MARY TRUSTS, TO "STARS'" FORHUSBAND Noted Opera Singer, Who Is to Appear Here, Has No Hesitancy in Expressing Opinions.

According; to stars, Mary Garden Is going to be married In 1924. At least the noted prima donna, who arrived in Los Angeles a few days ago on her to this, city for a concert, told assembled newspaper folk In her luxurious suite at the Baltimore hotel there thai all the fortune tellers, soothsayers, had been unanimous on that date. However, Mary has other tdeaa which she discusses freely; One ot them Is that she li not going toleap Into Another is: Walking add golfing are stupid exercises. Again: She just loves onion soup nad Russia. And there'll always be" lots of war and no League ot Nations to stop it.

This may be interpreted as matrimonial All of which may seem rather jumbled, but It gives a very good cross section of one halt hour's conversation with the famous singer who refuses to get old or to stay fat. There was a time when Mary" Garden weighed 166 pounds. She would not admit It then, but said lecently that her little private war on "stoutness" had been a great success. The "new" Mary Garden who will be seen and heard at the new fJhrlne Mosque next Saturday night, 'November 10, as the first number of a $15,000 musical course ot world famous artists being brought hert this year by the Southwest Missouri State Teachers college, boasts that she Is only. 126 pounds "light." She Is most vivacious In declaring her likes and dislikes and praising her chief anti fat weapon blue pills.

i These pills, If they have he same effect generally as in the case of the opera singer, will be In worldwide demand among women, when placed on the market next year. The formula la a Secret. But with "pills" und two meals a flay and no late night eating, Mary Garden succeeded In "losing" no less than forty pounds, a considerably accomplishment. a any of ths foehionable stouts will admit. But If Miss Garden does marry It will be a man of the out of doors, perhaps a western rancher.

Mary says her life ha been one I long aerlee of flights, and she re finis this continuous action as ths wi reson why she still can afford tc Laugh at love and years.
