8Several changes and additions have been made in the faculty of the School of Fine Arts at the University of Kansas according to announcement made recently by Dean Swarthout. Alice Moncrieff, contralto, replaces Minna Dorn. Mrs. Moncrieff comes from the Illinois Woman's College, Jacksonville, Ill., where, for the past two years, she has been head of the voice department. She has had extensive concert and oratorio work in the East and unusual success as a teacher. Kathryn Sutherlin, soprano, for the past four seasons a member of the Chicago Civic Opera Company and this summer a member of the Summer Opera Company at the Zoo Park, Cincinnati, replaces Louise Miller, who has been granted a year's leave of absence for advanced study in New York City. Ella Bear, pianist, a student of Godowsky and Isadore Philipp, and for the past few years a teacher in piano at the Drake University, Des Moines, Iowa, comes to take the place of Fanny May Ross, who will spend the year in advanced study at New York City on leave of absence. Lee Greene, pianist and organist, replaces Stewart Dickson. Helen Marcell is added to the faculty to take charge of classes in sight singing and ear training and students in organ. Helen Lindsey is added to the piano faculty. Enrollment in the School of Fine Arts for the coming year promises to be an unusually heavy one.

12Distinguished Guests at Hotel Majestic
14Preparations for the season are being pushed ahead at the Hotel Majestic, and the president, Copeland Townsend, anticipates a considerable accession to the already large list of distinguished musical, theatrical, literary and artistic guests. Improvements, calculated to add considerably to the accommodations and attractiveness of the house, are approaching completion, these including two new restaurants on the main floor. The elaborate decorations are in the hands of Signor Buccini, who is also redecorating the Glow Room and Ball Room. The Majestic String Ensemble, so well-known to radio fans, will again be directed by Theodore, Captain Jerome Hart, who has recently been on a tour of Europe, the British Isles and Canada on behalf of the management, takes up the position of hospitality officer.
16Among recent guests at the Majestic are the following: Clara Clemens Gabrilowitsch; Lucretia Goddard, the new soprano of the San Carlo Opera Company, and her singing teacher, Mme. Vinello Johnson; Ilse Marvenga, prima donna of The Student Prince Company; Florence French Lester, of Chicago; Betty Blythe and Greta Nissen, film actresses, and Paul Scardon, motion picture director; M. J. Gourland, Russian author and motion picture producer; Daviri Kawasaki and Jean Knott, writers.

23Frieda Hempel Announces Return to Opera one of two readings
25Beaming and radiant, fresh from a two-weeks' vacation on a real Bavarian farm, Frieda Hempel, soprano, returned to Paris recently and announced on her arrival that she would return to opera in Europe following her activities in America this season. one of two readings
27"I'm going to sing in opera again—and in Europe," stated the singer to a reporter. "I've been longing to do it and unless plans miscarry I'll return from my concert work in America next May for operatic engagements in Paris, Berlin and other European centres. It has been five years since I sang in opera in America and eight years since my last operatic performance in Europe. one of two readings
29"But I'm enjoying life immensely and find it full of good things," continued the soprano. "My summer has been the most pleasant and what fun on that Bavarian farm. No automobiles, no noise—nothing but peace and contentment. I went right out in the fields and stayed there all day, having a regular picnic of a time. Instead of riding in a limousine I settled down on the straw in an ox-cart and turned the clock back a hundred years without even thinking of Jenny Lind or anybody else, but just being like Penrod."
31The singer was asked her mission in Paris.
33"Oh, I must buy some new gowns—not that I used mine on the farm because there I wore glorious calico—and then I am going to fly to Berlin to see my eighty-two year old father, after which I return to America to begin my tour."
