LAUDER, SIR HARRY, Comedian (Law’-der)
Sir Harry Lauder began life as a miner. He lightened the labors of his fellows by singing to them, at odd times, his now world-famous songs of humor and sentiment. He sought the music-halls of London; at first was received coldly, but in a short while was singing at three or four every night, being whirled from one to the other in taxicabs. It has been said of him that in national crises, he possibly did nore than any single individual to raise the spirits of London; his appearance anywhere was the : signal for laughter and cheers. The World War, which cy brought him the loss of his only son, brought also the : honor of knighthood. His contracts with the Victor, made . for a long term of years, have brought forth some of the e best humorous records in any language of humankind.

LAURI-VOLPI, GIACOMO, Tenor (Loh-ree Vohl’-pee)
Lauri-Volpi’s career has been a colorful one. It includes such romantic episodes as his brilliant warrecord, which included four years of duty on three Italian fronts; his reluctant decision, while a law student at the University of Rome, to make singing, instead of law, his vocation; his début, straight from the studio, on one of Italy’s most important operatic stages,—the Costanzi, at Rome; his summons from no less a personage than Arturo Toscanini, to sing “The Duke” in Rigoletto at La Scala, and finally, his début at the foremost opera house in the world—the Metropolitan—in this same important rdle.
Lauri-Volpi was the beloved pupil of the famous “Papa” Cotogni, teacher of De Luca and Ruffo—and of Maestro Rosati, mentor of that brilliant tenor, Beniamino Gigli. Gifted with a voice of superb clarity, brilliance and rich tonal quality, Lauri-Volpi has in his five years with the Metropolitan achieved a place among its first tenors.
