NEIGHBORS TO HEAR MISS TALLEY SING Kansas City Coneert to Es- tablish Gratitude Fund for Others Deserving. By Concolidated Press. NSAS CITY. September 18.— Successfully started on a $150,000-a- vear career as a grand opera singer, Marion Talley, 19-year-old daughter of a $150-a-month telegraph operator, is coming back to her Kansas City home with a double aim. She plans. first. to go to the back yard of the Talley home, on a modest Kansas City street, and dig up a lit- tle hox in which lies buried one of three canaries she brought to this country from Europe. The = canary will have a better hurial, one that will express fittingly the love the mistress held for her feathered songbird. There will be a handsome box and a marker. The other and main undertaking of the voung opera star s to establish a fund to aid young persons of talent, Just as she was alded when Kansas City citizens began to recognize in her @ future opera. star. $10,000 Proceeds Expected. Marion Talley will give one con- the night of September a contract. Two give one under her own auspices, and the proceeds. expected to be more than $10.000. will go into a fund to help young people study voice, music or art. For gratitude fills the heart of the {ansas City girl who last May be- came world famous overnight witth a. #uccessful premiere with the Metro- politan Opera Co. in ¢ York Three years ago Miss Tal! ¥ » high school girl and choir sing was beneficiary of a concert in which she appeared in_the Kansas City con- vention hall. Ten thousand dollars was raised hy that concert, and she went to Europe for two vears of study that enabled her to attain success as & singer. The $10,000 cannot be paid back to those who bought tickets to that con- cert. No one wants the money back. But Marion Talley considers it a debt Just the same. So into the fund for Young musicians and artists she wiil pour the $10,000 next week. The girl's thoughts of her canary are characteristic of the simplicity of her life. For once, public acclaim has not turned the head of a young per- *on Not Interested in Luxuries. Plans for her concert gowns and maost of her dresses are left to an older sister. Motor . furs and other Juxuries hold no attraction for her. Jer hair is not bobbed. and she likes riding on a street car better than in a taxicab.

LONDON, September. 18.—Search for two missing chemical elements lately reported discovered in Germany may have to be continued. From I sia comes word that a careful check- up on the elements rhenium and masurium fails to substantiate recent investigations. In June, 1925, Prof. Waiter Noddack of the University of Berlin, assisted by Ida Tacks and Otto Berg, reported that he found the characteristic X-ray spectra of the missing elements, num- bered 75 and 43 in the periodic tables, in platinum ores from the Ural Moun- tains. Dr. 0. Zvjaginstsev of the Platinum Institute of the Russian Academy of | Sciences. has just repeated the experi- ments of Prof. Noddack. using rare metals from the same source, and_has fajled to find the element No. 75 at all and considers the presence of the| still rarer element No. 43 unlikely.” “The platinum w fcally and the X-ray graphs of the final pr fully measured.” Dr. “extremely pectrum photo. ts were care- Zvjaginstsev has treated chem- | | | nal, Nature. “No. 75 would have been easily detected if it were present in the native platinum in quantities pointed out by Prof. Noddack, or even 10 or 100 times less than that. As a matter of fact, the spectrum photo- sraphs obtained prove with certainty the absence of the element in native platinum in a quantiiy exceeding 0003 per cent.’| The discovery of this element, which is a close relative of the well known metal manganese, has also been d that they had found it asso- ted with manganese. SUICIDES RATED HIGH. Brains Four Ounces Heavier Than Those of Other People. VIENNA, September 2 (Correspond- ence).—Brains of the average suicide are about four ounces heavier than the brains of other people, according to the findings of Dr. Pape and Dr. Kopelsky, who have weighed brains of 833 persons. None of the brains | of the suicides could be classed as lx:ht weight. They found that the brain of boys and girls are heavier than those of grown-ups. Of the 833 brains weighed, the average brain of || males is said to weight about 44 ounces, and the brain of females about 401, ounces. 2 TErE Smart women dressers of Paris are sporting pockets, the inside of which Canton, China's Open Door.
