When you have mentioned Galli-Curci, Tetrazzini, Barrientos, and Frieda Hempel the last is both lyric and coloratura you have named all the great ones who are known to us here in America. There are a couple of younger artists, Garrison and Macbeth, who are rapidly gaining the experience which will one day place them in the charmed circle. Consider for an instant the three first named singers.
There were times when Molly Brandeis herself could not resist the spell of his tongue. No one knew where Aloysius got his information. He had news that Winnebago's two daily papers never could get, and wouldn't have dared to print if they had. "Did you hear about Myrtle Krieger," he would begin, "that's marryin' the Hempel boy next month? The one in the bank.
An' yet, blow me if I wouldn't 'a bin glad if one o' my two 'ad 'ad spunk enough to join 'em," at this Polly could not refrain from saying pitifully: "Oh, Mr. Ocock, do you really MEAN that?" For both Purdy and brother Ned were in the rebel band, and Polly's heart was heavy because of them. "Can't you see my brother anywhere?" she asked Hempel, who held an old spyglass to his eyes.
"Oh, no!" Tony objected even in jest to such desecration. "Oh, yes," smiled her hostess. "Max Hempel is a brutally frank person. He never spares one the truth, even the disagreeable truth. He has had his eye out for a new ingénue for a long time. Ingénues do get old at least older you know." "Not you," denied Tony. "Even I, in time. I grant you not yet.

At length he blurted out: "I was wondering, ma'am ahem! Miss Turnham if, since it is an agreeable h'evening, you would care to take a walk to that 'ill I told you of?" "Me take a walk? La, no! Whatever put such an idea as that into your head?" cried Sarah; and tatted and tatted, keeping time with a pretty little foot. "I thought per'aps ..." said Hempel meekly. "I didn't make your thoughts, Mr.
Frieda Hempel says: "I do about two hours or more, though not all of this for technic. I approve of a good deal of technical study, taken in small doses of ten to fifteen minutes at a time. Technic is a means to an end, more in the art of song than in almost any other form of art. Technic is the background of expressive singing." Sophie Braslau is an incessant worker, "at least six hours a day.
Hempel," retorted Sarah, laying stress on the aspirate. "Oh no, ma'am. I 'ope I didn't presume to suggest such a thing"; and with a hangdog air Hempel prepared to slink away. "Well, well!" said Sarah double quick; and ceasing to jerk her crochet-needle in and out, she nimbly rolled up her ball of thread.
