EDITORS APPEAI-0ne Of the pleas
ATTEST musical entertainments which it has
been my pleasure to attend this year, was
given on Wednesday night November third,
at The rooms OF the Memphis club. The par
Elephants were some of our very best VOcaiiSts
and instrumental performers, with Mr.. Emile
Levy as musical director. Mr.. Levy pro-
grammes generally are well chosen, and show
good taste combined with Knowledge of
the task Incumbent upon musician, whose
aim should ever be, while cJdeavoring to
please his audience, to constantly bring forth
such selections and productions as wilt verify
the directors claims as true artist. Mss
Florence Hughes and Mr.. Levy played a beau
tiful duo from IL IrOvdtOTe on the piano, and
by the finished r, nditiOn prepared the audi
ence for the splendid treat awaiting them
during the evening. Mrs. Mansford followed
with very nice vocal solo, Come Back 10 ="
