Perhaps, but in the case of a girl starting her operatic career I am not so certain. To be identified with anything second-rate can easily be a handicap handi-cap In one's career and, had I started at the Lirico, it mdght have been years before I reached La Scala and the Metropolitan. Incidentally I did not sing in "Mignon" until I had been In New York several years. "Mignon" is nearly seventy -years old, having been produced tn Paris in 1866. It was a huge success in the beginning and its popularity has never waned. Even where operatic performances perform-ances are unknown everybody knows the brilliant overture; everybody knows and loves the air "Knowest Thou the Land?" which Mignon sings in the first act; and what coloratura soprano, from Christine Nilsson and Adelina Palti down to our own beloved Lily Pons, has not rejoiced in the Polonaise which Madame Pons sings in the second act? . Story of the Opera Thomas, the composer, was a great figure, in French music during dur-ing the last half of .the nineteenth century and he wrote a score of Operas, besides much music in other1 forms, but "Mignon was his only success. And ttuit was a great gift to a grateful world which has never tired of it Its stery is based distantly on episodes in Goethe's 'sentimental and romantic masterpiece "Wil-helm "Wil-helm Melster."

You who are listening, even 11 you cannot see the stage, will gel great pleasure from the music. Don't fail to hear the brilliant overture and in the first act hoi only is the lovely "Connais-tu It Pays?" when Mignon tells of hei childhood memories of a beauti ful sunny land but there is a fini air for Mr: Schipa, an appealini one for Mr. Rothier as well as at tractive choruses and- concerted music The Polonaise "1 Am Titanla-which Titanla-which Madame Pons sings so man veloiisly, comes toward the end' oi the second act.
