5 SN I B e (LARA JACDBO N GRAND OPERA NOW Former Ml Worker of Law romce, Mass, Makes Debat New York, Nov. 9 M—In floods of warm, amber spotlight, with “Braves” ringing in her ears, Clara Jacobo, once a mill worker in Law- rence, Mass, stepped up last night into “her world,” that golden world toward which she had struggled for rearly 156 years—the atage of the Metropolitan Opera House. She made her debut there, in “Il Trovatore,” whose tuneful arias she could sing at an age when most children are learning kindergarten dities. And the demonstration that followed, after she had sung with Giovanni Martinelli the old familiar “Miserere"—which she used to sing all by herself as a child, both so- prano and tenor—could have left no doubt in the minds of her old friends from Lawrence that she was a success. Father Listens From an inconspicuous seat in the gallery, a sturdy little old man, with quick brown eyes and dropping grey mustachios, listened intently to every note uttered by the new dra- matie soprano of the Metropolitan Opera company, leaning far forward to watch her as she came out again ly, of course, to the unquestioned | loyalty and veneration which the im- | perial house still claims. For mer-| chants, innkeepers, entertainers, and tens of thousands of workers, for all the classes who profit from the movement and assemblage of great masses of people, there is good bus- iness. Donations Expected There is also the wide distribution of imperial gifts and honors. The emperor this year was expected per- sonally to make donations to various forms of philanthropy totalling 15, 000,000 yen. The beneficiaries would include hospitals, schools, social service organizations and direct re- I lief to the poor. Besides there will ba the distribution of approximately 475,000 “old age” cups to all sub- | jects of the empire of 80 years or over. An effort is made to see that | no subject who has deserved well of 'his sovereign is forgotten at this | time. For the dignitarles of the land i there will be new decorations, higher ' court ranks, promotion in the grades of the titled nobility. Decorations will not be confined to Japanese, for forelgn diplomats and residents in Japan also will be included in the honor lists, as well as a few non- Japanese living abroad. No advance estimate of the extent of such honors is available, @s they are a closely guarded secret until announced by | the emperor. 1 i Amnesty Also | TImperial benevolence is not con- fined to those who have deserved well of their ruler.

Angelo Jacobo, born in Naples, once a grocer in Lawrence and now a comber in & woolen mill, forgot in those glowing moments on the stage of the Metropolitan Opera House last night, all the English he had ever known. He could speak only Italian—and not much of that. Dr. N. F. De Cesare, childhood friend of Clara Jacobo, who had come down from Lawrence in n delegation hcaded by Mayor and Mrs. Michael A. Landers, tried to ex- plain how he felt. “He took that seat away up In the gallery,” Dr. De Cesare said, “because he was afraid he might get emotional—perhaps shed a few tears —and he didn't want to disturb those around him.
