B. Edmon- son of the School of Education be- lieves. Few such estimates take into { account native ability which must be | present for success in the business world. "College education has a number of unreckoned values," he declared. "A minimum amount of college work is prerequisite to professional- training. Further, higher education fits a man for leadership in his community by making him certain of hs own abili-- ties; he has no inferiority complex by the time he has been granted a .d egree. "But the degree is often misunder- stood," Professor Edmonson said, "to constitute a good in itself; it is look- ed upon as proof that certain quali- ties are unnecessary to its holder. Oi the contrary, stability, industry, and friendliness are among the factors which go to make the educated as, well, as the uneducated men success- ful. Education simply increases those capacities which are already present: it cannot capitalize for the individual something that he has not."

'Thurlsday EeOt MARIA ,JEIRITZA, the renowned Viennese operatic, coloratura soprano, startled the American concert going public two years ago when she made her New York debut with the Metropolitan Opera Company. As often as she appears, and her schedule is heavy, this great music house is packed to capacity and she is the recipient of a thunderous ovation. Her name and reputation have spread like magic and laymen as well as music lovers have spared no pains in their efforts to hear and see this mrvelous woman. The limited number of concert engagements which she is able to accept just before the opera season opens are looked upon as among the season's most important artistic events.

It was only a few years ago that these two young American pianists burst upon the American concert going public in a series of recitals for two pianos, a field which had hitherto received relatively little attention. They have made several tours of the principal cities of the United States, the success of which was so pronounced that they were called upon to tour Great Britain and continental Europe as well as Australia 1 laud other Pacific countries.
