"She 'has been invited to go to New York in the Fall, as a prospective can didate for operatic laurels. For years the people of Atlanta have known Mrs. Pearson and have heard her beautiful and powerful vcice in church singing at benefits of all kinds, and in private residences where she sings for her friends. "Mrs. Pearson attracted the atten tion of the grand opera singers when she appeared in concert at the Geor gian Terrace in aid of the Georgian Titanic relief fund. Most of the stars of the operatic singing world were in the audience. They all expressed amazement and delight with her voice and after the concert crowded around her " 'Yours is a magnificent voice,' some said. 'It is vocal velvet,' others.. 'It is grand,' said still another group, and so on. "Finally Mr. William J. Guard, one of Director Gatti-Casazza's most trust ed associates, invited Mrs. Pearson to go to New York in the Fall, when the director of the opera returns from Eu rope and have her voice tried. "Mrs. Pearson has not yet decided if she will do this. She has been so long identified with life in Atlanta that the inducement would have to be large to appeal to her. But as Mrs. Pear eon plans to be in New York in the Fall she will probably meet the great est director of opera in the world and her future, career will then be decided upon. ' "Mrs. Pearson is a beautiful woman, of fine personality. Her voice is rich, powerful and appealing. She Is now in the choir of the Second Baptist church and is the highest salaried church singer in the South.
