newspaper, today is good
of laughs. It also makes
mamiliar with Los Angeles
metropolitan state marvel
could have come so far in
and its implications in
years.
Now by the name of Painker had the city agog in
n something he called
dentistry. His ad, which
up to look like an article,
lined "Teeth by the Ton"
imvised "Not groans, but
admised to demonstrate in
an air before admiring
with interesting promusic and song.
According to a local dentist who practiced in that day it was hard to tell whether the patient suffered or not, since they always struck up the band, loud and long, about the time that Painless Parker pulled the tooth.
There is little doubt that whoever wrote the ads was a poet at heart; since he promised that 'on the stream of life your toothe troubles are easily crossed when you get a bridge from Painless Parker.'
The writer also said, "Some people hope for a beautiful crown in the hereafter but Parker’s patients wear them all through life."
Patent medicine advertising took up a large portion of the newspaper. One self-styled “lead-ing specialist” who treated men only promised reasonable fees which had to be paid only when cured; no charges for medicine, free cure of simple cases.
Modern women with their automatic washers and driers would shudder to see the picture of a housewife of 1909 with the washing machine of her day. It was little more than a tub on legs with a hand operated plunger.
Milady was promised that this was a woman's washing machine for which neither man nor motor was required.
Remember the Montezuma mine in Colorado? Investors were told that they could make $1.00 or more for every dime invested. The facts were personally guaranteed by E. S. Kellogg. You could ven have a free sack of the ore with an illustrated book if you were interested.
Perhaps the most keenly different aspect of the paper and the times is to be found in a three column question and answer column called "In the Poultry Yard." Edited by Mrs. A. Basley, it offered remedies for chickens and turkeys suffering from everything from apoplexy and moulting to avordupois.
Culture didn't suffer for all that. Franz Lehar had made the Merry Widow the season's hit. And Beatrice Fairfax, the Examiner's famous Advice to the Love-lorn editor, wrote words for the waltz of the musicale's title.
It is on a nostalgic note that we read, "Cut out the music and paste it on a cardboard and with cost you will be the possessor of a piece of music that would otherwise have cost you 25 cents and that would be merely the music, not the words.
"It is music, that will sing me self into the heads of both your and old. Try it on the piano or your home.
"To the boys and girls of yesteryday it brings memories of dindrawing rooms on summer evenings when someone played safton the piano and two happy young things waltzed dreamily and sently together and dreamed that they had found the road to paadise.
And Beatrice Fairfax, bacthere in her time, non-clairvoyaand optimistic, ended, "To the boys, and girls of today the pictures are all of the future."
