THE CHORAL sOCIETY's REHEARsAl


First Public Appearance and an Excellent
Programme-A Large and Delighted
Audience.
The Choral Society gave their first public
rehearsal in the lecture room of the First
Presbyterian Church last evening, the pro-
gramme furnished being carefully selected
and equally creditably presented. The
society is a new organization, and when the
youth of most of the members is taken into
consideration, their efforts deserve especial
commendation. Save a slight and per-
fectly natural embarrassment, which was
overcome as the evening went on, the
different numbers were well filled, and
deservedly encored. "Nearer My God to
Thee" by Miss Katie Currinder, was re-
peated by request, and undoubtedly the
finest selection was Sullivan's, "The Way is
Long and Dreary." A large audience was
present and the programme in full was as
follows
Chorus-"Festival Hymn Buck.
Mixed Quartette-'Undert the Ice" Miss Ida
Wiltbanks Mrs. Rebman, Messrs. Walters ana
We'll.
Chorus-"Lovc in May" Taylor.
