TRUMBULL.

The cantata, "a Pillar of Fire. post
poned on account of storm, was rendered
at the Congregational church, Monday
evening. A home chorus of 20 voices
was assisted by the following artists
from Bridgeport Miss Jessie G. Hawley,
soprano; Miss Lucy M. Hawley, alto;
Charles Hardwick, tenor George SHAW
ley, bass. Charles S. Plumb presided
at the organ and W. S. Plumb at the
piano. Although trial effort, it was
highly successful and all who took part
are to be congratulated 1t was not mu-
sicale, but religious feast to those who
love sacred music. Entertainment of
such a character should be encouraged
by every Christian who loves the Word
of God and recognizes the power of mu-
sic to to convey its truth. The good
work done by the home chorus suggests
the formation of choral society at an
early date for the careful study of SINH
lar music. Why cannot home talent un-
dertake, if necessary, other cantatas or
easy oratorios. There are excellent
voices that, with confidence and train
ing, aided by small chorus, would give
us many another pleasant evening. Such
work would be invaluable to the cul-
ture and experience of those taking part.
If we cannot have the valuable assist
ance of outside help, because of the un-
certainty of attendance, let us do the
next best thing, but continue to do in
this direction. After the singing, from
until 80, there was collation. for the
singers, served in the ladies' parlor, con-
sisting of sandwiches. cake, straWber-
ries, ice cream, etc. The table looked
nicely in its decoration of roses. The
stage was prettily trimmed with potted
plants, cut flowers and ferns.
The ladies' aid society will meet in the
basement of the church, Friday after
noon. Ice cream and cake will be serv-
ed from to p N. A good time is ex-
pected and all ladies and gentlemen,
young and old, are invited.
