MlSh Kendall and Douglass.
From the very well performed duet by
Misses Way and Hall, to the equally pleasing
one by Misses Kendall and Douglass, which
opened and closed the entertainment respeC-
lively, the entertainers and. entertained were
en- rapport, and hearty testimonials OF pleas
urG greeted each performer. The essay on
Reality BY Miss Wharry, OF Bridgeport,
was very good. Miss Halls rendition Of the
description Of tic Famine, from LOnglelloWs
"HiAwatha," compared very iavOrably with
the ordinary conception, and impressed the
discriminating auditor that Miss Hail Is a
thinker, as well Us reader, and has the
courage TO read as she conceiyes to be proper,
instead Of servilely initiating Others who have
won public applause. Her clear, descriptive
reading was very grateful to the ears OF an
admifer Of the great poets musical lines.
Miss Ways solo was altogether deserving
OF the applause 1t provoked. The following
essay or Order" by Miss Lukens, was q
thoughtful and we'll wOrded composition,
and reflected credit upon The writer as well
rs upon the school. Miss Halls essay was
also thoughtful one, and was couched in
graceful terms, which challenged admira
ton. Miss Dougiass's solo, coming between
two meritorious essays, was itself meritorl'
Gus performance, both the selection and the
singing being pleasing.
Miss Frazier took for her subject topit
which Is traught with much interest to the
general public, and handled 1t IN the mos
entertaining manner. Miss HornbroOk'
recitation was a difficult one, but she sur
priSed her auditors by the ease and force
with which she delivered 1t. Her style wa
very dramatic, as the piece requires.
The vocal Duet by Miss Way and Prof
Hartley Thompson was one OF the most
pleasing musical numbers on the pro.
gramme, and Prof. ThOmpson's ballad
MARY Of Argyle" later In the programme
was the musical feature Of the evening" Prof.
Thompson is the musical preCeptOr Of the
College, a fact which should attract to II
numbers OF young ladies' who wish tie nd
vantages OF such teacher with the facilities
OF such school.
Miss Minnie Walters essay, Entering
Port," was spoken OF in terms OF the greatest
delight by all, both the composition and the
delivery attracting attention; and the follow
] ing solo was given with the delicAcy Of
touch and general brllliancy Of execution
for which Miss Cockayno has won reputa
ton.
Miss Mary Heyman again contributed
largely to the pleasure OF the audience By
the spirit with which sha Rad hpr sAIpptiON
She reflects considerable credit upon hel
teachers, as well as exhibits rare natura
capacity TO improve upon instruction.
The piano solo Of Miss Kendall was artis
ticalIy and spiritcdly played.
Miss Wiley's essay attracted more than or

Miss Faults class essay also won for her 9
nlgn place in the admiration OF the audience
II IS q difficult task to discharge pleaSingiy
and when we say that she did this We accord
her high praise. Ithal one sad portion, the
reference to the death OF Miss Jennie Kraus
who was beloved member OF the class priol
TO her death last January. As the touching
reference to her was read, many n tear,
dimmed eye was cast in the direction OF hel
vacant chair, draped in mourning.
The hall was beautifully decorated for the
occasion, and the class "r0ster" was neatly
enrolled upon the blackboard, with thGil
motto, "Sa6io"
